See the bottom of this page to see which players that has been removed
as of version 2.11 of APlayer.
Players:
Activision Pro: This player is the same as Martin Walker player. You can
get some modules from old Activision games. There can be
some trouble on faster machines, because the player
makes CPU loops. The player is inside the module, so
there isn't much to do about it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ArtOfNoise: This player can play both 4 and 8 channels modules. It
have some great effect. It uses noteplayer to play the
modules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
DeliCustom: Yes, that's right. Now is APlayer able to play
Delitrackers custom modules. Currently there is not
support of all Delitrackers global functions or tags,
only a few. The modules I have, work just fine, but if
you have a module that doesn't work, please send it to
me. You can not pack these modules, because the player
has to load them as object files.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Delta10: The older Delta modules is played with this. And it
supports noteplayers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Delta20: Player is inside the module. It have some nice sound
effect.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
DigiBooster: Plays modules from the new protracker clone DigiBooster.
This includes both 4/8 channels and cia timing. It plays
modules from DigiBooster 1.0 - 1.5
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
DigitalMugician: Nice player with some cool sound effects. The program is
not the most system friendly I have seen.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
DSS: When you buy the DSS sampler, you will get a music and
sampler program. The music program will save modules in
this format, so with this player you are able to play
these type of modules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
FastTracker: I don't know much about this player. It's a 6 and 8
channels ProTracker player. It can do the same as the
ProTracker player, which means that it has the same
commands etc. This player uses a NotePlayer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
FastTracker20: This player can play the new format on the PC, the *.XM
modules. The original music program on the PC is made by
Triton. This player is coded by Jarno Paananen and it
uses a NotePlayer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fred: There is a lot of some nice fred tunes on aminet, some
of them by Jogeir. There is a player inside the modules,
but I have ripped one of them and added some features.
It will ofcourse use the player inside the module if
it's not the same as the one I know. Currently I support
2 different players, which only differs slightly.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Future13: This is probably the most used type of modules in
intros, because of the short module size. It uses a
noteplayer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Future14: This is the newer version of Future Composer. It can now
handle different wavetables. It uses a noteplayer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hippel: Argghh, this is one of the hard ones. There is a player
inside each module, but they are all different.
If you get a Hippel module this player can't recognize
please mail it to us if you want APlayer to be able to
play it in the future..
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
IFF-8SVX: This player can play the IFF-8SVX sample format. It is
the most used format on the Amiga. It can play any size
of samples by loading a little bit at the time. This
means it uses low memory while running. It can also
handle stereo samples and IFF-crunched (Fibonnaci)
samples, in both mono and stereo. It uses a noteplayer.
See how to configure this player.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
IFF-AIFF: This format is used on the Macintosh. This player can
play both 8 and 16 bit samples in both mono and stereo.
16 bit samples will be converted to 8 bit realtime while
playing. It uses a noteplayer.
See how to configure this player.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
IFF-SMUS: This is a very old music format. The format is designed
to use with midi. This player will only play upto the 4
first priority voices.
See how to configure this player.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
InStereo20: Plays the newer InStereo2.0 modules using noteplayers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
JamCracker: Is not the most used format, but there is some nice
tunes available made by Dr. Awesome. It uses a
noteplayer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
JCBrooke: Nothing to say about this player.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MarkCooksey: Nothing to say about this player.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MarkII: Nothing to say about this player, except that the main
replay routine is placed in each module.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MED: This player has one of the biggest sources I have ever
seen (about 80Kb). This player will play 4 voices MED
modules and can handle MMD0, MMD1 and MMD2 module types.
Please note that if you want to play MED modules
containing synth samples, do NOT use the fastmem
noteplayer, since it will skip all synth sounds. Use
instead the paula noteplayer.
This Player uses a Noteplayer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MON: Maniacs of Noise have created this player. The player is
inside the modules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MultiTracker: This tracker is a 1-32 channels ProTracker player. The
file format is not the same as in normal mod files. This
player uses a NotePlayer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MusicAss: This format has very short modules with the player
inside the modules. It will of course only use the
player inside the module if it is not the same as the
ripped one. Now it uses noteplayers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NoisePacker20: This format is a packed NoiseTracker format written by
Twins of Phenomena.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NoisePacker30: Is a newer version of the NoiseTracker packer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NoiseTracker: Before ProTracker this format was the most used. I use
the same player as in the ProTracker player, but it
can't change the CIA tempo and it doesn't have any E
commands except for the filter command. See the
ProTracker description for more information. This player
uses a NotePlayer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
OctaMed: This player is almost the same as the MED player, except
that it play 5-8 voices modules.
This player uses a Noteplayer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oktalyzer: A very old 8 voices format. It now uses a NotePlayer to
mix the channels. This player uses a Noteplayer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ProTracker: This format is probably the most known format ever on
the Amiga. I use the ProTracker version 1.1b player
written by Lars "Zap" Hamre/Amiga Freelancers. I have
fixed a lot of bugs (see the history :) and I have also
optimized it so it won't use so much CPU time as the
original player does. The main optimizing is that I've
changed all the patterns note periods to index numbers
in the period tables. This removed the routine which
searched for the period in the period tables to get the
index in the finetunes period tables. This player uses
a NotePlayer to play the notes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
PumaTracker: I don't know anything about this player. I only have a
few modules of this type.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
QuadraComposer: Got the player from the author, Bo Lincoln. Supports CIA
and all commands without crashing like in other players.
It also uses a noteplayer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
RIFF-WAVE: This format is used on the PC. It can play both 8 and 16
bit samples in mono or stereo. If the sample is too big,
it will be loaded in parts.
This player uses a Noteplayer.
See how to configure this player.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
RonKlaren: This player will play EaglePlayer Ron Klaren modules.
This is the only type of module which cannot be crunched
because the files are loaded as object files.
There can be some problems on A4000.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ScreamTracker30: This module format is probably one of the most used on
the PC. This player will play that format. Jarno
Paananen has coded the original player. I have modified
it a little bit, so it won't try to play adlib samples
There will be silence instead of some crap sound. It
also uses a noteplayer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
SID: This play has to use the playsid.library to run. It can
play all kinds of C64 songs by emulating the CPU and SID
in the C64.
See how to configure this player.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
SidMon10: Player is inside the module. I have ripped the player
and added a few features. If the player isn't the same
as the player inside the module, the inside player will
be used instead.

inside the module anymore, and it uses Noteplayers.

StarTrekker4: This player will play the normal 4 voices StarTrekker
modules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
StarTrekker4AM: This player will play 4 voices StarTrekker modules with
AM sounds. It needs the extra .nt file to the module.

Syntracker: Plays Syntracker modules. Includes support for nearly
all functions in APlayer, including Noteplayer support.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

FastTracker player, except that there is another test
routine. This player supports 1 to 32 channels modules

created by Chris Hülsbeck.
