Proper Battletoads arcade rip? by dogman91x at 11:10 AM EST on February 24, 2015
Is there a good rip of this soundtrack out there? All I can find are some pretty low quality MP3 files. The music is by Dave Wise and sounds *just* as good as his work on the Donkey Kong Country series IMO; released the same year.
This arcade version is also known by some as "Super Battletoads"
By the way, what's the sample rate of the PCM files? I'm logging WAV files for the soundtrack manually through MAME and I'm wondering if using the exact sample rate would be more accurate to the source, rather than using the mame.ini sound options' default (48khz). It might just be me but it sounds like it's adding treble to the sound that might not have been there.

You can use Bridge M1 to play it straight from the ROM instead of logging it. You can also record while you're listening, but it has to be in real time, unfortunately.
If you want to keep logging though, you could submit it to vgmrips. Your question about sampling rate would probably be best answered at their forum as well.
Just found out about this glorious soundtrack a few days ago, and although BridgeM1 works fine, I'd love to see a proper rip (as BridgeM1 doesn't play the credits or level completed music).
