- I'm aware of those two, but l was hoping someone had uploaded the full set. I suppose not, though, so I guess I'll have to try finding both N64SoundTool and a copy of the Expansion Kit.

- Is there no way to use metadata tags for WAV loop points? It's not LOOPSTART/LOOPLENGTH, not start_cue/end_cue... According to a GitHub issue that was closed, only OGG uses metadata and WAV uses something smpl? I've hit my ceiling for patience to find yet another tool, so I guess I won't be making a lossless WAV pack.
Besides, this is only the streamed course music. The stereo menu music is still sequenced and l'm no good with sequenced formats, so a properly full rip was already outside my realm.
Oh yeah, and the two WAVs that have been previously shared are incorrect. Rainbow Road is playing at a slightly too high sample rate and Japon has its channels backwards.

- If you can't find a way to add smpl (I assume you're trying to get it working with vgmstream?), it might be easier to make a flac and just set the metadata on that as you would with ogg, vgmstream will try to play a .flac (or .lflac) if built with ffmpeg, I think.

- I didn't know l could do that with FLAC, but l've already done the whole thing in level 8 OGG. I don't have the ear to notice a difference with OGG, anyway. I still feel it's worth sharing around, though, particularly the correct sample rates. So, I hope it's alright if l link to the crummy, but not as bad as it used to be (maybe) MediaFire.
F-Zero X Expansion Kit OGG
F-Zero X Expansion Kit (not mixed)
I found the sample rates by multiplying 32000 by the Key value listed in the N64SoundTool. As for the channels, the base game songs had the first track on the left with second on the right... Meanwhile, the Expansion exclusive songs had the first track on the right with second on the left.
Also, the EAD song is from the Expansion exclusive reward for beating everything on Master class, where Mr. EAD does a little dance.

- Very cool, thanks!
In case you might find it useful, a few of the tracks (Rainbow Road, Japon, Rendezvous of Ghost) were released on Nintendo Sound Selection vol. 2, though I don't know if it's full CD quality. There's an ALAC rip on archive.org that is identical (except for track boundaries) to my own rip from the physical disc.

- These are the highest quality versions of Big Foot, Regeneration and Rollercoaster that I've heard. I may have to yeet the .logg format in favour of max bitrate mp3, but other than that it's very cool, thank you!

- Cool I can finally have Expansion Kit music looping forever on my phone. Thanks a lot for these! I pop in here every now and then hoping someone will bring up how the Yoshi's Story USF set has been unplayable for a while but I'm starting to think it's just me. No one else have any problems with it?
And what's with the Mario 64 rerip? My phone struggles to play it so I had to go back to the old rip.

- McStoat, I suppose that's an issue with the phone version of whatever codec you're playing the songs with. I'm on PC and Yoshi's Story has always worked for me, and l got mine from here around 2013 (or was it 2016?). As for SM64, that also seems to work as of right now, but l know major first-party games had playback issues for a long while due to some weird coding differences from other games. They either played slow or stopped after a certain amount of time. I'm giving a song a thorough listening to, so l'll hear if that's still the case.

- Turns out it plays just fine on PC with 64th Note. I don't know why I just assumed everything was using the same plugin. So I guess the issue is with LazyUSF2 and whatever Highly Complete are? Ah well, thanks for taking the time to check, I'd still be suffering without Yoshi's Story otherwise.

- Nope, the rerips were broken by a bug I introduced about three weeks ago. They're fixed now.
