Announcement: 68k-Live-Remixing-Tool PT1210
Andreas Rösner wrote: After one year of development time the developers h0ffman & Akira Rei has finished the beta version of the new live-remixing-application "PT1210" for the Commodore Amiga (screenshot).
According to the developer Akira basically it is a Protracker-MOD-software which simulates the functionality of a Pioneer CDJ Turntables but works with Tracker-modules.
Basically the programm runs on all Amigas with ECS-chipset. The application was written in assembler code by h0ffman. Akira has created the user-interface. The concept was developed by both partners.
The programm is supposed to be presented at the Datastorm 2014 in Göteborg which will take place from February 14th until 16th. Release date will be April 18th during the Revision 2014 in Saarbrücken, Germany.

Workbench enhancement: BetterWB 3.2
Similar to AIAB, AmiKit or AmigaSYS, BetterWB is a collection of Workbench tools for AmigaOS 3.1 which are rather simple and therefore have low hardware requirements. It is meant for purists, low end Amiga computers and Minimig users.
BetterWB runs on all Amigas and is provided as disk images. It requires the original disks of the Workbench 3.1 (3.0 may be sufficient as well but was not tested) and 8 MB free harddrive memory.
Changes:
- DosPrefs is a commodity that replaces both Clicknot and Unixdirs3 and adds wildcard support
- A powerful system Trashcan is now included as a commodity
- MagicMenu has now a preferences program and is configured to use less resources
- Boards.library got updated to its last incarnation
- A bugfixed requestchoice command fixes three bugs that were previously available
- Tooltype tweaking on some commodities for more comfortable use
- Workaround for an icon.library bug regarding internal deficons
- Format GUI now works without problems
- Plus Many more fixes and minor enhancements
