PT-1210 Mk1 Protracker Turntable Software for Amiga

[danwood]

Does this software require the Amigas to be linked via nullmodem/parnet cables?  Been trying to find info on how to use it, but details/info is very sketchy.  Looks cool, but would like more info on how to use/set up.

The thumbnail of the video says it all: beatmatching skills not included

Not worried about that bit, I started DJing in clubs in the late 90s

There's nothing sketchy about the info, it's all in the README included in the archive.

Ah ok, with respect I found the information on the announcements, video and several forum threads sketchy.  The info is probably all in the readme like you said, but I hadn't downloaded it as A) Thought I probably needed a link cable which I don't have, and B) Was at work on OS X not back to my Amiga yet.

Well "sketchy" means shady or conspicuous, I'd say you mean "slightly lacking" because there's nothing dangerous about PT-1210 .

Seems it means something different on different sides of the pond:

sketchy
adjective
1. not thorough or detailed.
"the information they had was sketchy"
synonyms:   incomplete, inadequate, limited, patchy, scrappy, bitty, fragmentary, rudimentary; More

2. (NORTH AMERICAN informal)
dishonest or disreputable.
"once the story does come out, the fact that you tried to hide it will seem sketchy"

Over here in UK it's the first one

The requirements may not have been clear and I can correct that on the web, but basically it is because you don't need anything but an Amiga. Why did you think a parallel cable was needed if it wasn't mentioned anywhere?

Yeah that would be useful, brilliant news too.  Maybe because I always needed one when linking two Amigas for music (Octamed etc.) back in the day.  But nice to hear that, will give it a download this week.
