What is a .AMS file?

An AMS file is a type of computer file used for storing music. It is called an Adobe Monitor Setup File, but it's more commonly associated with music creation in a program called Velvet Studio. Velvet Studio is a software that was made for older computers using MS-DOS and also for Windows computers. People use it to make music tracks by putting together different sounds.

The AMS file contains a music piece that someone has created in Velvet Studio. Inside this file, there are two main things: audio samples and instruments. Audio samples are stored in files ending in .ASE, and they are basically recorded sounds or pieces of music. Instruments, stored in files ending in .AIS, are used to play these audio samples in different ways to create music.

If you have an AMS file and you want to open it to listen to the music or edit the song, there are a few programs you can use. One of them is Vitamin/CAIG ZXTune, which is available for different platforms including Android. Another program is Velvet Development Velvet Studio itself, which is the original software used to create AMS files. Lastly, OpenMPT is another option for opening these files, especially if you're interested in modifying the music track.

In summary, AMS files are all about music creation and editing, and you can open them with specific programs designed for music production and playback.
