What is a .ULT file?

An ULT file is a type of audio file specifically designed for use with UltraTracker, a program that was popular on MS-DOS systems for creating music. This file format is known as an UltraTracker Module. It is essentially a digital music file that contains all the necessary information to synthesize music. This includes the various tracks that make up the song, the notes on each track, how long each note should be played, and other important properties that define how the song sounds.

To open an ULT file, you can use several different programs available on various platforms. One of the most versatile and widely used programs is the VideoLAN VLC media player, which is available for both desktop and mobile devices, including iOS and Android. VLC is known for its ability to handle a wide range of audio and video formats, and it can easily manage ULT files.

Another option for desktop users is Schism Tracker, which is specifically designed for creating and editing tracker music, including ULT files. MikMod is also a popular choice for playing these files, and it's available on multiple platforms. For those interested in exploring or converting ULT files, Vitamin/CAIG ZXTune offers a solution, and it supports a variety of old-school music formats.

For Windows users, Nullsoft Winamp and OpenMPT are additional options. Winamp is a well-known media player that supports a wide range of audio formats, including ULT files, while OpenMPT is geared towards musicians looking to create or modify tracker music.

On the mobile front, aside from VLC for iOS and Android, Vitamin/CAIG ZXTune is also available for these platforms, providing a way to enjoy ULT files on the go.

It's worth noting that CocoModX, another program that could open ULT files, has been discontinued and might not be available for newer operating systems.

In summary, if you have an ULT file that you want to open or listen to, there are several options available across different platforms, from desktop to mobile. VLC media player is a great all-around choice, while Schism Tracker and OpenMPT offer more specialized tools for those interested in creating or editing tracker music.
