Amiga (etc) music mods on other hardware platforms
« on: April 04, 2007, 11:19:38 AM »
What is the best way to play your favourite .mod or other format files on a machine that they were not written for - without running a full emulator package?

I looove get_down_em3.mod, and would like to blast it out through my pc... but do not want to make a .wav or other such. I'd like to just play the mod. Any ideas?
:)

I don't know...

I don't want to play the mod on my Amiga. I can do that already.

Winamp does a fairly good job too: that's what I use. I installed a few plugins so that .mod, .xm, .tmfx and .sid files are played 'natively'; exotic .dw-files I converted to MP3s first with Deliplayer, which then was no longer required. Octamed never caught on in games and demos because it was released very late as well as being a major CPU hog in playback, so little popular music in that format exists.
Some people say that cats are sneaky, evil and cruel. True, and they have many other fine qualities as well.

Use Oldsk00l WinAmp plugin on Windows.  Don't forget to delete the winamp mod plugin first.

Use UADE on Linux.

I think it ought to be in Alternative Operating Systems, if you want to be pedantic. I think technically that's not a thread either.

FYI.

CocoModX is good for Macs.
