zorggn / Lovetracker

A module player (for now) written with the LÖVE framework.

No versions, use the commit history to keep track. :V (Will probably do a major rewrite eventually, pushing this from 0.anything to 1.0)

Info

• S3M module parsing and playback works.

• Organya parsing and playback works.

• Needs löve version 11.x

Usage

• Drop an .s3m (s3m.* if amiga order) file onto the window. as3m also works, though without any sound whatsoever.
• Alternatively, drop an .org (org.* works too for reasons) file onto the window.

ScreamTracker 3 playroutine features

• Buffer-based timing for accurate playback and tracking.
• Support for both 16-bit and stereo samples.
• Channel (voice) matrix view.
• Global stats view.
• Piano keyboard view (shows both note and corrected instrument period values, shows arpeggio state.)
• Pattern view (smooth-scrolling available.)
• All effects supported by ST3 implemented (SFx isn't for obvious reasons, S0x because i'm lazy to add an OALS effect object.)

Key layout:

- left arrow: offset pattern view by 1 channel to the right
- right arrow: offset pattern view by 1 channel to the left
- up arrow: go to previous order
- down arrow: go to next order
- w: increase tempo
- s: decrease tempo
- a: decrease speed
- d: increase speed
- spacebar: toggle smooth scrolling

Organya playroutine features

• Buffer-based timing for accurate playback and tracking.
• Channel (voice) matrix view.
• Global stats view.
• Org-02 subtype support only.

TODO

• Eternal code cleanup.

• Code better (graphical) interface.

• Allow editing and saving (since this would be a tracker, not just a player...)

• S3M modules might have their cw/t fields be set to something totally alien to scream tracker 3, so that should be handled.

• Implement a crude AdLib/OPL2 synth so that modules that use that kind of instruments also produce sound.

• Implement Org-03 (and Org-01 if specs can be inferred/gathered) playback.

• Eventual support for other modules (or not, time will tell.)

• Formats i aim to understand and work on:

  • MOD (Started, but oh god is it a flustercluck)
  • AHX/HVL (Started, but need to understand source before it can be more cleanly implemented)
