  • Can export samples to less common audio formats used by music trackers: .its, .s3i & .8svx
  • Can show information about a module.
  • A sample previewer.

How to Use

  1. Open application
  2. Drag and drop a module, and or a folder full of modules.
  3. (Optional) Press "Open" to set the destination folder. Your downloads folder is the default.
  4. Press "Start"
  5. Press "Show Folder" to see the results.

(Windows Only) If you just want to simply extract samples, you can also drag and drop a module(s) onto the binary. XMODITS will (by default) place the samples in a self contained folder in your ~/Downloads folder.

Sample Naming

Configure how ripped samples are named.

Parameter Description
Index Only Samples will only be named with an index.
Preserve Index Sample index will match how it is represented internally.
Prefix Samples Samples will be prefixed with the tracker's filename.
Upper Case Samples will be named in upper case.
Lower Case Samples will be named in lower case.
Prefer Filename Some samples have an additional filename. If present, xmodits will name samples with that.
Index Padding Set the minimum amount of digits an index must have. Indexes will be padded with zeros to match the minimum amount of digits*. Set to 1 to disable padding.

* xmodits may override this value to ensure that samples are named consistently (unless it is set to 1).

Ripping Configuration

Parameter Description
Self Contained XMODITS will put samples in a self contained folder.
Export Format Samples can be saved to the following formats: [ wav, aiff, 8svx, its, s3i, raw ]
Folder Scan Depth Limit how far a folder can be traversed.
Worker Threads Set how many threads can be used to rip samples in parallel.

Build Flags

Feature Description Enabled by Default?
audio Add audio playback, used to preview samples. yes
built Includes metadata about the binary and the environment it was compiled in. Useful for bug reporting. yes
jemalloc (*nix only) Use the jemalloc memory allocator. Used to mitigate memory fragmentation which can improve memory footprint. no

iced_gif Include animated GIF YES
manual Bundle a simplified readme in the application yes

For example, to compile XMODITS with jemalloc and wgpu:

cargo build --release --features="jemalloc","wgpu"

Compile XMODITS with default features disabled:

cargo build --release --no-default-features
