WinAmp plug-in is updated. Now works in WinAmp 5 (at least in 5.531).

Everything but infinite looping seems to work great. Winamp 5.35

And which problems you have with infinite looping?

once the song reaches end, it will not play any new notes, just has the last notes ON... the time counter starts going backwards at this point...

I have no such problem with 5.531 (latest), so I think, I will not fix this for now. If newer versions of WinAmp will have this problem again, then I'll fix it.

Back again after a fairly long absence....
Here is a little treat for all you FM maniacs.

First up Slow Groove, created using TFM sounds imported into FL Studio

http://www.zshare.net/audio/116378540b53fc82/

Next up is Crystal Orbit.

Created using TFM music maker for the drums which were then sampled and imported into FL, then FM7 does everything else.

and finally...

I had some spare time today,(bored to death more like) and seeing as i have never done a complete track using TFM, i figured what the heck lets see what i can come up with in a couple of hours.

Not the best track i've ever done, but not bad considering the timeframe.

Nice tracks Groovemaster, I esp. liked the last one.

Just want to say to the author this prog is awesome, keep up the good work!

Here's a tune I made in 1.1, need to check this site more often for updates

I think it sounds a bit better in headphones.

Shiru thanx for new version... just downloaded.

Code: Select all

v1.3 03.06.08 

* When SSG-EG trackbar has focus, Left/Right cursor keys moves focus
* When any operator control has focus, TAB key moves focus to other operator
* Note keys now works while changing instrument parameters
+ Basic support for MIDI keyboard (note keys and patch change)
* Effects EFx, E0x..E3xx, 8xx, 9xx, Cxx, Dxx are fixed
* Playing current note when entering effects EFx, E0x..E3x, 8xx, 9xx, Cxx,
  Dxx, EE0
* Change of current instrument number changes current instrument in instrument
  editor too
* Change of TL, MULT, DT and Feedback parameters while track playing affects
  to sound immidiately
+ Each note now can have up to four effects at once
* Default instruments now has maximum AR, DR, SR, RR values
* Changed effect Bxx and module format, old modules will be corrected on load

Notes about new features of this version.

For now, support of four effects per note is not very comfortable because you can't see all effects at once. I'd like to make something like in FamiTracker, but that requires many changes of interface code (besides really many changes in player which were made), so I decided to leave interface changes to future versions.

About MIDI support. Though I'm have MIDI keyboard and use it with sequencers, I don't use it with trackers usually, so I don't know how useful this feature can be. I added this feature just because other cross-trackers has it, and because it's relatively easy to implement.
