What happens is, you know how track 4 starts of as a guitar, and then changes to some kind of 'organ' sound? Well, when it loops, the instrumentation remains as an organ, and doesn't change to a guitar. So, if you want a perfect version, what you should do is, if possible, redo track 4 of Master Battle, but have them all as that same organ sound.
There's pretty much the same thing with Sector Z. The first time, you hear some kind of trumpet instrument playing the main melody, but halfway is switches to more of a horn/trombone sound... but never goes back to the trumpet sound.
Also, I don't get exactly how they fit together... do the parts just fit one after the other, for each channel, e.g. would Channel 4 Part 2 be immediately after Channel 4 Part 1, i.e.
C4P1|C4P2 etc?
So, would it go something like this:
C1P1|C1P2
C2P1|C2P2|C2P3
C3P1|C3P2
C4P1|C4P2|C4P3|C4P4|C4P5
Etc?
i just split everything that i found in the sequence, i even splitted some notes from each other while they are meant to be in the same pattern, in the same channel
i have no idea how the menu theme works
no notes = no pattern = no wave file

But do all the Part 1s of each channel start at the same time, or is there a channel that doesn't play until a few seconds?
This is how I did it originally:
C1P1|
C2P1|
C3P1|C3P2
C4P1|C4P2|C4P3|----|C4P5
----|C5P2
C6P1
C7P1|C7P2|----|C7P4|C7P5
EDIT: After listening to the original music, it seems each part should have a length of 8 bars. The tempo is 75 bpm, which means the length of each part should be precisely 12.48 seconds (75 beats per minute = 3.12 seconds per measure)
EDIT 500: No, that doesn't work. The first few channels' parts seemed to work at 12.48 seconds, but Channel 4's Part 1 has about 33 seconds between each time it plays.... and then Channel 4 Part 2 seems to not play after Channel 4 Part 1, but over the top.
Firstly, there's the 12.48 seconds, where you've got them at 22.41 seconds, you you've got 10 seconds of unnecessary silence at the end of each part, which is confusing. Is there a way of extracting the entire of each channel as one WAV instead of in parts, and for the exact length that each one loops? In otherwords, a single WAV for Channel 1, with the exact length of 12.48 seconds, etc?
So all I can think of is that each part is a different length, and does not always a have a length of 22.41 seconds?
DAMN YOU HIROKAZU ANDO!

Anyway, my suggestion is to listen to the songs on original hardware where possible, as it could be an emulator issue, instead of a song issue. I know I'm not terribly helpful there, but hopefully you do find it useful. Mouser X over and out.
''i just split everything that i found in the sequence'
''pattern is supposed too be part of cannel 7 part 5''
see the wave files as a multi track
