Very weird raw data sound I got from a program

[KillerCop311]

The file's name was Autoplay.exe, and it was for a Pump It Up remake for PC (all songs from NX, NX2, and NXA).

The audio file is here, beware, it is loud at some points.

this is what the audio looks like


During it, somehow, sounds from the game are being played. Some seem distorted, while others are slowed down, normal, or just different.

Discuss.

this is not a arg I swear

put the bubble's screensaver in, it sounds so weird

blend files produce interesting results too

[Acerblock]

Try normalizing and compressing the audio.

for the curious

It does sound weird, reminds me of the C64 for some reason

So you got audio from an .exe?

[Stick Man]

Wonderful not-an-arg you have here, Alex.

Now seriously, has anybody decoded the sound yet?

not quite, I used something to make it audio

as in:
open audacity
file -> import -> raw data
select any file and boom raw data

most files just make random noise but exes and dlls have interesting personalities

listening to what these programs are as sound is kind of unsettling. the lonely life of an exe

I tried this with Mirilis Action!

It goes on for 6 minutes.

Did this with tb_toad, a vst for 8-bit sounding drums.

It just plays all the sound files, which is pretty cool.

I experimented with Mystify and Ribbons (screensavers), and Ribbons is pretty much Mystify sped up by 50%.

quickly, see what comes out in binary.

the .dll for NI Massive is strange.

For almost half the raw data, it's just the same repeating pattern sped up and then slowed down. There are some really nice bass-y sounding noises in there too though, and I think I'm going to extract them and put them into Harmor for resampling or some stuff.

Infact, most VST .dlls have very bass-y sounds throughout them.
