Real Name: Andreas Noa
Birthdate: 12.07.1981
Country: Germany
I started composing in 1993 with "ModEdit", but soon changed over to Fasttracker 2. After some years lusting for more sound options, I discovered MadTracker 2.
Today I mainly use Cubase SX due to the several pieces of "real world" gear I own, but I still use MadTracker for its production speed and overall sound quality.
Main genres I do are Breakbeats, Electro and Chillout-type of stuff.

Computer history:
=================
Started creating music on the computer in 1987 on the C-64 with the program music shop. Tried out different tools like Rockmonitor and Soundmonitor by Chris Huelsbeck. I started seriously tracking in 1995 on the Amiga 500 using different Soundtracker clones like Startrekker, Noisetrekker and in the end Protracker. Switched to Fasttracker 2 in 1997 and released some tunes on the net. After some years of working with FT2 I discovered Madtracker but found no available tutorial for it. During the work with Madtracker I researched the net for tracker relating stuff and an idea was forming in my head. Since no one else had done a tutorial for Madtracker I said to myself: "Ok, then I`ll do one ". Encouraged by the positive feedback I got I continued on it and added several new sections. Since then the tutorial has grown constantly with the help and great support of Yannick and the Madtracker community.
Education:
==========
At the moment I am studying electrotechnical engineering (telecommunications) at the university of applied sciences in Duesseldorf, Germany / NRW.
Styles:
=======
Techno, Trance, House, Ambient, Chillout, Easy Listening, Experimental stuff, classic orchestral... Well mostly its a mix of a bit of all, you decide  |

Real Name: Matthew Davis
Birthdate: 01/09/1987 *
Country: Australia
Spoken Languages: English, Bad English, 12AOL Talk (liek omg dued!!1), and I'm learning Al Bhed (Dudymmo!).
History:
Well, I've lived around music for nearly my whole life. My dad was in a band, and worked with guitar, bass, keyboard, vocals, and drum machines – Not all at once, of course. When I was two, I liked playing with the drum machine. Dad didn't like it though. He thought I was messing up his drum patterns, so he put a net up around the machine.
I thought the whistle made a very good bass drum.
Anyway, I started getting into music when I was about 9, with a demo version of NoteWorthy Composer that I obtained off a music and sound effects CD released by Eureka, called “Music and Sound Effects.” At first I was only working with melody, but I eventually found out how to use midi drums.
Then, at age 10, I finally decided to open another program from that CD, the “100% all-australian musicdisk” released by Heretics, expOZe. From there, I read that the song “I Can Feel The Beat” by Hunz of Smash! was created with ScreamTracker 3. I kept that name in mind, listening to the musicdisk several times a week. I was addicted.
When I was 13, my household finally got connected to the internet, and I downloaded myself a copy of ST3, plus a few samples from here and there. I also ripped sounds from a few PlayStation game CDs. From there, I said goodbye to midi, and hello to trackerism.
Of course, after a while, I decided that I wanted something better, something more interactive, something where I could use the mouse to select options, instead of relying on keyboard short-cuts. So, I went Google-ing for more tracking software, and from there I found MadHouse, home of MadTracker.
I’ve been using MadTracker ever since.
Hobbies:
Makin` music, drawing anime, playing the PlayStation 2, and Flash animation (with SwiSH )
Styles:
French Dance, Breakbeat, Ambient, House, Downtempo, and Chip-Tune (currently learning).

edit: Rereading all that after 8 hours... Maybe I should've called it "Life Story" instead of "History"  |

Started using madtracker when I was about 14-15 yrs old (just a guess), still doing it now. I have no real hobbies besides music (maybe going out, but can you call that a hobby), and I'm studying to become an audio engineer at the SAE Institute in Rotterdam. |

Been around music since I can remember, used to build drums out of cussions and steel lids (couldn't afford the real thing) and play along to Bon Jovi, Phil Collins, Genesis, whatever. Once bought a Casio keyboard, used to record tunes with it using two tape recorders and a microphone. Then my family finally entered the world of PC's, I started of with one music program, moved over to another, then to a third, tried a fourth (FT2, S3 and IT were in there somewhere), got win98, had to find a proggie that would run in a windows only enviroment, found Madtracker, stuck with Madtracker. Hopefully during this summer I'll have the time to play around with Logic and some real 5000€+ hardware synths at the school studio. Madtracker will hovever remain the main production tool for me  |

I'm Inge. 23 and counting. Holland, but not doing drugs. As most people from Holland. If there is one thing you should remember, then remember that the majority is not a drug addict. Not that I'm aware of, atleast. Oh, and forget about these wooden shoes. I got Globes, just like the lot of you.
I used to be programming furious beats and sawsynths. Nowadays I consume more than I produce, but I'm planning to seriously start programming again when this schoolyear (read: five days ahead) is over (I heard *so* many sweet vsti's while beta-testing that I'll have to make some tracks that will make both Pendulum as John B scared. Very scared).
I do some stuff for MT. I write tutorials, think with Yannick about usability, review music, come up with concepts for promotion, and write the newsletters. All that, but only if I have time. I'll be more active again after these five days that are still ahead.
I study cognitive linguistics, and planning to start my master next year. Goal is to get a phD position, or something research-related. Otherwise I'll start learning Delphi, decompile MT, and make it opensource. I'm that kind of fellow. Yannick should be happy that I'm so stupid, otherwise Sourceforge would be one tracker richer.
[Final exam tomorrow. anyone not wishing me well will die instantely. Or almost instantely. You'll never know. Just wish me well.]
Aight,
Inge
edit: and I'm a mod round here. Make fun out of me and die. Instantely. Don't even try.
not even you, Enon. And Mikx should definately shut up. |

Real Name: Michael Camacho
Birth date: 9-3-80
Country: Naw thanks I'll stick too music I can understand. its not bad thou.

I'm a newbie tracker, I guess, compared to some of the other Madchainsters, with only 3 years tracking. But I've made it my life, music that is, oh ok and tracking too. It becomes the only thing I can do, outside of work that is. I suffer from the hate for American society but the love for musical freedom (thank you Yannick).
I've been playing keyboard for over 10 years now, but only really got into it like 5 years ago. I'm pretty good but I still have the whole of infinite music to learn. I'm by far not even close to all the potential music has to offer, but with each and every song I get a little closer to that prize (btw, I know it doesn't exist but I keep the illusion alive just for musical purposes).
The journey to madtracker was long and hard, having searched for 2 years for a program that was going to suite my inability to understand cakewalk like programs. Why, cause music shouldn't ever be harder then the most intuitive and straight forward way. You can look at a keyboard and figure out something the first time you sit down on it, but in most programs you don't know were to start, madtracker took that out of the picture, It made Music , "Music" for me.
Oh and I want a job that has nothing to do with groceries and everything to do with sound. I got until September, then I go jobless, I really don't want to go back to working at subway, but I guess its better then nothing... naw, nothing is so much better.
I don't really have a style so to speak, nor do I want one, music is way to infinite to put a limiting label on any of it. Though I do understand the whole consumer side of it, and so I write experimental everything, or better explained as random chaos (un order-order).
I don't own much for making the music I do. I have a Yamaha csx6 and I use my room mates computer for madtracker. I bought a $100 guitar (samick guitar) that is,,, well it works and that's all that matters. $200 pair of sennheiser hd 580 head phones, cause I don't have studio monitors, and my N0N / N0N mind. That's about it, I still have lots of stories but no time.
Thanks for reading
