Hi. I recently ripped a sound module from the taipan music demo, and multi-ripper announced that it was a "Sound Monitor" module. Does anyone know what such a module is and what plays them? None of my music editors/ players know about the module. It would be nice to be able to play them without running the demo, as they're nice modules, and the demo is particularly un-friendly (makes you turn off your computer to exit :-( Thanks in advance -Matthew -- ------- Matthew Donaldson _ matthew@cs.adelaide.edu.au / \/ Operating Systems Group \_/\ Computer Science Department University of Adelaide

While on this topic, does ANYONE know of a place (FTP or otherwise) that has tracker-music programs?

Ultraplayer does say it plays soundmon modules, but it doesn't do a very good job of the ones from the Taipan music demo. I don't know if this is because it doesn't handle all the commands, or because the demo uses non-standard modules. Some of the songs sound all out of tune, some seem to have instruments not being played, and some have notes of the wrong length. -Matthew P.S. I now have the 11 modules from disk 1 of the demo, which I plan to put on ab20 when I find something that will play them properly. P.P.S. Does anyone know of a way to exit this demo without turning the computer off and on? -- ------- Matthew Donaldson _ matthew@cs.adelaide.edu.au / \/ Operating Systems Group \_/\ Computer Science Department University of Adelaide
