Schism Tracker is a free, open-source music creation software that allows users to create high-quality tracks without the need for expensive equipment. It is a reimplementation of Impulse Tracker, a popular music program from the 90s, and is based on a modified version of the ModPlug engine.
Schism Tracker is compatible with a wide range of platforms, including Windows, Mac, Linux and can be built on any architecture supported by GCC4. The Wii port should work the same as on a PC, and it also has some rather simple Wiimote support.
User guide
Unzip it to sd:/apps/, or give it to wiiload.
Controls
Wiimote:
D-Pad - Move cursor
1 - Stop (if playing), Return to file browser
2 - Load/change directory (in browser), Play song
Plus - Yes/OK (in dialog), Seek backward
Minus - No/Cancel (in dialog), Seek forward
Home - Quit to loader
If you have a USB keyboard and mouse attached, they should work identically to the standard PC version.
