Halo 2 audio extraction

Hey guys,

From what I've been able to gather, Halo 2's ADIs sound extraction is inferior to that of Halo 1's HMT. You see when I've extracted batch audio(primarily from the music), there are many seperate loops within the main loop folder. See picture below for reference...

Each file in there is a different tempo, a different part of a song that when randomized make the song longer. However, it seems ADI has discarded this feature and any audio you extract from the Halo 2 map files is (I think) by default the first one on the hidden list. The list is not shown in ADI, therefore I can't select additional sections of the song, which unfortunately leads to a very stripped down song. See pic below for ref...

I'll be upfront, I'm no coder, so I don't understand how this all works. But I'm going to pose this question to all of you who do:

Is it possible to update ADI to support the feature that HMT has for sound?
OR
Is it possible to update HMT to support Halo 2 map files?
AND
Can someone do it?

Yes, TSF injected Halo 1 sounds from the level 343 Guilty Spark into a Beaver Creek mod that he made. I don't understand sound injection in ADI either, the only time I attempted it, the sound came out as blank.

This isn't injection, though, this is extraction.

Maybe Halo 2 doesn't use sounds the same way.

Please read his post carefully. He wants to know about a program that can correctly extract the halo 2 sounds. He says how the sounds work in his post =P

Please don't talk back to Tural. I mean no flame but he'd own you. I'm certain that he read it correctly and he's just offering his advise as to why it might now be possible yet or why it hasn't been done yet.
