Steps are the most rudimental part of tracker,
bringing together an instrument, effects and a
note. Steps are combined with others to create
beats and melodies within a pattern. Patterns
are the snippets that form a small tune or riff. A
song is the highest level of structure in Tracker
and allows the combination of patterns to play
a full ‘song’ and all of its components. Each
project can have 1 song, which can hold a
maximum of 255 pattern slots. Song mode is
the environment in which to therefore arrange
patterns to form the end to end song as well as
re-arranging tracks. It allows, for example the
positioning of patterns to create an
introduction, build ups, breaks, drops, bridge,
and outro also to introduce new elements
through an ambient track. Song mode can be
selected by pressing [Song] and also the song
page can be temporarily displayed by holding
[Song] which gives a quick access option.
Song mode is the last part of arranging a full
track. Song stems can also be fully rendered out
as audio to be used in another application to
nalise a mix or for mastering or to be used to
create remixes. The entire song, all tracks can
also be rendered out as the nal version too. As
a reminder, as well as having the features for
building song arrangements, song mode is also
where the master tempo of the entire track is
located. This can be adjusted quickly by holding
[Song] + Turn (Jog).
