About formats

TTA (True Audio) is a real-time lossless audio compression codec developed by Aleksander Djourik, with its origins tracing back to the early 2000s. The format reconstructs the original PCM stream bit-for-bit upon decoding, guaranteeing that no sonic detail is lost during storage or transfer. TTA handles standard CD-quality audio as well as high-resolution content up to 32-bit integer samples, making it suitable for everyday listening and professional archiving alike. Processing speed is one of TTA's defining strengths — the codec achieves fast encoding and decoding without heavy CPU demands, keeping it lightweight even on older hardware. The file structure supports ID3v1, ID3v2, and APEv2 metadata tags, so track information and album art travel with the audio. Hardware support appeared in several portable players, giving TTA a practical edge over some competing lossless formats. The open-source reference implementation ships under the GNU GPL, encouraging community adoption and third-party integrations. While newer codecs like FLAC have captured a larger share of the lossless audio landscape, TTA continues to serve users who value its simplicity and transparent compression.

8SVX (8-Bit Sampled Voice) is an audio file format created as part of the Interchange File Format specification for Commodore's Amiga platform. Introduced around 1985 by Electronic Arts, it stores 8-bit audio samples with optional Fibonacci delta compression to reduce file sizes. The format organizes data in IFF chunks — a VHDR chunk for header information (sample rate, octave count, compression type) and a BODY chunk containing the audio payload. 8SVX powered everything from game sound effects to sampled music in tracker software across the Amiga ecosystem. One key advantage is its straightforward chunk-based architecture, which makes parsing and generation remarkably simple compared to modern containers. Another benefit is native support for one-shot samples, looping regions, and multi-octave instrument definitions within a single file, making it valuable for early music production. Although the Amiga platform has faded from mainstream use, 8SVX files remain important for retro computing enthusiasts and archivists preserving classic software and audio content.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is 8SVX?

8SVX is the Amiga standard for 8-bit sampled audio — part of the IFF container used throughout the Amiga ecosystem.

Why convert TTA to 8SVX?

Amiga game development, demoscene, and retro computing projects require 8SVX audio that modern codecs cannot output.

What handles 8SVX?

WinUAE and other Amiga emulators, SoX, and vintage computing tools play and process 8SVX files.

Will quality be reduced?

8SVX is 8-bit — high-res TTA audio will be adapted. This is inherent to the Amiga audio specification.

Is it secure?

TTA uploads are deleted immediately. 8SVX results are removed from servers within 24 hours.
