Brandish 2: The Planet Buster Renewal

1995 CD release of Brandish 2 for PC9801 /
PC9821. The soundtrack was reworked for an
updated version of Falcom's sound driver, but
is still largely identical to the 1993 original
aside from RSS additions to some tracks and
one instrument change in track 15

Also included are 3 "hidden" tracks from
Brandish 2, included in the game files but
never used. These songs were not present in the
Renewal version, but I logged them separately
and included them here for completion's sake

The SSG balance has been adjusted down about
-2.2db from the original logs. This value was
taken from MaliceX's Grounseed pack, which very
closely matches hardware recordings on the -86
board. Still, the SSG here is much louder than
that of the official 1993 CD release (maybe
recorded with an aftermarket card? Game may
have been released pre-86)

Hand fixes and alterations:
Track 1 I cleaned up a few squeaks caused by
delay channels changing patches during release
sequences (Ch#2 @ ~2:15, Ch#4 @ ~4:07)
Track 17 has a glitch where the RSS only plays
the first time through. This was automatically
fixed when looped, and a missing crash was
placed by hand
Track 36 has a glitch where Ch#5/6 get quieter
every time it loops. This was fixed in the same
manner as track 17

I "neatened up" the English tags a bit by
turning all-caps into title case and adding a
bit more spacing. The Japanese tags kept their
original spelling.
