- PSF rip requests? by 47iscool at 9:03 AM EDT on May 3, 2015
- Was just wondering if anyone does them. Been wanting a Syphon Filter set but the game must use a custom driver because vgmt can't find anything.
I'm no programmer so its to complicated for me. Sorry if this is the wrong place.

I managed to get the sound files, which I think are adx2. When I convert them to wav, they come out fuzzy. Is there a current way to get to come out clean? I read something about an XOR key? I ran guessadx and it said it doesn't appear to be encrypted.

- GC/Wii sequenced music? by 47iscool at 6:05 AM EDT on May 8, 2015
- Has anyone ever thought of a psf-like format for these two systems which have very similar hardware?
I know most GC and Wii games use streamed audio but Mario Sunshine & the two Zelda games use sequenced music.
I know about wwdumpsnd but I can't get any music with it, only sound effects.

- N64 Midi Tool by dkbk64 at 1:18 PM EDT on May 10, 2015
- Lately, I've been creating soundfonts to go with midis extracted using the N64 Midi Tool. However, I find that after converting the sequences from Nintendo's "compact midi" format some notes are either shortened or missing entirely. It is not due to sample release times either as I have made sure they match the values in the N64 Sound Tool.
Anybody know why this is? If so, how can it be corrected?

- Super Smash Bros. 64 Soundfont by dj4uk6cjm at 6:30 PM EDT on May 14, 2015
- Super Smash Bros. 64 Soundfont made by punk with the help of SubDrags new tool, just had to share this here. Awesome stuff!!
The soundfont is automatic once again and pairs up with these midis here. It's best suited to play them using the soundfont in Synthfont as opposed to foobar2000.
For more updates regard to this thread.

- That Bastard File (thp) by RebeccaSugar at 2:26 AM EDT on May 18, 2015
- I'm trying to find the intro/credits files from Gale of Darkness for a complete and final sound version, as such, I have found them...in thp format, that would be great and all except that it suffers from the same problem that the audio files do, it's split up into two different files, that isn't the main problem though, I wish it was, no, the thing is, one has the header and the other has the actual video, I've tried playing them in MPCH and sure, it goes in the 640x480 resolution, nothing shows, the video and audio info is still there.
I honestly don't care about the video, I only want the music from it.
I posted a folder here, hex data didn't work for me so I'm unsure what you could do to help, any will be appreciated.

The only files I really care about are "movie_staffroll" "movie_auto_demo_" and "movie_ending" the first two are the highest priority, if you want to do the rest then knock yourself out.

- N64 Soundbank Tool Release by SubDrag at 3:11 PM EDT on May 21, 2015
- http://goldeneyevault.com/viewfile.php?id=302
N64SoundbankTool quite simply, rips and previews N64 Soundbanks into Soundfonts. It is the merging of the N64 Midi Tool and N64 Sound Tool, and is powered by VGMTran's DLSFile support and Seq64 for the EAD games sequence extraction. It has been requested since the beginning, to rip straight from an N64 soundbank to a soundfont, and this accomplishes the job. The N64 Midi Tool and N64 Sound Tool also received a good amount of updates and restructuring, in order to better support addition of this new N64 Soundbank Tool. The tool can generate DLS soundbanks for games where midis/sequences are not identified yet, but a preview will not be available.
The tool will be a work in progress, like the other tools, so expect more soundfonts and more accurate banks over time. It is open source if you are interested in helping! Collaboration would be very helpful, considering the difficulty in converting N64 data into regular soundfonts, as well as due to the huge multitude of games. It is ini driven, so if another game is supported, if it is not a new format, it can simply be a config change. It uses all three inis, from the midi tool, sound tool, and its own.
Some formats do not have sound envelope parameters available (N64WavePtrTable), so will only have the sound and loop information available. The N64 S1 format does support all of the parameters, except for Tremolo and Vibrato. It may be possible later to add Vibrato, but Tremolo is not in DLS format. The EAD format (Zelda, Mario, Star Fox, etc), is somewhat supported, though some parameters are still unknown or imperfect. The time multiplier parameter, is only applicable to the normal sound format, and is used in some games, where due to likely reverb or game specific pitch changes, it sounds better if the values for attack, release, and decay time are multiplied by a larger value (1 microsecond per unit is default, 0.000001). The expectation is that this is a starting point, and authors can tweak parameters if need be, and name the instruments, etc, but this yields the critical splits, ADSR, pan, and attenutation.
The soundfonts are written in DLS format, though most soundbank tools can convert to SF2 if necessary. The preview uses DirectMusic, and is a totally different way of loading the data; as such, it is less accurate and does not contain as many parameters as the DLS, so should only be used for quick testing. Instead use Synthfont, for example, to play and record the music.
Some games have multiple banks, and midis only work on certain banks. Not all games are fully identified in this respect (such as Mario Party). Jet Force Gemini is unique, and has actually over 127 sounds, forming two LSB banks. Unfortunately, most soundbank + midi players do not support this command, but the soundfont does reflect this accurately.
A big thanks to Punk 7890, who assisted in a significant amount of testing, over and over again, ingame determining of parameters and identification of most of the banks. Thanks to Zoinkity for all his help over the years (specifically here in compression and locations for sound tool and midi tool).
Also of course many thanks to VGMTrans, for open sourcing their code, which allowed ease of use of DLS format, as well as Seq64, for open sourcing, so I could make a minor modification to make it command line ripping of midis (source included), and compiled to a new exe.

- Extracting music from NFS Undercover .BIN files (X360) by carjasssso at 3:45 PM EDT on May 23, 2015
- Hello.
I'm trying to rip the pursuit music from the Xbox 360 versión of Need for Speed: Undercover.
I've tried by using ea_multi_xma tool but all I get is this message:
ea_multi_xma 05SOUND.BIN -o 0
"Unknown flags at 0x0"
Maybe the offset I'm typing isn't correct. But how do I know which is the correct one?
This is the file I'm working with:
05SOUND.BIG
(I hope the file isn't corrupted. It took me 6 hours to download the game ISO)
Could you please help me getting these music files? I've tried to get the raw pursuit music files for about four years with no success. There are some parts that can't be listened to in game, and the official OST reléase doesn't feature the full pursuit score.

- Desperately seeking Dirge of Cerberus <;) by SquareTex at 8:08 AM EDT on May 25, 2015
- Greetings folks. :)
It's been ages since I've posted here, so it wouldn't surprise me if nobody remembers who I am. But about 8 years ago, I had created a set of ADX files for the loopable tracks from Masashi Hamauzu's sountrack for Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII. At the time, the game had yet to ripped, and even then there was a matter of handling its Atrac encoding.
Well, due to clumsiness on my part, I lost my personal collection of 'em. The file restore DID pull back what it thought was ADX files, but in the process they had become too corrupted to play.
So that's why I'm here. Does anyone please still have that unofficial ADX collection? Or better yet, does vgmstream support the official AC3 rip, and where can I get that?
Thanks. Glad to see the ol' community is still alive and kicking. :D
- Super Monkey Ball 1's ADP Files by Cornholio309 at 1:51 PM EDT on May 25, 2015
- Hi everyone. Have a small question here that I can't really seem to find much information about.
Super Monkey Ball 1 stores it's music in .ADP files, and these are playable in VGMStream just fine.
However, they don't seem to loop and fade out right when it reaches the loop point. I assume this is because of how the game handles the ADP files, but I could be wrong.
Does the game store the looping information anywhere on the disc? Would I have to recreate the loop point by hand, or is there an easier way?
I want to be able to make each one of the game's tracks loop twice before fading out if this is by any chance possible.I am aware the Xbox version of Deluxe has the normal main game stage themes in ADX files, but it's missing the minigame themes from 1 if I'm not mistaken.
If I can get any help on looping these files without having to do too much manual labor (hooray for laziness!), I'd appreciate some information.
Thanks!
- Possible rip & fix requests? by BlackGuyRX at 5:13 PM EDT on May 26, 2015
- Hi, there are a bunch of rips I'd like to request across several formats, (NSF, GBS, & HES) as well as some fixes to existing rips, mostly to restore missing music tracks. Would it be worth listing them off, or should I do it myself, even though I have no idea of what I'm doing.
- Call for tags by henke37 at 12:22 AM EDT on May 28, 2015

Part of this task is compiling a list of the tags used and their meaning.
My primary source is defunct and needs to be fetched from the Internet archive, so I trust it even less than normal.
So I am asking you guys, the actual people who use the format, if there are any de-facto standardized tags that the official specs are missing.

The voices are first and the music begins somewhere around 7/8 /minutes.
The voices I'm not worried about, if I can get the correct values I can convert it to flac then use audacity to extract individual tracks.

- So how exactly does Hyrule Field from Ocarina of Time work? by Can of Nothing at 4:29 PM EDT on May 29, 2015
- By now it's no surprise that Hyrule Field has interactive music. It's even been mentioned by Koji Kondo and Mahito Yokota , where he mentions that he did it to prevent the music from getting too repetitive while exploring the vast overworld. He added that there were about 20 (as I'm certain the recent rips could confirm) different sections for the song, too. This is all good, but... how does it all work?
So I know some really basic triggers, like standing around doing nothing is guaranteed to get you into a certain section, and encountering an enemy triggers a section, as well, but I don't know about it much beyond that - and surprisingly enough, I've found little to no information about it whatsoever. Does anyone here happen to know more about this than I do?
EDIT: Not exactly related, but:
"Iwata: So in your head, you're wearing that green outfit. (laughs)
Kondo: Yeah. And that green hat! (laughs) I make the music in that state of mind."
Uhhhh...

- Pokemon Colosseum Soundfont by alimu at 3:40 AM EDT on May 31, 2015
- Hi there!
I'm creating a new thread on this so that more people could check it out.
Here's the Colosseum soundfont v1.0. I will update it frequently with your feedback, and repost the whole soundfont again here.
There are a few issues, mainly the crescendo strings, because I think the hold and decay values are supposed to change with the tempo, and I do not know how to do that. Help on this would be appreciated.
If there are any issues please inform me so that I may check what's wrong. I used PolyPhontics, and have all the project files saved, so small changes will be easy. The instruments have their program numbers in front of their names for your convenience. Some program numbers are assigned to two instruments, which I believe depend on the channel number. I listened to the instruments and gave them names based on the sound produced.
I'll create a .dls file containing all the instruments and their respective program numbers for easier MIDI playback after the problems are fixed.
I would like to thank Nisto for the .wav samples and soneek for the ripped soundfont. I couldn't have done this without you.
Hope this helps!

- Chain Dive .FLD by spectrexcwk at 8:53 PM EDT on June 8, 2015
- Hello,
i'm trying to extract the music from the ps2 title Chain Dive (SCPS-15054). All the game's data appears inside files ending in .FLD.
I haven't found any tools that can do anything with them. Psound was able to find audio, but it was only dialogue and sound effects. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

- Ocarina of Time 3D/Majora's Mask 3D cue points are driving me insane! by robotortoise at 1:00 PM EDT on June 9, 2015
- So, for MONTHS I've been looking for OOT3D and MM3D tracks that are .wavs with loop points.
I've tried to export vgmstream2000 files with cue chunks.
Not cue samples, cue points.
This is not an easy task, apparently.
All I want is a version of the Majora's Mask and Ocarina of Time OSTs that has .wav files with cue points.
I can't use the MM3D streams. I can get them to export as .lwav files, but they have cue SAMPLES, not cue points.
I've tried the MiniUSFs, but none of the rips have an accurate tempo.
I've tried the OOT3D soundtrack and just looping it manually, but it sounds awful and I can't find the proper loop points for some songs. (Like the Great Fairy's fountain themes)
I've tried to look for auto cue finding software, but i can't find anything within my price range.
This is driving me crazy! Does anyone have any ideas?!
I want the OSTs for two Zelda-related TF2 maps that my friends are working on.

1. You can request, just don't do it to the point that the thread becomes saturated with them, once per every two pages should be enough.

3. Anything goes, as long as it's related to Nintendo audio.
4. You don't /have/ to enjoy the music, sometimes that is an impossibility, you have your preferences.

- Tales of Zestiria BNSF / etc by Rotag at 8:46 AM EDT on June 24, 2015
- I'm wondering if it's possible to play the following BNSF files.
I've tried VGMStream, and they work for the BNSFs found in Zestiria's BGM folder, SPSIS22.
The sounds, presumably voices and sounds, are in SPSIS14, which is uploaded in the following link.
https://www.mediafire.com/?14795pburexktox
If anyone's interested, I can upload the SPIS22/BGM folder.
Will try to do the same for Xillia and Xillia 2 eventually. If they have the same BNSF issue, then..well..darn. Still fun to attempt and find info for these games.
I'm also assuming there isn't an easy way to deal with Akiba's Trip 2's .phyre dds files. All sounds are completely ripped, and most/simple 2D assets can be ripped using TextureFinder. Also willing to upload that game's BGM files.
comments -
Voice files are split audio. I learned a lot when I asked about TMNT stuff a long while back, fun stuff.
To be clear : one set of BNSF are playable, another isn't. Is there any way to play the unplayable ones?

- The Wonderful 101 WEM sound effect format by Chaofanatic at 12:32 PM EDT on June 27, 2015
- I've been looking all over for a way to get a hold of these. They're .WEM files stored inside .BNK archives. Extracting the .BNK's wasn't too hard, but the actual .WEM files are apparently different from how they'd normally be and are unable to be converted with ww2ogg.
I've found a XeNTaX thread about it, and I'm able to get the sounds themselves out of the .WEM files, some of them are playable but they have a grinding static noise over them even though you're still able to hear the actual sound effects underneath.
I was told to come here and ask about all of this. I've got a number of .WEM files I extracted right here for those who are interested. I've searched around for a method to do this, but the one I've found isn't working for me and it seems like the .WEM format is constantly changing for each game it's in. I hope someone would be willing to help me with this. Thank you.

- How to Play and Dump BGM in a BRSAR File! by larsenv at 11:54 AM EDT on July 1, 2015
- Hi,
I'm sorry if putting this in the forum wasn't OK, but I was messing around with some tools I found. I found out using Dolphin you could rip music from a BRSAR!!!
This is good for games which doesn't have any BRSTMs but have all of the BGM in the BRSAR itself.
Games like WarioWare: Smooth Moves, Animal Crossing: City Folk, or most WiiWare Games use this technique.
You will need:
A tool like Audacity to trim the music (optional)
BrawlBox (optional)
Dolphin Emulator
These tools
Note: Starting on Step 4, when I tell you to press buttons, I'm talking about the key corresponding to the button that's configured in "Controller Settings" on your keyboard.
1. Optional - Open your BRSAR with the BGM in BrawlBox, and find the track with the music and make note of the filename. You don't have to do this step, but if you don't you will have to look for the BGM you want to dump using this tool.
2. Unpack the dvdroot.zip file you just downloaded. Put the BRSAR(s) with the music in it in the same folder.
3. Open Dolphin Emulator. Go to Config > Paths > DVD Root and hit Browse to find the directory mentioned in Step 2. Make sure there is nothing in the Apploader path below this option.
4. Run viewer.elf. Now hit the HOME Button and on the window that pops up, on Mode, hit the Right key thrice to enter Sound Mode.
5. Hit Down, and then hit A. Hit A to select your BRSAR or before that, hit Up or Down to select the BRSAR you want to use.
6. On the top left corner of your screen, you should see a ">" symbol next to a green square. Use the Left and Right keys to find the BGM track you want to dump. If you followed Step 1, you should select the one you found in the BRSAR.
7. Before you play the track, go into the Movie sidebar on Dolphin and select "Dump Audio". Then hit A to play the track you want to dump.
8. When you want to stop the recording, go back into the Movie sidebar and deselect "Dump Audio".
9. Now find your Dolphin directory and go into the Dump folder, then go into the Audio folder. "dspdump.wav" has your newly recorded track.
10. Optional - Use your audio editing software to edit the audio track to adjust it to how you want it.
11. Enjoy your new music rip!

- Trickstyle OST info? by Yoshinkeru at 5:09 PM EDT on July 8, 2015
- Years back, when the internet itself might have been in its infancy, I remember searching for music from my favorite video games, which at one particular point consisted in part of my SEGA Dreamcast collection. One game, Trickstyle, I happily found musics for on a certain webpage. I seem to recall 7 separate track links, yet I must have done something wrong, for upon playback, one seemed to be a duplicate of another, so I removed one and ended up with only 6.
My recent research has, unfortunately, turned up nothing on the page that I recall seeing in the past. Does anyone know if it might still exist? And in any case, does anyone else also share this collection, especially a separate 7th track? Is there any tag information I'm missing? (I had to re-rip these from a CD that I had burned them onto for listening in the car, when there was no other way to hook up external players)
You can find my Trickstyle music collection here on SendSpace

- Taz: Wanted - .wav and .wav.str Files by Cornholio309 at 4:19 PM EDT on August 4, 2015
- Hello everyone. Posting here again in hopes somebody could shed some light on these audio files.
The Nintendo GameCube version of Taz:Wanted has all of the music stored in a file called "streams.gcp". Using a quickbms script, I was able to extract what was in there, but the file contents have me a bit confused.
Each track is seemingly split up into two files. One with a .wav extension at the end of it, and the other with a .wav.str extension. The wav is ridiculously tiny (usually being only about 1kb or less), so I figure it's nothing of interest, but the .wav.str files are a lot bigger and seemingly have the music data.
The issue with that is that I for the life of me cannot figure out how to play these .wav.str files. Using Foobar2000's vgmstream component either results in an error, around 50 minutes of bizarre clicking and static noises being played, or Foobar2000 crashes altogether. Using Audacity's "Import Raw" option hasn't worked well for me either, though I can seem to hear some music past the awful static. Any ideas?
Here's an example pulled from the streams.gcp file: "aqua outro cs".
The .wav file:
https://mega.co.nz/#!Ld0kibxS!osPLbeq0J2i-iDIfFjPK6tWmHfmk_y1YpKl1hKb8NFw
The .wav.str file:
https://mega.co.nz/#!fA9lkYyI!EqZHYF3w0Yh624U7sm1lmmRwNgHRJtswtn4ChVLTz7g
All I could gather from some Google searching is that this is how audio is handled in every game developed by the company Blitz around this time period. Other ports of Taz: Wanted seemingly have the audio stored in an archive with the same file name, but with a different extension.
Any help figuring out how to play these would be appreciated! The soundtrack here is rather catchy, and I'd love to convert these to FLAC and MP3 to play on a wider range of media devices!
Thank you for your time!

- Earthworm Jim: Special Edition (Windows) by birdmanager6 at 7:03 PM EDT on August 5, 2015
- Hi, there. I'm working on making collections that include all the sound effects from Earthworm Jim 1 and 2. These will include every sound from most versions. Progress has been going along for the EWJ2 sound collection, but with EWJ, I've hit a roadblock.
I have successfully ripped the sound effects from the SNES version, using SNESSOR95 and SNES9x, and the "Snot a problem" voice clip from the GBA version using Audacity. However, as many people know, not only is the SNES version missing some sound effects from the Genesis version to begin with, but the "Special Edition" adds many more, as well as replacing a few, so I'll need to rip that version to complete the collection.
I have the Windows 95 version, and I managed to find which file the samples are located in, INIT.EW, but they are in a format that I can't rip properly.
What happens is in Audacity, when I import it as an unsigned 8-bit PCM at about 9000hz, I can hear them, but they sound double speed and an octave higher. By importing it at 4500 or by slowing it down -50, I can hear it at the right speed and pitch, but in extremely bad quality.
This means that they're unsigned 4-bit, because the quality is clearly much better in-game (even though the quality is still degraded in-game). Unfortunately, the farthest down Audacity can import raw data at is 8-bit. I even tried importing it as VOX ADPCM, which is a 4-bit format. There, I get the right speed and pitch at the right frequency, but it sounds extremely clipped, so it's not ADPCM.
I've tried looking online for help with no avail. I found this forum (http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=38671), which has the exact same problem as me, but there's no real answer, and it hasn't been active since 2010.
Apparently, SOX can convert raw audio, but like Audacity, not 4-bit. I even looked at VGSC of The Sounds Resource, but it doesn't say 4-bit PCM.
I have also had this same problem with most Genesis games (strangely, EWJ2 is an exception, but I only needed it for the "C" voice clip).
What I need is for one of you dedicated video game sound rippers to create a Windows application with source code that reads an entire file in a 4-bit raw audio format, and saves it as an 8-bit WAV file. The program must also have an editable frequency. It's recommended to be a command-line tool, but it doesn't have to be.
That would definitely be appreciated.
- Thunder Force IV and Sega Genesis music players by Franpa at 11:34 PM EDT on August 6, 2015
- 1) What Sega Genesis *.vgm & *.vgz audio players are still currently in development?
2) Which music players, regardless of their development status, are able to produce sound like what is heard in this video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psSamm93uCE
VGMStream produces poor audio compared to that video.
Edit: I wouldn't be surprised if the audio in that video is inaccurate but damn does it sound nice. Apparently various models of the Sega Genesis have wildly different audio systems too.

- Metal Gear Twin Snakes voice clips from cutscenes by LAST_WINDOW at 5:12 AM EDT on August 8, 2015
- I'm trying to rip sound files from the GameCube remake of MGS. I used Dolphin to extract the files, SPTex to get the .dsp files from the .spd files, and then a fork of Audacity that has support for .dsp files to convert them to .wav.
I have every sound file from the soundbanks and the stream folder (although the voice clips from the soundbanks seem to already be in the stream folder and with higher quality), but they don't seem to include audio from the cutscenes, and I was wondering if there's a way to get them.
Thanks.

I've been searching for a way to correctly extract multichannel IMA ADPCM streams out of fsb containers for a long time now. I was unlucky in finding a solution online as well as trying to deinterleave the extracted files and adding a proper header to them.
My last hope is this forum. Mono and Stereo files are properly extracted by fsbext.exe. All others don't work.
Here are some samples: http://www.multiup.org/download/8b01673363fa4306a8c199087e3351a9/IMA_multi_samples.7z

- Can we play Crystal Chronicles' music similar to how we can with Mother 3? by Uikri at 9:35 AM EDT on August 14, 2015
- For Mother 3, we are able to take the MIDIs and play them with the game's soundfont. Are we able to play Final Fantasy: Crystal Chroicles' music in this same manner, and if so, is there any way to have them loop like we can with most other game music formats? Additionally, is there a download link for the MIDIs, or whatever file format the music is in, anywhere?

- Hot Shots Golf 3 PSF2? by mrjaredbeta at 10:47 AM EDT on August 17, 2015
- Pretty unpopular game, but I believe that the music is sequenced. All of the data files are encrypted as some .XB file extension on the disc. I opened up one from the "SND" folder and sure enough I saw ".bd" and ".hd", the PS2's sequence and instrument files. I don't know anything about this but I like music, so can anyone please maybe take a look at this? Greatly appreciated.
Here is an example of one of the files: http://www.mediafire.com/download/aat8ot2q66w6gw6/CO_AR.XB

I know VGM Toolbox has this feature but the results are inconsistent (some games work, others like DKCR work partially and games like Mario Party 9 seem to not work at all).
Are there any alternatives / am I doing something wrong? I know this is one of those headache formats.
- The Lost Vikings GBA Ripped by birdmanager6 at 7:02 AM EDT on August 19, 2015
- Hi, there.
After importing the GBA version of The Lost Vikings into Audacity, I have made an interesting discovery.
All the audio in the game is at 8500hz. Unlike most games, where they use sequenced music composed of many channels of instruments of samples at different frequencies, this game uses streamed music, which is all the music tracks recorded directly from the original SNES version, which explains why many of the songs don't loop correctly and/or are missing a part at the end. The music is actually encoded in ADPCM, a 4-bit format that most games don't use, which was probably used to better compress the music, while the sound effects are standard 8-bit signed waveforms. The audio is stored near the end of the ROM, with the sound effects and then the music.
Here is a link of a full rip of two WAV files, one of the music, and one of the sound effects. Now you can enjoy the audio at its full quality (despite it still not being as good as the SNES quality). :)

- My new mission of SFX rips by birdmanager6 at 6:27 AM EDT on August 26, 2015
- Hi, there, I'm birdmanager6, and I'd like to tell you that I'm starting working on a large collection of complete, high-quality SFX rips of games no one else bothered to rip.
My main policy is that I have a zero-tolerance policy for recording single samples from in-game. With that, the quality would be worse, especially for SEGA consoles, and at the wrong sample rate. I only use in-game recordings for non-sampled sound effects, and I use ways to directly import samples, and make sure they're at the right sample rate. All of my files are in WAV format, not MP3, OGG, or FLAC, and in a ZIP archive.
My ripping techniques are well-organized, and I use Audacity to edit and save the final WAV files.
Here is a link to my sample rip folder on Google Drive. So far, I have ripped two games: Chester Cheetah: Too Cool to Fool (SNES), and Aladdin (Virgin Interactive). The archives both have a readme.txt file explaining more about them, and how I ripped them.
I have an idea of how to rip most of these games, but I will need to ask for help of a few.
This is only the very beginning, as there will be many more rips! I will also be hosting them on The Sounds Resource, and I have already submitted both my rips so far, but they won't appear until the site gets another update, which won't happen for a while.
Have fun!

- Mickey Mania: The Timeless Adventures of Mickey Mouse (SEGA CD) Unknown codec by birdmanager6 at 6:43 AM EDT on August 26, 2015
- I have been working on ripping Mickey Mania: The Timeless Adventures of Mickey Mouse for my big SFX rip series (http://hcs64.com/mboard/forum.php?showthread=42565). I have completed 2 of the 3 parts of it, as I have successfully ripped the sounds from the SNES and Genesis versions. But I need help with the SEGA CD version to complete the rip.
What's weird about the Genesis version's samples are that they're signed 8-bit, not unsigned, as it seems to be the case with the three Matt Furniss games I tried (this one, Boogerman: A Pick and Flick Adventure, and The Lion King), as well as Animaniacs. They're also all at the same frequency, 9000 hz, which makes it easy to rip.
So, I tried the same settings on the SEGA CD version. I found the appropriate files in the ISO, which I have uploaded in the link below, but importing them makes the samples sound...well...really distorted, and barely recognizable, even though they sound at the right frequency. I tried importing it at unsigned 8-bit, which would likely fix the problem in most cases, but strangely, it sounds exactly the same. Even ADPCM didn't work.
Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_zYoz3nVdW_VndIWnBrMnhpLVU/view?usp=sharing
How do I import it properly? What codec does this game use? I read somewhere on another forum that they had trouble with Sonic CD, is this the same issue? Please help me...
Also, there is a sound test, but I said I have a zero-tolerance policy for recording samples from in-game, which messes up the quality, so I'll only use that for what I'm going to name the files.
- Way to directly rip from Xbox One? by dogman91x at 9:55 AM EDT on August 27, 2015
- If the files can't be prodded into, maybe someone with a digital audio cable can record it that way? Something that isn't a line out rip would be amazing for the 'secret' songs from Rare Replay, including unreleased stuff from Dream (Grant Kirkhope), Killer Instinct 2, Conker's Twelve Tales, etc.
