    • 1992, Ian Tweedie, “OK here it is!! Mod-File-Format!”, in comp.sys.ibm.pc.soundcard (Usenet):
      This command will retrig the same note before playing the next. Where to retrig depends on the speed of the song. If you retrig with 1 in speed 6 that note will be trigged 6 times in one note slot.

      The clicking during the piano part is specially horrid... It sounds a bit like this: Click! Click-click-click! Whrrrrrr... Click! Click-click-click! Whrrrrrr... etc. (The Whrrrrrr bit sounds a bit like a sample being retrigged at a very high rate (a dozen times per second)).
