About "Another Dream in My Mind" & Fast Tracker II
This is how it all started for me... A DOS software named Fast Tracker II; what a program it was. This piece of music took so long to get it done! mainly due to all those "special effects" you hear :D Everything was meticulously programmed; there were no built-in plugins such as reverb, delay, etc... just to mention a few. The hammond delay you hear in the track was achieved manually, duplicating the same phrase several times and decreasing the volume step by step. Some stereo padding was added too (if you pay attention, you'll see those notes scrolling down in blocks side by side). The cutoff frequency effect on the bassline was made note by note using the proper parameter to filter and manipulate each single note. I don't think I would ever have the patience to do that all over again... I could spend hours talking about the whole thing, instead let's move on and enjoy some crazy stuff ! ;-)
Have fun!

Wow, this brings back some memories!! The good old days.. :) Nice song!

@Avslappnandeljud 12 лет назад

I started with fasttracker II back in '94. Good memories! It was actually Starbreeze Studios who were behind the production but they eventually stopped improving the software when they wanted to focus on creating games instead.

I just love the blue GUI of this Tracker! Great Track!!

This is kind of old school now :) Used FT2 back in the late 90s and it was great. The amount of work you had to do manually was very big indeed, but all the more rewarding.

@wardrich 11 лет назад

Lovin' that 90's organ you've got in there :D

@kezman74 8 лет назад

Oh wow, takes me back!

Good times!!!!

FastTracker was coded using my first language, Borland Pascal 7.0 and Turbo Assembler. I think they used assembly for the graphic part to speed up the program.

I never did use the Fast Tracker. Once I came across the Impulse Tracker, I was stuck on that like glue. For some reason the format of it just all made sense to me. The way Fast Tracker looked to me was quite complicated. Even though they are in the same category of Tracker and do basically the same thing, I felt the IT was simpler to use overall.

@octogroover 10 лет назад

Opposite for me, I started with scream tracker and then switched to Fasttracker II. Guess I was too used to the interface, impulse tracker I just never seemed to get into. Really wish there was a version that worked in windows though

@gr8facemusic556 9 лет назад

octogroover There is - its called "Milkytracker" its a Fasttracker II clone and some say the best tracker available for windows.

@gr8facemusic556 9 лет назад

octogroover There is also a clone of implusetracker for windows called schismtracker.

@octogroover 9 лет назад

I tried the milky tracker, its actually not bad. Sound is true to the original, found it useful to extract and re export wav's from my existing files. I use Reason now, yet the one thing I loved most about trackers which I have yet to see a DAW do is be able to move through a sample's position/ start position/offset etc in detail, I mean you can in Reason but you can't automate it. Fast Tracker this was used as a way to emulate filters, and I remember getting some truly unique effects which can't be replicated in most Daw's ironically.

@gr8facemusic556 9 лет назад

digitalfemdroid agreed - its seems a few dedicated FT fanboys have managed to skew internet perception (and maybe even recorded tracking history) A LOT! FT and its clones (including the now popular milky tracker) have no real advantages over Impulse Tracker (or its clone that works on newer OSs Schism Tracker), there main argument is the UI but both are alien to a non tracker plus FTs will take at least 3 months to learn where as you can get ITs down in around 3 days. The fanboys have made FT2 / Milky Tracker the go to for tracker newbys who in turn become fanboys and who ALWAYS seem confused as to why most of the better music was tracked in IT back in the day, this is the reason IT is talked down upon in forums and articles. Its pretty messed up because fanboyism aside IT is the easier to use and better tracker by far.

Genius.

@davidwest4175 8 лет назад

I made a tune on FT2 back in 1996, it was so fun recording, can't find the tape cassette anywhere with the song though :( i'm gonna download this program again,, and try remake it for teh lolz

@behemotors4950 7 лет назад

I know that feeling, I made like 7 "albums" even a live one using a track just for the crowd noise! :-D

@onkelmonokkel 11 лет назад

Thanks, man! I've missed tracking too.

@DenisLYSS 9 лет назад

PCspeaker is COOL!!!!!

@octogroover 10 лет назад

Nice one mate, good to hear some others work done in fast tracker. I used this a lot in the mid 90's, check out some of my tunes under "Techno/Hard Trance" on my page, these were all done using fastracker II also.

@theeltea 13 лет назад

Can you imagine what it was like for those programming those SID chips? :)

@Fiilis1 12 лет назад

ah my first program in music making!

@RhysOlwyn 10 лет назад

I used to use FT2 too, loved it. Some years ago I discovered Renoise and was chuffed as fuck to find that it's compatible with .XM and .XI files, and even most of the keyboard shortcuts are the same too.

@RhysOlwyn 10 лет назад

...although it doesn't have Nibbles! :(

@DaniellosRulezz 9 лет назад

Mod Plug Tracker, Mad Tracker...

@Trancelistic 11 лет назад

Should check the basement for my old 80486. I used to use it for st3/fast and impulse tracker. I hope the HDD still contains it all. If so I let all know, I'll share all the files and samples

@StewX1976 12 лет назад

Who remembers this musicdisc: The Attack Revolution, aka.: T.A.R. ??? I can not find anywhere ...

@BeatsNBob 11 лет назад

Thanks a lot, no the samples were part of some shared users library.

@iwokssama4772 7 лет назад

I remenber, i liked Nibbles on FT2.

@djtonyxxx5 13 лет назад

goooooooo.... playing with 386 sx 20Mhz and 80MB (megabyte) of HDD... holy shit how many time is passed... now moved to madtracker. same feeling but more funny to use.

@wtfbuggo 12 лет назад

@kjakich 11 лет назад

Man, I miss Fast tracker! I think I'm going to look for an emulator or something!

@svw1978 6 лет назад

@moglia 13 лет назад

COOL GUYS! OH MEMORIES!!! This music is good .mod file is avaliable?

@WizzStarMusica 7 лет назад

@WizzStarMusica 7 лет назад

Ohh nice i love it :D, i have a question... where can i find the samples for start making music with FT2? Thanks upfront =3

@FreeFireFull 12 лет назад

@theeltea What SID? This isn't related to the C64 at all, there is no SID here.

@fritagogo1 11 лет назад

Old Musics Games...

@eerikk 12 лет назад

Switch to renoise which is AMAZING, CHEAP (Free to try) and very FT2-friendly!!!

@rapeli 10 лет назад

where can i get that program ! fucking trying to get allover

@octogroover 10 лет назад

Well thing is it was a DOS program so even if you do get it, you would have to run it on an old machine with a compatible sound card since it would not have drivers for the latest soundcards. By old pc I mean a 486 with a old version of the sound blaster card.
