BRSTM Converter is a program written in Java (but using other programs, like SoX and BrawlLib, to do the actual conversion) that you can use to do batch conversions to BRSTM and/or batch modifications of certain audio attributes:

• lower the sample rate (absolute or relative), to reduce file size
• convert to mono - for stereo sound, it cuts the file size in half
• amplify audio by a given factor (in amplitude or dB)

Supported input formats include:

• WAV, FLAC, Ogg Vorbis, and any other format supported by SoX (full list)
• MP3 (also through SoX)
• BRSTM and any other format supported by vgmstream (full list from README)
• VGM/VGZ (through VGMPlay)
  You can find VGM packs at:
  • SMS Power! (Master System, Game Gear)
  • Project 2612 (Sega Genesis)
  • vgmrips (Other)

For more information, click the Help button on the program's initial options dialog.

The program supports command-line arguments (run java -jar "BRSTM Converter.jar" --help for more information.)

Known bugs:

• It probably won't work with Linux+wine unless you put dspadpcm.exe in the folder tools/dspadpcm and use that instead of StandaloneBRSTMBuilder.

Output .brstms are put in the "output" folder.

You'll need the Java Runtime Environment: http://java.com/

Note: on the "file open" dialog, you can hold down Ctrl to select multiple files at once before clicking OK.

How to use loop.txt: specify a loop start, a loop end, and a filename on each line, like so:

853168 5087322 41 Carefree Action.wav

The program should automatically adjust both the start and end points for you if the start point is not divisible by 14336.
