Music on me 1200

Hi,

That will be workable, 1.1 . But I'm not sure if 1.1 was able to load samples into fast ram?

But it did have basic MIDI capabilities I believe.

Well that's plenty of space either way. You might just keep the HD if it is working well. Use the CF in your PCMCIA SLOT instead (a cheap adapter needed for that).

Amiga programs are typically pretty small compared to todays computing. Octamed comes on just 2 floppies , back in the day. That's less than 2MB if they were completely filled.

In fact bazza1975, If you are just getting into the Amiga hardware - I recommend stick with the HD.

Oh, and Octamed is completely hard drive installable, no problems.

But 'sounds' like you're on your way

Well I guess it could be, right? Not really into that kind of music. But to the question is SS any good for it composing features and the Paula sound, I say yes.

@Cubase LE - This is precisly why I still like Amiga & SS. That stuff is crap. Skips. Crashes. Complex. Maybe when the 8 core super pooper with a terabyte of memory comes out a winblows machine will work with music.

Outside of that rant, I just like the simplicity and directness of tracker composition. A wall of buttons does not make me feel 'creative'. And there's a challenge in making something cool with limited resources and fidelity.
