Title: .wav to 8-bit 8363Hz .pcm converter
Post by: ZoeB on September 26, 2012, 17:10:44
Hi!

I made a short script that converts mono .wav files into 8-bit 8363Hz .pcm files.  You can get it from https://github.com/ZoeB/wave-tools/blob/master/makeamiga.py .  Suggested usage: "python3 makeamiga.py *.wav"  I hope it's helpful for someone out there!

All the best,
Zoƫ.

But I don't have Phyton D: .

Hmm... as you shared the script I guess I can improvise something identical in another language :3 .

The python interpreter is free as open-source, just so you know.

8-bit 8363 hz? The latest ModPlug Tracker has a feature that can do that. Use the Resample feature, then the Convert to 8-bit feature.

And if you use the IT or S3M format, you can get 16-bit 44100hz samples straight to your module.

The S3M format supports 16-bit samples, but the only known tracker to implement this capability is the Open ModPlug Tracker.

You can also have 44096Hz samples in XM modules.

Not everyone uses OpenMPT, and most importantly it cannot do a batch conversion like the script in the original post.

Maybe that's not what the original poster wanted to do? Why do you think the script is called "makeamiga" - Make Amiga?

Pretty much all trackers that support S3M except the original ScreamTracker itself support 16-bit samples. But again that misses the point.
