Lots of good memory's from the old Amiga days, even now I still regularly listen to all of my chiptunes whilst coding. Check out nectarine radio at http://www.scenemusic.eu/

So nice to see amiga ads :)
I also started on A500 with battle chess and hybris, i was also part of a demogroup and went to the famous The Party (94 as far as i remember) at Aars in Denmark.
I loved all these talents who put so much passion in developing demos, and some of them still work for famous video games companies.
My last amiga was an A4000 with the expensive powerPPC card which didn't gave me so much more.
That was my amiga experiment, but i still play through emulators sometimes :)
I heard that a new amiga is available, is that true ???

octamed!
I've not heard that word in a long long time. When they updated it to the amiga 1200 and 64 channels, things got intense. My friend still codes his music in hex with pro tracker on the pc.
All I ever used my amigas for was Deluxe paint and real3d. ;)

I still use a Tracker now. It just makes a lot more sense than using a horizontal sequencer like Cubase.
I find the lack of visual distractions really helps me feel the sounds, plus you can do stuff in a tracker in about 7 seconds that would take about 3 hours in a horizontal sequencer.
The timing is better too. -
Yeah I can remember spending hours in front of Tracker and Octamed, sampling chopping and programming the beats and riffs into the limited 4 channels but damn they produced some wicked tunage from that machine .. plus bloody good games machine if you had a mental block lol

Yeah man - some of the best industrial / hardcore / speedcore / drum n bass in the world has been recorded on a shitty Amiga 500 with Pro tracker.
