Tutorial - Extract music (.brstm, .hps ...) and play it in your pc

[RupeeClock]

Gives me more music to listen to on my PC, yay.

Now I just need an easy method, preferably batch, of converting the audio to MP3 so I can use it on my iPod.
Also noticed that Twilight Princess uses .ast instead of .brstm, but it works all the same.

Just start the Start.bat , then you get the stereo track splitted in right and left , just join them with audacity ( the problem with that is that you have to put the effects manually ( loops and fade out ))

Oh really? thanks for the tip! I didn't know Winamp can convert files.... +rep

[Xtinction]

if i try to convert the .brstm files with winamp, it says the decoder could not be found

if i try to use the program linked by KHRZ, the file created is .brstm as well.

is there any other program to convert .brstm to .mp3 or similar?

i used winamp pro 5.52 for this.

any help would be appreciated.

ONLY rip and convert music when game publisher don't release a OST (original soundtrack) disc. Stop use and delete your ripped music immediately if they do so.

Own yourself a legal copy of the game, this will support your publisher.

Do this as your own risk of any illegal actions.

If you agree, you may proceed.

___________________________________________________________

What you will need:
1. Dolphin emulator, probably REV 4913 or above.
2. Winamp and with in_cube.dll plug-in installed.
3. Your game copy and its ISO file.

You have to extract your music some where 1st, you will be able to do it with this tutorial: ssbbtriforce tutorial for ripping music

Step 1. open your music with Winamp


Press Alt+3 to open file details, memorize the frequency rate.

Step 2.


Press Crtl+P to open Preferences, in the left panel, you will find Plug-ins, and under it, Output. Click on it

In the right panel, click (highlight) the [out-disk.dll] plug-in, and click on configure

Step 3.


Configure your output folder. Then open format selection as the picture shows.
Format: as your wish, in this picture, it's MP3.
Arttibute: Now choose the option with the frequency rate in step 1. How also find bitrate next to it, as well as audio option: Mono/stereo. Higher bitrate and stereo will give better qualities.

Step 4.

After done everything as above, you simply may click play the file. Make sure you don't put it 'Repeat' option so it won't make duplicate. Also to convert in a large number, you just have to make a playlist, then your computer will play the rest.

PLEASE OWN THE GAME LEGALLY BEFORE RIP.

Thanks for the tutorial, but what about .SON files? Road Trip: The Arcade Edition (by Takara) has these type of files in the 'sound' folder.

Going by the midi filenames they are likely sequenced so no dice.

Also, in_cube isn't developed anymore, it was replaced by vgmstream, and builds are compiled regularly here: http://hcs64.com/files/vgmstream/
