ProTracker2.3d

ProTracker is a rewrite of the classic Amiga ProTracker MOD file player. What it does is to play audio files encrypted in the archaic MOD format that was used on the old Amiga computers and it gives users the opportunity to mix them.

Retro feel

Being based on the Amiga original MOD music tracker, ProTracker brings the same heavily pixelated GUI with basic mixing options. ProTracker can import all MOD files and then help users sample each available beat for a simple mix. Because they were made for the '80s and '90s computers MOD files are usually extremely light and come in sizes of just a couple of kilobytes so moving them around is extremely easy nowadays.Pro Tracker is also very light on resources and, since it doesn't need any previous setup, you can copy it on any USB flash drive in order to take it with you whenever you want to start a party with a retro vibe. You can do all of this stuff while carrying tons of lightweight MOD files.

Simple interface

Although retro trackers don't have the user-friendliest GUIs, ProTracker is basic enough to help you learn how to mix samples in just a couple of minutes. All users need to have is a sample database, some mixing skills, and a penchant for retro sounds. Once you know how the song should sound like, mixing options allow you to set song pattern length, tempo, and many other options. Also, each part of a song can be selected and modified the way you like it.

Conclusion

This MOD tracker embodies perfectly the feel of a retro music player and sample mixer. Those that might want to learn mixing on old MOD music files can learn to do it with the small selection of songs ProTracker comes with. This way, you'll gain enough experience to mix MOD files at retro parties. ProTracker is the perfect portable mixing app because it’s easy to carry it around and offers straightforward configuration settings.
