Octalyzer

About

Originally born on the Amiga, this tracker expanded the standard 4-channel barrier to offer 8 channels of digital sound. It achieved this by splitting the timing of the channels in software. Versions were ported over to/adapted for the Atari ST to give composers a wider arrangement canvas.

Octalyser STe however went further and added support for six or eight channels as well as supporting higher quality samples (base note of 20 or 25 kHz instead of the regular 16 kHz). After some time Octalyser gained support for UMP plugins that offered higher quality replay routines, or replay routines that was tailored for demo or game development, the tracker also featured Falcon support once it was available. Many classic STe/Falcon demo and game musics have been made in Octalyser STe over the years.
