TS Tracker — PT2/PT3 chiptune player for the Timex/Sinclair 2068

Date: May 17, 2026

This music player for the TS2068 reads ProTracker 2 / Vortex Tracker II songs and plays them through the onboard AY-3-8912.

The program scans the tape, builds a 9-entry directory of every CODE block it finds, auto-detects PT2 vs PT3 from the file’s data, and lets you pick songs by number or play the whole tape in order. Colored bars show real-time volume per AY channel; keys 1/2/3 toggle channel mute mid-playback.

The driver is S.V. Bulba’s universal PTxPlay (asm), wrapped with a C front-end built using z88dk. Output is a .tap that runs on any emulator (FUSE, zesarux) and on real hardware.
