A few months back I discovered a really neat Amiga Protracker MOD player called Protracker win32. The module player was designed to look and function exactly like the original Protracker and included a very accurate playback routine and the nostalgic look and feel of the real software was sort of neat.
I was amazed when I realized a lot of the editing features were functional. However, since it was aimed to be mainly a playback tool there was no save function. As a result I sort of put it aside.
However, very recently I decided to email Olav Sørensen, the author of the software, to let him know that there are probably lots of people who'd love to be able to use the save function and almost immediately he completes and uploads a build that features save functionality! Now, this project isn't complete. The save/load sample routine is still not implemented, so for now this is a tool mostly for Amiga/Protracker users who wish to work on projects they already created but I can confirm the following very promising things:
-Playback routines are very good and accurate!
-Emulation of Paula filters!
-Identical feel to Protracker!
-Modules saved/edited with PT32 work great on Amiga!
-Open source, easy to compile for Linux (probably OS X, too).!
