@starly396 Unfortunately the most likely low quality audio from a gamerip will still trump the vinyl since it's not a complete soundtrack. "The Sonic Mania LP features 16 new tracks selected by composer Tee Lopes" -from data discs' site.

@!!!!! Ah, that's a shame! (Nice to see you here)

EDIT: I listened to YouTube snippets that have been uploaded, and the quality isn't fantastic. I wonder if the PC version will improve anything...

If it's vorbis, I highly doubt that would be the case.

Uh oh, filesize for all three console versions is ~300 MB.
They might have opted for an FM Synth, instead of streamed tracks.

Definitely gonna be waiting for the PC version. There's no Switch exploit on the latest firmware yet, and you need to be updated to access the eShop. Sonic Mania is digital only, so it doesn't work in our favor.

@bxaimc I do expect horribly low quality vorbis like Sonic CD, I meant it would trump the vinyl due to it being more complete. The 16 track limit is less then half the music in the game. Fingers crossed for a complete CD/flac digital OST.

@Knurek Songs have FM synths mixed in with sampled instruments to give a retro 90s vibe but its definitely streamed. Filesizes don't bode well in terms of asset quality. (PS4 = 199MB, X1 = 108MB and Switch = 186MB) I'm sure the FMVs like the game's opening, ending for each characters take a large chunk if not most of that space.

Also lol the people vouching for a vinyl release of a soundtrack. Bleh.

They can't possibly not also release a regular CD.

A CD would be perfect. And maybe the tracks would even be long enough to add loop points.
