Short: Converts MED files to XM's (PPC support!) Author: pynjo@jytol.fi (Jouko Pynnonen) Uploader: pynjo@jytol.fi (Jouko Pynnonen) Type: mus/misc MED2XM is a little shell utility to convert OctaMED Sound Studio modules (MMD1, MMD2, MMD3) to XM (FastTracker 2) modules. Usage is simple: at the shell prompt type med2xm and the program will create a new XM module, appending ".xm" to the output file name. Limitations It can't convert a module that has * more than 32 channels (since this is the XM limit) * patterns that have more than 128 lines (same reason) * hold, decay * synthetic or hybrid instruments * MIDI instruments * multiple songs * other similar weirdnesses I may have forgot New Features in V1.3 * Fixed a bug which under certain conditions caused command C64 to be converted to C00 * Added PPC support!! If ppc.library can be opened, the program will load and execute med2xm.elf instead of the 68k code. If you find bugs or tunes that won't get converted right/at all, please e-mail me about them. If possible, just tell where I can find the problematic OctaMED module, instead of e-mailing it to me ('coz I'd probably get giga- bytes of them). And of course, if you think this is a brilliant utility, i don't mind getting some positive feedback either. Note: the author isn't responsible for ANYTHING this program does, as usual.
