XMODITS

A tool to bulk extract samples from various tracker modules with ease.

Download

You can download builds for xmodits here.

If you wish to build from source, go to building.

If you prefer to use a minimal version of this tool, a command line version of xmodits can be found here. Additionally, the command line version has more supported architectures.

Supported Tracker Formats

Extension	Format
.it	Impulse Tracker
.xm	Extended Module
.s3m	Scream Tracker 3
.mod	Amiga Pro Tracker
.mptm	ModPlug Tracker module
.umx	Unreal Music Package (Containing above)

Supported Exports

Extension	Format
.wav	Microsoft Wave
.aiff	Audio Interchange File Format
.its	Impulse Tracker 2 sample
.s3i	Scream Tracker 3 Instrument
.8svx	8-Bit Sampled Voice
.raw	Headerless pcm

Features

• A robust naming system for extracted samples (see Sample Naming).
• Can export samples to less common audio formats used by music trackers: .its, .s3i & .8svx
• Can show information about a module.
• A sample previewer.
• Multithreaded ripping* for better efficiency.
• Cute animated fox to make ripping less tedious.

* xmodits will only use threads if it is ripping from a directory.

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.

Building

Requirements:

• Rust compiler: https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install
• Minimum rust version: 1.75
• A decent computer if you don't want to wait a while:
  • At least 4 cores,
  • At least 8GB of RAM

(Linux) Dependencies:

• fontconfig
• libasound2-dev (If building with audio feature)

Clone the source code (latest):

git clone https://github.com/B0ney/xmodits

Alternatively, you can download different versions from: https://github.com/B0ney/xmodits/tags

Compile:

cd xmodits

cargo build --release

NOTE: Older versions will have slightly different build instructions. Additionally, versions below v0.9.8 are CLI only.

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
wgpu	Enables hardware acceleration (DX12/Vulkan/Metal).	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

Build flags used in official releases:

Target	Features
Windows	audio, built, iced_gif,manual
MacOS	audio, built, iced_gif,manual, wgpu
Linux	audio, built, iced_gif,manual, jemalloc
