This document is about the format of Banner's CTR Wave files (BCWAV).
This document is about the format of Binary CTR Wave files (BCWAV). The structure is very similar to Microsoft's Wave file.
 
The structure is very similar to Microsoft's Wave file.
 
Banner CWAV total channels must be 2, and the length of the audio in seconds must be 3 seconds or less.

Microsoft's Wave structure is RIFF Header which defines the data inside which is WAVE.
Microsoft's WAV structure is RIFF Header which defines the data inside which is WAVE, then the media player expects a "fmt " chunk and a "data" chunk. Nintendo's format uses a CWAV header (no need for a general structure for media, only wave), which points to an INFO struct (the equivalent to fmt) and a DATA struct (the equivalent to data).
