LETHAL ENFORCERS SNES SOUND TEST HOW TO

I woudn't be surprised if a lot of SNES musicians weren't too familiar with this concept. Certain instruments will work better than others, and electronic/synthetic music is always easier to get the right sound out of.Īnd of course, just like when you are mixing your tracks in "actual" music production, I'm sure you want to prevent the frequencies of multiple instruments to clash with eachother. No matter the sample rate, there are just some sounds that will never come out well on a SNES, especially for the purpose of playing music. One thing I always suspected is that the constant attempt to make something that sounds like real instruments tended to backfire a lot on developers. Tim Follin is another really fine example - although I much prefer his NES soundtracks, the music in Plok sounds remarkably clear compared to almost every other SNES game. So it's definitely possible to go beyond what people usually expect from this machine. This would be really cool for someone to look into, I haven't seen a lot of writing on this subject, and as Espozo already pointed out, David Wise really knew how to make the SNES soundchip purr, like almost no other. Also, although it sounds like shit, the SFC port of Undercover Cops blows my mind for having so many sound samples that need to be played at the same time even if they are terrible. I'm assuming the disparity in instrument quality in songs has more to do with space than how the instruments themselves sound, unless there are some instruments that aren't as impacted by lower sample rates or Gaussian filtering. Ironically, if you listen to Rendering Ranger R2, the guitar sounds sound almost exactly like the ones from the Roland SC55 while some of the others are shit-tier (Stage 2's music will make your ears bleed).
It's really dependent on what instruments are being used for each song, as while I love both Nuts and Bolts and Big Boss Blues, the guitar sound samples are of noticeably less quality than the rest for whatever reason. The Donkey Kong Country games all sound very good for the most part, but a few songs like Gangplank Galleon, Bayou Boogie, and Rockface Rumble sound nearly CD quality.
