SDL Mixer supports MODs of several formats:  .MOD, .S3M, .XM, and .IT.  I  realize you have to have a relatively new tracker for the Amiga to generate some of these but they work well.  Likewise sdlBasic has been ported to AOS 4 and MOS so it should be easy to make new demos and programs to use these formats.  (And a converter exists to export them to C++ in order to compile them.)

I don't know if the ProTracker event triggering mechanism is supported by the MikMod player in SDL_Mixer or not.

@Harima_Kun

Med Soundstudio version 2 is going to be coming out soon for PC and possibly Mac.  That should be closer to Octamed style.  BTW they're even working on an AmigaOS 4 version (with fewer features though).
