QuadMation has released a Carbonized version of PlayerPro, the company’s music composition utility that’s capable of creating files in the MOD format. PlayerPro 5.8 is a freeware optimized for Mac OS X, according to Shenan Kuo, director of marketing for Quadmation.
A MOD file is significant, as it is a totally self-contained music file with a reasonable file size. It was intended originally as a compact way of storing background music for games and demonstration programs, but it has since grown to become a favorite file format for online music exchange.
PlayerPro is also capable of playing and importing almost any music file that you can find. “Unlike most programs, which either work with MIDI files or sampled files, PlayerPro can deal with both,” said Quadmation.
Detailed product info, order information, and a free download of the updater and demo version of PlayerPro 5.8 can be obtained at the Quadmation download site.
