subject: hi!

 RS> On a very rainy day, Buu Huynh was bugging his computer and typed...
BH>  BH>  Anybody composed music around here?
BH>  RS> Wanna know how other people compose, or just wondering...
BH>  BH>  Just wanna what tracker your using, that's all.
BH>   RS> Tracker??? I'm sorry, I thought we were talking about 
BH>   RS> MUSIC? I compose(d) music using an Mega ST and Roland 
BH>   RS> PR-100 hardware sequencer driving...
BH>   RS> ...If you can convince me that 
BH>   RS> SERIOUS radio stations will accept jingles and 
BH>   RS> commercial tunes from a tracker...
BH>  Look at all those things, I bet that it cost a zillion.
 RS> Well, not really, but I agree I had to work for this 
 RS> stuff very long. I didn't buy all of it at once of 
 RS> course, took me about 6 years to collect all this 
 RS> stuff...
Some people can't afford that kinda stuff.
BH>  With tracker, you pay nothing!. Did I convince yet? :)
 RS> Not yet, those things eventually pay-off because radio 
 RS> stations want my tunes and pay for them. I'm still not 
 RS> sure if they would pay for MOD quality tunies. But you 
 RS> know what; I'll try it out! I will offer one a tune 
 RS> made with a tracker and hear what they say about it.
Give it a try. Remember that you need a good soundcard, GUS is
perfect. 
 RS> Besides, I don't agree about the "you pay nothing" 
 RS> thing. To play some serious MOD stuff you'll need a 
 RS> good soundcard (I have none) and a fast computer with 
 RS> loads of memory. I used to play tracker stuff through a 
 RS> Covox sound key and through the FM chip of my very very 
 RS> sheap and dull Covox Voicemaster II card, but I'll 
 RS> borrow some SB shit from a friend to create my next commercial tune.
I have to agree on this one. You need a damn good soundcard if you want
full sound. SB???? It's better if you get/or buy a GUS!
RS> I'll keep you informed.
Ok! :)
