Actually the thing i'm working now works using standard XM files... [FastTracker modules]... That allows for small-filesize loops and easy BPM changing... I'll try to get it finished this week :-]
That would be cool. Here's a suggestion if you're interested, on what I think would be the perfect thing for something like this. Most sample cd's use wav files (or can easily be converted to wav files). If you can make something that can use these wav files, that would be great. Here's my vision: Have maybe 6 buttons on the program (intro, main loop1, fill1, main loop2, fill2, ending). For each button, the user would assign a wav file to it (it would be easy because drum loop sample cd's are already organized like this and they are loop-ready, meaning if you play the file in a repeated cycle you won't notice any breaks). Then, have another button somewhere where you can change the bpm. That would be the perfect program. You can assign keyboard letters for each button to make it easier and control it from there. By the way, this is how my old yamaha keyboard was back in the day, and it was a really easy way to get drum accompaniment. There's a little problem, audio stretching/shrinking is a bit too advanced for my skills  XMs are like MIDIs, i mean, you can change tempo, because it records INSTRUCTIONS, not AUDIO DATA.... Let's see what it ends up like :-]

My programmer personality type is: DLSCI am a Doer. I am very quick at getting tasks done. I believe the outcome is the most important part of a task and the faster I can reach that outcome the better. After all, time is money. I like coding at a Low level. I am from the old school of programming and believe that I should have an intimate relationship with the computer. I don't mind juggling registers around and spending hours getting a 5% performance increase in an algorithm. I work best in a Solo situation. The best way to program is by Irself. There's no communication problems, I know every part of the code allowing I to write the best programs possible. I am a Conservative programmer. The less code I write, the less chance there is of it containing a bug. I write short and to the point code that gets the job done efficiently. ----- funny link

TOOWILD: Yep, that's my bedroom. Nope, the fire dept won't care if anything blows up [they don't know what a computer is]. Give your daughter a nice can of pepperspray and tell her that's a magical spray that will make boys happy, especially when applied THERE. Thanks for the good laugh :]

Hi. First of all, 'THEY' want a donation because the software is DONATIONware. The site is called DONATIONcoder... any pattern? Second, you don't HAVE to donate MONEY; what about donating time? Hunt for bugs, correct 'em, be nice with the comunnity... Third, there's always the free keys. Greetings from somewhere cold, --scannie
