ah yes, that was me! Yeah, for making an NSFE, I often look to see if there is an existing playthrough of the game. Most of the time though I just wind up playing through a game anyways. Although this is usually pretty easy to figure out, a runthrough may not show secret / bonus areas, game overs, l...

very cool! found your youtube profile, added you as a friend

Absolutely, grab yourself notsofatso and you're good to go in winamp. I believe there are a couple other players that support NSFE as well. There is the NSFE archive here - http://slickproductions.org/nsfe.php but it hasn't been updated in a while and I've tagged a bunch of stuff since then. You'll ...

I believe there is an error with track 3 of Vs Excitebike (the one with 23 tracks). It is supposed to loop. In notsofatso, it freezes at the end. In other players I've tried it won't freeze, but it'll cut off anyways. To find the track in-game, it is the 'Track Edit' tune, found after selecting the ...

Regarding the Japanese Maniac Mansion from before, there is an in-game sound test. I seem to recall there being some pain in putting it together, not sure if accessing the sound test would help. It took me a couple tries of following these instructions, but it works. :) http://www.gamefaqs.com/conso...

Hmm, sorry don't recognize it!

For those who use notsofatso or rockbox, I tagged an NSFE for Erik the Viking.
It's an ace soundtrack!

That's odd, but that's no big loss. Thanks again for cleaning up the nsf, you're the best!

Adding the sound effect in there was intentional, I was wondering if that was the "jingle" that you were talking about. I'll look into it again soon to see if I can locate it. Oh sure! It should be pretty easy to find if you're playing the translated rom. I think there's likely an inn at ...

sounds perfect to me, thanks!

edit: I just noticed you added an extra track at the end. not sure if including that sfx was intentional or not, but it's not the missing jingle. Otherwise all the track fixes are sounding good.

There seems to be an error with the Kouryuu Densetsu Villgust Gaiden nsf (aka Armed Dragon etc...). In track 1 around 15 seconds in, track 2 around 30 seconds in, and throughout tracks 7, 8 and 9, there are these weird arpeggio effects that aren't supposed to be there. Sounds like they all happen in...

Audin, or "Akumu" recently interviewed Mr. Baldwin: http://www.originalsoundversion.com/?p=5559 After dutycyclegenerator and the #nesdev chat I wasn't sure how much more ground could be covered, but I feel like his history and perspective is captured here very well, and in a way that isn't...

Although I'm guilty of being one of the people who'd likely prefer a mouse and keyboard set-up, I've heard many others wish for an LSDJ equivalent NES tracker. People will be interested, there is no doubt about that! I also have an idea that I think would be pretty awesome for a live play mode. It'd...

Ah, let me take a look-

nsf tracks 2, 8, 17, 18, 20 & 25 all have those long bass notes. like some amiga music, it's a very short sample that creates that sound.

Howdy goto80! :) In addition to the great suggestions from tepple's list, you may be interested in The Immortal by Rob Hubbard. It's the only classic NES soundtrack I know of that uses a tiny looped sample to create a sustaining melodic pitch. It creates a deep saw or pulse-like sounding bass line. ...
