screamtracker -> fasttracker2 -> midi-synths(sequencers) -> pd
but starting to look on tracking again, when remembering how fast you could "write" a "complete" tune by quickly moving with the keyboard on the "pattern grid" and plottin notes and effects...

Just curious, how many of you started computer music due to mod trackers, and which ones were your favorites?
I started with ScreamTracker, but finished out using Impulse Tracker (I was a newbie).

hi steffen, i'd like to refer you to the right keywords: covox speech thing & disney sound source in wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covox_Speech_Thing
Btw, the first MOD player I've ever used, had plans for a Covox straight in its manual. I didn't build one, though I really SHOULD have. It would have bridged the gap between 1-bit PC Speakers and the 320$ 8-bit SoundBlaster that my parents had.
Note that the 1-bit PC Speaker didn't really sound like 1-bit in that program, due to some serious oversampling: The program introduced ultrasounds which were then hardware-lowpassed into intermediate speaker positions. Still, a covox would have sounded much better... or at least, a cable going out to a real speaker...
