If it works at all it's so full of timing errors it's unusable. Schism was just like old times except for one fatal flaw: its MIDI *suuuuucks*. Renoise I got fairly good with but for some reason never completed a track. Wine can't run Buzz, but I'd started using Renoise and Schism by then.

But I became increasingly annoyed with having to keep a windows install around and went Linux-only on all my PCs by mid 2012. I *love* Buzz and would still be using it to this day if it were multi-platform. Everything from my "hiatus over!" debut of Proterozoic to Eddie at the Mental Institution was done in Buzz, controlling external synths via Polac's MIDI out.

By 2011~2012 I was writing on Buzz almost exclusively (its IT-like controls helped), especially after the New Buzz versions came along. Then there was a hiatus of ten years (to the day!) from 2001 to 2011 during which I didn't *finish* any tracks, but started quite a few in IT, Buzz, and Psycle. But I probably made about 5-6 in that program!) (I only have one of my 669 modules anymore! It. Eventually Impulse Tracker came along and I used that alongside ST3 for a while. The piano roll & musical staff interfaces didn't stick and I soon migrated to Composer 669 and ST3 in one or the other order. I started in the early '90s with Adlib Visual Composer and KingMod, but never made anything noteworthy (heh) with them. I migrated from Composer 669 & ST3 to IT to Buzz to Renoise to SunVox to Schism and finally back to IT. I'm too lazy to make the effort to switch now. Even if using a tracker that supports the IT format brings separation of instruments and samples, more channels, NNAs, and a built-in resofilter effect. Schism and OpenMPT don't really feel right, and either way I can't be bothered to learn a new set of keybindings now, haha. I used to use Renoise as my tracker of choice, but I would spend hours fiddling with DSPs and mixing. That's not happening ever, but a man can dream. Actually, ideally Milky would support all the extra features in IT, haha. Ideally, it'd have more sample processing effects in the sample editor so I don't have to drag things into Audacity/bake a DSP chain into a sample in Renoise, but that's just wishful thinking. I've memorized nearly all the keybindings so I can do things pretty much reflexively in it now - it no longer gets in the way of me making a song. MilkyTracker is my preferred one nowadays.
