I wrote, and mixed my own code, btw. I barrowed music samples, so I wouldn't have to go through all the effort of sampling the music files myself.
Plus a lot of these samples I use come from professional recording studios. The wavs are pure sound, with very little feedback.
There is more to it involved then you think, you approach a situation with ignorance, and then talk shit when you know you're wrong.
What is wrong with using bare metal coding for compos? It gives you more control over the sounds you create, it's a hell of a lot better then those expensive homosexual super GUI mixing programs, these wannabe djs use. Fuck, none of the computers I run can handle all of the channels I use in my mixes on those, compared to a simple Tracker that may cause some performance issues with a P133.
I'd like to see you write something in ModPlug, it's not as easy as you think. In fact it's probably one of the most advanced methods of sound design out there, but it's easy for me, since I've been knowledgeable about how it works for many years now.
