This software is a music editor designed to replicate the style and functionality of Impulse Tracker, providing users with a similar experience.
Unlike Impulse Tracker, Schism Tracker runs on almost any platform that supports SDL. This means that it can be successfully built on a range of operating systems, including Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Linux, Windows, AmigaOS, and BeOS. While the majority of the development is done on x86 (ia32, amd64/ia32e) and ppc (both the ppc32 and ppc64 flavors), Schism will most likely build on any architecture supported by GCC4 (e.g. alpha, m68k, arm, etc.). However, it may not be optimized as well on some of these systems.
Overall, Schism Tracker is a great option for those looking to create high quality music without breaking the bank on expensive equipment. Its versatility in terms of platform support is also a major plus.
