I've spent the better part of a day trying to get the soundbank from Gauntlet Dark Legacy into a playable format so I could use the announcer in other games.
The game's soundbank has a different format than the game's score, VBK, which vgmstream doesn't seem to support. I saw a thread where snakemeat added support for PS2 VBK in an unofficial build, the link for which has since gone offline. Though, I'm not sure it would have helped, since for all I know they could be totally different formats with a similar extension. Thinking about it now, I suppose I could try playing a VBK from Disney's Stitch to find out.
Anyway, I've been messing around with GENH; mostly trial and error, since I don't know much of anything about audio codecs. I was able to get some intelligible audio with the following settings:
...but the audio remains heavily distorted and scratchy, and the pitch becomes progressively lower as the playback goes on seemingly no matter what settings I try. I'm in over my head, so I thought I'd ask the experts. What am I dealing with here?
Here's the file in question:
VOICE1.VBK
Any help is appreciated! Thanks for reading.
edit: I should probably note that this is the Xbox version. The NGC soundbank is also VBK, though it comes with some sort of command line conversion utility that requires a dsp file I don't have, plus others.
