About HVL/AHX
HVL is a tracker format based upon the AHX format created in the mid '90s by Dexter and Pink of Abyss. The AHX format was relatively popular, and many songs were created and used in scene productions and games. AHX was designed to create a very SID-like sound on the Amiga. HVL offers several improvements on the AHX format.
