S3M to FLAC Converter

Convert S3M to FLAC


S3M to FLAC Conversion Software converts S3M files to FLAC and keeps ID3 tag. The converter offers many useful features. For example, automatically normalizes volume of S3M and FLAC so that all output files have the same volume; skips the first X milliseconds of S3M and FLAC files when converting; only converts X milliseconds of S3M and FLAC files; joins multiple files to one file. The converter also convert files to popular formats such as AAC, AMR, AU, MP3, M4R (iPhone ringtone), WMA, AWB, MMF, etc. It could convert VOB to MMF, XM to VOC, 3GP to AU, MPC to OGG, MLP to VOC, WM to MMF, and so on.

The software is very easy to use and supports batch conversion. It is full compatible with Windows 10/8/7/Vista/XP/2000 including both 32-bit and 64-bit editions.

What is S3M?
The S3M format is an advanced module format, and is the successor to the STM format used by the original Scream Tracker. Both formats are based on the original MOD format used on the Commodore Amiga computer.

The S3M format has many differences compared to its predecessors.

  • The format is a hybrid of digital playback and synthesized instruments. The official format specification document covers space for 16 digital channels and 14 synthesized ones with two unused slots out of a total of 32.
  • Separate volume channel in pattern data.
  • Supports more instruments than MOD or STM (99 instead of 31).
  • Default panning of channels can be specified by the composer.
  • Extra-fine pitch slides are added
  • Instruments are not limited to a fixed sample rate for a given note. The format stores the instrument's sample rate at middle C.

The period table used by S3M is smaller than the one used by the MOD format (only 12 entries, compared to between 36 and 60 for the MOD variations) and uses larger values in order to be able to compute the extra-fine pitch slides. The playback routines, however, use relatively straightfoward formulas to get the final period values used in playback. The key formula for this takes into account the instrument's stored sample rate at middle C.

What is FLAC?
Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC) is a file format for lossless audio data compression. Being lossless, FLAC does not remove information from the audio stream, as lossy compression formats such as MP3, AAC, and Vorbis do. FLAC's primary author is Josh Coalson. FLAC reduces bandwidth and storage requirements without sacrificing the integrity of the audio source. A digital audio recording (such as a CD track) encoded to FLAC can be decompressed into an identical copy of the audio data. Audio sources encoded to FLAC are typically reduced in size 40 to 50 percent (46% according to their own comparison). FLAC is suitable for everyday audio playback and archival, with support for tagging, cover art and fast seeking. FLAC's free and open source royalty-free nature makes it well-supported by many software applications, but FLAC playback support in portable audio devices and dedicated audio systems is limited at this time.
