Question: How do you record a live MIDI performance in a tracker including modulation and pitchbending?
How do you program your pianoroll with only four notes in a way that each notes retriggers itself 3times? I guess you have just compared the strength of one software to the weakness of another, which is not a fair comparison. It is like you are asking why can’t a piano slide notes like a trombone. Trackers and daws are made for two different type of people with two different mindsets which former focuses on programming music sequences, while recording performance for the later, which imo, incomparable.

- How do you even program pitchbending in a tracker?
> With node slide commands. 1 for slide up; 2 for slide down; 3 slides to the destination note.

- How do you program swing?
> We time things based on tick speed, default on 6 which means for every row, the tracker counts 6 events before moving on to another row. We can swing by alternating the tick speed between 4 and 6 tick for every row.

- Or polyrhythms?
> Renoise and SunVox can go into high tick speed or they have precise timing command. In addition, some trackers like precyne can have different timing for each pattern.

- And where are all the Rock/Metal/Jazz/Classic compositions made with trackers, with varying BPM and a large dynamic range?
> you can automate the BPM, like all other daws?

- Why does everything made with a tracker sounds like it has been made with a tracker?
> well… this is because you don’t realise it is made by trackers when you don’t think it sounds like one. Darude sandstorm is made with a tracker software, which it doesn’t sound like demoscene at all, and it sounds exactly like one of the trance hits during the time.
