UnkrawerterGBA is a program with a command line interface capable to rip music as .s3m or .xm modules from Game Boy Advance roms.
It only works with game that were developed using the
Krawall sound engine. It is actually named after Kraweter, the core program of Krawall that handles the module files conversion.
You can find a list of games that used Krawall here:

Composing
UnkrawerterGBA can be used to rip samples from Game Boy Advance games.
After using UnkrawerterGBA, you will get a bunch of .s3m or .xm module files. These are the songs of the game, see the
s3xmodit (format) page for a list of tools you can use to play them.
To obtain all the game's samples as .wav files, you can use one of these tools:
-
xmodits: an application to easily extract the samples of modules, just drag and drop your .s3m/.xm files. Use "Add Folder" to extract samples from multiple modules at once.
-
MODPlug Tracker: you will have to extract the samples from each module one by one. Go to the sample tab and click on the small arrow on the right side of the save button to export all the samples of the current module.
- UnkrawerterGBA: use the command line option -e to extract all samples from the ROM as .wav files along with the .s3m/.xm modules. It's clearly the fastest option but contrary to xmodits and OpenMPT, it won't apply loop points on the .wav files!
Links for further development
The development of UnkrawerterGBA is still active, you can go to their
GitHub repository to join or sponsor the project.
