Schism add-ons and nifty stuff
- Impulse/Schism Tracker fonts – Put these in ~/.schism/fonts, then open the menu ‣ Settings ‣ Font Editor (or Shift-F12), and load 'em up. Neat!
- For even more fonts (along with a couple of the ones also on the above page), get the Impulse Tracker Font Customizer from the IT download page, and browse through
ITFONTS.ZIP from within there. (Yes, it is a zip inside a zip.)
Other trackers
- Impulse Tracker – the official site for the one and only true IT
- ChibiTracker – another tracker that copies many of Impulse Tracker's elements (abandoned)
- BeRoTracker – yet another IT clone; BeRoTracker is focused more on doing spiffy things with VST rather than being a carbon copy. Think IT3, but not vaporware.
- MilkyTracker – a Fast Tracker clone; runs on tons of systems (especially PDAs)
- OpenMPT – the open-source continuation of the first Windows-based tracker. Only for Windows, but mostly functional on Linux with Wine.
- Renoise – can this even be called a tracker anymore, or has it evolved into something else entirely? Highly feature-packed.

- Mod Archive – just what the name implies: an archive of mods. Huge.
- Modland – a comprehensive, highly categorized demoscene archive. Great resource for songs in obscure file formats, or old versions of trackers.
