AY, GBS, GYM, HES, KSS, NSF/NSFE, SAP, SFM, SGC, SPC, and VGM, but not VGZ, because I was lazy. Rename and gunzip them first, I guess.

VGZ has been added, and KDDLB has made a C# GUI.

E: And now SPU.

Great work! I'm having trouble with VGZ, though. VGM and the rest work fine.

How do I use this? Is it a foobar component?

This is a stand-alone utility, designed to rip individual chip channels directly to .wav files, for mixing. Obviously, this is not usable for xSF formats, where it is next to useless, since most of the xSF formats employ dynamic channel allocation on playback, so individual sound channels get scattered across all the hardware channels in a seemingly random fashion.

Also, it obviously can't work for vgmstream. What you'd want for that is the Channel Mixer DSP, and downmix individual tracks with the channels you want, either at playback time, or convert them to some other format. It could probably use a settings file to allow describing downmixing settings for individual tracks, such as split a 6 channel track into 3 stereo subsongs.

That's another thing vgmstream needs: subsong support, for the few formats that may actually benefit from it. Maybe in the future...

There are also a few audio drivers for SNES that employ dynamic channel allocation on playback. I guess the best solution for these and most xSF formats would be tracking the usage of specific samples/instruments (or more bluntly soloing one sample/instrument after another) instead taking the hardware channels verbatim. Though I'm sure that's a big-ish change for most if not all players' playback code.

Can you please add options to change the times the song is looped and enable/disable fadeouts (a la vgmstream)?
by kode54 at 8:44 PM EDT on August 18, 2017
The numbers of times a song is looped is only relevant to VGM format and GYM format, not any of the others, which rely on manual timing tags to determine the length and fade times.

Got it, thanks!

When editing the timing tags for SPC files using the foobar plugin - only whole second increments seem to be possible, not millisecond adjustments (which appear necessary to get accurate end times). Am I doing something wrong?
