Sorry about latching onto a trivial detail like this xD, and it doesn't really have an effect on anything relevant; in any case, having used MS-DOS trackers already back in the day, I feel the need to remark that OpenMPT does not use the Impulse Tracker interface style, wahh... :') Unless there's some theming available for OpenMPT that I'm not aware of, that is. OpenMPT uses the operating system's window elements, panels, file selectors... and so on. It is very "Windowsy" because of these default elements being used so much. Impulse Tracker is _entirely different_.

Thanks for making this, it really caught me by surprise - hadn't heard about it before :). Excellent launch trailer. A very polished and very fun retro tracker. I'm rooting for a cross-platform release, too, hehe! (Also, if it doesn't go against the design philosophy, consider adding just a handful of built-in mix effects in a point release. Not talking about plugins or super advanced studio effects here, but more like, a way to dial in a bit of that classic "SNES Reverb" on an instrument, a simple tap delay with perhaps an adjustable filter, and a rudimentary EQ!)
I see it uses Microsoft's XNA, and at least that part will require an alternative, yeah. I'm sure they are indeed on it, as yep, it can be done realistically :). Seeing this tracker on other systems, too, would be great; I'd love this on Linux. As a side note, "C# with Microsoft libraries" doesn't indicate a problem per se these days, as .NET and Microsoft's C# ecosystem is properly open source and cross-platform. No problem developing and running that stuff on Linux nowadays. It's the XNA that's "from the old world", so to speak xD
