I can't find any documentation on what file types are supported when loading SoundEffects using the ContentManager. Could someone enlighten me, or point me to the appropriate documentation?

I'd be happy to write the documentation on this feature, if someone advises me of where it should go, and perhaps a good starting point for where to get the information.

Out-of-box Toolkit.Audio supports 2 types of effects:

  1. SoundStream-based effects - from this code I see that supported formats are xwma and wave.
  2. WaveBank-based - they are xna-like sound banks (xwb) created by the XACT tool.

Support for more formats can be added by extending the AudioContentReader class and should be fairly easy for anything that is supported by XAudio2.

Original implementation was done by @dfkeenan - many thanks to him for a nice feature!
