What is this file format for these multitracks, and how do you open them? I don't seem to have an association with windows. Is this something like a zip file?

Moggs are a version of .ogg (ogg vorbis)....most commonly found within the Rockband game for Xbox etc.
They are a little like a zip file too, because they can contain more than one sound file.
The only way i know of extracting to a useable format is as follows......
1. ....get Audacity, the free audio editor, go for version 1.3 (Beta)....some people experience problems with the older 1.2 version...me included.

2....once you have downloaded and installed Audacity, go to "file"...and "open"....select any .mogg file you have been lucky enough to find!

Audacity will then read the .mogg and open it like this!


What you see is the song you dowloaded as a multitrack...drums, bass, guitar, vocal etc.
You can then do anything you please with it!...or nothing at all...just save it as a more convenient format.

To save to a useable format, go to "file"..."export multiple"...select the format of your choice...Wav, Flac, mp3 etc....and you are good to go!

thanks! yes, the reason is (quite obviously) your multitracks postings!

Hey guys,
I wanted to start a thread dedicated to mogg files. Basically Im hoping to get people here to post everything known about this file format in a hope to better understand its makeup. Hopefully we can keep the discussion more technically oriented but all questions and ideas are welcome...
Discuss...

I have merged the existing thread about it that was in the Help section.

Ahhhhh....home.
