Somehow those 2 kss track entries became mixed up, kss track 98 should be kss track 97 and 100 should be 99. Interesting find with 53 Triumphal Arch 5 channel version however! Is it just me or is the main melody synth a bit nicer in the 5 channel version?

I can rip all kss entries in the file for you, maybe there's some more magical stuff hidden in there. :D

Ok next try, this time might be the final version.

- Warning is fixed
- Body Snatchers is fixed
- Added Triumphal Arch 5ch version
- Fixed Harry's retrospection, wrong track as well
- Compared with the m3u in joshw version, everything should be fine now

@Grauw, I did md5 on tracks that are duplicate (or at least sound the same on a first hearing), not the same at all. Wonder what is different?

Duplicates besides Triumphal Arch:
Case closed: KSS track 136 and 109.
Master Snatcher: KSS track 131 and 100.

VGM files attached in a seperate files.

Yeah definitely! Also the “pow” effect has a lot more reverb in this version.

Could you give it a separate track number? Two nitpicky additional remarks, which are just about what I would do: since it’s not used in the game, I would put it next to the unused ones. And, lowercase n :oops: (as I said, nitpicky).

Oh, well found, missed that one :).

I’ll check them out more closely tomorrow, but didn’t hear any differences between 131 and 100 yesterday.

Generic thank you for making this pack :) the KSS set didn't work in foo_gep, along with other KSS files.

The difference between 131 and 131-2 is a minor timing difference, just due to rounding to 44100 Hz.

The difference between 136 and 136-2 is that PSG channel B is -3dB softer in the latter (r#9 -1).

Great you dug this deep. :beer:

The KSS file doesn't contain any other music tracks, they're all in the VGM pack... so I'd say we're ok. I'll fix the the title of the 5ch track 53.

Probably the final version!

Renamed the double 53 and changed some of the version history text. Hope I didn't forget anything in the changing process...

foo_npnez (based on nezplug++) works correctly.

Well, here's another version.

- Thriumphal Arch 5 channel version is actually in the game, after the 4 channel one.
- Added some notes about 5 channel tracks.

I love this. Thanks so much for the post! Would you ever consider posting a pack of the MSX original Snatcher files? I've looked everywhere all over the internet, and all I can find are some lossy rips of old, official Konami releases that are all muddied up with reverb and whatnot. You would be a legend if you uploaded something better!

I have ripped them, but I haven't completed the pack yet. You can listen on http://msxmusic.royalwebhosting.net on the web for now. :)
