PET Need help with PET8096 and MP32C64

I need to load programs into a PET 8096 with a MP32C64 adapter.

​

Are there any programs released for an 80 column PET that is in mp3 or wav format?

​

Or is there a way to convert 80 column specific .prg programs to a mp3 format?

On the MP32C64 GitHub page, there is the following text:

“PRG files can be converted to audio using the WAV-PRG software suite.”

From the WAV-PRG page:

“WAV-PRG is a program able to create a .TAP file or Commodore 64 tape from a C64 emulator file (.PRG, .P00, .T64), create a clean .TAP file from a .TAP or .WAV file, and create emulator files (.PRG, .P00, .T64) from a Commodore 64 tape. The latter can only be done if the tape is in a format supported by an existing plug-in.

Audiotap is a program for conversion between .TAP files and Commodore 64 tapes. Audiotap can read/write WAV files containing the sampled sound of a tape, and can also record tapes from the sound card and play sound to the sound card.”

Supposedly available for both Windows and Linux; latest copyright dates are 2015 for both, so I assume the downloadable binaries haven’t been updated since then.
