MEdit, OctaMED, SNES, and so on
Amiga用8chトラッカーOctaMEDの変種で、ソフトウェア・メーカーOceanで、SNESゲームのサウンドトラック制作に実際に用いられいたMEdit。DOS用プログラムが先月、アップロードされている。どこから発掘されたのやら。http://t.co/z5c0BxyWhN
2013-10-23 03:58:19McAlbyさんもSNESゲームの制作にOctaMEDを用いたことを述べている。SNES/SFCも8chだし、また使い馴れたトラッカーライクのツールという理由から、Ocean以外にもこのツールを利用、あるいは改作利用したメーカーはいたんじゃなかろうか。
2013-10-23 04:10:38Super Mario Kart SNES Dance Mix Amiga OctaMed: http://t.co/jtIhlfDNwr 90年代初期に作られたようだが、違和感がない。Dance Mixではなく、原曲の再現度に対して。
2013-10-23 04:14:44@_lemon http://t.co/z5c0BxyWhN It seems someone uploaded MEdit, the in-house tracker for Ocean's games on the SNES. It's mysterious. :o
2013-10-23 04:48:20@aka_obi hah will take a look at it, also some pals were at ocean back then iirc will ask about it :)
2013-10-23 04:49:43@aka_obi aha i'll ask Barry about it when i get a chance :)
2013-10-23 04:53:29@_lemon Oh, thank you! Recently, by pure chance, I knew Joe McAlby had used OctaMED for Asterix and Obelix: http://t.co/h1TP7dj6kf
2013-10-23 05:04:03@_lemon So I guess other European SPC musicians might have used OctaMED or adapted the tool for SNES titles at that time.
2013-10-23 05:08:22@aka_obi octamed was a great little tracker! lots of 90s hit records were made in that software! :)
2013-10-23 05:04:59@_lemon The fact is unbelievable to me! I'm interested in diffusion of Amiga as a development hardware. Amazing.
2013-10-23 05:26:02@aka_obi OctaMed is different to this one (amiga), this one was custom internal Ocean software, might have imported OctaMed files tho :)
2013-10-23 05:06:54@aka_obi a lot of euro musicians used their own replays / custom drivers n stuff :) loads of folks had .mod replays (pretty simple)
2013-10-23 05:08:19@_lemon Really. It reminds me there was an enormous amount of music routines in the C64 scene.
2013-10-23 05:16:45@aka_obi yea! a good pal was working on snes stuff + a lot of it centered around 4/8chn Amiga sound routines with customisations -> snes
2013-10-23 05:18:30@_lemon @aka_obi yeah, also check out the ocean loader page! http://t.co/zD18U3UQeU he details his music routine here
2013-10-23 05:18:39@LouisGorenfeld @_lemon Thanks for the info. These days I was surprised to know Paul Hughes and Ste Ruddy were from the same province.
2013-10-23 05:40:23@aka_obi it made loads of sense at the time as you could have an approximate live preview of effects like realtime echo etc without a devkit
2013-10-23 05:31:20@_lemon It's important it was done w/out the process of compiling. I feel the same when I watch goto80 playing defmon. Live preview is ace!
2013-10-23 05:53:53@_lemon .mod format was not necessarily simplified, right?
2013-10-23 05:32:18@LouisGorenfeld @_lemon I think music routines by the two and Rob have played important role in the VGM and demo scene since '80s...
2013-10-23 05:44:11@aka_obi @LouisGorenfeld for sure, very true :) Karsten Obarski as well - very important
2013-10-23 05:47:59@LouisGorenfeld @aka_obi http://t.co/u9EO6tvAUF don't worry about the factual dispute rubbish on there, wikipedia idiocy, 100% correct info
2013-10-23 05:50:47@_lemon @LouisGorenfeld Of course, obarski is a keyman. :) In even the HVSC we can hear digi samples from Ultimate Soundtracker.
