- Description
- A VQF file, standing for TwinVQ (Vector Quantized) Audio File, is a compressed audio format developed by NTT (Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation) in the late 1990s. It was designed to offer higher compression rates compared to the more commonly used MP3 format, aiming to produce smaller file sizes while retaining a similar audio quality.
- 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.
