NBSTool is a program which provides some convenient tools to work with .nbs (Open Note Block Studio) files.
- Work with multiple files;
- Open old formats (such as .mcsp2);
- Modify header information and change between versions;
- Arrange notes by instruments;
- [Deprecated] Import from MuseScore files:
- Only files created by MuseScore 3 and 4 are supported;
- Support the following features:
- Song title, author, tempo and time signature (with some limits);
- Most of GM instruments to Minecraft instruments;
- Percussion instruments (drum set);
- Dotted, tied and normal notes and rests;
- Notes' tuning and velocity;
- Tuplets and notes whose duration less than 16th (by expanding the spaces between notes);
- Voices.
- Import from MIDI files:
- Only type 1MIDI files are tested;
- Support importing note velocity, note panning and note fine-pitch;
- Allow importing MIDI notes as multiple successive fading-out NBS notes;
- Can automatically expand distance between notes to fit as many note as possible.
- Import from JSON files;
- Export to JSON, MIDI or audio files:
- MIDI conversion does not support custom instruments;
- JSON export files are useful to understand how .nbs files are stored internally;
- Export to audio:
- Supported formats: MP3, WAV, OGG and FLAC.
- Require ffmpeg to render audio. On Windows, ffmpeg have already been shipped with the program. On Linux, you need to install
ffmpegto use this feature;
- Datapack export (this is for my personal use, currently not documented).
