Disclaimer: This video isn't for April Fools despite the video release date, it's just a tutorial I made so I can help you guys how to make a Terraria Music Pack.

Hello everyone, so as you may have known, the Steam workshop support update has dropped, and mainly I have noticed the new addition of Music Packs, so I decided to make this video to teach you guys how to make your own Music Packs for Terraria! Hope this video helps!

Pack.json template:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ktA_nACk-7tOWSJQOUxYu8io3KHNTon3/view?usp=sharing

Terraria forums guide by Leinfors (music pack section, this is where you refer to for the music ID): https://forums.terraria.org/index.php?threads/the-ultimate-guide-to-content-creation-and-use-for-the-terraria-workshop.100652/#musicpack

Timestamps:
0:00 Intro
0:14 Find the Resource Packs folder
0:39 Make the folder for the resource pack then the content folder
1:05 Make and Setting up the Pack.json file
4:06 Putting an Icon
4:36 Putting your music in the Content
5:02 Rename your song to a music ID
6:10 Load your Resource pack and done!
6:49 Outro

Edit: I wanna say something regarding the possible confusion in the last part:
You don't need to touch the sun in order to let the pack work, you only need it to be enabled from the resource pack menu. The reason I touched the sun is that I replaced the song that plays after the sun is touched, which is mentioned in the video, Music_6 or "Title (Classic)".
If the song that you replaced is played elsewhere, for example, the Desert biome, it should play normally there as long as the pack is enabled.

Edit 2: I just wanna add some stuff that can help possible problems here:
-  For a converter for your audio file I can suggest Online-Convert, specifically the audio converting part of it. Link: https://audio.online-convert.com/
-  If are having the problem where for some reason the volume goes to 0% when using your pack, you can read a solution for it on this forum page right here: https://forums.terraria.org/index.php?threads/music-volume-slider-resets-to-zero-when-changing-biomes-interacting-with-enemies-etc.105572/. 
Otherwise, to explain it from here, the main issue would be the sample rate, 48000 seems to be max.
-  If the pack isn't appearing in the Resource packs menu, please recheck your pack.json file if it's all in lowercase and if there is something wrong inside the file itself.
-  (a comment from a user named Nepeta) if it doesn't work (like "failed to load Music_5"). don't just change the music file .mp3 to .wav in the folder(don't use filename extensions on the music file) use an audio converter tool to change the music file format. (I changed it a bit)
-  In terms of audio file formats the best that works, in general, are .ogg files (in my experience at least).
-  I hope this should help!
