You have 3 channels to work with. The finished arrangements can be saved as a (.MUS) file, which will play back using an interrupt, so you can incorporate them in your own programs. BooTracker used firmware sound routines, rather than directly addressing the [[PSG]], so was unsuitable for demo or more advanced game use. Nonetheless, it was capable of very good results, not least because of the firmware's 100Hz sound-generating frequency. Perhaps the most impressive product of BooTracker was the 'Jean-Michel Jarre Demo Disque' by [[SWiB]] of [[The Underground]]. == Links == * {{CPCPower|8683}}* {{CPCPower|8675|Jean-Michelle Jarre Demo Disque}} [[Category:Applications]] [[Category:Music and sound]]
