The Amiga uses a custom audio chipset (Paula), there should be no
shematics out there. (Somebody do a Paula-Station? :)

I guess the best you could do to reproduce Old skool music from Amiga
games (or crackers intros) is get an Amiga 500 and OctaMED (MED for that
purpose). 
MED has a really cool synthsound generator for that cheesy lo-fi
8-bit-ness. If you can, use a compressor/noisegate (with extreme settings)
for that extra rawness. I use it lots with snaredrums and drumloops!

Tracker programs on the PC are based on Amiga old-time classics like
Protracker etc, but they are so sophisticated now they lost their appeal
IMO. Ok you can always sample @ 8bit and limit yourself to 4 tracks :)
