File extension xm seems to be mainly used for a special audio format from FastTracker 2. The program is no longer developed, but the format is still supported by many current MOD players.
The xm file represents audio stored in 8 / 16-bits, mono sound format. It uses MIDI data and sound samples to compose songs. It is similar to a s3m or .MOD file, but is saved in the Fasttracker format.
MIME types:
audio/x-mod
