Hello all,

I'm building my dream app, modern but retro - flexible but limited.

Some current interesting features to take note of!

1. full launchpad midi workflow (basically plug in a launchpad mini and control 4TRK in a way similar to Ableton Push)
2. import / convert MIDI
3. create sample packs from amiga Protracker files - rips the selected samples into custom kits which you can use to expand your sound library - great for live sample looping with a midi controller!

I'm pushing updates pretty much daily and it's still 'early access' but 4TRK already has many great features. 4TRK can already be used to compose, remix and perform live,

>disclaimer: I am the solo-dev working on this project. It is not free: early version is around $10. So far I have only 3 paying users and around 15 testers who received the key for free. I am making daily updates and so far I have been working on the project for around 2 weeks. I have build other music apps through the years but always reached a stand still - until recently I have put hours of designing into the project and am dedicated and passionate about making my dream a reality, If you're interested in the project, check my itch Dev logs :)

4TRK is available for Linux, Mac and Windows.

Hello guys, I'm a big fan of Amiga, c64 and in general retro computers and music.

I'll keep it short and sweet:

1. i'm a solo dev and need testers and people to help build a dream community to share project files, presets and themes.
2. my product is not free (approx $10) but I do give out free keys to testers and those who give feedback can keep the software. I really want to see what you can make with it...
3. I'm better at developing than creating music to be honest, but I know my tool is powerful and I can't wait to see it shine!

4TRK is based on 4 main tracks - 3 for synths and 1 as a dedicated drum machine/sampler.
It has MIDI in and can be almost fully controlled by a launchpad mini - session mode to launch clips like in ableton, drums mode to sequence or play live and keys mode to sequence or play live (with Scale modes)

The main screen - a horizontal style sequencer (polyrhythmic) with up-to 64 step patterns, up-to 32 patterns per song. You also have the standard you would expect, a Mixer, piano roll.

The Drum Editor: record samples or create your own synthetic drum sounds

The Synths: 7 synth engines including DX7 (SYX patches) and SFZ (sound fonts which I use for amen break slicing)

4TRK has tonnes of themes and a theme editor available. Check the latest DEV LOG: https://jasonbmusic.itch.io/4trk/devlog/1490844/i-had-a-dream-oh-wait-no-it-was-real

I am specifically looking for Windows and Linux users (since I develop it on a mac, it's more difficult to test each new feature on all platforms) - OR if you have a Launchpad, I'd be happy to give some free keys to those who want to be part of 4TRK's beginning!
