What is an XSC file?

XSC files mostly belong to Transcribe!.

An XSC file does not refer to one single format. It is used by several programs for different purposes, with each version containing project or configuration data specific to its application.

For example:

  • Transcribe! audio project - This file holds music transcription data such as note timing and annotations. It is used by the Transcribe! software from Seventh String. For more details, visit Seventh String.
  • Cross-section file - This version saves data for technical cross-sectional diagrams and analysis. More information is available at Spectraplot.
  • Safety Configuration file - An XML-based file that stores safety settings used in industrial automation. It is common in Siemens TIA Portal and also appears as an XML-based file for Schneider Electric’s systems in CODESYS. Learn more at Siemens TIA Portal.
  • Xbox 360 cheat file - This type is designed for game modification, acting as a script or cheat file compiled with the Xtended Script Compiler from XeClutch. Details can be found at XSC Script Compiler.
  • XScheduler playlist file - Used to save scheduling or playlist information in the XScheduler application. Visit XScheduler for further info.

FilExt.com tip: Each version of an XSC file is meant to be opened and edited with its original software, as the content and structure (often XML-based or binary) vary greatly.

How to open XSC files
