The information to the right of the 16kHz mark looks nearly identical (not always though) on most songs as the previous information (10-16kHz), is this some method of mixing the changes of those frequencies onto one channel into a mono stream?
EDIT: Or is it part of the way Nintendo makes things pseudo-5.1?
Or are there other things going on here..?

EDIT: Also the DATAUMD.CPK contains a line reading "(c)CRIITOC which has the UTF Header but then this "CpkItocInfo FilesL FilesH DataL DataH" with another UTF header. Er... it appears to contain multiple of these sets.

"Heyo folks. Need some help here.
So, I got the PCK that contains the music of this game. Once you extract it, you get WAV files, but upon inspection in a hex editor, it has an RIFX header. I did some looking around, and, apparently, you need ww2ogg to fix the header, and revorb to convert it, if wanted.
However, ww2ogg doesn't seem to like the WAV's created. I've been looking for a bit to get the game's music into working form. Anyone willing to help?"
I assumed the most likely people to at least have a clue, would be here.

There is a program to rip instruments, and Glover is supported. Similarly, a program exists to rip MIDI's from some N64 games, but Glover is not one of them. I could probably figure something out if I knew where the music was in RAM or ROM. any ideas?
Extracted, I get CAUD and CSMP files, as well as one ATBL and a few DGRP. ATBL is system-related, and DGRP probably is as well. The names are just 0_ and 1_ followed by lots of hexadecimal.
Does anyone happen to know anything about CSMP and CAUD? Is one or both sound effects instead of stream? The CAUD files have text in them like samus_land_metal_heavy that appear to describe sound effects, but seem awfully small to be any kind of audio. Then again, I know next to nothing about SFX. The CSMP files don't give me any indication what they're for.
Not much hope of ever getting usable audio out of them, but I'd like to know more.

Someone really needs to update this software to support more video game music format files.
I have looked in Z2Sound.baa.bstn with hex editor and there are some file system. Perhaps, this is the name of sound effects (groups of simple sounds).
Game files should have info about sound effects and sounds of which they consist. I'm hoping to link that file system to the extracted sounds. Any ideas?
Is it possible? Please help me~ :)
