- Description
- xWMA is a container format for compressed audio data developed by Microsoft, based on Windows Media Audio (WMA) compression but with a simplified header structure optimized for streaming and playback via the XAudio2 API. It is primarily used in Xbox and Windows game development to store sound effects and music efficiently.
- The VOC file format is an audio file format primarily used by Creative Technology's Sound Blaster sound cards for storing digital audio data. Developed by Creative Labs, the VOC format was widely used for storing sound samples and music files on PCs during the late 1980s and early 1990s. VOC files support mono and stereo sounds at various sampling rates and can contain multiple sound snippets and silence segments, making them versatile for a range of audio applications, including video games, sound effects, and voice.
