Title: FFTA sound files extraction (Solved)
Post by: iKnowNothing on July 12, 2019, 08:00:04 pm
Is there any way to exctract all the game sounds (magic sounds, hit sounds, menu sounds etc.) from the GBA rom?

I need them very god damn much, but I am a total noob at this and I have no idea how to do it.

I tried cutting the music out in audition, but I don't know how to export the file as a raw PCM file and then convert it into GBA, so I could just record the sounds in the game without music.

If I'm doing something wrong - please, tell me. Or if there is just NO WAY to get the sound files - please, tell me too. Google didn't help at all. :(

Thanks in advance :3

There is no standard for what sound is like in the GBA, each game can have a completely different system, but lots of games use the same audio engine, m4a, and there's a tool just for that engine: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3m004vettv9g3og/AACutAL7MHdYy3YV2sm2EPKra/ToolBox/SappyMid2Agb?dl=0&subfolder_nav_tracking=1

This tool should work with FFTA

I found a forum where some guy said that you can use GbaMusRipper and foobar2000 to get the sounds from most of the GBA games. It worked with FFTA too!  ^_^

But thanks for your reply tho!

Here's a download link for the archive with all the sounds:
