Main Features

YExtractor Pro is the definitive solution for extracting and transforming Yamaha expansion packs. Stop manually creating samples for other keyboards when you already have PPF files ready! With software like ESC, you can open exported SFZ files and save them to other formats such as SF2, NKI, etc.

Enterprise-Grade Performance in Under 400KB
Built on robust .NET Framework architecture, YExtractor Pro delivers professional-grade extraction capabilities in an exceptionally compact, standalone executable. No external dependencies, no bloated libraries, just pure, optimized code engineered for maximum efficiency and reliability.

Compatibility: WAV/AIFF/SFZ extraction works with user-created PPF files. Yamaha-created PPF files are protected and not supported. PPI files support extraction of voice configurations (VCE/MIDI settings) but not audio waveforms.

  • User-Created PPF Extraction

    Extract complete audio content from PPF files created with Expansion Manager and convert to WAV, AIFF or SFZ formats.

  • Professional SFZ Generation (PPF)

    Generate complete SFZ instruments from PPF files with ADSR envelopes, velocity layers, loop points and key ranges. Compatible with Extreme Sample Converter, sforzando, Kontakt, ARIA Engine and more.

  • Intelligent Voice Scanner (PPF)

    Automatically detects and processes complete instruments from PPF files with all samples. Preserves metadata, loop points and more embedded information.

  • FastScan Preview (PPF & PPI)

    Instant preview of pack contents before extracting. Organized by categories: Voices, Styles, Audio, MIDI, Multi Pads and more.

  • Perfect Audio Conversion (PPF)

    PPF to WAV/AIFF conversion from PPF files without quality loss. Supports mono and stereo files.

  • PPI Multi-PACK Processing

    Extracts all packs from PPI files automatically. Extract voice configurations, styles, MIDI files and other content (excludes audio waveforms).

Use Cases

  • Recover Your Samples: Extract waveforms from your PPF files with complete metadata including loop points, root notes, and key limits preserved
  • Cross-Brand Compatibility: Export to SFZ and convert to SF2 format to use your Yamaha sounds on other brands like Medeli, Korg, Roland, etc.
  • Multi-Format Distribution: Share your expansions in multiple formats like NKI using tools like Extreme Sample Converter for maximum compatibility
  • Professional Services: Use as a professional tool to offer conversion services to clients who need format transformations
  • Sound Design: Extract individual layers and samples to process with external plugins and create custom instruments
  • Archive & Preservation: Create backups of your expansion packs in universal formats for long-term preservation

Supported Content Types

From PPF files (user-created): Complete audio extraction including waveforms, voices, styles with full audio samples.
