Essence Software is proud to announce the availability of MADPlug 2.0 for
REALbasic 2.1!

MADPlug 2.0 provides a higher level control over the MADLibrary engine, and
also incorporates all the file format translator plugins into the final app
(rather than automatically having the translators installed into the System
folder by the plugin.) MADPlug 2.0 is also ready for Carbon, so once the
IDE for Carbon begins to work a bit better, MADPlug should too.

What’s more, it’s still free!
