MOD to MP3 converter

[sw2001]

Is there a program which can do that?

To convert either MOD to MP3

or MOD to WAV

Thanks for answers

[RetroMan]

Just fire up WinAMP and use the Disk Writer Plugin to save the MOD as WAV to HD

[sw2001]

Thanks RetroMan

just did, works great

BTW if somebody is looking for XM to WAV converter:

Same choice, Modplug Mod engine is much better than winamp one.
Or if you need winamp, use at least one better mod engine like this: http://download.abime.net/winamp/in_sk00l.zip

Another option is XMPlay (http://www.un4seen.com/) or foobar which works better than modplug player/winamp and uses bass.dll.

There is http://www.deliplayer.com/ but I think you have to pay for output converter option.

Yes, found this in Docs.

The Stream Recorder plugin writes the audio-output of DeliPlayer into a file. Please note that this plugin only creates mono in the Freeware version of DeliPlayer 2. If you want to save the output in stereo you should upgrade to DeliPlayer 2 Pro.

Mmm something else to add to faq

Edit: Done

If you want to play a bit with Linux or if you have already installed it, get uade and use the script i wrote ( included ) to batch and non interactively convert almost every kind of mods to ogg / wave / flac , with the possibility to also add various effects.

Use Winuae

[sw2001]

thanks for all your answers

winuae and modplug player - a great combination for that job!!!

also that WinAmp plugin is a great solution

but: some files won't stop and turn into a loop. Is there a way to fix that?

[BippyM]

yeah, use WinUAE directly

[Axxy]

Is that in Modplug player? (i.e. it keeps recording the .wav)
Make sure you are using 1.46 of mpp. I had the same problem with one of the versions. Or it could be down to resources. Reboot your machine before generating the .wav file.

@ bippym
I don't know if I'm doing it the right way in WinUAE:
I go to output and choose Audio - CD Quality - PCM
then click on Pro Wizard
and sometimes it works (mod files)
but most times I get the message "No modules or compressed data found"

@ Axxman
everything ok in MPP, but some codes it won't convert
that happens in WinAMP sometimes (TFMX)

@ RetroMan
how can you disable the seeking bar in WinAmp?

@Paul
Thanks for the XMPlayer:
I'm just trying out some convertion stuff and it looks pretty good

[BippyM]

SW2001: You are not doing it right, Goto Audio and select the bitrate etc (PCM 44100), then goto ouput and select only an audio codec not a video, the select the filetype and when the file browser comes up goto the filetype bit and select WAV instead of avi.

Now when you restart winuae it'll record all the sounds (everything).

Simply edit the WAV to keep what you require

[sw2001]

doesn't work with me, maybe I am using a differnt version of WinUAE, I have v.0.9.91

[BippyM]

If you are still here go onto the IRC chan and I'll take you through it ;D

[sw2001]

thanks, works great now

MOD to MP3?OK but what about MP3 to MOD? Is there a program that will do?

[Kodoichi]

You're either very smart or very stupid.

[Photon]

Try any audio recording software on the PC to record any sound, even that which comes out of WinUAE. (Set it to record "what u hear" or wave out.)

Deliplayer is by far the best mod player imo.

[Dr. Dude]

er... hello? Wake up, a mp3 to mod? That will end up in 1 singel intrument

Why want to make a mp3 a mod anyway?
