- Welcome to final-sales preview of ** ART OF NOISE **.
-
- What the heck is AON ? I bet you already might have noticed,
-
- that this program is a kind of music tracker. But it is not
-
- yet ANOTHER tracker (like the 1001 protracker clones out there)
-
- but a real NEW tracker, of course completely new coded (no
-
- protracker source used!!). I tried to improve the old protracker
-
- format (which is surely antiquated already since ages..) and to
-
- create a new tracker, which should be the DREAM TRACKER for all
-
- amiga musicians.. (and all who want to become one ;)). I think
-
- I should give you a short summary of the new possibilities that
-
- AON offers you:
-
- - OS2.0 look! no hardware hacking like in protracker
- - Reqtools filerequesters
- - CPU or copper viewmode split (for pattern-display)
- (cpu needs more rasttime, but is more system-friendly)
-
- - More instruments!! (up to 61!!) (1-9,a-z,A-Z)
-
- - More patterns (up to 128) (if you demand more, just
- tell me!)
-
- - More song-sequences (Song-Length now up to 256)
- - Restart-Position <>0 possible
- - nice sequence-list editor
- - new songlist-edit short cuts
-
- - More player-commands !! (increased to max. 62, 46 are already
- in use!)
- - Arpeggio (up to 16) + Any other effect possible
- each arpeggio can have up to 7 partnotes, arpeggio
- speed is of course changeable
- - wavetable-commands
- - syndrums-commands
- - new effects like vibrato&volume set/slide etc..
- - external program SYNCHRONISATION commands (demos/games
- and other presentations (easy to use for e.g. multimedia
- productions, which shall be timed with the soundtrack)
- - 8 channel control commands
-
- - More notes ;) !!! Highest note is now B-5 !!
-
- - Maximal instrument play-length up to 256k, waveform size
- only limited to free memory!!
-
- - Cool new sampler with lots of new effects (digital filter,
- flanger/phase distortion/multi-sampling+triggering etc..
-
- - REAL 8 CHANNEL-MODE, *ALL* effects are usable on splitted
- channels, that includes loops as well as FULL VOLUME&PITCH
- control !!!
- - mix-rate up to 64khz!!!
-
- - Volume-Envelopes for SAMPLES(!!!) and WAVETABLE INSTRUMENTS(!)
-
- - Wavetable-Instruments !! ('synthetic' mode)
- - SAVES really A LOT OF MEMORY
- - no disturbing white noise, just crystal clear sound !!
-
- - Instrument&Waveform are seperated, so that e.g. 10 instruments
- can use the same waveform (very useful!)
- - saves memory
- - create new sound-fx by using different instruments
- which still use the same waveform!!
-
- - FM-Synthesizer
- - 2 operators to create cool filter-like sounds!
-
- - drumsequencer
- - create your own drumlines with up to 16 tracks
- - mixed in 16bit for optimal quality !
- - selectable pitch & sequence-length
-
- - Song-Remark can be detached to every song-module
- - up to 32k (even for small novels ;) )
-
- - Instrument names now up to 32 chars
- - easy instrument-selecting from the pull-down menu
- (just click on the name !) or press amiga+(instr.nr)
-
- - Disable not-needed-song-info saving (like remark/instrument
- names etc..
- - saves memory (about 3-36k)
-
- - Protracker-(load format)-compatibility, all key-shortcuts
- in AON are just the same as in protracker (+ ofcourse a lot
- of new shortcuts)
-
- - module-crunch
- - powerpacker
- - STONECRACKER (the best (fastest+most efficient)
- cruncher around!)
-
- - memory usage e.g. for patterns is the same as in protracker,
- although there are many many new improvements !!
-
- - many new pattern-edit commands !
- - exchange tracks/patterns
- - change volume
- - wildstar-replace (like in any texteditor!!!!)
-
- - player is easy to include in own productions (saves player+mod
- files and executables )
-
- - for the interested guys: The fileformat is MUCH better than
- protracker (well, it wasn't so hard to improve THAT format ;))
- - Chunk-format (like e.g. IFF)
- - easy to expand (future versions...)
-
- There are is also a huge amount of more detail-improvemements, which
-
- are nevertheless very useful when composing music. Just load the
-
- preview and check it...
