Hey all,
I'm interested in making music with the Amiga using Protracker. I would love to do it on the original hardware. I know you can easily emulate the whole proces, but I would love to have an Amiga anyway so it would me cool to make music on it. I did Google but it's all kind of vague.
What kind of Amiga do i need?
what kind of hardware do I need?
what kind of software do I need?
Any tips?
I'd love to hear from you all (:
Thanks in advance!

Thanks so much! I'll be off now!
Probably you'll want to look into Amiga Explorer: http://www.amigaforever.com/ae/
unless anyone else chimes in id recommened an A1200 with a harddrive
ive never used protracker and there seem to be different versions
otherwise people have made plenty of amiga music on a standard A500 so im sure there will be something to make music on if you only manage to get one of those

Why not read this thread in which you posted? I believe the use of Protracker was addressed.
Oh, and CM.O has my vote on changing the word bubble to "What kind of ____ do I need?"

I'll check that out, I thought it kind of turned into a flamethread haha
from what I understand the most important thing you're going to need is a metric shit-ton of patience

Amiga Explorer is a pain in the ass to work with.
cerror and I use a HxC floppy emulator. Works like a charm!
We use Protracker 1.3b and the Amiga 500! :-)
amiga 500 + protracker on a disk + some samples, or just load in workbench files and make loops out of them.
tbh if you've not done it before use WinUAE, you're not missing anything sonically by not having hardware.

If you read through all the posts you would have realized that it didn't end up as a flamethread. Lots of good info on there.
