Description
Amiga Format Sequencer One
“Amiga Format Sequencer One” refers to the music sequencing software Sequencer One by Gajits Music Software, which was notably included as a cover disk freebie with an issue of the British magazine Amiga Format.
Originally a commercial product, the software was later distributed freely on a cover disk to make way for the release of an updated version, Sequencer One Plus. It was a popular and well-regarded MIDI sequencer for the Amiga and Atari ST platforms, known for its user-friendly interface.
Key Features
- Platform: Designed for the Commodore Amiga and Atari ST home computers.
- Interface: Based around three main screens: the Track screen (for track lists and cue points), the Step Editor (a piano-roll display for note-level editing), and the Bar Editor (for arranging whole bars graphically).
- Functionality: Offered 32 tracks, a high resolution of 192 ppqn (pulses per quarter note), and standard sequencing features like loop recording, overdubbing, quantisation, and transposition.
- File Compatibility: Capable of loading and saving files in its own format, as well as the common Standard MIDI File formats 0 and 1.
- Amiga Specifics: Utilized the Amiga’s ability to output digitised stereo sound, working with the IFF sample format, and allowed users to assign memory usage (chip or fast RAM) to accommodate large samples.
