Today I downloaded and installed Aodix, a tracker-style DAW. I got some sound out of it with VST2's but couldn't figure out how to load WAV files.
Overall, it was some additional experience with a tracker, kinda like MilkyTracker, and it brought back memories. But I can't see using it as a primary DAW. However, to jot down some arpeggios it might be useful and I could export them into the ZOOM R8 or REAPER or MuLab or whatnot.
I still don't see what the allure is of tracker programs, but at least I tried. Aodix requires ASIO, so I used FL Studio ASIO.

Also, I spent a long time trying to save TrackTemplate presets for Dexed until I realised that they DON'T SAVE at all in Reaper, so I lost a lot of work. So, I deleted Dexed which is okay because I don't really need 1980s FM synth sounds anyhow.
