- Replaces: mus/misc/XModule30.lha
-
-
- XModule release 3.4.
-
- What is XModule?
- ================
-
- A music module editor, converter, optimizer and processor featuring
- a nice multiwindow, font sensitive GUI, ARexx port, AmigaGuide docs,
- DataTypes support, transparent XPK and LhA decrunching and much more.
-
-
- o Module Conversion
- -----------------
-
- XModule reads and writes modules in these formats:
-
- - Sound/Noise/ProTracker
- - StarTrekker
- - TakeTracker (1-32 channels)
- - ScreamTracker (up to 16 channels)
- - Oktalyzer (4-8 channels)
- - MED
- - OctaMED (MMD1 only)
- - MIDI files
-
-
- o Module Optimization
- -------------------
-
- XModule can optimize modules by removing all unused or duplicate
- patterns and instruments. Additionally XModule can optimize
- instruments which have long tails made of zeroes or which extend
- beyond the loop part.
-
-
- o Module Processing
- -----------------
-
- XModule can process modules in several powerful ways. For
- instance, you can `join' two modules together, or you can `merge'
- two modules so that they will be played at the same time.
- Instruments can be remapped to remove all the empty slots between
- them.
-
-
- o Pattern Editor
- --------------
-
- As of version 3.2, XModule features a powerful BOOPSI pattern
- editor in a resizable window. Simple editing functions are
- provided. More powerful features will come in a later release.
-
-
- o 32 Channels, 14-bit Player.
- ---------------------------
-
- A replayer for XModule is still under development and will be
- based on Jarno Paanen's PS3M as well as Peter Kunath's DeliTracker
- replayers. When this player will be done, XModule will become a
- full music editor and I will probably rename it to `XTracker'.
-
-
- Main changes from release 3.0 to release 3.4:
- =============================================
-
- ADD: Full featured Pattern Editor!!! Another big step towards a
- complete n-channels music editor...
-
- ADD: New loader for ScreamTracker 3.01! Conversion is not very good,
- but at least it works.
-
- ADD: Supports loading and saving TakeTracker with up to 32 channels.
-
- ADD: Locale support. There is only an italian catalog yet, translated
- by my friend Steven Cantini. If you want more translations, please
- do them yourself and return the .ct files to me! :-)
-
- ADD: Added support for MMD1 (OctaMED) modules. Improved MED loader and
- saver.
-
- ADD: Context sensitive help in all windows: pressing HELP now brings up
- help on the active window.
-
- FIX: Hopefully, all reported bugs have been fixed.
