Amiga This section was initially supplied by Heikki Kantola <hkantola@cc.helsinki.fi> All further updated information was provided by M. Linus Larsen <linus.larsen@mbox200.swipnet.se>. Heikki writes: There's several "exotic" mod formats for Amiga which are usually just differently packed ProTracker variants and therefore pretty easy to convert to normal PT format. There are at least the following mod converters on Aminet (see section 6.1; unless a path is given, the files mentioned below reside in */):
And then there are some of the weirder ones:

Obviously, try ftp.cdrom.com if the site is down before the next FAQ update. This is what it featured in Jan 1999:

Should be enough to please just about everybody there, but remember Hornet will close soon... All of the MS-DOS programs mentioned in the earlier FAQ could not be found. As you may have noticed, the files are a mixture of DOS and/or Windows based. Besides, what is this fascination with ruining a perfectly good (if not GREAT) MOD by turning it into a MIDI file? This is a weird world, folks....
