Just try to find a PS1 or PS2. Nothing comes close to the original.

I Like it! Nice chords and bass line.

Not sure if this is mentioned but I got the best possible sound quality:

-Run M2000/MTVMG on a PS2.
-Connect a optic fiber cable in 'digital out' on the PS2.
-Other end of cable connect to portable DCC recorder in 'optical in'.
-Connect second optical cable in DCC 'optical out'.
-Other end of cable to 'optical in' in Audigy break-out box sound card.
-'Record pause' on DCC.
-You have a digital signal of M2000 songs on your pc. No loss of analog distortion.

Have tried to connect PS2 directly to sound card via optical but I heard sound but could not record (DRM?).

Quotethats probably because 8/10 times u create something, its not worth continuing with.

Yeah. But even if I think: 'this is very good' I haven't got the patience to work on it and finish it.
I need a personal producer...

haha! No! Usually I don't have good names for my tracks. So I renamed this track just before I uploaded.

Never heard of 3kilos and Climbatize, will check it out soon.

Thanks for your comments! (It's okay to say what's wrong in your opinion so I can learn from it )

Made this with Madtracker. Used original samples from sid file (converted to wav).

Thanks, but this track is like 5 years old. Don't know if I have the original Reason file.
The problem with me is that I almost never finish a track. It takes too long.
So yeah, when I'm getting bored with a track I start making the next

Thanks JohnP. I will listen to the tracks you posted.

Many years ago I tried to make a long Amiga mix in the style of Ben Liebrand. Software I used was Cool Edit Pro. Beats ripped from everywhere. This is my first attempt:

http://www.adrive.com/public/983a0441dca170922e27d3ff7e9546cdbfb9514c87142523284c0e9f910adff0.html

It's very boring sometimes, so you've been warned!

Used Amiga tunes AFAIK: Bodyblows, Chaos Engine, Nicky Boom, Arabian Nights, Fairlight carcktune, Elfmania (yeah, way to long),
Boulderdash, Elf.

This 'track' is also made with Reason. Nothing special. More like an experiment.

So I made this as an attempt to copy one of my fav. bands.
It's from years ago, far from finished and short:

I will upload some but they are far from finished and they will never be finished I'm afraid.

I will paste my post from another thread.
You will need:
-PS1 memcard(s) with M2000 data (DUH).
-A modded PS2 (or PS2 that will play backups).
-USB-stick (any USB-stick will work).
-Lots of programs.
-Patience!

@DJ: Here are the progs you need to convert the MC files from PS1 to PSP format:

There is no tutorial b/c I forgot how I did it. I will tell you what i do know:

1.  You extract the rar file.
2.  There are two folders: Memcard utils for PC and PS2.
3.  First burn the iso image (in the PS2 folder) on a cd.
4.  Put your PS1 MC card(s) in a modded PS2.
5.  Put a USB-stick in one of the USB slots. Any USB stick will work.
6.  Load the cd in the PS2.
7.  You see a menu. Choose 'Filebrowser' and press X.
8.  Select 'MC0' for Memcard1 or 'MC1' for Memcard2.
9.  Press L1 -> you see a small menu popup. Press square for displaying proper file names.
10. Press triangle to go back to the memcard files.
11. Now you have choice whether to copy a just a single mc file or the whole memcard.
     If you want to copy a single file. Choose a file you want to copy.
     If you want to copy whole memcard just select a random file.
12. Press R1. You see a popup menu and press 'Copy'.
13. Press triangle to go back until you see a list of all the drives (MC0/MC1/MASS/etc..).
14. Select 'MASS:/'
15. Choose a directory to put your copied mc files.
16. Press R1.
17. Press 'MC PASTE' --> For copying the whole memcard!
     OR:
     Press 'PASTE' --> For copying a single memcard file!
18. Congratulations! You just copied your PS1 mc files to a USB-stick!
19. Now you have to convert the mc files so your PSP can read them.
20. I forgot how to do this so you have to figure it out by yourself  Grin
21. I will try it if I have time
22. There are some M2000 files within the rar file so you can see how I made my incredible tracks Wink.
23. I hope this will help you. 

Welcome Creatormusic. Don't forget to upload some tracks! Otherwise, I will do it

So this is the original song from the game:

I just made a remixed version

I loved the game btw. One of the highlights of my Amiga-era.

Maybe I will make some more remixed versions of other game songs. I have some that are W.I.P. so I will upload them if you like it or not

@DJ Ryznup: Madtracker is just like ProTracker but on pc and a lot of extra features like vsti-support. The best tracker on pc is
Renoise. It's (alomost) professional. Fantastic program if you don't like the sequencers of Cubase or Reason.

Yesterday at Creatormusic's house we listened to some old M2000 tracks on his PS1. That was great! Hope he will upload some here.

Years ago made this with Madtracker. I'm very proud of it 

http://www.adrive.com/public/ba20ef6b47a6470977fcc379137a4d14408808afed3835fa9e8a2eb50e11c479.html

Very happy! Well done!

Thanks, Shellshaka. Last night I called Creatormusic and told him about your comment. He thought I made a joke .

I assume you listened to many songs here so your opinion means something.

Let's hope he will join TIMGUL and make more great music!

It's very strange: When I first started to make 'music' with Protracker on Amiga I thought: 'Man, I whish I had 8 or
16 tracks instead of just 4! I want to have 16bit samples!'
And now I use Reason and Renoise and have all the things I wanted for a long time.
But why I use Music2000 the most of all despite the lack of many features like dsp's and VSTi's?

Well, I think M2000's restrictions force me to master it and to be creative. Renoise and Reason are superb progs with all the bells and whistles you could ever wish but they have a steep learning curve and it take a very long time (for me) to learn/ master them.

There's another factor: Nostalgia. I like the sound of M2000 very much. It's not crystal clear like pc progs but that makes it so good. It reminds me of the 'good old time' when I made my first tracks back in 1999/2000.
It's like the Sid-sound of the C64 which takes me back to my 'Press Play On Tape'-era .

So I hope I will make many more tracks with M2000 as long as I have inspiration and motivation and I will try to support this great site!

 

Thanks for your comment, DJ.
About converting from PS1 to PSP and vise versa... Well it's not easy! Spent a whole day figuring it out.

First you need a modded PS2. Yes a PS2 and some programs. I will post here later how to do it.
Now I have an appointment so speak you later!
