Schism Tracker is a free, open-source music creation software that allows users to create high-quality tracks without the need for expensive equipment. It is a reimplementation of Impulse Tracker, a popular music program from the 90s, and is based on a modified version of the ModPlug engine.

Schism Tracker is compatible with a wide range of platforms, including Windows, Mac, Linux and can be built on any architecture supported by GCC4. The Wii port should work the same as on a PC, and it also has some rather simple Wiimote support.

User guide

Unzip it to sd:/apps/, or give it to wiiload.

Controls

Wiimote:

D-Pad - Move cursor

1 - Stop (if playing), Return to file browser

2 - Load/change directory (in browser), Play song

Plus - Yes/OK (in dialog), Seek backward

Minus - No/Cancel (in dialog), Seek forward

Home - Quit to loader

If you have a USB keyboard and mouse attached, they should work identically to the standard PC version.

-Schism Tracker is a free and open-source reimplementation of [https://github.com/schismtracker/schismtracker/wiki/Impulse-Tracker Impulse Tracker], a program used to create high quality music without the requirements of specialized, expensive equipment, and with a unique "finger feel" that is difficult to replicate in part. The player is based on a highly modified version of the ModPlug engine, with a number of bugfixes and changes to improve IT playback.

-Where Impulse Tracker was limited to i386-based systems running MS-DOS, Schism Tracker runs on almost any platform that SDL supports, and has been successfully built for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, AmigaOS, BeOS, and even the Wii. Schism will most likely build on any architecture supported by GCC4 (e.g. alpha, m68k, arm, etc.) but it will probably not be as well-optimized on many systems.
