[comp.music] *.MOD

hmatisa@wpi.WPI.EDU (Huzrei M. Isa) (01/04/91)

In some FTP sites I found files with extension MOD (*.MOD).  Are these sound
blaster or Adlib files?  Are they music or voice files?  If they are music
files, what program file do I have to get to play them?

Thanks

.MOD files come from the Amiga world. They are music files with sampled
instruments. They can be played on a SoundBlaster with an utility called
TrakBlaster, available from the ccb.ucsf.edu. If you have a 386, you
must slow it to 8Mhz though.

I'm running TrakBlaster on my 16MHz 386SX with no problems...just a quick
observation.
