Free Music Downloads / [alt/rock] puppet man d_adrian...

Last post by Exhale - October 25, 2024, 17:32:41

(two attachments, see the second comment for the vocal part of the archive - INSTRUCTIONS, download both parts, put them in a directory *together [*recommended but not vital] when you open the ompt file it will ask you where the vocals are, point it to "puppet manXlimit.opus")

[edit : reuploaded because the mix of the previous file was uploaded unchanged from the full quality vocals, this has been updated to take the lower quality vocals' difference in mind, and is a bit more clear than the previous upload]

Words:

you think you think so special
we're all tools and so are you
the corporate clone beside you
is another fool too
escape is just not possible
if you wanna survive
we all sell our souls to feed the overlords
who rule all our lives

I wish I could comfort you
with less tragic news
but you dont need such pandering
we all need to know the truth
again and again every time
our lives are minutely controlled
loss of privacy grows so damn old

so wake up, you fucken puppet man
your mind squeezed by the hand deep in your ass
dont pretend you dont see this
they laugh and make a fool of you
dont pretend you dont care either
your whole life mr puppet man, you cant not care

we live in this hell
because the 1 percenters
keep taking it all
to feed their insatiable greed~
endless endless greed~
it has no bounds it knows no limits
it eats and eats and eats~

mr puppet man...

I wish I could comfort you
with less tragic news
but you dont need such pandering
we all need to know the truth~

mr puppet man
rise above it all
so wake up

I'm going to a football match tomorrow where I intend to stand up and cheer for my favourite tennis player. Just because I'm a windup merchant.

IF you don't care about OpenMPT, then what are you even doing on its official forum?

Also woke voodoo sentience? Wtf, what are you smoking, dude? It's just a computer program... you're talking about nonexistent things.

Yeah, Even currently developed software often still has problems... Don't care for OpenMPT it is strangely assembled probably too many developers going in different directions...

It also seems to be imbued with a 'Woke Malevolent Voodoo Sentience' that infects the user judging by responses on here which are hardly ever helpful...

Maybe use more up to date software that is still developed/supported? Hmmm I wonder where you might find said software? nope, can't think.

General Chatter / Anybody Experienced with BeRoT...

Last post by SewerSide - October 22, 2024, 15:07:49

Couple of problem areas...

First I cannot get a BTI instrument that is saved to reload anything once brought back in, no curves or settings or samples come back in... The BTI is usually a 11-13kb file but does diddly I have tried all kinda things but nothing works...

Probably not 'seeing' something...

The other - My 2009 version works fine as shows scrolling 'arrow ticks' in the menus on the module grid allowing scrolling off-screen menus back on... Trying later versions like 2013 & the latest 2015 I cannot scroll diddly, no ticks are there no matter what theme is used there is no 'clicking where they should be' that works...



I was thinking maybe it's because I am using XP but maybe not..

I don't care much about the last problem because my 2009 version works fine in that respect but is not available anywhere it seems the old versions are overwritten with newer ones... Was just curious if anybody else had similar issue...

eMails to Mr Rosseaux been going unanswered, BeRoTracker has no help file, text, changelog that comes with, nothing

Help and Questions / Re: Resampling samples to new ...

Last post by Saga Musix - October 21, 2024, 19:31:18

I think it might be possible to amend the resampling dialog with an option specifically for MOD files to update pattern notes based on the resampling ratio, just like it's already possible to automatically adjust offset commands.

Or... is there another option to Transpose all notes by a instrument number for all patterns?

OpenMPT's Find and Replace functionality is rather powerful and exactly suited for this task. On the "Find" page, set the sample number to find, and then in the "Replace" tab chose the required transposition amount.

Help and Questions / Re: Loading in WAV files, how ...

Last post by Saga Musix - October 21, 2024, 19:28:29

There's always rooms for improvement, though in this particular case I have difficulties finding any obvious and easy things that could be implemented right away... Whenever OpenMPT loads a sample or instrument, its properties are immediately converted to the target module format, so the information about the original sample rate is not available anymore after the sample has been loaded into a MOD file for instance. In general this is necessary because we don't want to give the impression that some feature is available and then after saving a file it's suddenly gone. But I'm always open for direct suggestions and see what can be done.

One thing that may be helpful is that sample rate conversion can be done in a batch by shift-clicking the resampling icon. That way the resampling is applied to all loaded samples and doesn't have to be done one by one.

Help and Questions / Resampling samples to new freq...

Last post by Magnar - October 21, 2024, 10:56:07

Hi,

If the song is already created, but samples was loaded with an IT-format but later saved to PT format, there case now is that several samples in the song patterns are using notes above B-6. Which makes them above supported in PT2 format. The was probably because sample-frequencies went out of bound of Amiga compability when first loaded.

If I use the resample (CTRL+R) feature on the samples that plays notes above B-6, I can downsample so that the samples works within correct notes of C-4 to B-6.

However, when doing this, is there a possibility to rearrange also all notes used by the sample to the new downsampled frequency? So for example, if the note was earlier played A-7, I downsample it and wants it to play A-6 instead. Is there a way to either make that automatic change when you resample throughout the whole module and all its patterns?

Or... is there another option to Transpose all notes by a instrument number for all patterns?

Cheers Magnar

Hi Saga Musix,

Long time and great to see you are still so active!

I was hoping there was some sort of easier conversion-option for the musician on beginners level to create Amiga Modules, that are not that familiar with calculating or figure out frequencies and convert the samples manually the way you described.

I do understand this is a feature not currently available, but would it be possible in future development to maybe automate this process? In such a way that the musician only have to load a WAV file and type in a root note of PT2.3D C-3 and it converts per default to it?

Reason is that I am trying to teach how to make Amiga modules out to new people, and the process of handling samples they exports from their DAWs are very hard entry-curve for many of them to convert and make it work in a PT module format.

It would greatly increase the interest of making Amiga Modules for the musicians I am currently working with.

Cheers Magnar
