Creating Music with ProTracker?

Anyone able to point me to some good resources on creating music with ProTracker? I haven't really found much as far as not having any prior music knowledge, and using that particular Amiga program.

@kescusay well, I have a few ideas:

  1. The Amiga came with a bunch of floppies, including some which were magazine demo disks, some of which haven't been archived anywhere online from what I can tell so I'm definitely going to back those up.
  2. Play some of the games that came with it, such as SimCity and the port of Dragon's Lair II.
  3. Make some music with ProTracker.
  4. I might actually try to write a game for it since there's a lot of documentation specifically about C programming for it and that's something I have a lot of experience in.

@thouartfrugal luckily it did in-fact come with an A520 modulator! Saves me a lot of potential headache.

Where could I find a CRT Monitor in Eugene?

I picked up an old Amiga 500 recently and unfortunately no display that I currently have works with it. If any of you know where I could pick up a CRT locally, ideally one that's around 14", that would be great.

Is it just me or do a LOT of cats seem to go missing in Eugene?

I just feel bad for all the poor cats ๐Ÿฅบ

@TheGoonch yet another article that's functionally the same as a police report with absolutely nothing to add.

@AncientFutureNow awesome! It's great to see local music on here!

@punkisundead absolutely opposed to it. From my experiences in the local activist scene which tends to emphasize left unity, it's especially shitty as an anarchist to be talked down because of my issues with tons of hierarchy and abuse in those orgs because "we've gotta have left unity". The only solution I can think of is to split off and commit to anarchist principles, knowing that it will alienate many.

@kescusay @AncientFutureNow I'm personally more annoyed about people (including on occasion the cops themselves) who drive and park right in the middle of the bike lane. Seems to mostly be a problem around Dave's Hot Chicken, likely because they have curbside pickup even though the building is surrounded by bike lanes so there's no real curb to speak of.

Either way, I'm not so sure that arresting people would be particularly helpful for either problem. There's got to be another way, somehow.

@kescusay perhaps then, a larger effort must be made to encourage people on the Eugene sub to migrate, either to Emerald Social (from where they can join) or to Lemmy

@kescusay aw man that really sucks. Let us know if there's anything we as a community can do to help :)

 

New Post on my Personal Website: Scoping out the Eugene-Springfield Fediverse

I recently wrote up a new post for my personal website about the Fediverse in relation to the Eugene-Springfield area, and figured I'd share it. Let me know what you think!

Tabletop Gaming Event here in Eugene!

So tomorrow (as of when I'm posting this) there's going to be a tabletop gaming and fantasy focused holiday market over at Funagain Games. Figured I'd bring it up here since I only found out about it when I saw a poster around town.

EDIT: It's from noon to 6 PM
EDIT 2: It already happened, so don't get your hopes up

@magnetmagician @eugene hmm that would make sense. I haven't taken a look up there recently so idk what it's like up there

 

Anyone know when the High Street Protected Bikeway might open?

I've been highly anticipating it ever since construction began, and it looks nearly finished to me. This would make so many trips much easier!

Free Voice Training Workshop in Eugene!

Seems like it might be a good idea for any fellow trans people in #Eugene who are interested in voice training to attend.

@eugene

 

[META] Should we have a separate sister community for discussing the University of Oregon?

I kinda feel like the university is a bit different, and it would be a great way to get more people who might be involved in campus life onto the fediverse as well as being a good place to discuss campus-specific topics without clogging the Eugene community. I'd be down to make one myself for that if that would be of interest.

@eugene

 

Sad to hear that @doublesidedmedia is ending.

They were my favorite source of local news, especially since most local news outlets are just pushing copaganda all the time.
