- The .sou file extension is associated with SBStudio II, a music composition and editing program. A .sou file represents a SBStudio II Sound File, which contains audio data used by the software. These files are typically used to store instrument sounds or sound effects that can be integrated into music tracks created within the SBStudio II environment. The format is designed specifically for use with the SBStudio II software, making it a specialized audio file type for music production within this specific program.
- Compressed audio file similar to an .MP3 file, but offers several performance improvements; examples include a higher coding efficiency for both stationary and transient signals, a simpler filterbank, and better handling of frequencies above 16 kHz; maintains quality nearly indistinguishable from the original audio source.
