My suggestions:
Do you use Wine for gaming? (Yes/No)
Do you use Proton for gaming? (Yes/No)
Do you use VM for gaming (DOSBox and other emulators don't count)? (Windows/Other/No)

Craft slick chiptune music for games or fun as FamiStudio adds Linux builds

I still don't get it 100%, seems like an XY problem.
Do you need the file format to be compatible with common tracker formats or do you want an efficient format? Or something else?
I dont know about Musescore, but it seems to be bound to midi instruments (it is not a daw, but just a notation software).
But afromentioned lmms does indeed produce small files and has a pianoroll, and i bet there are a lot of sequencers that uses efficient file formats.

Do they miss something you need?

Yes, i need creating small files, not necessary "tracker" ones but ones playable with commonly used players.
Musescore and Muse are two different softwares.

https://milkytracker.titandemo.org/about/ maybe this one help. Also -> https://github.com/milkytracker/MilkyTracker/commits/master << someone seems still to maintain the codebase.

Thank you but it's "oldschool" tracker.
Currently i use OpenMPT, and it's a bit hard for me without piano roll.

Quoting: kokoko3k
Quoting: axredneckIs there any tool for creating "tracker" music, like OpenMPT but with sequencer-like interface and piano roll?
What do you mean?
There is no "tracker" music... i mean you can create any kind of music with trackers and sequencers, they are just tools.

Create .xm, .it, .vgm files with piano roll.
.mid files are small and i can create them with Muse but they sound differently on different devices.
.nsf files are small too and i can create them with FamiStudio but they sound too "simple".

Quoting: GuestLooks great. Like a MOD tracker in better. If only i knew how to compose music. Even small time music i would love to learn that.

Edit: Oh, i googled and they are plenty of free courses on the web ! Can anyone knowledgeable tell me if it is a practical way of learning some music or just a loss of time? I always thought you had to go to a music academy and stuff at minimum.

Yes, in order to create music You need to know some stuff about it, also You need an ear for music.
