I have a bunch of *.ay files having some metadata (artist, title and "misc"). How can I convert them to *.flac preserving that metadata?

There are a lot of useful AY-tools with source code on http://bulba.untergrund.net/progr_e.htm:

  • AY-files splitter – parses metadata from AY and saves it to simple INI file
  • AY to WAV converter

You can try to build them for Linux with Free Pascal. Then write script that pass metadata and wave to some wav-to-flac converter (e.g. ffmpeg).

Also you can make own tool with "YMEngine with SDL" library.
