Title: An on-calc music tracker for the TI-84+ with export features!
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on December 28, 2011, 11:47:52 pm
In the past, there have been several music players and creation tools for calculators, which, in most cases, were pretty great. However, all of them usually lacked at least one of the following:

-The ability to create music on-calc
-Save/Load/Export features, to use your work in a game or just to listen to it
-TI-83 Plus and TI-84 Plus compatibility

Recently, TBO_Yeong has released one music creation tool that does the 3 things above: MUSEINC (http://ourl.ca/13530). Tonight, version 1.1 is out (http://ourl.ca/13530.msg220270#msg220270)!

MUSEINC is a music tracker that lets you edit chiptune-like music directly on your TI-83+ series calculator and export it to standalone playable music file without the need of a computer or even an ASM compiler. Not only that, but it even has the option to export your song into Axe Parser data that can be used directly in a game you are making!

The only downside it might have (although this has been greatly improved over the past versions) is that since the tracker is written in BASIC using libraries, previewing tracks, modifying notes and switching pages may be a little slow, but otherwise it works pretty great and should hopefully be useful for those who got headphones and a 2.5mm adapter.

Mine does export, but you need to include a player in the source.

Actually Yeong's kinda includes a player in it I think, if you export to standalone file, and in game data format you need to put the music playing routines in the game or something, but I think if the file size isn't overly large it's usually not a big problem.

That reminds me, I need to give your program a try eventually. :P
