This format was tied to the original line of Creative Labs&#8217; Sound Blaster audio cards, so much so that the format actually stored the <a href=\"http:\/\/multimedia.cx\/eggs\/sound-blaster-frequency-redux\/\">Sound Blaster DAC frequency divisor<\/a> for PCM data. VOC files originally stored PCM or any of the custom ADPCM formats that SB hardware apparently supported, including a 2.6-bit format. Details of these custom formats are unknown.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Remember
