So Renoise, a modern take on the classic FT2 interface, has just updated to version 1.8. If you've never heard of it before [or FastTracker 2, for that matter], you can check it out at http://www.renoise.com/. It's quite different from everything most of you have used, but I find tracker interfaces fun to use, though a lot of Renoise is still confusing because I haven't used it extensively yet. Listen to the demo songs though and you'll hear how capable this thing is. I think the best part is that it's such a bargain at 50 bucks. So like, even I can afford it!
Here's a video of it in action
