Xbox used it's own WAV file format to encode data using ADPCM. This format is often called Xbox ADPCM.

Standard IMA ADPCM WAV files would use format code 0x0011, whereas Xbox ADPCM files use format-code 0x0069.

There are always 1 (Mono) or 2 (Stereo) channels[citation needed].

All Xbox ADPCM files seem to store 64 ADPCM input nibbles per block. This value is also stored in the 'fmt ' extra-data which is always 2 bytes, containing the Bytes 0x40, 0x00 (64 as unsigned 16-bit integer). Because of that, all Xbox ADPCM files will have a block alignment of 36 (Mono) or 72 (Stereo) Bytes. As the decoder-setup in every block contains a predictor for each channel, there will be 65 samples / channel output per block (130:36 compression ratio = 72.3% compressed).

Aside from what was mentioned, there are no known differences to IMA ADPCM. This is probably because the APU VP will decode ADPCM in hardware. Microsoft probably had little control over the APU ADPCM implementation and had to stay compatible to standard ADPCM. Players supporting IMA ADPCM also support Xbox ADPCM. However, they might reject files due to the different format-code.

Block format

Same as IMA ADPCM

In the following tables, the following notation is used:

  • All indices start at 0
  • W# denotes a 32-bit word
  • B# denotes a Byte (8-bit)
  • P denotes the ADPCM predictor for the block
  • SI denotes the Step-Index for the block
  • S# denotes a sample
  • Background color denotes the channel:
    • Blue: Left = Right
    • White: Left
    • Red: Right
