Crittersoap of HJT was the youngest member of the german CPC scene. At the age of 12 he tried to learn assembler and was taught by [[Odiesoft]]. He is the son of [[Marabu]] and the brother of [[Hiroyuki]]. His first CPC-Party outside of the HJT castle was the GOS V where he, amongst other things, begged [[GWM]] for cigarettes :)

Soundtrakker

[[Image:Soundtrakker-128k.jpg|thumb|Sountrakker 128k]]

Soundtrakker (Musizier mit mir) from [[New Age Software]] was programmed by Oliver Mayer ([[BSC]]) and was one of the most used music tools on the CPC.

There where three version released:
* Soundtrakker 1.0
* Soundtrakker 1.1
* Soundtrakker 128K

For [[Weeske]] there was also a specialized Version of Soundtrakker 1.0 with an extra Intro with the Weeske-Logo and a modified manual.

Soundtrakker 1.x and Soundtrakker 128K are different in more aspects than just the
amount of memory that is available. ST-128K is a improvement of ST-1.x, introducing
for example additional effects. That's why a new extension (.128 instead of .sng)
was introduced for the files that were created using ST-128K. The 1.x Soundtrakkers
are unable to read the .128 tunes, while ST-128K is still able to read the .sng files.

Under some circumstances ST-128K is not compatible with ST-1.x tunes. When using very short patterns in an ST-1.x song, the song can be messed up in ST-128K.

Since its release SoundTrakker songs have been used in nearly all demos of these times. [[Tom & Jerry]] released several song collections with a jukebox-like player. [[SymAmp]] allows to manage and play complete SoundTrakker songlists.
