TCB TRACKER ARRIVES!! ********************* Get ready to rock! The hottest music program to hit Europe is now available. PDC is the exclusive North American distributor and supporter of TCB Tracker. In fact, TCB Tracker is so hot that it was officially named the best music program of 1990 in Europe. What is TCB Tracker? It's a four track music record and playback system that includes a drum machine, sequencer, and synthesizer all built in. In essence, it's a complete mixing studio. The notes played are all digitized sound, so the end results are crystal clear. It allows you to create real digital songs, mix existing songs, or use samples for your own programs -- all in digital sound quality. Demos (both graphics and sound) are the hottest thing in Europe. The premiere demo maker, "AN Cool" Nilsson, a Swedish 18 year old created TCB Tracker to facilitate his demo creations (see ST Format article enclosed for full story on Nilsson). For example, the Samantha Fox demo is an example of AN Cool's fine craftsmanship. The digitized sound sample was easily created with TCB Tracker. In fact, doing so was the most basic of processes. Much more complex sounds are possible, such as the Dragnet theme song. TCB Tracker will appeal to a wide audience, from the music-novice to advanced programmers. For the MIDI musician it has full MIDI compatibili- ty. Included for the programmer is assembly and GFA BASIC source code to play songs/sounds in their own programs (for both the ST and STe). In fact, every major European software house is now using TCB Tracker to create music in their programs. STe users will enjoy full Stereo support, as well as Bass and Treble controls. For the novice a tutorial is incl- uded in the manual, a help function is offered, and technical support is available; using it is a breeze. TCB Tracker is quick and simple and it uses only about 29% of the com- puter's processing time. Amiga digitized sounds are compatible. TCB Tracker is fully mouse and icon controlled with keyboard shortcuts for more advanced users. It works on all ST computers from the 520 STFM to the Mega 4 STe (a color monitor is required). No additional equipment is needed -- it sounds great through the monitor speaker and it pumps with additional speakers hooked up. PDC has slashed the retail price of TCB Tracker from the projected price of $99.95 to $69.95. Additional song disks are available in a 10 disk set for $39.95. We will be fully supporting users by offering tech- nical support, newsletters, additional sample/module disks, and much more. Available from: Public Domain Corp.
