With game extractor you can only extract one file thou... And there's more in there, like 4.
No idea about the headers thou, I've tried using some wav repair header thingie, didn't work thou. :/

So with this we can add custom gh3 songs to the Wii?

This is awesome. I can't wait. I've gotta get a modchip for my Wii now.
After reading some of the posts on there, it seems that you may not need a modchip. Can someone clarify?

I read about this too and it gave me hope for Wii customs, but is anyone even working on this?

Here is the source code for those interested: http://git.infradead.org/?p=users/segher/wii.git

Edit: Does someone have a tutorial on how to get this working. I navigated to my Wii Tools folder using command prompt, but I don't know how to open WiiED or WiiSO in command prompt. All I can do is type in the exe name and it says the following:

Those are some comments after quickly looking at the files.

The QB files are almost the same as PS2 and PC. Everything is big endian, but the QBs for the songs also do have the "empty" section at the start of it. My tool to generate QB files should be very easy to adapt to it. So, not a big trouble with them.

The problem could exist with the sound files. Here's a little tool to get the FSB files for every DAT/WAD.

After that, you can extract them with FSBExt.

The problem is that the WAV files aren't WAV files. I've tried some RAW settings in Audacity but none of it worked.

They probably use a Wii-specific codec or are encrypted (there are some repetitive patterns, but anyway I'm not too good with audio files so I don't know).

I've tried some different formats but I either get nothing at all or alot of hissing noise and in the background (very low) the "real" sound.

Btw, in the specification of FSB3 files (here) they talk about "Other sound information". I don't know if these files follows those specifications byte by byte but any chance we can get some information from there?
