Tracker Music?

[JXC]

I am wondering if any of you use trackers to make music for your wads. I am going to use MilkyTracker or whatever for music of a future Doom wad that will take at least some advantage of Doom Retro's features. The music will be converted to Ogg and looped. The music will be a combination of chiptune (usually Turbografx style) and modern instruments (mostly GUS patches from freepats and samples from the OLPC library). What do you think about using trackers for Doom music?

Doom Retro uses SDL Mixer so it should support .xm files natively.

There was a recent thread about this topic if you missed it.

I do like the callout of tracker modules in particular, as it strikes an awesome balance between sound and filesize that makes 'em a perfect fit IMO for technically advanced (i.e. ZDoomy) wads.

I'm biased though, I guess, since I write them. :P

Doom Retro can use modules with libmilkmod2 from the Doom Retro github page. I thing PrBoom+ and Crispy Doom can also use them with libmilkmod2. I tested the lumps, and the sound really good.
