Someone knows how to convert the .xm files of milkytracker to some media files like WAV or MP3!!
Please!!!! 

[raina]

On one condition: lose the marquee formatting!

In MilkyTracker, press Ctrl(-Alt)-R to access the HD Recorder without passing go or collecting $200.00. (This is available in Disk Op. as well.) You can write WAV files with said recorder function.

You can also use modplugtracker's convert to WAV-option or install the "convert to mp3"-tool for modplugtracker. Personally, I prefer to convert my MadTracker .xm-files to WAV using modplugtracker and convert WAV-files to mp3 using SMTP-player, which has a sweet mp3-splitter function.

there is no "convert to mp3" tool for modplug. modplug can make use of all available mp3 codecs, i.e. the ones installed in the system. Or you can put them in the same folder as mptrack.exe.

Perhaps my bad.. if I remember correctly, MPT could output a low-quality mp3-file, but that was quite a long time ago.

Sounds like that would be the crappy Microsoft MP3 codec, installed in the system.

[Saga Musix]

Yes, that's the "advanced" fraunhofer codec. by simply putting LAME in modplug's folder, you can have high-quality MP3 output. I prefer wav export, though:
1) You can also convert to OGG (note to self: modplug needs ogg support!)
2) You can do post-production, e.g. normalize the waveform

Hi all,

For batch processing (wanna put ALL your mods straight onto your MP3 player? for some reason?) go get foobar player, then find the add-on called foobar_dumb (no links here sorry), Load up foobar and load the "mod" folder into the playlist (the extension will recognise most module formats, even a few obscure ones!), highlight all, right-click Convert and set your options... you will need to d/l LAME mp3 converter and put it somewhere in reach of foobar for this to work, then set your options, press the "GO" key and go make a cuppa. The only problem with this is you wont be able to read the track name/artist name/other info on your mp3 player (i could be wrong about this but I dont see how an mp3 player can recognise any mod info) ...

Be sure to set your stereo spread to how you like it too!

Have fun kiddos
