2015-06-05 ---------- The SoundFX 2 and MultiMedia Sound folders have been joined into one under the name of MultiMedia Sound. Some faulty and duplicated modules were deleted. As far as module science can tell, there is no detectable difference between these formats. Both are names of trackers that used the same format, and MMS was the latest version. 2014-03-05 ---------- The Renoise folders were getting out of hand with all those versions and have been reorganized. Renoise modules are now only separated into Renoise Old (the older format, .rns) and Renoise (the current xml-based format, .xrns). 2014-03-04 ---------- New format: Piston Collage Protected (.pttune). Not really a new format as it has been mixed up with Piston Collage since it was added in 2006. Today I thought it was time to make an effort to disentangle the mess within this folder. It contained .ptcop files (the default format), .pttune files (the protected, uneditable format now broken out to its own folder), .org files (Organya and Organya 2, Pixel's older formats which have their own folders) and two strange .pmd files which I have moved to the laboratory for further study (they are not of the format called PMD). 2014-03-03 ---------- There is now a torrent of the contents of Modland (as it was on february 27th of this year)! There was another one years ago, but this one is "official" and will be seeded by me from now on: ftp://ftp.modland.com/modland_2014-02-27.torrent This should be more convenient than FTP for those who want to download everything. It's not seeded from the server, so it will be rather slow until it's picked up by others with faster connections. You are very welcome to help out with the seeding if you have 49 GB you don't need and some bandwidth to spare. Also feel free to publish the torrent on various file sharing sites. New torrents will follow when enough changes have been made. 2014-02-09 ---------- I learned that bzip2, which was used to compress the allmods and hash lists, isn't universally supported, so I changed to the default compression (deflate). If you have had problems opening these files, it should work better now. 2014-02-05 ---------- New format: CustomMade (.cm). This was mixed up with Delitracker Custom and Ron Klaren. As far as current module science can tell, this was the original format of Ron Klaren's music in games like Battle Squadron. The format named after him is a later EaglePlayer adaptation. New formats: Digital Tracker DTM (.dtm) and Digital Tracker MOD (.mod), both replacing DigitalTracker. This is an Atari Falcon tracker where the older versions created a Protracker based format (FA04/06/08) which is usually not playable by Protracker replayers (as far as I have found). The last(?) version, 1.9, had modules of a new format, most of which have until now been misidentified as DigiTrekker, a wholly unrelated DOS tracker. The upload area has now been fixed once and for all (hopefully), so feel free to contribute if you have anything that should be in the collection. The changelog is now properly sorted and contains changes from the documents and software areas as well as modules. 2014-02-01 ---------- Finally we have changelogs again, and better than before since the script to generate them now use checksums. We couldn't do that before, it was just too slow. This makes the script able to detect more types of changes, like renaming, which before was listed as a deletion and an addition. For now the changelog only includes modules, but shortly it will also include software and other stuff. 2013-09-21 ---------- Here is Coma again. Time passes... and I'm fixing some stuff I should have fixed when the server was migrated. Actually quite a lot of stuff. The most immediately problematic issue has been filenames with 8-bit ASCII characters. Due to the server now residing on Linux, such filenames generate an almost endless amount of problems with various clients (probably when the server ran Windows too, but not as much). Because of this, all filenames have now been converted to 7-bit ASCII and everything should be downloadable again. More to come... Added two new formats: Picatune2 by BeRo and Klystrack by Kometbomb. Trackers for these can be found in /software/trackers/Windows. 2012-11-24 ---------- Don't believe him, it's all lies. :) Actually l-o-t-s of stuff (read: updates) was going on just today. Mega huge thank you to Ziphoid for the new playground! And to Coma for providing me with the keys to enter the new home. See you soon and do visit here more often, all. (deus-ex) 2012-11-20 ---------- A sign of life! And nothing more right now. 2012-06-03 ---------- The server is in the process of being migrated to a new home! It will now be hosted by Ziphoid, upgrading his mirror to the new master server. No updates will be possible for a while, but all data will remain accessible throughout the migration. Uploads are disabled, but if you want to send me your modules, feel free to mail them to me (as long as the file isn't extremely large!) at daniel@modland.com. They will be added to the collection as soon as the migration is finished. My warmest thanks to Ziphoid for making this possible! 2012-01-30 ---------- New format: DreamStation (.dss), a previously commercial synth tracker. Once again supplied by Igor. Check www.audio-simulation.com for info. 2012-01-01 ---------- What? No updates for almost a whole year? Well, nothing worth noting in this file anyway. But today a bunch of new formats were added: MegaStation, MegaStation MIDI, DarkWave Studio, MVS Tracker, Organya 2 and Monotone. I think all those came from Igor, so thanks to him. I also added support for these formats to Modname. Unfortunately none of them store any real names, so it's only detection support. But I also fixed some bugs, so if you use Modname you should get v2.11 now. 2011-02-04 ---------- New format: Athtune (.athtune), a script based synth format made by Athaudia. More a sound generator than a tracker, it is currently (v0.1) in the form of a Windows console program that converts a script to a wave file. Thanks to Igor for supplying this oddity. 2010-10-31 ---------- Suddenly! I released a new version of the module renamer. It's now a standard Windows application instead of a vbscript. This, along with some small improvements here and there, bumped the version number to 2.0. It requires .NET Framework and is a console application, so run it in your console. A log is no longer written, so if you need to save the output, just redirect it to a file. You'll find the program in \pub\software\utilities\Windows\Modname. Be sure to mail me if you find any bugs or problems. 2010-08-30 ---------- New format: Sound Club (.sn). One of two formats supported by Sound Club, created by Terminus/Bluemoon Interactive. The other format is simply called Sound Club 2 (.sn2), until now erroneously called "SoundClub 95" on Modland. Thanks to Igor for supplying all these modules. 2010-08-11 ---------- New format: Aero Studio (.aero). A commercial tracker made by IoNeo, similar to Reason/Buzz. A demo version of the tracker is available. Lots of players and trackers for various platforms (but mostly Windows) were added. All were uploaded by an anonymous person. Thanks! 2010-08-01 ---------- New format: ArkosTracker (.aks), made by Targhan, along with: New format: Starkos (.sks), made by the same guy. Both supplied by Flajs (thanks!). I'll quote from the readme: "Arkos Tracker is a freeware music software dedicated to the AY soundchip, which can be found in 8-bit machines like Amstrad CPC, MSX, Spectrum, Pentagon 128K and Atari ST. It runs on any Windows with the .Net framework installed. No plan to converting it to MacOsX and Linux are schemed. Arkos Tracker is born from the CPC tracker called "STarKos", which I also coded. It retains most of its features, extends some, and will improve them in future versions." 2010-06-17 ---------- Thanks to Flajs for his various contributions. 2010-05-16 ---------- Thanks to FJRC who uploaded his complete works (XM and MOD). 2010-04-19 ---------- New format: Compoz (.cpz), a Soundblaster tracker for DOS from 1991, created by John M. Coon. Also compatible with Creative Music File (Ad Lib). Thanks to Pieknyman for supplying this one. 2010-03-10 ---------- I reorganized the software areas (trackers and players). They are now subfolders in a general "software" folder. In that folder there is now also a new subfolder called "utilities". It will contain any module related software that are neither trackers nor players. The first item in it is my own module renaming script, written in vbscript. It should work in Windows 2000 and later. If you have a bunch of misnamed modules that you would prefer not to have to rename by hand, give it a try. It supports a lot more formats than any other similar programs I have seen, and it has logging and undo features. Please mail me if you find any bugs or have ideas for improvement. 2010-02-27 ---------- New format: Buzzic 2 (.buz2). There are now three separate Buzzic folders on Modland since the format seems to be redesigned between every version. The tracker is also available (trackers/Windows). Made by Stan/Rebels. Removed format: Cinemaware. This shouldn't have been included since it's one of those Sonix-like formats with external samples in a subdirectory. 2010-02-25 ---------- New format: PlayerPro (.mad). Apparently, this is "the ultimate SoundTracker"! And it's for MacOS! It's being developed by Madd the Sane, Antoine Rosset and Sandro Bilbeisi, and compatible with MOD/S3M/XM/IT/UMX and its native MAD format. Seems like you will have to download the source and compile it yourself if you want to try this. More info can be found here: http://playerpro.sourceforge.net/. Thanks to GPE for supplying these modules. 2010-02-24 ---------- Thanks to Hardmoon who uploaded his complete XM works. 2010-01-04 ---------- Happy new year! This is the decade in which I will turn 45. Horrible thought. 2009-09-01 ---------- New format: ProTrekkr (.ptk), a format made by Franck Charlet, based on NoiseTrekker by the late Arguru (who also made Psycle). It mixes samples with software synthesis (303 emulation among other things). Various ports of the tracker are available, along with a Winamp plugin. See this page for more info: http://pagesperso-orange.fr/franck.charlet/protrekkr.html ProTrekkr seems to have become the 300th format represented on Modland, another little milestone in the wake of the recent one. (This of course assumes that all Soundtracker derivatives are lumped together, as well as all Ad Lib formats... but still) 2009-08-09 ---------- Yesterday the collection passed another milestone; 400000 modules! This happened while adding another bunch of Nintendo DS rips from Knurek. I again extend my thanks to everyone who supports this neverending project. 2009-08-06 ---------- New format: Beni Tracker (.pis), an Ad Lib format made by "one guy from SPP" in 2003. Written in QuickBasic, which is cool and/or insane. There is even a playroutine for inclusion in your own QB programs... Otherwise: slow summer... as usual. 2009-06-07 ---------- New format: Megatracker (.mgt). A sample-based tracker for Atari Falcon. Thanks to Spot for digging this one up. It's playable in XMP, available as a standalone player or as a Winamp plugin. 2009-04-28 ---------- Thanks to Elijah who uploaded his complete works yesterday, including some really great XM guitar tunes. 2009-04-21 ---------- Thanks to all who have uploaded recently, specially to DJ Ice who contributed his complete XM works. If you sometimes notice that modules seem to be left in /upload for ages, then you're absolutely right. Sorry for that. Some stuff just requires a bit of researching before getting added to the collection... or I'm just way too lazy. And if you upload something that doesn't get added, the reason is almost always one of these: (1) It was already present (CRC match). (2) It was corrupted (for most formats: unplayable in XMPlay/Delix). (3) It wasn't a module (for example: streamed formats or some other irrelevant file type). 2009-03-22 ---------- New format: TCB Tracker (.tcb) An Atari ST format created by AN Cool. Thanks to Wanted Team and Muerto for supplying it. 2009-02-12 ---------- The number of modules will probably decrease (very) slightly over the next days, since I'll get rid of a bunch of modules that are faulty in various ways. If you have a working version of a module that show up as deleted in the logs, please upload it. Thanks to Buzz for his help with this. 2009-01-25 ---------- New format: Real Tracker (.rtm) A DOS based tracker created by Arnaud Hasenfratz, distributed as shareware. Last version made in 1997. Some info can be found here: www.sonicspot.com/realtracker/realtracker.html 2009-01-18 ---------- I'm happy to announce that the whole collection (a snapshot of it as it looked a few days ago) is now available for download as a torrent. For anyone planning on downloading everything on Modland, this should definitely be the most convenient way to do it, and probably the fastest too, as soon as the torrent gets more seeders. So if you have the disk space, feel free to help out. Pick up the torrent at: http://www.mininova.org/tor/2186225. Thanks a lot to Wacko for setting this up. 2008-11-27 ---------- New format: SunVox (.sunvox) A new, minimalistic tracker based on modular synths, created by NightRadio. See this page for more info: www.warmplace.ru/soft/sunvox/ Trackers for various systems are available. The last months have been somewhat inactive with uploads sitting in /upload forever... sorry! It's a combination of general laziness and putting too much time on other stuff. 2008-10-08 ---------- New format: GT Game Systems (.dux) This format, properly called "G&T Game Systems", but with the ampersand left out for technical reasons, was only used in the game Carver. The original creator is unknown. These are all known modules. An Eagle- player is available. Thanks to Wanted Team (and Muerto) for this one. 2008-08-19 ---------- New format: Sam Coupe COP (.cop) New format: Sam Coupe SNG (.sng) Music from the Sam Coupé computer. The difference between the two formats is unknown. There seems to be no player available yet. Thanks to Spot for these modules. 2008-08-09 ---------- Today I'm very happy to present a new web interface for Modland, created by Buzz and hosted at Exotica! This interface will make it much easier (or rather: at all possible) to find exactly what you're looking for. All kinds of searches can be made: find everything by a certain musician (in all format folders), all PlaySID modules beginning with "bez" (there are two) or whatever. Many thanks to Buzz for this ever-requested tool, which I have already found great use for myself. Check it out here: www.exotica.org.uk/wiki/Special:Modland or simply: www.modland.com 2008-07-17 ---------- Sorry for the chronically slow updating. The recent crash didn't help either. But now I've begun going through the really old stuff in /upload. Among today's additions were some TFM Music Maker stuff, supplied by Spot (thanks!). That folder now contains some .tfd files along with the .tfe ones. Some clarification could be in order: the difference is that the .tfe suffix designates a true module, editable in the tracker, while .tfd is a register dump from the virtual sound chips emulated by the tracker. There is yet another suffix, .tfc, which is also a register dump, but compressed. The latter two formats will only be present on Modland in lack of a .tfe version of a module. All three formats are playable by the TFM plugin for Winamp (or XMPlay). 2008-06-26 ---------- Last week, June 18th, Modland's system disk called it a day and broke down unrecoverably. No modules or other important data was lost, but the system was gone. After digging out and restoring an old ghost image I realised that I made that image from the old server and never created a new one when replacing the hardware. Hours later I had to leave for a week's vacation. Once again a crash with incredibly bad timing. I hastily reinstalled the machine on a new disk and set up VNC, planning to do the rest remotely. The next day I connected to the server and got to work... and the session crashed after ten minutes, and the machine stayed unresponsive. Nothing more could be done. A few hours ago I got back home and could reboot the ill-fated server. For now it seems to be working. Mail and ftp is up, but some stuff still need to be restored (virtual directories, scheduled jobs, rsync etc). Hopefully things will be back to normal some time tomorrow. After that I will immediately create a new ghost image of the system disk... 2008-05-09 ---------- Thanks to Photon/Phenomena for uploading a fine bunch of his own old Noise/Protracker antiques. Read his message in /documents/artist_comments! 2008-04-29 ---------- New format: Johannes Bjerregård Module (.jbm). This is an Ad Lib format created by J. B. There is also a DOS player for it in the players area. Fans of the V2 format may have missed that KB finally got around to update the player plugin to v1.5! This means that several V2M modules that were unhandled by the last version now are playable. Thanks to KB for his work with this great format. 2008-04-26 ---------- It's M.A.D. - Mirror Awareness Day! Sorry for the interruption, but something had to be done. Modland has three mirrors, all considerably faster than the main server. Use them for downloading. See mirrors.txt. 2008-04-21 ---------- Just a quick notice: with last night's additions, the collection passed 70 GB! It now consists of 75251499566 bytes of delicious music! That makes the average size of a module just over 200 KB. 2008-03-27 ---------- The latest months have seen an increase in mass downloading, typically the whole Fasttracker 2 area, or the whole collection. That's all fine, but use the mirrors! You will get the modules much faster. The main server's already slow connection is constantly maxed out by people trying to drink a lake through a straw, and since probably very few of them read this file, other means to get their attention will probably have to be used soon, since this is starting to become a problem. 2008-03-11 ---------- New format: Spectrum Sound Tracker 1.3 (.st13). The only thing I know about this format is that the string "SOUND TRACKER v1.3" can be found on pos. 7 in the modules. 2008-02-17 ---------- New format: SVAr Tracker (.svar). A russian tracker for Windows where the modules are PKZip archives (like Renoise 1.8). The tracker supports VST, VSTi and DirectX DMO plug-ins and is able to load several other formats (IT, XM, S3M, MOD etc). SVAr Tracker is a commercial product, but was recently made available for free (without limitations) for non-commercial use. Homepage: www.svarsoft.com/svartracker.html 2008-01-29 ---------- A new Winamp plugin (XMPlay compatible) for Nintendo DS Sound Format has emerged, and it seems to be much faster than the other one, at least on my system. Both are in the plugin folder, this new one is called in_Vio2SF. Thanks to an anonymous 2ch user for creating it and to Knurek for supplying it. 2008-01-26 ---------- New format: Buzzic (.buz). A format made by Andrey Stepanov, specially intended for creating music for 4k intros. The tracker, available in /pub/trackers/Windows/, requires .NET framework 1.1. 2008-01-20 ---------- New format: Nintendo DS Sound Format (.2sf, .mini2sf) Made by Unknownfile, based on the works of Neill Corlett. The plugin, called "Highly Whatever" (in_2sf), is still in its early stages and this is specially noticeable in XMPlay, where skipping is quite severe. In Winamp, many songs can be played without skipping, but not all. Furthermore the plugin puts an ugly console box on screen, which if closed also closes the host application. But I'm sure these bugs will be ironed out in coming versions. Thanks to Unknownfile for this format which I have looked forward to for over a year, and thanks to Knurek for supplying the rips. 2008-01-14 ---------- Thanks to Rave-N who uploaded a bunch of modules (MOD, XM, IT, S3M) by himself, George and Madbit. All from Argentina, which bumped that country 7 places on the "artist homeland toplist" (check the artist list). 2008-01-13 ---------- New format: Dirk Bialluch (tpu., smp.), created by the same-named guy for the game Time Lock. Thanks to Wanted Team and Muerto for this one. An Eagleplayer is available. 2008-01-04 ---------- It's a new year again! What happened to the last one? Various additions have been made the last month, pushing the collection past 350000. Thanks to everyone who have contributed, specially to Pitch/Nemol who uploaded his old Protracker modules and revealed that his most wellknown module, the one from "Boundless void", is usually credited to "Picca" due to the almost unreadable credits in the demo... Modland may now be the first module archive with this module correctly credited. :) 2007-11-24 ---------- New format: WonderSwan (.wsr), music from the handheld console of the same name. Thanks to Knurek for supplying it. A plugin for Winamp (or XMPlay) is available. 2007-11-12 ---------- The AUD format had to go since it's simply ADPCM compressed streams and thus belongs on Modland about as much as MP3's. I actually knew this since the format was up for possible inclusion last summer, but that info was lost from my mind somehow. Luckily there is a co-admin around here who remembers such things. 2007-11-11 ---------- The module storage disk seems to have crashed, or at least lost its filesystem. I'll try to fix it as soon as possible. Use the mirrors until then. Update at 23.42: The disk is fixed (as fixed as possible, it still needs replacing. Donate!) and the modules are pouring in from the backups. Everything should be back to normal within a couple of hours. 2007-11-10 ---------- New format: AUD (.aud), a Westwood-internal format used in some of their games (Command & Conquer with its expansions and Dune 2000 are known). The creator of the format and the modules is unknown. A Winamp plugin made by Martin Moško is available. 2007-11-08 ---------- New format: AXS (.axs), a synth/sample based tracker created by Guido de Haan and Robert Morcus. It's a Windows program but seems to rely quite a lot on its DOS legacy, so you'll have to edit the .ini file to get any sound out of it. Check the docs. The tracker and a Winamp plugin are available. EDIT: Alternately you could try clicking on that ol' setup button at the bottom of the tracker screen. :) Just scroll down by mouse or press F5/F6, or resize the window to display the entire tracker. (dx) 2007-11-05 ---------- Thanks to PST! for uploading all his OctaMED MMD3 works. 2007-11-04 ---------- New format: Anders Oland (.hot). Created by Anders Oland for the game Prime Mover. Thanks to Wanted Team for the player (EP) and modules, and to Muerto for supplying them. Note that the guy's surname really is Øland, but for various reasons format folder names shouldn't include characters outside 7-bit ASCII. It's often written Oland or 0land. 2007-10-14 ---------- New format: Synder SNG-Player (.sng) New format: Synder SNG-Player Stereo (.sng) Predecessor format of the Synder Tracker sng-module which utilizes an early version of DaNyL's synthesizer. Synder SNG-Player modules are not compatible with the current Synder Tracker format and cannot be loaded into the tracker. The Synder SNG-Player application bundled with all available modules can be accessed from our Windows player directory. 2007-10-06 ---------- New format: MultiMedia Sound (.mms). This format is closely related to SoundFX and was created by the same team (Christian Haller, Christian A. Weber and Rene Straub). Players that are able to play SoundFX can likely handle this format as well (at least Oldsk00l does). Thanks to Wanted Team for the modules and to Muerto for keeping an eye out. 2007-10-03 ---------- New format: Saturn Sound Format (.ssf, .minissf) New format: Dreamcast Sound Format (.dsf, .minidsf) As an old Sega fan I have been waiting for these for quite a while. As can be guessed from their names, these formats are derivatives of Playstation Sound Format and made by Neill Corlett. Both are playable through the Winamp plugin Highly Theoretical (in_ssf), which like the other PSF variants work in XMPlay. Thanks to Neill for his work with these formats and to Knurek for the SSF sets. 2007-09-09 ---------- Some news for you who are interested in the lists of artists and group abbreviations: these are now replaced by a single Excel workbook which also contains a page where some statistics and other metainfo will be placed. This workbook will be much easier to maintain than the old lists, where data sometimes had to be left out for the fields to fit their narrow, fixed width. Hopefully you won't have any problems finding an Excel viewer for your system. The old text lists are still online (in /documents/nostalgia/lists) but won't be updated anymore. Feel free to supply any information you may have that could make the list more complete, or if you have any interesting ideas for the statistics page. 2007-09-07 ---------- New format: Tunefish (.tf2i, .tf2m). A format created by Snej and BrainSlayer of Brain Control for their 64k intros. Each module is separated into two files for patterns and samples. Another find by Muerto. No known player exists yet. 2007-08-28 ---------- New format: Sidplayer (.mus). I'm not sure of the origins of this one, but it's the third C64 format (after PlaySID and RealSID) supported by Pieknyman's SID plugin for XMPlay. Supplied by Muerto. Thanks! New format: Stereo Sidplayer (.mus, .str). The stereo complement to the above format. Each module consists of two files, and the .mus files differ from their mono counterparts and are (often) not playable (yet) by the mentioned plugin. 2007-08-23 ---------- New format: MVX Module (.mvm). This format is based on a set of Buzz plugins called MVX and was created by Gargaj for his demos. There doesn't exist any standalone player for this format yet. Thanks to Muerto for supplying this one. 2007-08-21 ---------- Changed the name of VSS to its proper name "Voodoo Supreme Synthesizer". 2007-08-20 ---------- New format: Startrekker AM (.mod, .nt). I have confused myself over this format for a long time. It's the free version of Audiosculpture, and was written by Exolon of Fairlight in the dawn of time. The .mod file looks like an ordinary Protracker module, but with FLT4 instead of the M.K. identifier. There is also an eight channel variant with FLT8. The .mod files are accompanied by a smaller file with the same name (including .mod) and the extension .nt or .as. As they seem interchangeable I have chosen .nt for all files. I'm not sure of the .nt file's function. Some .mod files lacking their .nt counterpart will play fine, some won't. There are a bunch of such modules in the Protracker folder, I have left them there since there is no problem playing them with a normal Protracker player (as long as it doesn't get upset about the "FLT4" string). Thanks to Asle and Pieknyman for the modules and info. 2007-08-19 ---------- In cooperation with Exotica I proudly present: Modland's third mirror. It's located at aero.exotica.org.uk/mirrors/modland. Thanks to Buzz for setting it up. 2007-08-14 ---------- New format: Synder (.sng). A phase distortion synth tracker for Windows made by DaNyL. Found this one on VORC. 2007-08-10 ---------- New format: Super Nintendo Sound Format (.minisnsf, .snsflib). Another variation of PSF, this time for SNES music. This format is focused on music from games that use the main CPU for sound mixing, something that the SPC format doesn't allow, but works for normal SNES music as well. It was made by Caitsith2 and supplied by Knurek. A Winamp plugin has been added, which (of course) works in XMPlay. 2007-08-03 ---------- I have added quite a bunch of vintage players and trackers, supplied by Svenzzon an age ago. Thanks! 2007-07-27 ---------- New feature: you will now find a folder called playlists under /pub. It will contain m3u playlists which link to the amigascne mirror. This will be a nice way to discover new favourites among the masses of modules. Thanks to Knurek and Pieknyman for this idea. Feel free to contribute with your own playlists. Look at the existing ones to find out how the URL's should look. 2007-07-25 ---------- New format: TFMX ST (.mdat, .smpl). Atari ST version of TFMX, also made by Chris Huelsbeck and Rudolf Stember. Since this format uses the ST's sound chip, many .mdat files are not accompanied by a .smpl file. Thanks to Wanted Team and Muerto for this one. 2007-07-14 ---------- Lots of added DOS trackers today, thanks to Pieknyman (of Delix fame). 2007-07-03 ---------- New format: BeroTracker (.brt), a very nice tracker from Germany. It supports multiple input formats (BRT, MOD, XM, IT, S3M, MTM, MT2, IMF, DMF, STM, 669, OKT, WOW, MID), written by the very skilled BeRo. (dx :) 2007-06-17 ---------- Modland now has a second mirror! It's located at modland.ziphoid.com and is really fast, so try it out! If you have problems connecting to it, check your firewall settings. I had some trouble with my own... Thanks to Ziphoid for putting this mirror online. There was quite a lot of hard work involved... 2007-06-14 ---------- New format: TSS (.tss, .tsd). A japanese format where the modules are plain text files in MML. The .tsd format is a compiled version. A DOS player and a Winamp plugin (which works with XMPlay, like most other Winamp plugins) are available. Supplied by Knurek. 2007-06-10 ---------- Thanks to Graa, Myth, Joule and Lyzzard who all supplied more of their own stuff today. Check the changelog tomorrow to see what went where. 2007-06-08 ---------- New magazine scan: SHN #4/86. 2007-05-31 ---------- New magazine scan: SHN #7/90. 2007-05-30 ---------- Renamed the two Vortex formats to be consistent with the rest of the Spectrum formats. I also seem to have a bunch of missorted Spectrum stuff, which I'm right now trying to fix. I blame the inconsistent suffixes... 2007-05-20 ---------- New format: BoyScout (.bsf). A new format by Chrutta that emulates the sound chip of Gameboy Advance and can be played on the real hardware. A tracker is available. More info at www.pidelipom.com/boyscout/. Thanks to Mr. Eeh for supplying this one. 2007-05-05 ---------- New format: Lionheart (.lion). Not much is known about this format, but it seems to be based on Sonic Arranger without the synth part. Probably only used in the game with the same name. New format: Special FX ST (.doda). From games using Special FX on Atari ST. All known modules are present. Both formats were created by Don Adan and uploaded by Muerto. Thanks both. Also thanks to Novus, Pailes and the regular guys for their contributions the last weeks. 2007-05-04 ---------- New format: Organya (.org). Another format by Pixel, the guy who created Piston Collage. All known modules are from his game Cave Story (Doukutsu), but since he has made the tracker public, other tunes are bound to show up. New format: Shroom (.sho). A format created by Strobe/Titan that contains music from Mario Paint (for SNES) savestates! Aren't the formats getting more and more wonderfully obscure? :) No ShroomTracker exists yet, but modules can be made using a SNES emulator with the appropriate ROM and ShroomTool. More info at http://shroom.powerhuhn.net/ Both Organya and Shroom were supplied by Mr. Eeh. Thanks! I changed the names of two formats that contained ampersands. Those pesky characters screwed up the backup scripts. The formats are now named "Digital Sonix And Chrome" and "Digital Sound And Music Interface". 2007-04-28 ---------- I sometimes get mail from people at o2.pl. These are often impossible to answer, since o2.pl's mail servers just respond "450 Please try later". The latest one was today - Marcin, please mail me from another address. I recommend people using this "o2" service to get a better mail host. 2007-04-25 ---------- New format: TFM Music Maker (.tfe). Not much is known about this format since the documentation is all in russian. You'll find the tracker under /pub/trackers/windows. Thanks to the anonymous guy who uploaded it and deus-ex who improved the package. Further information about the TFM Music Maker can be found here: http://www.spritesmind.net/_GenDev/forum/viewtopic.php?t=125 2007-04-11 ---------- Yesterday, another milestone was passed as Modland hit 300000 modules! I bow down to everyone who helped take the collection this far, and hope you will hang on a while longer. There are still unarchived ones out there, and we need to catch'em all! :) 2007-03-26 ---------- Just a quick notice: the server now supports SSL, for that extra-secure module leeching. 2007-03-25 ---------- Knurek has uploaded vast amounts of new console rips, mainly PSF and USF, pushing the collection past 60 GB! Thanks Knurek! At this moment there are 64921281831 bytes of delicious music on the server. All these new rips are first versions, untimed and untagged, and mostly credited to "unknown", but they all sound as they should. 2007-03-18 ---------- New format: Quartet ST (qts., smp.) New format: Quartet PSG (.sqt) These Atari formats were unearthed by Muerto. Thanks! 2007-03-11 ---------- I would like to welcome deus-ex as cosysop of Modland. He has been a great supplier of numerous new formats and updates during the last two years, so it's with pleasure I now give him the key to the janitor's closet. :) Welcome aboard, deus-ex! 2007-03-07 ---------- All services have now been running on the new server for a few days, and as far as I can tell, everything works as expected. But I have probably missed something, so be sure to mail me if you notice anything out of the ordinary. 2007-02-25 ---------- I have copied all data from the old server to the new one. No more updates will be made until the new server is online and the old one is retired. I will test all services and applications during the next week, and I'll switch back and forth between the servers, so expect some weirdness. Uploading during this period will be possible but nothing will be added until after the transition is finished. 2007-02-24 ---------- New format: SoundFX 2 (.sfx2), supplied by Muerto. Thanks! I'm currently in the process of preparing the new server for Modland. The transition will maybe not be made this weekend, but the server might still be taken offline now and then during today and tomorrow. 2007-01-26 ---------- New format: Renoise 1.8 (.xrns). From v1.8 of Renoise, the module format has changed completely. The files are now pkzip archives including the samples separately and the pattern data and other info as an xml-formatted file. Thanks to deus-ex for supplying it. 2007-01-19 ---------- Apart from a bunch of new stuff (mostly XM/IT) from deus-ex (thanks!), another little addition was made today: a file called server_stats.txt in the root dir. It's updated every night and for now it only contains some download totals for the last 24 hours. I'll add more numbers to it later, for the enjoyment of myself and other statistics nerds. 2007-01-18 ---------- New format: FamiTracker (.ftm). A NES tracker made by jsr. Apart from its native format, it's also capable of exporting to NSF. Found this one while surfing around aimlessly. 2007-01-06 ---------- And suddenly it's 2007! Lots of stuff to add, thanks to everyone who has uploaded. 2006-12-21 ---------- Time to go home over the holidays. No updates for two weeks. Merry christmas! 2006-12-15 ---------- New format: Zoundmonitor (.sng). Found this Amiga tracker and a bunch of example modules in an old archive. Made by Dave Mentos. 2006-12-10 ---------- New format: HivelyTracker (.hvl). A new Amiga tracker by Xeron/Iris and Spot/Up Rough. Made to be a sort of sequel to AHX on modern Amiga hardware. No player other than the tracker (which requires AmigaOS 4.0 and can be found in the tracker section) exists yet. Thanks to Spot for the heads-UP! :) New format: Picatune (.smufi). A new format by BeRo where the modules are XML- formatted textfiles which can be rendered into small executables suitable for 4k intros. I found out about this format when Lyzzard uploaded one of his own modules, so thanks to him for that. I added Picatune in the tracker section, but found no standalone player for it. 2006-12-03 ---------- Today a bunch of PlaySID additions from deus-ex, who also added lots of info to the author list and group abbreviations list. Thanks! 2006-11-30 ---------- New format: MCMD (.mcmd), supplied by Asle (thanks!). I haven't been able to find much info about this, only that it probably is some converted Hippel format. Other info says it's a TFMX clone. Others a Protracker clone... As it became increasingly complicated to make updates to Video Game Music, I reorganized the folder. It's now sorted on platform before composer. Also added many new VGM modules, mostly Sega Master System ones. Thanks to Knurek for supplying them and to the guys at www.smspower.org for creating them (and indeed the format itself). 2006-11-28 ---------- Decided to add SHN (Svenska Hemdatornytt) to the magazine scanning project. Now it will take twice as long to finish, and it's still only of interest to swedes. All scans can be found in /pub/documents/nostalgia, and I just added SHN #9/89. 2006-11-23 ---------- I'm happy to announce that Modland now has a mirror at amigascne.org. The mirror is updated daily and has considerably better bandwidth, so... use it! You'll find it at ftp://ftp.amigascne.org/mirrors/ftp.modland.com Thanks to Cygnus for making this possible! 2006-11-21 ---------- The server was down for six hours due to a BSOD at 5.54 this morning. 2006-11-18 ---------- Knurek has ripped and compiled a bunch of sets of music from Nintendo DS games. The music is in its native MIDI/soundfont format (and a bunch of OGGs) which I probably won't add to Modland since I don't think MIDI stuff belong here. I suspect that an emulated NDS format will emerge in a not too distant future. Until then, you can find Knurek's NDS sets in the /temp dir. I recommend that you use XMPlay with the MIDI/archive plugins to play them. Thanks to Knurek for his work with this! 2006-10-24 ---------- deus-ex did a great job with cleaning up the format documentation folder (/pub/documents/format_documentation). The files were updated where possible and given more accurate names, and lots of new ones were added. 2006-10-20 ---------- Two new formats today! Thanks to Knurek and deus-ex for those. New format: Piston Collage (.ptcop, .pttune, .org, .pmd). A new japanese tracker which mixes samples and FM synth, made by Pixel (homepage here: http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA022293/) and supplied by Knurek. As you will find, most of the filenames are very nondescript. I also had to rename some of them to variations of "noname" because they consisted of unicoded japanese characters which would confuse the server. I'm not sure of the relationship between the various file types, but according to Knurek the ptcop modules are editable in the tracker while the pttune ones are not. As for org and pmd, nothing is known. There are two versions of the tracker in the tracker section, but neither has any english documentation. New format: Noisetrekker (.ntk). The predecessor of Renoise. There are two subformats, one used in Noisetrekker v1.0/2.0 where the modules begin with "TWNNSNG2". This format uses zlib compression. From v3.0 the modules begin with "NTK21" and use no compression. All Noisetrekker modules currently present on Modland are of the older format. Supplied by deus-ex. 2006-10-09 ---------- New format: MikMod UNITRK (.uni). A library format used by MikMod, supplied by deus-ex. The server was down for four hours last night due to a power failure which took out half of Gothenburg, and my area seems to be at the bottom of the priority list... Because of ever-increasing amounts of spam clogging the mail server, it is now running Spam Assassin (believe it or not, I had no filtration at all before). I'm still tweaking around with the ruleset, so if you mail me and get no answer it's very probable that your mail was misdetected as spam. Rewrite and resend it or put a message in the upload dir... 2006-10-07 ---------- New format: Liquid Tracker (.liq), another find by deus-ex. Only two modules so far, and they are of different versions (one begins with "Liquid Module", the other with "NO"). Maybe I will split these up later. There is a tracker in /pub/trackers/DOS/ that handles both formats. Thanks to deus-ex for this and all the other additions in the trackers and players sections the last days. 2006-10-05 ---------- New format: AND XSynth (.amx). A softsynth developed by AND (http://and.intercon.ru), so far only one module in the collection, and it may very well be the only one in existence since it was custom-ripped by deus-ex (thanks!). There is no known player. 2006-09-19 ---------- New format: SBStudio (.pac). A DOS-based tracker with Soundblaster and GUS support, made by Henning Hellström. More info here: www.sonicspot.com/sbstudio/sbstudio.html. Thanks to WildCoder for this find. 2006-09-18 ---------- Revived the DMZ scanning project after three months on ice. Added the april issue of 1995 (I haven't figured out what number it had). 2006-09-15 ---------- Slow updating for a while, and as usual it's because of an insane amount of things to do at work. Thanks to Phoenix for supplying lots of his own modules, and correcting the mixups in the Phoenix folders. Thanks also to Zeg, Asle, Knurek and deus-ex for their continuing support. Very appreciated. 2006-08-24 ---------- Today we have lots of new V2 stuff from Quickyman and Dafunk, mostly from their coop-musicdisk Synthezze (pouet.net/prod.php?which=25889). Thanks a lot to Quickyman for supplying these modules! 2006-08-20 ---------- Big updates in Playstation Sound Format by Knurek, and in SNDH by deus-ex. Thanks! 2006-08-18 ---------- Thanks to Krister Fundin who uploaded a bunch of new Musicline Editor modules by himself! He also supplied author info for most of the unknown ones. 2006-08-17 ---------- New format: The 0ok Amazing Synth Tracker (.t0ast). A softsynth tracker made by BeRo/Farbrausch. Minimalistic and cool stuff, supplied by... yes! deus-ex! The tracker package is in /pub/trackers/windows. Yes, the first one there... I have been promising for too long to sort out the trackers. This will mark the starting point for that. 2006-08-12 ---------- New format: Beaver Sweeper (.gtk). A realtime softsynth and tracker made by Gnilk, Steffo and Zyrax. Supplied by deus-ex of course... You'll find the tracker and player in /pub/players/windows. 2006-08-05 ---------- New format: Digital/FM Music (.670). Supplied by deus-ex, and I'll just paste in his introduction of the format here below. You will find the demos and standalone player in /pub/players/msdos/Digital-FM Music. > This one you'll find NOWHERE on the web as there was no tracker available > supporting this format. As the name states this format supports both Digital > (4 channels) and FM (9 channels) music, simultaneously. > > Excerpt from rbgdemo2.doc: >> Black Glass ][ is the first demo to use our new Digital/FM music driver... In >> fact, it is also a player for our new .670 music format. As more .670 files >> become available, you will be able to play them with Black Glass ][ by simply >> adding the music name on the command line. > > My guess is that this format was canceled later on and the Multitracker format > was developed instead or maybe MTM was the successor but sadly they dropped > FM support. > > Another demo by Renaissance called 'Amnesia' came with six included 670-modules. > On popular demand of the scene a musicplayer 'muszik.exe' was released later on > which has to be used together with the demo application 'Amnesia.exe'. > I was able to ripp all but one of the Amnesia modules.

For the 'Black Gas II' modules and > you'll have to use 'rbgdemo2.exe' though. 2006-07-21 ---------- Crown of AMP has accused me of "ripping off" AMP's list of composers. This is a lie. The list was made from my own old swapping lists which were written entirely by myself. It was then contributed to by several people and by myself, going through all modules and extracting author information (which is a gigantic task, I'm only at "C" of Protracker so far...). I wouldn't even want to include AMP's information in my lists, as it is full of errors which Crown has never been inclined to fix. Crown is a pitiful fool, and I feel sorry for the other AMP staffers, because they are all good people. It gives me some satisfaction though that Crown feels threatened enough to send me his pathetic complaints. I'm sure he would prefer if there were no online module collections at all except for AMP. I'm happy to make Crown dissatisfied also in this regard. 2006-07-19 ---------- I'm afraid the updating has been going slowly for a while. The problem is that my brain melted while trying to finish the changelog script. There has also been too much to do at work... as usual. 2006-07-02 ---------- From now on the addlogs will be changelogs instead. I'm experimenting with a new format for the logs which will include deleted and changed files and not only added ones. It's not finished yet, so files that are moved or renamed for now show up both as deleted and added... 2006-07-01 ---------- There was a lengthy (close to 8 hours) outage friday night. ISP problems... but at least they fixed it before the weekend. Lots of Playstation Sound Format additions today, thanks to Knurek. 2006-06-20 ---------- New format: Spectrum Pro Sound Maker (.psm) New format: Spectrum Sound Tracker Pro (.stp) These formats were included when Knurek uploaded a new collection of Spectrum music. I already had a Spectrum Sound Tracker Pro folder, but all modules in it are named .stp2. I haven't found any specifics on what differs between these, but the files look very different. I decided to rename the current folder to Spectrum Sound Tracker Pro 2. 2006-06-12 ---------- Among today's updates is the addition of several entries in the author and group lists. Thanks to deus-ex for those. 2006-06-11 ---------- Sorry for the outages tonight. After some patching of the server, the firewall didn't want to play along... should be OK now though. 2006-06-10 ---------- Changed name of "Nintendo NSF" to "Nintendo Sound Format", as it should have been named from the beginning. I've also begun phasing out the Megadrive GYM format (as I talked about doing in november...) by deleting all GYM sets that have a VGZ counterpart in the Video Game Music folder. This will make the total module count drop a little... 2006-06-05 ---------- Thanks to deus-ex who sorted out the AdLib Tracker 2 folder. This format has 11(!) subformats, of which 1-8 is supported by AdPlug for Winamp, and 9-11 only by the tracker itself. It makes sense to separate these, at least until all subformats are supported by AdPlug. 2006-06-01 ---------- Today the book "Otaku Sweden Go Go! - en bok om svensk blip blop-musik" (a book on swedish blip blop music) was released. It features interviews with a number of notable swedish chip musicians, for example Dubmood, Maktone, Goto80 - and myself! :) It's very nicely produced, upwards of 200 pages, all in swedish. Anyone who would like to order a copy or get more info should contact the author at jens.ryden@berghs.se. 2006-05-28 ---------- Some more replacements from Asle today, and a bunch of console additions from Knurek, and some Ad Lib and other stuff from deus-ex. Thanks all! 2006-05-15 ---------- Thanks to Quickyman, who uploaded a new batch of his homecooked V2-modules! And to Asle who replaced another bunch of oldschool modules with their original versions (or as close as possible). 2006-05-14 ---------- According to the addlogs, 10990 modules have been added today! Unfortunately that's not really the case... but a lot of console music (SPC, VGM and PSF) has been updated with fresher rips and/or moved to the right composer folders. All this thanks to your console king Knurek. 2006-05-06 ---------- The HES folder is now much better sorted, thanks to Kaminari who made m3u's with author info for a lot of the modules, and Knurek of course who supplied it all. I'll put the m3u's online too as soon as I've checked them all for matching filenames. 2006-04-30 ---------- New feature! You will now find a collection of the best modules in /pub/favourites. These modules are the most classic, the coolest, the most representative of the scene. Some of the choices may surprise you or even annoy you, but they are my favourites and only top quality (and I hope you will forgive if the selection is somewhat chip-centered). Now you (and I too) can quickly and easily get a small but great collection of modules, for listening at work for example. This is a first draft, and in its current state the collection contains 1000 modules. No C64 music yet, and no console formats either. I'll go through those later. I have probably missed lots of music which deserves to be included (specially among the PC formats), so just mail me if you have any suggestions. But my opinion is final - no mercy! :) 2006-04-20 ---------- New format: Ken's Digital Music (*.kdm). A format made by Ken Silverman and supplied by deus-ex. The file waves.kwv needs to be in the same folder as the modules. Added a winamp plugin to the players section. 2006-04-13 ---------- Sorry, but the updating is still pretty much on hold. I'm currently working out of town, and that will continue for another two weeks. 2006-03-17 ---------- Few updates the last month... I've had too much other stuff to do, but the situation should improve shortly... 2006-02-17 ---------- New format: Pollytracker (mod.). A sample-based C64 tracker made by Heatbeat. Strangely enough, the modules are named mod.* (the format is nothing like Soundtracker though). As I don't know what else to name them, I'll leave them with that naming standard for now... Thanks to Spot for supplying the modules! 2006-02-14 ---------- Thanks to Krister Fundin who uploaded his complete works in Musicline Editor - 550 modules! This pushes the collection past 250.000! 2006-02-10 ---------- Started a new side project that may be of some interest to swedish Amiga fans: I'll scan and put online all issues of Datormagazin, the classic swedish Amiga/C64 magazine. Find them (only one so far) in /pub/documents/nostalgia/dmz-scans. I realize that an ftp site may not be the best medium for such a collection. Maybe someone with some gigs of webspace would like to host it when it's ready? Mail me... 2006-02-05 ---------- Deus-ex (and myself :) made quite a bit of updating of the author list. Added a bunch of Knurek's latest console uploads. Also thanks to Soft Maniac who uploaded more of his own XM and V2 works. Modland now has 103 V2 modules online, whereof none anonymous! 2006-01-28 ---------- If a bit of shameless self-promotion is allowed, you may want to check out the newest additions to my own folder: /protracker/coma Sort on dates to get the new ones. Avoid if you dislike chiptunes. :) 2006-01-12 ---------- Quite a lot of additions the last days, for which we have the usual gang to thank, and some anonymous uploaders too. I've also continued working on the author list. A lot of corrections get done while writing it... Note! If you are into weird japanese formats (as I'm sure you are), be sure to check out Knurek's Hoot Archive at snesmusic.org/hoot/. 2006-01-11 ---------- Finished adding the format descriptions. Thanks a lot to Deus-ex for collecting them all, and to the original authors of course. If you have any other docs like this, please upload them! 2006-01-10 ---------- New format: Gameboy Sound System GBR (.gbr). Knurek supplied two modules of this format, which is similar to the much more common GBS format. I haven't found any info on how they differ, but the GBR files begin with GBRF while GBS ones begin with GBS. Players for GBS seem to handle GBR without problems. While adding this format I renamed the GBS folder from Nintendo GBS to its real name, Gameboy Sound System. I've also added several format description files (in /pub/documents), all supplied by Deus-ex. More coming up tomorrow... 2006-01-07 ---------- I'm working on the author list. For starters I'm using data from my really old module list from my days of swapping. The list, dug out from dh0: of my half-broken A1200, now resides in /pub/documents/nostalgia... Update! You will now find a first draft of the author list in /pub/documents. Don't trust it too much as many corrections and additions will be made to it. But it's a start. The format of the list is, I hope, self-explanatory. There are five fields per line; handle, previous handles, real name, country and groups. The present, last or most important group is mentioned first. Find any errors? Mail me! 2006-01-06 ---------- I've received two requests: to include file hashes in the module list and to maintain a list of author names and aliases. I'll implement both of these as soon as possible. That list may take some time to compile though... Update! Now you will find a list of all modules and their MD5-hashes in /pub/documents, updated each morning. Since the list is quite large, it is archived with rar just like the regular allmods list. 2006-01-01 ---------- It's 2006 already! Happy new year and thanks to all who have uploaded. I'll be sorting out the new additions in the next few days. 2005-12-04 ---------- New format: Ben Daglish SID (.bds) 2005-12-03 ---------- Added a big bunch of NSF modules supplied by Knurek. Thanks! 2005-12-01 ---------- Remade the VGM folder again. Now the VGZ's are packed with gzip (correct) instead of pkzip (wrong). Also implemented even more corrections from Asle (thanks!). 2005-11-30 ---------- Asle fixed the Kris Hatlelid folder. As the playroutines for each set of modules (if one is needed) must be named "songplay", the sets have their own folders as needed to avoid clashes. 2005-11-27 ---------- A bunch of modules by "unknown composer" of various formats were unanonymized by Asle. Thanks! Asle also pointed out that the Kris Hatlelid folder is faulty - every module should have its own playroutine as an external file, now there was only one for all modules. I removed them all until I can get working versions of these tunes. 2005-11-25 ---------- I will soon be adding a lot of Sega Megadrive music in the VGM (Video Game Music) folder, while phasing out the older and less accurate GYM format. While doing this I will probably convert the whole folder to VGZ (zipped VGM) as the file sizes easily get out of hand otherwise... this was the case also for GYM, but that format used internal compression. The file sizes have gone down considerably with the latest VGM version, though. You will probably find some tunes duplicated in both folders while I'm working on this. Thanks to Knurek for supplying these new VGM's! Thanks to Quickyman02 for uploading more of his great V2M modules! (and pointing me in the direction of more V2M stuff) 2005-11-24 ---------- Implemented the banlist (in the documents folder) and deleted the persons in question. I've only included such module thieves I've found out myself, except for K-Styles, who seems to be a rather special case... I've also not included the several people who make "remixes" which are not much more than the original module with some track replaced or some extra patterns - as long as they give credit to the original composer. This list will be updated. 2005-11-23 ---------- Sorry for the unstable service the last few weeks. The problem was a deteriorating DSL modem which is now replaced (again - the first replacement modem was broken on arrival). 2005-11-19 ---------- New format: AY STRC (.strc). I've only found one module of this format, and it begins with ZXAYSTRC while the earlier AY formats Emul and Amadeus begin with ZXAYEMUL and ZXAYAMAD. So this seems to be a relative... but I've found no player that supports it. 2005-11-14 ---------- The server was offline for 3 days while I was away working. That was because the crappy DSL modem decided to quit and die an hour or so after I left. 2005-11-03 ---------- New format: RamTracker (.trk). Another AWE-based format that supports MPU401 and GUS. Found and supplied by Deus-ex. 2005-10-28 ---------- New format: All Sound Tracker (.ast). I leave the word to Deus-ex for an introduction: "This format mainly targets on utilizing SB-AWE hardware features but also supports FM-synthesis on OPL3-chips as well as MIDI through the MPU401-interface and even PC-speaker output". This probably doesn't work on anything else but a DOS machine with an AWE32-card. Deus-ex also uploaded the tracker. I'll put that online as soon as I get the upcoming tracker section sorted out. Trimmed this file a bit... 2005-10-27 ---------- The server was out of contact with the world from 02.00 to 13.15 today. The crappy switch decided to hang the uplink port. Of course that happened 5 minutes after I went to bed. A while ago some nice (but anonymous) guy uploaded a bunch of Screamtracker 2 mods, while also supplying credits for many of the unknown ones. I've now added those, and took the opportunity to delete all modules that simply were resaved Pro/Sound/Noisetracker ones. 2005-10-26 ---------- New format: Unis 669 (.669), an extended version of Composer 669. The modules begin with "JN" instead of "if". Only two modules of this format found in the 669-drawer, and they were hunted down by Deus-ex. New format: GoatTracker 2 (.sng). Extended version of GoatTracker, supplied by... none other than Deus-ex! Modules begin with "GTS2" instead of "GTS!". 2005-10-24 ---------- New format: GoatTracker (.sng). Once again a new format discovered by Deus-ex! This is a multi-platform C64 tracker that outputs SID sound through reSID emulation or the HardSID soundcard. New format: GoatTracker Stereo (.sng). A version of the above format, where two 3-channel songs are combined into one... something like that. 2005-10-17 ---------- New format: Ixalance (.ixs). Another day, another new format supplied by Deus-ex. This one was created (mainly) by Crystal Score/TBL who also composed all of the known modules. A player for this format is available in /pub/players. 2005-10-16 ---------- New format: Onyx Music File (.omf). This format was used in a musicdisk called Jangle, released by Onyx in 1993. And it was (of course) Deus-ex who found it. Thanks! 2005-10-11 ---------- New format: Cybertracker C64 (.ct). A C64 format found by Deus-ex. There is already a Cybertracker in the collection, but the only module of that format looks totally different (begins with "CAT", then looks like IFF chunks). 2005-10-09 ---------- Even more corrections and additions from Deus-ex, mostly Ad Lib ones. He also discovered a new Ad Lib format called Drum Traker, made by Larry Tipton. That's the 50th Ad Lib format! 2005-09-29 ---------- A lot of Ad Lib corrections and additions has been made the last days, all thanks to Deus-ex, who also custom-ripped many of them. A quite heroic deed. :) 2005-09-24 ---------- Deus-ex cleaned up the Buzz area, no more unknowns there. Thanks! Upcoming contributions from Knurek, Muerto and Sinatra. Thanks to them for supplying. Will take care of those mods tomorrow - I should have been asleep an hour ago (I'm between worknights)... 2005-09-20 ---------- New format: PMD (.m). Another dump format from the PC9801. The modules currently on Modland are from the Toho line of games. Artist unknown. Thanks to Knurek for supplying these! 2005-09-19 ---------- Thanks to Sqd for uploading all his Protracker modules! 2005-09-18 ---------- Nothing much happens in this file, but in reality there are updates done almost every day. Most of Axxy's DVD-contributed modules are done. Now only 400 megs of IT-modules remain. There has also been a lot of corrections and additions from Deus-ex the last days. Thanks! Some numbers: there are now 23.4 gigs of XM-modules in the collection, IT comes in 2nd with 10.8 gigs, MOD is right behind with 9.6 gigs. This while the 200 "smallest" formats on Modland amounts to 1 gig together! All in all there are now 54,917,976,085 bytes of delicious music on Modland. 2005-09-05 ---------- Today Axxy's second DVD with missing modules arrived! Most of them will be added during the next days. Again thanks to Axxy! 2005-09-01 ---------- New format: Soundtracker 2.6. Quite unlike the other incarnations of ST. Instead of an identifier (like "M.K.") at position 1080, you will find "MTN" at 1464. Haven't found out anything else about this rarity... The server will be out of service for a short while tonight or maybe tomorrow. I'll try to force some more horsepowers out of the old dusty hardware... 2005-08-24 ---------- Again a bunch of corrections (and modules) contributed by Deus-ex. Thanks! 2005-08-23 ---------- Lots of additions today, all credit for them goes to Axxy and Knurek. 2005-08-16 ---------- Axxy was kind enough to burn and send a DVD full of modules missing in the collection. Thanks a lot! 2005-08-06 ---------- New format: Capcom Q-Sound Format (.qsf, .miniqsf). Another console dump format related to PSF (see entry for 2005-04-30). This was also supplied by Knurek. Thanks! 2005-08-02 ---------- More updates! Finally got around to implement Asle's latest corrections, so now there are a lot fewer unknowns in BP Soundmon 2, Delta Music 2 and JamCracker. Thanks Asle! 2005-07-21 ---------- Removed CMF again as it's an Ad Lib format that was already present in the Ad Lib folder. Bummer... 2005-07-20 ---------- New format: Creative Music Format (.cmf). Similar to MIDI but the instruments (FM synth only) are included in the module. This one was supplied by Deus-ex who also made some more corrections here and there... 2005-07-18 ---------- New format: Psycle (.psy). According to Wikipedia a format "designed to clone Buzz". That means that, like Buzz, some modules require that you have the right "machines" installed. But most modules use only the internal machines. Supplied by DSLracer. 2005-07-16 ---------- Trying to fit in some updates between worknights... And we have the usual trusty bunch of uploaders to thank for it all. 2005-07-05 ---------- The additions and corrections just keep on coming... thanks to Deus-ex and Axxy. And the allmods script now finally generates a correctly formatted list. In the end I had to abandon several clever solutions (that didn't work) and instead dig up a DOS ANSI converter from the stone age (that did work). Brute force wins! 2005-07-03 ---------- Added a DOS player for DSIK RIFF modules, supplied by Deus-ex. The new "list of the day" script has problems with our lovely swedish characters åäö. I'll fix it later... 2005-07-02 ---------- After a lot of additions the last days, Modland just hit 200000 modules! It's quite insane. In 1993 I started collecting all modules I could get, and after 2 years I had 1000 mods in the collection, all on 880k disks... In 2001 I put Modland online, and I think there were about 20000 mods in total at that time. In january 2004 I hit the inconceivable 100000. It took 11 years to get to that point. And now, not 18 months later, here we are at 200000... My warmest thanks to all my friends who made this possible by contributing to the collection. I hope you will remain for the continued journey towards the million... :) 2005-06-30 ---------- New format: Digital Mugician 2 (.mug). Mixed up with Mugician 1 for too long, now fixed. Both made by Rhino/Team Hoi. Renamed DSS to its real name: Digital Sound Studio. Replaced some of the players in the DP2-player pack with new versions, and removed some redundant ones. Added a bunch of S3M/XM-modules uploaded by Axxy. Thanks! More to come I suspect... 2005-06-23 ---------- I'm going away until some time next week. Going to celebrate a traditional swedish midsummer (escaping out in the nature with some good friends, raising a maypole, drinking too much alcohol, and all that stuff). There will be a planned power outage here on tuesday morning, planned to last from 00:00 to 04:00. The server should come back up by itself, but if it doesn't, now you know why. 2005-06-22 ---------- Muerto uploaded his AmigaPlayers for DP2, and after checking them all, I could add or replace some players in my package (see entry for 19/6). Thanks Muerto! 2005-06-20 ---------- Added AdPlay 1.5 (DOS Ad Lib player) to the players section. It was supplied by Deus-ex. Other additions here and there thanks to the usual bunch of uploaders. 2005-06-19 ---------- Lots of updating today, again chiefly thanks to Axxman. Another thing: as many people use Deliplayer 2 but may have trouble finding working players for some formats, or simply don't want to download masses of independent archives from Wanted Team, I packed my Amigaplayers folder into an archive which you now find in /pub/players/ windows/dp2-amigaplayers. It's not optimized in any way and probably contains redundant players, but it will make your DP2 able to play a great number of the formats here on Modland and other sites. I've removed all players that cause instability to DP2 (v2.03), but if you just move all the players into your existing Amigaplayers folder you are asking for trouble. There will surely be conflicts and chaos. I recommend backing up your existing Amigaplayers folder by renaming it to Amigaplayers-old or something, and then implant my player collection in its entirety. I will update and optimize this package whenever I get the time. 2005-06-15 ---------- Virgill mailed me and wanted several of the modules in /protracker/virgill removed. Many were dupes and others were not made by him at all (they now reside in the unknown dir), but some he claimed as "copyrighted". In some case the samples were copyrighted, in another case the melody! How silly. But I've always promised to follow musicians' requests so they are now removed. And thanks to him for the other corrections. Thanks to Climber for uploading his DBM modules. 2005-06-14 ---------- Lots of XM/IT/S3M additions thanks to Axxman. Some other additions and corrections made by Deus-ex, Knurek and some anonymous person(s). Thanks! 2005-06-06 ---------- Lots of additions and corrections thanks to Deus-ex and Knurek. 2005-05-23 ---------- New format: SPU (.spu). Another Playstation logging format of lesser sound quality than PSF. I'll probably remove this format as soon as I can get all songs as PSF instead. Thanks to Knurek for this one. Among other uploads from Deus-ex was Adlibtracker2 Player 0.34, a DOS player for many Ad Lib formats. It now resides in /pub/players/msdos. Use DosBox to run it from Windows. 2005-05-19 ---------- New format: Octalyser (.oct). Not to be confused with Oktalyzer, this seems to be an Atari Falcon format based on Protracker. It has "CD81" where Protracker has its "M.K." signature. Quite many updates today. Thanks to all who have uploaded. 2005-05-08 ---------- New format: MDX (.mdx, .pdx). Music from X68000, which Knurek called "a japanese Amiga" as it was a 68000 based machine with custom chips. Some of these modules require their sample file (.pdx) present in the same dir. This format is also sorted on game. Almost no author info was available - well, there was some documentation, but I have an unfortunate lack of skill in reading kanji... New format: S98 (.s98). Sound logs from PC88/PC9801 (japanese x86 compatible computers), also supplied by Knurek (of course!). New format: KSS (.kss). The sound format of MSX, a japanese standard for home computers taken up by Philips and Spectravideo among others. It had AY- or YM-based sound like many other computers of that age. This format too was supplied by Knurek and this concludes the additions of his console format uploads. Thanks a lot, Knurek! 2005-05-07 ---------- The server was down for 20 minutes or so while I installed a new disk for backups. And after that it responded very slowly for a couple of hours while all CPU time was spent on restoring the backup archives. 2005-05-06 ---------- More and more updates... thanks to Knurek, Deus-ex, Promax and Muerto for their support. 2005-05-02 ---------- New format: HES (.hes), the music format of the TurboGrafx16/PC-Engine, one of the first 16-bit consoles. Several cool tunes to be found here. All songs by anonymous composers, unfortunately. A bunch of other additions today, thanks to Deus-ex, Knurek and Anthony. And to the one who uploaded the missing XM's by Nagz. 2005-05-01 ---------- New format: Ultra64 Sound Format (.usf, .miniusf) New format: Gameboy Sound Format (.gsb, .minigsf) Music dumps from Nintendo 64 and Gameboy Advance. Both are close relatives of PSF added yesterday. The same deal applies for miniusf/ usflib and minigsf/gsflib files. By the way, these library files are of course excluded in the automatic module counting. 2005-04-30 ---------- New format: Playstation Sound Format (.psf, .psf2, .minipsf, .minipsf2) Music dumps from Playstation 1 and 2. Sorted on game title. The minipsf's require their .psflib file in the same folder as it contains the common sample set. These were supplied by Knurek who also uploaded a bunch of other console formats which are on their way into the collection... 2005-04-20 ---------- New format: FuchsTracker (.fuchs). Thanks to someone for uploading. New format: Electronic Music System (.ems). Renaming the old folder of this name to Electronic Music System v6. The 6th version of EMS is apparently very different from the earlier ones from the Amiga (containing its own softsynth and all) so it's motivated to make this separation. Thanks to Promax (of Kefrens, perhaps?) for pointing this out. Today's XM additions were all uploaded by Stefano, so thanks to him. 2005-04-10 ---------- New format: Digitrekker (.dtm). An Atari format. New format: DigitalTracker (.dtm). Another Atari format. Yes, both use the .dtm extension. Couldn't find out anything about either of these formats, and no players either. Characteristics: Digitrekker modules begin with "D.T.", DigitalTracker (only got one so far) looks like Protracker in the beginning but has "FA08" instead of "M.K." at position 1080, the "08" probably being the number of channels. Maybe you noticed that there is a new Modland logo in the welcome message. I thought it was time for a change so I threw it together. Not being an ASCII artist I see it as a makeshift logo until I can get another one, so if you are skilled with ASCII, please make a logo and mail it to me! Thanks... 2005-04-05 ---------- New format: SC68 (.sc68). Quoting the SC68 website (sc68.atari.org): "SC68 project includes a very large collection of Atari ST and Amiga soundchip musics. The SC68 music archive only contains musics that need unusual or custom music players". Check the page for players for Winamp and XMMS. I couldn't get any Amiga tunes to play though... And it hasn't been updated since november 2003. 2005-04-04 ---------- Thanks to Soft Maniac for uploading more of his cool XM-chips. 2005-04-01 ---------- Some slow weeks due to too much work as usual. Thanks to Al Lansley for contributing with his S3M works. Also thanks to the usual faithful bunch of uploaders... 2005-03-07 ---------- Someone might be interested in knowing that with the latest updates the collection passed 27 gigs! If you would leech it all, and got the whole upstream for yourself (which you wouldn't get), it would take at least 78 hours! 2005-02-27 ---------- Lots of additions the last days... thanks to all who have uploaded. And of course thanks to Asle for his neverending hunt for the "unknown" composers. 2005-02-22 ---------- All the CBA modules have now been promoted from unknowns to being properly sorted, thanks to Deus-ex, who also uncovered the info that the format was created by Chuck Biscuits and Black Artist for a musicdisk called Expoze. 2005-02-16 ---------- I've been really busy with work the last week, so there has been almost no updating. Today I at least got around to add Axxman's recent XM and DMF (X-tracker) uploads. Thanks to him for those. 2005-02-08 ---------- New format: Dynamic Studio Professional (.dsm). Apparently an old multichannel Amiga tracker developed by Pooyan and Bonanza of LSD. Once again it's Deus-ex who found this rarity, so thanks to him. Note that the format's suffix is .dsm just like Digital Sound Interface Kit, but DSIK's modules begin with "DSM" and DSP's modules begin with "DSm"! And thanks to Asle who supplied the identities of the authors of yet another bunch of previously unknown Protracker modules. Almost all Protracker updates for today are thanks to him. 2005-02-02 ---------- New format: Graoumf Tracker (.gtk). A tracker for Atari Falcon. New format: Graoumf Tracker 2 (.gt2). The Windows sequel of the above, made by Laurent de Soras. It can be found at graoumftracker2.sourceforge.net. New format: Imago Orpheus (.imf). DOS tracker created by Imago in 1993. Thanks to some anonymous person for uploading all these. New format: Digital Sound Interface Kit RIFF (.dsm). Renamed "Digisound Interface Kit" to "Digital Sound Interface Kit" as it should be named. It seems there are two different formats with this name, one where the files begin with "DSM" and one where they begin with "RIFF". The latter of these formats was introduced with a commercial version of the DSIK package. Since the two formats are incompatible I'll keep the RIFF ones in a folder of their own. Thanks to Deus-ex for all this info and example modules. 2005-01-31 ---------- Today's addlog was cut short because of a module with a file name full of unsuitable characters. Mostly Impulsetracker additions were made but not reflected in the file. I'll try to make the script more crap-resistant... 2005-01-30 ---------- Cleaned up a bit in the Ad Lib-subfolders - many of the "unknowns" weren't so unknown after all, and now also have their right names. Check today's addlog for details... (see how useful it is!) Thanks to Asle who hunted down the authors of several of the unknown Protracker modules. 2005-01-29 ---------- New format: Digital Sound & Music Interface (.amf). Old DOS format created by Otto Chrons. Thanks to Deus-ex who discovered that a lot of the modules in the Asylum folder really were of this format. 2005-01-24 ---------- Fixed the addlog script a bit. It's still not intelligent enough to see the difference between renamed files, moved files, replaced files and files that are actually new - it will count all those as "new". Not much to do about that I suppose. It might even be an advantage if you want to follow all changes to the collection. Shortened this file by moving entries before 2004-09-13 to the archive... 2005-01-23 ---------- New format: Velvet Studio (.ams). Yes, on popular demand (or something) I separate this format from Extreme Tracker again. Some info from the web indicated that Extreme Tracker had simply changed name to Velvet Studio, but apparently the format changed as well. Unfortunately they kept the .ams suffix which complicates things... Thanks to an anonymous person for pointing this out (and other errors that are now fixed). 2005-01-22 ---------- The server is now running yet another script: one that sums up the recently added modules each day and puts the results in /pub/addlogs. If no modules were added, no result file will be created for that day. Should you notice any oddities in this or other scripted stuff, be sure to mail me... Thanks to Deus-ex for uploading a bunch of V2 (formerly known as ViruzII) modules! A Winamp plugin (along with VSTi and Buzz ones) for this format can be found at www.1337haxorz.de/products.html#v2 2005-01-11 ---------- Now also the welcome message is auto-updated with the correct number of modules and formats! You wouldn't believe how complicated and ugly this script is... but it works! 2005-01-07 ---------- Wow! 2005 already... Added quite many mods here and there, but also deleted a bunch of duplicates. I've also worked on some scripts, mostly backup ones but also an automated module list updater. Now you will always find the current module list in the root dir, generated at 00:00 the same day. So don't begin leeching the old one at 23:59... 2004-12-19 ---------- New format: Core Design (.core) New format: Jeroen Tel (.jt) New format: Fashion Tracker (.ex) New format: Cinemaware (.cin) Formats and players supplied by the always excellent Wanted Team. Cinemaware is a MIDI-like format (probably only used in Wings) that requires external samples in the folder "instruments". Removed Velvet Studio and put the modules in Extreme Tracker, since I found out that they are the same format. The number of formats in the collection has now reached 200! The total size of all modules just passed 21 gigs. 2004-12-18 ---------- New format: Cubic Tiny XM (.mxm) New format: Epic Megagames MASI (.psm) New format: Digisound Interface Kit (.dsm) Modules of these formats (and some others) were uploaded by some nice person, along with a player that handles them: MilkyPlayLite. (The "real" MilkyPlay is for PocketPC only.) You can now find this player in /pub/players. The web page is here: oldschool.voodoofrog.com 2004-12-12 ---------- The server crashed with a BSOD today, and because of my job I couldn't come home to fix it until 20.15. Downtime: 8 hours or something. Now the OS is set to autorestart on crashing... 2004-12-09 ---------- Lots of additions here and there the last weeks, mostly in Fasttracker 2. Still lots to go... 2004-11-03 ---------- Slow updates right now because of heavy C64 music sorting... I really want a PSID renaming tool... should be easy to write. For someone that can code... Now I found GoodPSID. Unfortunately it is useless. 2004-11-02 ---------- Zeg made some uploads (many Ultratracker mods, among other stuff) and corrections. Thanks! 2004-10-27 ---------- New format: SoundClub 95 (.sn2). Added more XM-modules uploaded by Stefano. Again thanks to him for all his uploading. 2004-10-26 ---------- New format: Vic-Tracker (.vt). A tracker for VIC-20 made by Daniel Kahlin. Check http://www.kahlin.net/daniel/victracker/ for more info! 2004-10-25 ---------- Many additions here and there, along with some deleting of duplicates. Will probably pass 130000 tomorrow! 2004-10-21 ---------- Had to implement some protection against bad clients who continuously try to open new connections to get several files simultaneously. No, you won't get the files faster (the sum of your download speeds equals what you would have got from a single thread), the log files fill up in no time at all and it's generally bad behaviour. 3 logins from the same IP are accepted, it's pointless to keep trying to open more. From now on, if you connect more than 3 times within 20 seconds, your IP will be blocked for 30 minutes. If you don't know how to configure your client so it won't be so abusive, use another client! 2004-09-30 ---------- Added lots of YM tunes that have escaped organizing for too long... 2004-09-29 ---------- New format: Renoise (.rns). Only playable in Renoise itself as far as I know... New format: Atari Digi-Mix (.mix). New format: Skaletracker (.skm). 2004-09-22 ---------- Months ago someone uploaded some Sidmon 1 tunes along with a textfile describing the authors of many other tunes. I've now used that file to get a much better sorted Sidmon 1 folder (it was in almost total chaos before). Thanks to whoever it was who uploaded those files. 2004-09-21 ---------- New format: Vortex Tracker II (.vt2). Found a couple of modules with the suffix .pt3, but they didn't look like Spectrum Pro Tracker 3 at all. Instead they began with "Vortex Tracker II 1.0 module". Until I know what to make of this I'll let them live in their own folder... Added hundreds of Protracker modules. All were from the old (very old) unsorted area, where several gigs of modules still reside... I'll try to sort and add as many as possible each day, now that I have both time and space for them. 2004-09-19 ---------- New format: Nintendo SPC (*.spc), the format for dumps of SNES music. Lots of lovely music came from that console. This is a collection sorted on author (of course!) that I've had archived for a long time awaiting new server disk space... 2004-09-13 ---------- Finally! The server got upgraded, and will not run out of disk space for a long time... probably never! Now get uploading those modules you have in your dusty old diskboxes (I know you do)! 2004-08-17 ---------- If you mailed me some time between 16th of august 17:11 and now, please send your mail again since the mailserver's workdisk got full (many full disks around here) and no mails could be saved... 2004-08-07 ---------- Index file updated. The module partition is now absolutely full! No more updates or uploads until the disks are replaced. 2004-07-31 ---------- In the root dir you will now find a photo of the server... and here are some useless facts on Modland: CPU: AMD K7, 650 MHz (top of the line 1999) Memory: 128 MB SDRAM (6 years old budget chip) Storage: 20+20 GB RAID1 array (total available for modules: 17 GB), where one of the disks is emitting threatening clicking noises Uplink: 800 kbit DSL line (...) With that upstream you don't really need state of the art hardware... But at least the disks will be replaced in a month or two. And sometimes, perhaps, if I find the right hosting, I will put the server on colocation and get some real bandwidth... Hmm, maybe I should begin making those "Donate!" pleas you always see on other sites? :) OK, it's a deal! If you want to contribute economically to the future of Modland (don't worry, it will be there anyway!), just send some money in a letter to Daniel Johansson, Siriusg. 108, 41522 Göteborg, Sweden. 2004-07-12 ---------- Added hundreds of mods (mostly XM's) uploaded by Stefano. Thanks! 2004-06-28 ---------- Some updating here and there (over 105000 mods now!), the most important being the installation of a better firewall that hopefully won't crash at least twice a week. 2004-06-06 ---------- At 22:51, friday the 4th, the firewall on modland.com crashed and thereby all connections were blocked. That was a few hours after I had left for my old home town for the weekend. Now, 47 hours later, I'm back and the server was restarted... Why do these things never happen when I'm home? 2004-05-24 ---------- Ivo Šišák uploaded a part of an unknown song for identification. I didn't recognize it. If you have some time over, please download sample.mp3 from the temp dir and see if you can identify it! 2004-05-19 ---------- Had to restart the server since it decided to close all data connections, so nothing could be transferred for several hours... People could login but that was all. Strange things happen with computers. 2004-05-14 ---------- Thanks to Rolemusic for uploading his Impulsetracker modules. Also thanks to Tue for completing(?) my collection of Hille-modules! 2004-05-09 ---------- New format: Future Composer BSI (.bsi). Created by Tony Bybell. It seems to have nothing to do with the real FC (v1.3 and 1.4). 2004-05-07 ---------- The module partition is now 99% full! Only small additions can be done until I buy new disks. This will probably take a couple of months. :/ Thanks to Knurek for all his uploads including a lot of SNES music that will be put online as soon as there is space available... 2004-05-01 ---------- Added Mahoney's complete works after finding his homepage. Thanks to him and other legendary musicians who don't hide away their old stuff! 2004-04-29 ---------- Many updates, mostly Vortex and Impulsetracker, but also many other formats. 2004-04-18 ---------- Psycho was nice enough to upload his complete works (MOD/XM). Thanks! Also thanks to Booster and his anonymous acquaintance who uploaded Gryzor's legendary CD-set "Mods Anthology". Most of those modules were already present at Modland, but many fills will be made the next days. 2004-04-14 ---------- Sorry for the lack of updates lately... I'll get to it tomorrow! Today is my birthday, hooray for me :) 2004-03-19 ---------- New format: NerdTracker 2 (*.ned), a NES tracker for DOS. 2004-03-07 ---------- The server was down for some hours because of a crash-exploit-using scriptkiddie located at pc21-73.kub.trollhattan.se. This exploit has now been patched and *.kub.trollhattan.se filtered. 2004-02-12 ---------- Tested another module lister. This one didn't crash, but it turned out to have no support for long filenames. What a joke. I give up. If someone has a nice module lister, please put it in /upload... thanks. 2004-02-01 ---------- New format: Viruz II (.v2m). This is the fantastic sound engine used in Farbrausch's famous series of intros. Only two modules known so far, I really hope to find more! Find the player here: http://xdata.port5.com/pub/viruz2.rar 2004-01-30 ---------- Thanks to Spot for synching Modland's AHX collection with his own! Now 742 AHX modules online. It may be the largest AHX collection on the net. :) 2004-01-29 ---------- New format: SoundPlayer (sjs./smp.) New format: BP SoundMon 3 (.bp3). No longer mixed with BP SoundMon 2. Deleted format: SoundMon 2. That folder was empty... probably created by mistake. New format: Cybertracker (.ct). Nothing is known about this format. All I find is a Cybertracker for C64, but since the only module I have is 280 kb, I hardly think that's the one. New format: Soundtracker Pro II (.stp) New format: Sound Master II V1 (.smpro) New format: Sound Master II V3 (.sm3) Modules of the latter two formats are no longer mixed with the original Sound Master modules. Thanks to DSLracer for uploading these obscurities and lots of other stuff I haven't had time to sort yet... I decided not to include SMUS (Sonix) in the collection, since the tunes I've found all have external samples, something that goes against the very point of modules... I've never included Soundtracker songs either. Tried out a module listmaker, to get a nicer index file than just a dir dump, but it crashed when it was fed the whole collection... 2004-01-14 ---------- At 21:35 it happened: the 100000th module was added to the collection, and it was "Artic blues" (Protracker) by Uncle Ben! Now the race towards 200000 begins! :) Thanks to all who made this possible. 2004-01-13 ---------- New format: MusicMaker v8 (.mm8). I don't know what the old version was, but it had each module split up into three or four files, really inconvenient. Now there's only one file to each module. 2004-01-12 ---------- New format: Symphonie (.symmod) Lots of updates here and there. 100000 is drawing really close! 2004-01-11 ---------- New format: RealSID (.rsid). While I was adding a bunch of new PlaySIDs, I noticed that many of them were of the RealSID format (4 first characters are RSID instead of PSID). I knew that I already had some of those mixed with the modules in the PlaySID folder, so I decided to separate them once and for all. Many of the new C64 modules published in HVSC and other places are RealSIDs, and it's unfortunate that they are mixed with PlaySIDs like this, specially since many players only support PlaySIDs. They even usually have the same extension, .sid, which in itself is wrong - it should be .psid! (.sid always was the SidMON extension on the Amiga.) DeliPlayer 2 has finally been released in a non-beta version. Get it from pub/players/windows or www.deliplayer.com. This is the most important piece of software you can have on your PC. :) 2004-01-10 ---------- It's a new year, and Modland moved to new hardware (again!). It now resides on its own dedicated machine. Please, if you notice any strange behaviour, mail me at once (coma@modland.com). 2003-12-15 ---------- Too much work, too less updating as always. The server now has a new connection with a little more bandwidth. It also has a new IP address and I just changed the DNS record, which is why ftp.modland.com was unreachable for a while. 2003-11-23 ---------- New format: SoundMon 2. Thanks to Zeg for uploading it and for several other completions here and there... 2003-11-12 ---------- New format: Future Player. Thanks to Wanted Team for writing a player for it (and various other formats) and to DSLracer for the tip. 2003-11-09 ---------- Some new updates after a month of very low activity! Thanks to all who has mailed during this period and contributed with modules or corrections. Everything gets added sooner or later... mostly later... :) 2003-10-06 ---------- More corrections by Jashiin. Thanks! 2003-10-02 ---------- I guess many have noticed communication problems with the server now and then... there was some trouble with the new hardware but that seems to be fixed now. Remember: always make sure your FSB speed equals your memory speed. :) And thanks to Vince Young for uploading some missing modules. 2003-09-25 ---------- Ramosa uploaded his complete works (Protracker and some XM). Thanks a lot! 2003-09-24 ---------- More problems... Migrated Modland to a new computer. Didn't go as smoothly as one could hope for. When that was solved, the connection from my ISP went down again. It's now been up for two of the last ten hours. This sucks. 2003-09-23 ---------- New format: Stonetracker (.spm/.sps). A 4-8 channel Amiga tracker that never became a success. Patterns and samples in separate files. 2003-09-22 ---------- New format: Velvet Studio (.ams). Thanks to an unknown person for uploading these modules. The player didn't want to run in XP... 2003-09-18 ---------- I have foolishly forgotten to renew the domain name. It will be done tomorrow. So now you know what happened if you had trouble reaching the site... 2003-09-14 ---------- New format: Funktracker (.fnk). Searched for this tracker on the web but all that remains of it are dead links... New format: Disorder Tracker 2 (.plm). This tracker was also impossible to find. New format: Digitrakker (.mdl). Actually found this old tracker but it didn't want to run in my XP environment... 2003-09-13 ---------- New format: Gameboy Tracker (.mgb). A tracker, made by Paragon 5, for music made with Gameboy specifications. Has nothing to do with the GBS format. Since some days you can now see a page at www.modland.com. Too bad it doesn't contain anything yet... :) 2003-09-12 ---------- New format: Protracker 3.6 (.pt36). A version I had never seen before. The modules seem to be in IFF-FORM format. Quite obscure. Thanks to Zeg who has uploaded missing modules by 4-mat, Dreamweaver, Greg and others! Also thanks to Mark Chapman for his continuing uploading efforts... 2003-09-01 ---------- Updated the index file today. It got quite a bit bigger... Now over 90000 modules online! 2003-08-31 ---------- New format: Nintendo GBS (*.gbs). Dumped music from the Gameboy system. Added a collection of 89 GBS modules, surprisingly many with author names. New format: Video Game Music (*.vgm). Dumped music from various Yamaha/TI chips mostly used in Sega consoles but also in some arcade games. 2003-08-30 ---------- Thanks to Mark Chapman who has been uploading lots of missing XM's! 2003-08-29 ---------- More sorting day and night... the race towards 100000 continues! Thanks to Orbit for uploading his "at work"-collection. :) 2003-08-27 ---------- Thanks to Awtl for finding some artist duplications and some format info. Also thanks to Mr. Holub for uploading some of his own modules. 2003-08-26 ---------- SMT uploaded his complete works (all Protracker). Thanks a lot! 2003-08-23 ---------- No updates for a while due to summer lazyness and such. And my ISP is doing some maintenance so the connection is going up and down. This will continue for some days. 2003-07-10 ---------- New format: Digital Sonix & Chrome (*.dsc). Only used in the game Dragon's Breath. Thanks to Muerto for finding this oddity. 2003-07-08 ---------- Thanks to whoever it was that uploaded those "Unk-mods" lists ages ago. All the unknown mods have now been sorted into their right place. 2003-07-07 ---------- Added the last 1500 (or so) Megadrive GYM modules which have been lying in /upload since january. Because they have to be compressed one by one with YMAMP (to not occupy several megs each) it was a really boring job... But now it's done! I also shrunk this file a bit by removing all entries older than 2003-05-01. If you are interested in the old updates (as I'm sure you're not) you'll find them in /pub/documents/old_updates/. 2003-07-02 ---------- Zeromus uploaded 97 megs of modules (mostly XM) by Awesome. Thanks! 2003-07-01 ---------- Updated the index file today. Mice (I think it was him...) uploaded a bunch of Protracker mods by himself and Broom (ex-Deadbeat - deleted the Deadbeat dir). Thanks! 2003-06-18 ---------- New format: Spectrum Sound Tracker 1.1 (.st11). Yet another Spectrum tracker. Since there are two kinds of AY modules, Amadeus (AMAD) and emulated (EMUL, requires Z80 emulation), I renamed their folders accordingly, and also changed the file extensions to *.amad and *.emul. Some Spectrum music collections already use this naming convention and I don't want two formats to share extension (please don't remind me of *.mod now... :) 2003-06-17 ---------- New format: Peter Verswyvelen (.pvp) Here follows some Spectrum chaos... but now a bit more ordered than before. We can clearly see that there is a need for a system like PlaySID for AY/YM-music... maybe SNDH will become something like that in the future. (I've put "Spectrum" in front of the tracker names to avoid mixups) New format: SNDH (.snd). Quote from the SndPlayer page of Dead Hackers Society: "The .snd fileformat is short for "SNDH" which is a unified header and calling method for all types of YM-chipmusic. It means that one single player can replay most synth tunes without having a dozen of different players and calling methods." I guess this means that many of the SNDH tunes online here also exist duplicated as other formats. Not much to do about that I suppose. New format: Spectrum ST Song Compiler (.stc). AY-format mainly created with the Spectrum tracker of the same name. New format: Spectrum ASC Sound Master (.asc). Another Spectrum tracker format. New format: Spectrum Pro Tracker 1 (.pt1). Another Spectrum tracker format. New format: Spectrum Pro Tracker 2 (.pt2). See above... New format: Spectrum Pro Tracker 3 (.pt3). See above... New format: Spectrum Sound Tracker Pro (.stp). See above... New format: Spectrum SQ Tracker (.sqt). See above... New format: Spectrum Pro Sound Creator (.psc). See above... New format: Spectrum Fuxoft AY Language (.fxm). See above... New format: Spectrum Fast Tracker (.ftc). See above... New format: Spectrum Flash Tracker (.fls). See above... New format: Spectrum Global Tracker (.gtr). See above... New format: Spectrum ZXS (.zxs). See above... New format: YM (.ym). A format designed by Leonard/Oxygene for his emulator ST-Sound which was first made to emulate the Atari ST sound chip, but now covers multiple chips. Info about this and other AY/YM-formats comes from the docs of AY Emul by Sergey Bulba. Now over 80000 modules online! 2003-06-16 ---------- Jellybean uploaded a bunch of Protracker modules and also made some corrections. Thanks! Yet another step towards 100% accuracy... :) 2003-06-15 ---------- New format: JayTrax (.jsx) Muerto uploaded a collection of various exotic modules as well as many MOD/S3M/XM's. Thanks! 2003-06-13 ---------- New format: Amadeus (.amad). An emulated Spectrum format (the files begin with ZXAYAMAD) but Deliplayer 2 does not identify it as AY but as Amadeus, so I'll give it its own folder for now. Numerous small updates, removal of duplicates and so on. I'm done with that job out of town, and am now working on the masses of modules in /upload... thanks to all who have uploaded! And thanks to Jashiin for "corrections.txt", all corrections have now been done. 2003-05-04 ---------- DSLracer uploaded a big bunch of Protracker modules. Thanks! 2003-05-03 ---------- It came to my attention that several of the modules in Protracker/Heatbeat in fact is not made by Heatbeat. This info came from Heatbeat himself by way of the Mod Soul Brother site. So I moved the faulty modules to Unknown/Not by Heatbeat. Most of them are probably made by sample rippers who didn't care to write new sample texts. If you know the true author of any of them, let me know. Due to a configuration error from yours truly, the server did not respond to anything during the last 24 hours or so... my bad! 2003-05-01 ---------- Updated the index file today. 2003-04-27 ---------- New format: InStereo! (.is) New format: InStereo! 2.0 (.is20) New format: Jesper Olsen (.jo) New format: Mark Cooksey Old (.mco) New format: MusicMaker (.sdata/.ip/.ip.l/.ip.n). Three or four files to every module! It's madness. New format: Maniacs Of Noise Old (.mon). Same suffix as the "new" format, but now in separate drawers. New format: PokeyNoise (pn.). Each module must be accompanied by its icon (.info) which contains metadata. New format: SynTracker (.st) New format: SunTronic (.sun) Changed name of Jason Page to Jason Page Old, and Jason Page New to Jason Page, to be consistent with other module collections... At 21.00 today, the collection passed exactly 10 gigabytes - that's 10737418240 bytes of delicious music! :) 2003-04-26 ---------- Only minor updates the last month! I've got a new job in another city so I'm only home during weekends. But it will only be for another month or so. Added a bunch of AHX modules that had been lying unsorted in the upload area for too long. Now 676 AHX mods online! That's 2.5 Mb! :) 2003-03-25 ---------- The server was down all morning because of a power failure. I want a UPS for christmas... Hollywood uploaded some rare stuff he found in the attic :) Thanks for that! 2003-03-06 ---------- Gargoyle made two link banners for Modland. Thanks a lot! If you want to link to Modland from your web page, you'll find them in /pub/banners. Ijon Tichy cleared up some of the mess in the "unknown" dir of Protracker... thanks! I'll put the dir structure of Modland on another disk. If you notice some strange things (inaccessible dirs or something like that), please mail me (coma@modland.com). 2003-03-04 ---------- Thanks to Hollywood, Blackspawn, Tecon, Sinatra, Rolex (and of course Guffaw) and others who have uploaded lots of modules the last month. The updating has been quite sporadical (to say the least) but most of the new modules will be online soon... 2003-02-27 ---------- Deleted the final duplicates found by SoLo. He did a great job finding all those dupes. Big thanks to him! 2003-02-19 ---------- Deleted another bunch of duplicates found by SoLo. 2003-02-17 ---------- Removed the filter on *.tip.t-dialin.net. 2003-02-11 ---------- Deleted even more duplicates found by SoLo. Rolex uploaded missing Protracker mods by various musicians, including some really cool ones by Raatomestari, and some XM's by himself. Thanks! 2003-02-07 ---------- Deleted more duplicates found by SoLo. 2003-02-06 ---------- I've been adding more Protracker modules the last days. The 2000th Protracker composer has been added, and it was Terrax/Palace! My ISP apparently has gigantic problems... I've had no connection at all for 27 hours now. The problem will "maybe" be fixed tomorrow. Bostream is fast and cheap but when an error occurs they often have no idea what to do... 2003-02-01 ---------- Added a lot of Protracker modules (and when I say Protracker modules I mean Soundtracker/Noisetracker/Startrekker/Protracker/etc... you get it! :), mostly anonymous ones. Passed 25000 Protracker modules today, but of those 1756 are anonymous. Tell me if you can identify some of them! Also updated the index file today. 2003-01-31 ---------- New format: Wally Beben (.wb) Deleted more duplicates found by SoLo. 2003-01-29 ---------- New format: Electronic Music System (.ems). Made by Sean Connolly, it's a very competent and compact softsynth format which also supports samples. Very nice! You need DP2 to hear them! Check out Sean's web page at www.cosine-systems.com. Found out that Sound Images and Tiny Williams are in fact the same format. An updated version of Don Adan's Sound Images player has support for all variations of these two, so I'll put it all in the Sound Images drawer now. 2003-01-28 ---------- DeliPlayer 2 has been released! It's still in its beta stages and that's noticeable. But it's a great player which you should try at once! You'll find it at www.deliplayer.com. 2003-01-26 ---------- SoLo hunted down even more duplicates and bad rips. Thanks! My ISP seems to have had a lot of problems the last two days, problems related to the Slammer worm that has crawled around the net lately. One of the routers close to me suddenly doesn't know what to do with packets going to Modland. It throws them away for some hours, then it works normally for some hours. Strange... I've reported the problem so let's hope it goes away soon... 2003-01-23 ---------- New formats: Megadrive CYM (.cym) and GYM (.gym). This is ripped music from Sega Megadrive games. All modules (as I like to call them, even if they really are register dumps) are zlib compressed as this greatly reduces file sizes, often 30-40 times or even 100! To play these files I recommend YMAMP, a plugin for WinAmp. All Megadrive tunes (and other console formats I will add later) are sorted on game title. I don't have any high hopes of finding out who all the authors are, and it's probably only I who care anyway... 2003-01-21 ---------- Rolex uploaded his complete works 1995-2000. The earlier works were unfortunately lost somewhere... thanks Rolex! SoLo found a module renamer that works really well! Administrative time went down several percent. :) Thanks to him for this great find! 2003-01-14 ---------- New format: OctaMED MMDC (.mmdc) Compared the PSID collection with the latest HVSC. Made some additions, mostly new rips of tunes already present in the collection. No RealSIDs yet, maybe I will add those some other time (when they are supported by Deliplayer...) The number of modules is now over 60000! 2003-01-12 ---------- The server was down last night and this morning. I had to defrag the module disk. Added 373 AY modules ripped by SoLo. Thanks to him! As far as I know all modules are anonymous. They are now partly sorted on ripsource, I'll let them stay that way until I can get info on the authors. 2003-01-07 ---------- New format: Magnetic Fields Packer (mfp./smp.) New format: Legless Music Editor (.lme) New format: Thomas Hermann (thm./smp.). At least one of the modules in this format has all its samples as external files in the subdir "Instruments". Really ugly solution. New format: Unique Development (uds./smp.) New format: Pierre Adane Packer (.pap). Just like Synth Dream, requires "smp.set" in the same dir as the modules. New format: NovoTrade Packer (.ntp) New format: Paul Robotham (.dat/.ssd) New format: Synth Pack (.osp). Like Synth Dream, requires "smp.set" in the same dir as the modules. Lots of the exotic formats added the last days comes (of course) from Exotica and Wanted Team. Huge thanks to them for what they do for us Amiga music fans. 2003-01-06 ---------- New format: Professional Sound Artists (.psa) New format: Rob Hubbard Old (.rho) (also called "Rob Hubbard ST") New format: Paul Summers (.snk) New format: Tomy Tracker (.sg) New format: Soundcontrol (.sc) New format: The Musical Enlightenment (.tme) New format: Mike Davies (.md) New format: Speedy System (.ss) New format: Speedy A1 System (.sas) New format: Janko Mrsic-Flogel (.jmf) New format: Jason Page New (jpn./smp.) New format: Synth Dream (.sdr). Requires the sample data, called "smp.set", to be present in the same directory as the modules. Was about to add the Martin Walker format, but it's identical to Activision Pro. Removed the Chiptracker format again since I found out it's a Protracker packer. Converted and moved the modules. 2003-01-05 ---------- New format: Dave Lowe New (.dln) 2003-01-04 ---------- New format: Desire (.dsr) New format: Sean Connolly (.scn) New format: Dynamic Synthesizer (dns./smp.) New format: Silmarils (.mok) New format: Sound Master (.sm) New format: Howie Davies (.hd) New format: Special FX (.jd) New format: Chiptracker (.kris) New format: Kris Hatlelid (.kh). This format requires the playroutine, called "songplay" to be placed in the same directory as the modules. At least this is valid for Deliplayer, I don't know about other players. 2003-01-02 ---------- Note! I changed my mail address. The old one will be functioning for some weeks more, but from now on you can reach me on coma@modland.com. New format: Fred Gray (.gray) New format: Riff Raff (.riff) New format: Sean Conran (.scr) 2003-01-01 ---------- It's a new year, and the updating continues after a christmas break... New format: Images Music System (.ims) New format: Sound Programming Language (.spl) Lem made some more uploads. Thanks! 2002-12-15 ---------- DJ Speedstar uploaded a bunch of mods in different formats by various artists, including himself. Thanks a lot! Finally added the last of Jellybean's PT mods, and also some FC mods by him. Thanks again for uploading them. 2002-12-12 ---------- Sorry, very little updating the last weeks. Filtered out *.tip.t-dialin.net because of a warez-uploading idiot who couldn't take a hint (kicked him 3 times). Sorry for any module fans on that network. 2002-11-21 ---------- Vegard Myksvoll (Jellybean) uploaded a bunch of his Protracker mods. Thanks a lot to him! 2002-11-17 ---------- The server was down for a couple of hours last night due to upgrading and a bit of reconfiguring. 2002-11-10 ---------- New format: Mark Cooksey (mcr./mcs.). This format requires prefix instead of suffix. Ugly. But there is a one-file version of it which doesn't. Lem found some more duplicates which were removed. Thanks! 2002-11-09 ---------- You will now find the index mentioned below in the same dir as this file. Zipped for your convenience. I'll update it after every major module update. 2002-11-08 ---------- New format: Steve Barrett (.sb) New format: Hippel 7V (.hip7) Lem requested an index of all modules. I promised I'll put one online soon! 2002-11-03 ---------- New format: Paul Shields (.ps) Michael Doering informed me of the authors of several "unknown" custom modules, and some misplaced ones. Thanks! 2002-11-02 ---------- Ijon Tichy contributed with his modules in Protracker, Digibooster and Digibooster Pro. Thanks! DJ Speedstar uploaded a bunch of Ad Lib modules in different formats. Thanks to him too. I decided to put all Ad Lib formats in one drawer. They are too many to be mixed up with the rest of the formats. This affects only the AMusic drawer which until now was my only Ad Lib format. Almost all Ad Lib modules are now by "unknown composer" but I will soon sort them better. 2002-10-31 ---------- New format: OctaMED MMD2 (.mmd2). Yep, it is seldom seen... Essential Sound uploaded his works in Musicline Editor and OctaMED MMD1-3. Thank you! Also thanks to Guffaw of course, who uploaded another 2 gigs of modules, this time sorted ones so they went straight into the collection. Now back to the unsorted Guffaw-uploads (only 7 gigs left of those...). 2002-10-28 ---------- New format: Forgotten Worlds (.fw). Only used in the game with the same name. New format: DSS (.dss). Nothing is known about this format, but Deli plays it. New format: Dave Lowe-WT (.dl). Dave Lowe's original format adapted by Don Adan/ Wanted Team to be playable in Eagleplayer. New format: General DigiMusic (.gdm). 'The internal format of the "Bells, Whistles and Sound Boards" library', according to the Aplayer docs. New format: CBA (.cba). Another obscure format described as "Heretics CBA Noise driver" at some ripper page. New format: David Hanney (.dh). Only used in the game Tearaway Thomas. Changed name of the Martin Walker format to Activision Pro. Goto80 uploaded his "almost complete" works (Protracker+PSID), thanks a lot! 2002-10-25 ---------- Finished sorting all of SoLo's uploads (from august...), big thanks to him. The 20000th Protracker module has been added. It was: "The Party 5", a co-op between Subject (nowadays called Prophet) and Blue Fox! 2002-10-14 ---------- New format: Quadra Composer (.emod) New adress for the server: ftp.modland.com. The old adress will probably be valid for a couple more months. 2002-09-18 ---------- New format: NSF (converted NES music). I've had these lying around for a long time, not considering them to be modules, but now as I found a Deliplayer for them, I thought I should include them. Added around 1300 YM (converted Atari music) modules, compiled by Exotica. NOTE! In Jochen Hippel's dir, there are several files that end with "_replay". Those are not modules, but external replay routines needed to play some of the modules, and they have to be in the same dir as the modules. This solution sucks but hopefully the routines will be built into the next version of YMPlayer for Deliplayer. 2002-09-16 ---------- New format: Tiny Williams (.tiny) Deleted around 100 Protracker duplicates today. By hand! Duplic8 missed them! 2002-09-15 ---------- New format: AMusic (AdLib tracker) (.amd) New format: Delta Packer (packed Delta Music) (.dp) Note: I usually don't include packer formats, this is an exception because it is so unlike the original format and cannot be converted back. New format: Games Music Creator (.gmc) New format: MaxTrax (.mtx) Note: There is no PC player available that I know of. Deliplayer 2 will hopefully play this format (when it's released some day in the next decade...) New format: Ron Klaren (.rk) 2002-09-14 ---------- New format: Asylum (.asm) New format: Music Editor song+samples (the grandfather of MMD0-3) (.med) New format: Vortex (converted Spectrum music, Yamaha chip emulator) (.vtx) 2002-09-13 ---------- The updates have been very slow the last days. I decided to just stuff in the modules in the right places as fast as possible without taking notes. It's the updating of this file that causes the slow speed, so I'll put that on hold until the Guffaw-additions are done. Some interesting notes (new formats, uploads from authors etc.) will still be put in this file, but not everything. A newsbit: I'm planning on building a web interface for this site. It all depends on if and how soon I can learn HTML, PHP and SQL... As always, direct your questions and such to this addy: coma@underjord.net 2002-09-07 ---------- Shout uploaded a bunch of his Protracker mods and XM's. Thanks! Zeg uploaded a bunch of Protracker mods by Hein and SLL. Thanks to him too! Now over 40000 modules online! 2002-09-03 ---------- New Composer 669 composers: Leviathan, Mosaic and Stalker. Additions in AHX: Tang and Tommy. 2002-09-01 ---------- Gah, a whole week without updates... sorry! Well, here we go: New Fasttracker 2 composers: Andreas Viklund, B. B.

New formats: Mad Tracker 2 (with composer: Korapi), Ultratracker (Krystall and Umgah), Farandole Composer (Krystall) and Extreme Tracker (Leinad). None of these can be played in Deliplayer, but all can be played in ModPlug. This is actually quite shocking for me. Nevertheless, the number of formats are now 75! 2002-08-24 ---------- Moved all mods by Hydlide into Dreamfish, as they are the same person... Did the same maneuver for Bad Karma, now known as James. New Protracker composers: Basstard, BKH (as standalone, he otherwise teamed up with NHP), Gash, Havoc, Heizahn, Hellrazor, Hexolon, Hifi, Hoplite, Hornet, Hoshi, Human, Hunajaherrat, Ibanez, Inspekdah Deck, IQ, Jase, Jazz (FR), Jean9, Jed, Jora, JS, Jurgen, K3, Kari Melkko, Keith303, Khyron, Killroy, King, Klim, Kookai, Kyzer, Nebula, Necromancer, Non Plus Ultra, Olp, Opal, Optic, Piccolo, Quark, Thrasher, Ultim, Ultimo, Undertaker, Wavemaker, Weasel, Whiskas, Wildchild and Wire.

After deleting the ones already present here at Modland, about 5000 modules remained and were added. Author updates are too many to list... Probably there are still duplicates, because of the bad ripping/sorting/naming conventions in the SID world. Also renamed the new modules to *.psid. The *.sid extension has always been used for SidMon modules! 2002-07-30 ---------- New Protracker composers: C.o.n.s, Calvin, Caramel, Carebear, Carlos, Carter, Case, Cash, CC Catch, Chanel5, Channel4, Chaser, Chipper, Chipy, Chris6, Chrono, Chrylian, Coco Pops, Colant, Colorbird, Cosmiq, Count Zero, Counterpoint, Creator, Cyberius, Cyborg and Subliminal.

Now over 30000 modules online. 2002-07-27 ---------- Megaman has changed handle to Breeze, which clashes with a finnish composer (this of course happened years ago).

It was my very first module (that and "Robotron 2" was on the Soundtracker 2 disk...) and made by Banana/World of Wonders. Nice! 2002-07-25 ---------- More chip additions today.

Phew! Added a new format: Follin Player II, with the excellent Ghouls 'n Ghosts modules by Tim Follin. Added a M.O.N. module by Maniacs of Noise.

Only one anonymous module so far. Additions in Screamtracker 3: Dune, Purple Motion, Skaven + some anonymous. Now over 26000 modules! 2002-07-21 ---------- I realised that most of my "Fasttracker" modules really are Taketracker ones. The problem is that both programs use the MOD extension for saving, and can even use the M.K. identifier. To make things even more complicated, I have some mods in the Protracker drawer that really are 4 channel Taketracker modules, that look like Protracker in every aspect... except that Deliplayer identifies them as Taketracker. I plan on sorting out this mess when I get the time. For now, I will continue to use FT as extension for Fasttracker/Taketracker mods and place 4 channel Taketracker mods (with "M.K.") in the Protracker drawer. Maybe I should sort out the Soundtracker and Noisetracker (etc.) from the PT drawer as well... New composer in Composer 669: CC Catch.

New composer in Impulsetracker: Ivory. 2002-07-15 ---------- Added some mods in Protracker: Goto80, Cee-Dee. Discovered that Titan and Uncle Tom are the same person.
