Hello!
I have owned an Amstrad CPC for several years, mostly using it to run games and demos. I always wanted to compose some AY tunes but never gave a try. It's time to change that 8)
I have zero experience into music composition (all platforms included) so my first tries will certainly be poor. I hope that people around here will give me their opinion to make me progressing.
Any musicians using Arkos Tracker 2 here?

Hello, mate, and welcome! Great nickname!
Arkos Tracker 2 is super easy and user-friendly, but you should have at least some tracker experience.
This is my first song ever... Just an intro adapted from something you may guess :o
I think it's bad but I had some fun :D
Do you know where I could find a tutorial to compose a chiptune step by step? (not a tracker manual, but a tutorial to compose)
UP!
Please help me!
(if ever such a tutorial doesn't exist, is it possible that an experienced musician explains me the worst points on my music try, and what and how I can improve myself? I would be very grateful for that)
Sorry, I don't want to hijack your thread but ... is there a stanndalone player on CPC so that I can listen to that AKS file ?
I actually don't know how to do this... Help!
On the original topic, the article pgs 42-44 in this ACU gives a very good intro to translating traditional music to the psg -
