Well, here I am. No matter how nice the graphics of all those Soundtrackers, Noisetrackers, Startreckers, Whizzy-Dizzy-Trackers might ever be, there is absolutely no point in using such system-unfriendly programs on an AMIGA. I used the Soundtracker quite a while back in 1987, when it first appeared here in Germany, but then I had only 512k back in those old days, and I couldn't have cared less about system-friendlyness and multitaskability, with no RAM left to spare. Now I have lots of RAM, lots of harddisk-space, am running system 2.0 even on my beloved old 1000 - why even bother with those braindead non-multitasking ancient soundtrackers and their clones ? MED 3.0 is the only music program I use at the moment. JamCracker Pro looked also nice (it is using the req.library), but it didn't work under 2.0, so I don't use it. Period. And that goes also for all those music programs that don't multitask. Period again. Please stop flaming this great MED just because it hasn't got nifty graphics. And if you want them so urgent: Draw them yourself. Send them to Teijo. But stop complaining about a program you got for free. Best regards, Holger -- Holger Lubitz | holgerl@amiux.uucp Kl.
