Game Boy Sound System
Appearance
The Game Boy Sound System, also named GBS, is a file format made to play music made for the Game Boy. Like the Game Boy, four sounds can be played at the same time: two pulse waves, one 4-bit PCM (32 repeating samples in stereo) and one noise (sounds like static).
GBS music files can be ripped and played with special players and Game Boy emulators.
