So, if you don't have old enough PC with MS-DOS or Windows 9x, you have to choose from modern trackers. If you've liked FT2, your options are Sk@le or Milky. In my opinion, Milky is more suitable for chip music, because it has sample drawing tool, so you can create all your samples from scratch, instead of ripping from other's modules or generating them in external software.

Also, FT2 has nibbles smile

Personally I think Milky would be easier to use (I've never used FT2).

I am learning Milky and rather enjoying it. Just curious if there were any specific reasons to choose one over the other?
