cheesetracker1

Sound-module tracking program

Usage

cheesetracker [filename]

Overview

cheesetracker is basically a clone of the non-free DOS Impulse Tracker program. It is used to create sound modules, by combining sound samples in in such a way that when played it becomes music. It’s not hard to learn, just load up a few ready made files, and experiment with it. The files need to be in Impulse Tracker format (.it), or the cheesetracker native format (.ct). A good start for these modules is ⟨ftp://ftp.scene.org/pub/music/⟩

Options

This program takes only one argument, filename, to load at file at startup.
