Title: bootracker, ym player
Post by: jp48 on 10:34, 19 December 10
Hi all,
New here, does anyone has a manual for bootracker or some hints how to use it ?
Also, is there a native YM player for CPC(464), preferable for YM3 ?


Thanks for advance !

Hi !

The only one i know is kit AY by MADRAM , you can found it here (http://cpcrulez.fr/zip/index.php?download=1912xx6b697461792e7a6970)
A page in French there (http://cpcrulez.fr/coding_music_KITAY.htm)

On Windows , you can use YM cruncher by F-Key that to produce AYC files for this kit.

I forgot to say , afaik the kit does not play directly YM files but you have everything needed to convert to its format (AYC) from YM.

Thanks, I will check this ! 
Any tips to bootracker, I'm building a native system to generate bootracker song files, no problems to edit/add channels but can't find how to play (there's play in menu, when hitting it, bootracker says press a key..., I've tried different variations but can't hear anything).
Thanks !

I don't have a manual for BooTracker, but it was published on an Amstrad Action covertape, so this link to issue 92 of AA (http://cpcoxygen.fxwebdevelopment.com/aa_depot/display.php?ISSNUM=092&MINIFIX=92&ISSMONTH=May&ISSYEAR=1993&PAGES=60) may be of help. The instructions for BooTracker are on pages 4 and 5.

Thanks Nich, this helps a lot, there were some keys I didn't find whatever I tried. Works nicely in PalmOS Tungsten,  with Caprice, one of the best emulators for palmtops (PocketPC, Palm) I've seen.
