How do I convert my Amiga Modules to mp3 or wav?
« on: August 20, 2004, 04:00:55 PM »

I use deliplayer on my PC to play all my fave old amiga modules (Turrican II soundtrack & firefox + tip etc.) but I wanna convert these to MP3/WAV or simialar so I can burn these to CD.  Can anyone offer some advice or simple instructions?

Thanks in advance!

I use DeliTracker for this kind of stuff on the Amiga, but it was possible with some tracker on the PC. I have mod CD but it was burned 6 years ago (on PC), so I don't have much memories about what software I used then.

The simplest way is to buy the PC version of OctaMED and load them into that, that can output them as wav/mp3 or whatever other codec you have installed.

Secondspin might be what your looking for, if your gonna use an Amiga that is. Great program.

SecondSpin is a good option (and fast!) but the way i always converted my mods was thru DigiBoosterPro. This way i could edit the mods a bit. A bit of panning to create some "real" stereo mods. Just render it as AIFF/WAV, load it in SecondSpin and convert it as Mp3.
To make it sound a bit more realistic and professional: Load the AIFF/WAV in the nifty program "Cathedral" and add a small itsy-bitsy reverb. This'll sound great!!!
 HAve phun!

Winamp has pretty good MOD support, and a wave-out function.  All my mod/xm files work great, no weird compatibility issues.  I think it is using the mikmod library, but I'm at work and can't remember.  Any Amiga 4/8 channel mod's will work fine, tho I've seen playback issues with some of the newer mod formats (like Impulse Tracker).

uade big:modules/mod.KnullaKuk -outpipe 1 | lame -h -r IN: t:KnullaKuk.mp3

Uade has pretty much perfect playback, as it emulates original amiga processor + audio hw with cycle precision. Output is 16bit stereo, which is piped to stdout and further encoded with lame.

ModPlug generates excellent output, but I don't think it supports TFMX.

Uade supports a lot of moduleformats, including TFMX 1.x, TFMX 7V and TFMX Pro.

All playroutines are emulated in cycle exact Amiga environment, so the output is pretty much as good as it can get.
