uFMOD (or μFMOD) is a freeware audio player library written in x86 assembly language. It is used to load and play audio files in XM format.

In the library name, the lowercase u letter is the micro symbol μ ^[2]

The uFMOD source code can be compiled using FASM.^[3]

Audio libraries supported
Operating System	Audio Libraries
Microsoft Windows	WinMM, DirectSound, OpenAL
Linux	OSS, ALSA, OpenAL
FreeBSD	OSS
KolibriOS	Infinity Sound Audio Library

The uFMOD library was ported to several programming languages and development environments:

C#
Visual Basic
Dev-C++
PureBasic^[4]
FreeBASIC
BlitzMax
Emergence BASIC
Delphi^[5]
Free Pascal^[6]
Tcl/Tk

The AOCRYPT cryptographic engine uses uFMOD to ensure a specific executable file size.^[7] The patcher dUP2^[8] uses uFMOD to play background music.
