It is called SoundConverter or Madsound Converter 2.1( follow the instructions in the README) and is found in a large package of tools and utilities called MadMod-X. The stadium music is found in "data0\SOUNDDAT.DAT" of the installed Madden 08 folder. The music files are divided like this...

405 - Intro music
421 - end of 1st quarter music
417 - end of 2nd quarter music
420 - end of 3rd quarter music
416 - end of game music
315 - 404 random music ...including after TD's...approx 89 songs ( I just took 5 of my favorite songs/stadium sounds and put them ...one each... into groups of 18')

Are you sure that 315-404 are completely random? or are they separated into more categories like 1st down, touch down etc.? also how long do the songs play in game?

I have a problem. Some of the audio clips wont convert to ASF.. Why does this happen? I got one to work but the other two I wanted to add won't convert. It will say conversion completed but no file appears in the folder. Also how do I select multiple files in DFR? or do I have to import one by one!?

1.What type of audio clips are you trying to convert to ASF? Look at the properties of the file that converted and make sure the other two are the same. It is best to import the same type file as the SoundConverter is extracting. Here are the properties...

2. To select multiple files in DFR... (i.e 315-404)
A. Click on file 315...it will highlight.
