Hello, i have a question about nintendo ds homebrew app making.
So im trying to do a game here and i found out limitations for audios in libnds + NightFox's Lib.
And using already existing music is... way above than 256kb when i convert it to .raw with lowest settings NFLib supports.

And i would like to try to do my own music too so... is there any apps that could help me make
music for nintendo ds homebrew apps below 256kb?

So you are going for wave type music as opposed to sequenced (think midi)? I don't know much about the devkitarm or whatever libraries for this sort of thing but if you say there is a size limit then sounds reasonable. No option to slice it up and stream it?

Have you looked to see what the various efforts on https://www.gamebrew.org/wiki/Category:Music_homebrews_on_DS https://www.gamebrew.org/wiki/Category:Homebrew_music_games_on_DS did? Or indeed several of the games in general have fairly long tracks when all is said and done.

in reply to FAST6191 since im limited to not include links and stuff and replies:
i havent thought about splicing music... but that seems like one of the best options for me. i should try that out since that means i could keep good quality .wav music in my games, and i have more options with that. thank you!
