Trackers: The Sound of 16-Bit

Caption notes

Ahoy uses Soundtracker on the Amiga to explain how music was arranged on early computers. Notes sit in rows across channels, and groups of rows form patterns that can be reused. Later module files packaged the song data and audio samples together, so the recipient no longer needed a separate sample disk. The video uses that change to explain how playback can assemble the music in real time from notes, samples and effect instructions.
