Hi all!
I couldn't find a specific 'music ripping' thread so stuck it in this one for now. If it's in the wrong place then my forum searching skills are as bad as my memory these days.
Although I'm new here as a member, I've been visiting on and off for years for lurking and learning. I'm an old skool Atari ST music ripper so I guess it's a case of 'old habits die hard'
I'm slowly getting the hang of the SDAT->MIDI+DLS->Impulse Tracker ripping (mainly tunes I like or someone has asked me to acquire so they can do a remix etc.) and bumping into the odd oldskool .MOD and .XM files along the way.
Is there a sticky of 'what you've found lurking inside a game'?
I've probably got lots of questions about some of the other common filetypes I keep seeing (video files stored as .MODS?) and common or garden ones. But they can wait until I've lurked a lot more.
I've only just learned about other the existence of other tools to extract the SDAT files (been using one tool to extract and VGTrans to convert) so more learning is good for an old lag like me to keep the grey cells ticking over.
I've been dumping all my rips (so far) into the newsgroups so they're easily found if you want to be nosey .. for at least the next 580+ days
