💖 mod2opus 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to mod2opus — it's a lil wrapper script from the hxtools collection, section 1 of the manual, and honestly? it's giving glow-up for your crusty old module files ✨

✨ NAME ✨

mod2opus — a wrapper for tracker module/MIDI to Opus transcoding 🎀

🦋 SYNTAX 🦋

mod2opus file...

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So here's the tea ☕ — most, if not literally all, mobile players (you know, the "MP3 player" era relics and the "smartphone" in your pocket rn) still cannot do tracker modules or MIDI. ngl, they just can't. what they need is a regular premixed file. 💀

That's where this program comes in, and she ate. This wrapper converts files like .mod, .xm, .it, etc. to Opus using Timidity++ or XMP. 🎶

🫶 heads up though: for MIDI, timidity's presence is required. no timidity, no MIDI magic. periodt.
