Features

• Load and play a wide variety of audio formats not natively supported by GameMaker:Studio (e.g. MP3, MIDI, MOD, S3M, XM, IT, etc.).
• Play MIDI files using DLS1 sound banks.
• Add custom loop points to sounds. This allows, for example, a music track to have an intro section that can seamlessly transition into an infinitely looping main section without having to break them up into two separate files.
• Dynamically change to volume, playback frequency and relative pitch of a sound.
• Analyze an audio stream using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and obtain its spectrum data.
• Support for DSP effects such as flange, reverb and filters.
• Extract tag information from audio files (e.g. ID3 tags from MP3s and Vorbis tags from OGGs).
• Supports various audio output modes (e.g. ASIO, WASAPI, ALSA).
