!STracker/STmod-DOCS
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Background SoundTracker ModulePlayer v0.07 11-Jan-1990 19:03
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Coding & design by ALT_Man
This little module will play the specified Amiga-soundtracker module until
told to stop. It allocates space from the RMA to fit the module in so it's
best to be at the supervisor '*' prompt when you load tunes. Use *PM to load
the PlayerModule.
Start a tune going using: *PlayMod <modulename>
where <modulename> is the name of an Amiga soundtracker module.
Note: Using a *PlayMod while one tune is playing will cause the first tune
to be stopped and the second one loaded & started.
Stop a tune playing with: *PlayStop
I've debugged the code a bit since the last version and now it hasn't ever
crashed on me, but tends to lose notes just occasionally in desktop and
entry/exit of desktop makes screwy noises. Sample rate is currently fixed at
29Khz per channel. Takes appx 25%-ish CPU time.
