I've been using Milkytracker (FastTracker compatible) and still can't figure out what does each number means. You know, the ones in the format C-5 -- 000 or something. At least I know that the C-5 is the note to play, but I can't still figure out what do the numbers mean. Or how to set the track's instrument for that matter.
@ArkBlitz There are basically four columns. Note, Instrument, Volume, Effect. The effect is split into two 'fields', the first being the effect, the next two being the value of the effect. You can find a list in the manual and the parameters for each, an example might be vibrato on a note, the effect number would be 482, 4 being the effect (vibrato), 8 the speed, and 2 the depth.
I'm getting lag and freezes in both VMWare DOS 7.1 and DosBox. The app starts out strong but it eventually lags out. Anyone encounter and solve this problem?
@DontCloudMe Can't say I've experienced that. I think a virtual machine might be more prone to that if it's eating up a lot of CPU, but I can't say for certain. It could be your DosBox settings, at what point does the issue occur? If it only happens after you start to play a song I'd be inclined to think it's a soundblaster setting that needs changing.
Where can I get samples? :/

@darrylmd1 Thanks so much! Curiously enough, I had found zero tutorials that explained this one. Perhaps you should post one yourself.

This thing is the most confusing and frustrating program I have ever encountered.

@Bloodcurse13 Anywhere, really. All over the internet you can find free samples. There are more free samples on the internet than free porn.

thank you. I'm using Milkytracker, but his tutorial is much more useful than any of the other tutorials I've found on youtube.
