About SSB files

An .SSB file most commonly functions as an instrument sound bank for SwarShala Indian music software, but the extension is highly fragmented. Depending on the authoring environment, it can also act as an encrypted Kaspersky antivirus quarantine file, a Super Smash Bros game audio bank, or an Altium PCB bottom soldermask layer.

Because .SSB represents several completely different proprietary formats, generic online converters inevitably fail to process it. A SwarShala instrument file contains closed-source audio mapping data that requires a paid software license to edit or export. A Kaspersky .SSB file is intentionally locked down to prevent malware execution. You cannot directly convert these files to standard formats like WAV, MP3, or PDF without running the original, highly specific authoring software. Our system analyzes the file's binary signature. If our analysis detects that your file is a StockSubmitter backup, it will recognize it as a standard ZIP container, allowing you to extract the internal data immediately.

Convert.Guru analyzes your SSB file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted X3DB, RBN and BTS files.
