.F3R File Extension

An F3R file is a block-format audio module created by Farandole Composer, a music tracker used to create video game and demo music. It contains synthesized music. F3R files are similar to .F2R files, though saved in a different format.

Farandole Composer was released in 1994 and available for MS-DOS. It allowed users to create 16-channel synthesized music.

Typically, Composer users saved the audio modules they created as .FAR files. However, some Composer modules were instead saved in the F3R or F2R formats.

You can open an F3R file with FMJ-Software Awave Studio (Windows) or Farandole Composer. Because Composer was available only for DOS, you may have to run it in a DOS emulator, such as DOSBox (multiplatform).

You can use FMJ-Software Awave Studio (Windows) to convert F3R files to other audio formats, such as:

• .AAC - Advanced Audio Coding
• .AIFF - Audio Interchange File Format
• .FLAC - Free Lossless Audio Codec
• .M4A - MPEG-4 Audio
• .MP3 - MP3 Audio
• .OGG - Ogg Vorbis Audio
• .OPUS - Opus Audio
• .SND - Sound File
• .WAV - WAVE Audio
• .WMA - Windows Media Audio

To do so, right-click the waveform associated with your F2R file and select Save selected waveform as....
