I got some troubles running it... I suggest covertbitops GoatTracker v2.68:
http://cadaver.homeftp.net/tools/goattrk2.zip

if you prefer a Stereo version go for this one instead:
http://cadaver.homeftp.net/tools/gt2stereo.zip

both were just released a couple days ago supporting latest Antti Lankila reSID patches, as stated on the download page:

GoatTracker V2.68
This is a crossplatform C64 music editor. Supports output via Dag Lem's reSID engine, the HardSID 4U USB device & HardSID soundcards or CatWeasel MK3.
From V2.0 onwards the editor includes more powerful step-programming (wave/arpeggio, pulse and filter), 63 instruments, more instrument parameters & pattern commands. May be less userfriendly than V1.xx, but you can import V1.xx songs and instruments to see how the corresponding V2 features work. Rastertime usage has stayed about the same. Also available in stereo.
V2.68 adds Antti Lankila's improved reSID distortion code. See /I command line option.



One of the best cross platform SID tracking tools available IMHO

Cheers!   ;)

GoatTracker is a standard console+sdl app, not a Java one..   sorry... forgive me, i'm feeling a little dumb!  :whack: :whack: :whack:

actually I don't know... i just wanted to point out that Java based tracker (done by Ice00, http://digilander.libero.it/ice00/index.html) gave me some headaches to run... so I would prefer win32+sdl console based GoatTracker... feel free to do whatever you feel right.

If you prefer to compose SID based "chiptunes" Ice00 has a very extensive collection of NATIVE TOOLS here:

or you can download the complete set here:
