For more information refer to a sound tag tutorial.

Confirmed working on:
Windows XP (32-bit)
Windows 7 (64-bit)
Windows 10 (64-bit)

If using a different operating system, let me know if it works.

What exactly was updated?

I had previously released a version that only worked for 64-bit systems. This one should work for 32-bit and 64-bit.

The old version worked on W10 64bit so I'll try this new one when I get home but if the only update is that it works with 32bit then I don't see why it wouldn't.

It probably will still work, but if you are willing to try this one be sure to first uninstall the previous version through the control panel under Programs and Features.

Who uses 32bit???

Yes.


Apparently someone, hence why the latest Windows has a 32-bit version.

Ok.

If you want a more accurate answer, I guess it'd be people with outdated hardware. So Latinos?

I know some latinos with some pretty balling hardware. Then again all their dads are druglords so....yeah

Works on Windows 10 (64bit)

Now i can import my voice for my proyect.

Thanks for testing.


You'd probably want to use OGG instead. For one, your sound quality isn't great so OGG can have a smaller filesize by using a low quality compression. Also, Xbox ADPCM is primarily used for sound effects, not dialogue.

Xbox is fine with dialog. You're not going to get any issues.

Your certainty is incorrect. All or most dialogue for Halo PC is in OGG format.


True, but specifying a bitrate is not possible with Xbox ADPCM. If you're going to have minutes worth of dialogue, it's going to use quite a bit of space compared to OGG.

OGG also sounds significantly better.

Holy canolli tark! How did you achieve such crisp lighting whilst maintaining a smooth and jitter free frame rate?

Oh and this should totally feature in ce32k16. Will there be a MP .YELO release also?
