i read a recent post by _133 (http://chipmusic.org/forums/topic/7374/ … -question/) about using music protracker on his STe, and i have had the exact same question, except with my atari 65xe (which is 8bit, of course). yerzmyey answered his question well, and it makes sense to me. but i have two related questions-

btw, i use an sio2sd device rather than a floppy drive to load .atr files onto my 65xe.

1) is it true for music protracker that i must import samples into the program in order to get non-noise sounds? i cannot figure out how to get non-noise waveforms using the program alone.

2) using an sio2sd rather than a diskette, how would i do what yerzmyey said to do in the other thread? (i'll quote him below..) would that still work on an 8bit atari?

yerzmyey's answer regarding STe:
"Well, if You consider using Atari ST/e with ST ProTracker, You can solve the samples' problem the way I did: You can use any Amiga or PC tracker, collect required samples, load them and save an 'empty' 4ch MOD file (with samples only). Then You can easily load the MOD into Atari ST/e, with normal standard PC diskette (720K). Then You can make Your music on Atari, having all the prepared samples available."

i have looked and looked for clear documentation answering these questions, but the only documents i have located are in polish. (even after i google-translated that jawnt it still didn't answer my questions.)

thanks everybody.
