Thanks to the creators of the Tao Framework for .NET, we now have a decent interface for generating high quality sound cross-platform. Tao opens a binding to the OpenAL library, which provide an excellent sound rendering infrastructure on Linux, Windows, and OSX. With this decision, development progress is speeding up on creating the next generation of VoodooTracker! Keep watching for more info, and (if you are a music developer) leave some feedback and let us know what you would like to see!

After being featured in the book “Linux Music and Sound” by Dave Phillips, development on VoodooTracker saddly dropped off. This was due to a lack of free time on my part after starting a family and beginning my career. Thankfully, development has picked up again with a major focus on rebuilding the project from the ground up to be cross platform. However, don’t expect VoodooTracker 2 anytime soon! I am currently working on overcoming issues involved in generating accurate sound on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. That said, the GUI is built and functioning on all three platforms.
