--- Protracker sample compression / decompression Get the number of sample bytes to process. Call this SamplesLeft. Set Delta counter to 0. DO Get a byte from the buffer. Store the byte in Temp. Subtract the Delta counter from the byte. Store it in the buffer. Move the Temp byte into the Delta Counter Decrement SamplesLeft. WHILE(SamplesLeft <> 0) The technique for conversion back to the raw data is: Get the number of sample bytes to process. Call this SamplesLeft. Set Delta counter to 0. DO Get a byte from the buffer. Add onto the byte the Delta Counter. Store the byte in Delta Counter. Store the byte in Temp. Decrement SamplesLeft. WHILE(SamplesLeft <> 0)
