Poll: Have You Used A Tracker Before Renoise?

Impulse Tracker, Jeskola Buzz and Renoise :)

And of course; IT > ft2

Mostly these: Scream Tracker > Impulse Tracker > Buzz (and Adlib Tracker) > … > Renoise

Impulse Tracker had nice and fast editing, like changing octave without changing note.

1992-1994 Startrekker on Amiga
1994-1995 FastTracker I on PC
1995-2002 FastTracker II (>IT2) on PC
2002-FFFF Renoise on PC

Almost my time-line as well, though before Soundtracker i also was on the C64, using soundmonitor, rockmonitor, music assembler and various music sequencers in there…
On Amiga i tried almost any tracker available. The complete protracker series up till protracker 3 where there and my most dominant used tools.
Octamed and Oktalyzer scored reasonably big as well.

On PC, started with Screamtracker, FT2 and then IT2. My PC era started around 1993 though, my Amiga period was from 1990/91 to 1993…

started off programming really weird music on my tandy 1000 desktop (it had a built-in 3-voice dsp!), used midi and notation programs for a while, then for quite a few years I used a combination of impulse tracker and cool edit. tried other trackers (like modplug) and never really clicked with them… until I discovered renoise one day. :)

I think the thread title will probably put off users who haven’t used a tracker before renoise, if you haven’t used a tracker before renoise, then you assume the content is gonna be about something your not going to know anything about, so i’m not sure how meaningful your poll results are.

All other forums I know also make it very obvious a thread contains a Poll without having to open it, which may help.

Definitely NOT from Tracker Era!!!

1998-Guitar

2008-PSP SEQ & PSP RHYTHM & RENOISE

mid-2009-Full Time Renoiser! :walkman:

So does this one, just —>not<— on in the “view new posts” page… Invision has been that way since I can remember.

Just check and you’re obviously missing the word Not. Bit strange it doesn’t have it on the View New Content page, which is what I mainly use, but at least it is there for normal forum viewing :)

Ok, I’ll change the topic title. I can see if people get confused.

edit: Looks like on mods can change the topic title. :confused:

Scream Tracker - Fast Tracker II - Buzz - Renoise

Yep. Year of my birth.

As soon as you’re over 25, you start feeling old. Fact.

I´ve started composing on the c64 in 1991, later i switched to the amiga and tryed a lot of trackers but had never a demogroup there.
in 1997 i bought my first hardware synth and started to use cubase.
i had a lot of small and big breaks during 2000-2007 , i mostly composed 1-2 tracks a year and it was allways a big pain in my ass to use cubase as i had a very unstable cubase 32
version (yes it was an original) :D
i`ve missed so much updates that i had to rebuy a fullversion and i decided to do not.

in 2007 i started to do c64 sid music again for my old demogroup oxyron using the goattracker, and i realised that using a tracker still works perfect for me.

then in 2009 i found renoise and played around for just some hours and bought my licence :)
best choice in the last 10 years!

Hi, Im new to this forum (hello people) but Iv been using trackers since I was on the demo scene back in the early nineties. I made tracker mods for crack intros and some demos. Iv been using renoise since about 2004.
Iv talked to people about renoise and seriously , it baffles them if they have never used a tracker before.

I play all my old .mods that i did with protracker on renoise and still use the lessons learnt from having no vst or 32 bit sound.

Most of you people started producing music when I was starting to figure out how to get out of my mom’s womb. :lol:

I was trying to make music with my mom’s womb.

I hope it was not breakcore :lol:
