Become a GTA DJ with This Music Program

San Andreas Radio is a cool and lightweight gaming utility program for the popular action game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. It allows you to create your own CD playlists from songs, commercials, station idents, and small audio clips of DJ chatter. You can create a playlist as if it were taken from the game—including randomized songs, chatter, commercials, and such.

Welcome to San Andreas

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is an action-adventure game developed by Rockstar North and published by Rockstar Games. Released in 2004, it was the seventh title in the Grand Theft Auto series and showcased third-person perspective gameplay in an open-world environment. The game is set in the fictional U.S. state of San Andreas, which consists of three metropolitan cities: Los Santos, San Fierro, and Las Venturas. Its single-player story campaign follows Carl "CJ" Johnson, an ex-gangster who returns home to Los Santos after his mother's murder. Carl finds his old friends and family in disarray, and over the course of the game, he attempts to re-establish his old gang, clashes with corrupt cops, and gradually unravels the truth behind his mother's murder. It had been praised for its music, story, and gameplay, and had been the best-selling video game of 2004, as well as one of the best-selling video games of all time. Like the other GTA games, one of GTA: SA’s main gameplay highlights is the ability to drive all vehicles available in the game and to actually listen to its in-game radio while you’re inside the car. This inspired several programs and mods that allowed you to make your own customized radio playlist for the game.

Take The Tunes With You

San Andreas Radio follows the same concept, but instead of just making your own playlist for you to listen to while you play the game, it also lets you rip the various radio audio for you to place in CDs or other devices for your own use. Basically, San Andreas Radio lets you take the in-game radio—and essentially, the game’s nostalgia—with you. You’ll need the game itself to be able to use this utility program, but it’s pretty easy to use once you boot it up. GTA: SA uses a new technique for its in-game radio stations, wherein it splits each station into about 150 audio clips that are strung together randomly according to some rules. There are audio clips of station idents, announcements about in-game events (e.g. weather, travel), general chatter, phone-ins, commercials, and songs. San Andreas Radio allows you to easily string all of these together with its user-friendly interface. Just download and install this program, run your copy of GTA: SA on your computer, then run San Andreas Radio. You’ll see a window split into two, which will allow you to move songs the different radio stations around on and off the playlist you’re making. Once you’re done, you can save it for later or you can export it as a WAV file for burning to a CD.

Nostalgia in Your Radio

San Andreas Radio is a handy little tool to access GTA: SA’s radio sounds and songs. This is a great program for when you feel like reminiscent the soundtrack and would like to make your own playlist with it. There are some limitations with this utility but it’s an overall nice app to have for fans of the game.
