.FTM File Extension

Audio tracker module created with FamiTracker, an audio program used for producing music for Nintendo (NES) systems; includes short audio samples and a series of notes that comprise the melody.

FTM files are saved in a proprietary format that can only be opened and edited with FamiTracker. However, songs created with FamiTracker can be exported to standard .WAV files or .NSF audio files.

NOTE: The name FamiTracker comes from "Famicom," which was the Japanese name for the original Nintendo system.

Family tree created with Family Tree Maker for DOS, an older version of the popular family tree creation program; contains genealogy data that can be viewed as a family tree.

Family Tree Maker for Windows saves family trees as .FTW files.

An FTM file is a template created by MakeMusic Finale, a music notation program. It contains a pre-set layout that a composer can use to quickly create a new musical score. Versions 2012 and earlier save templates as FTM files.

You can open an FTM file with MakeMusic Finale (Windows, Mac). In versions up to 26, you can select File → Open..., navigate to your FTM file, and select Open to open it. In version 27, you must right-click your FTM file, select Open with..., and then manually open the file with Finale. (Or, you can change the file's extension to .mus and open it as you would a .MUS file.)
