The FMOD Wrappers are available here:
<http://developer.chaoticbox.com/> and the FMOD library and licensing
information is available here: <http://fmod.org/>. Although I wrote the
wrappers, I have no association with the FMOD author other than being a
satisfied user.
FMOD supports MOD, S3M, XM, and IT tracker formats, which can be
accessed via the FMODmusic class supplied in the wrappers. There's a
"2D Sound Example.rb" project included that contains a simple mod
player. I wouldn't recommend converting MODs to MIDI, as the main
reason for using MOD is to avoid horrid GM soundbanks that may or may
not sound anything alike across systems or hardware (or Quicktime
versions for that matter).
Also note that "Wrapper" in this case doesn't mean it's just a bunch of
declares. The project consists of high level classes that work much
like the built-in Sound class but use FMOD under the hood to gain more
advanced features. I should probably change the names of all my
"wrapper" projects...
Frank.

Howdy Josh,
You cannot plays these "out of the box."
You can get FMOD Wrappers to use the FMOD libraries or whatever,
though.
Search the RB archives, because I iknow FMOD Wrappers has been posted
somewhere.
FMOD is not totally free, however. Once you find the link to FMOD
Wrappers
(and FMOD...) be sure to read the licensing terms.

Hi,
Is it possible to play .mod and .xm files through RealBasic? Or would
I
have to convert them into .midi files?
Thanks,
Josh
