“Gauntlet IV (MD/Genesis) - Transparent Obstacle” [Oscilloscope View] 

Yup I just came here from him too lol. Slaps soooo hard.

That’s what brought me here, too

I am also hear because of that reason, and I agree this is a killer track.

Hidden Jam alert is right for sure

Hidden jam

Same here. This track rocks.

i came here for "unknown" reasons

Dylan sent me

Really says something when another legendary Mega Drive/Genesis composer thinks this is their favorite

Also, Masaharu Iwata went on to make music for Final Fantasy.

Yeah this is a pretty jammy hidden jam

Yeah that ain't GEMS.

@@hoorayforhawksbills guess what? This is GEMS: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-efXv3U7PX3w.html

And Final Fantasy Tactics.

A paper mario AND lumpy touch fan???

6th channel could play pcm samples, but I don't think this song uses any. The percussion is all fm.

from what i learned about the genesis, apparently the FM chip isn't the only sound chip in the system. It also has a holdover from the Mastersystem integrated into it, which has four PCM channels, three of which simulate a basic square wave and a fourth that acts as a noise channel it's pretty interesting stuff, even if it took over a year for someone to answer that question

@@TheGreatGario no, the SMS chip can only play 3 square waves and one noise channel. There is only one default PCM channel on Genesis. Thanks to Toy Story dev being the God that he is, however, nowadays you can use a known trick to allow up to 4 PCM samples on that one channel by playing with sample size and timings. So that'd be. 5 FM, 3 square waves, one noise and 4 PCM. Talk about amazing!

@@SpiralPegasus software multiplexing, but it requires a lot of CPU power to do so. most Genesis games only used 1 PCM channel for this reason. a handful used PSG3+4(noise channel) for hihats also some later titles opted for FM drums to both save on space and reserve FM6 for sound effects(assigning less important layers to that channel, such as Metal Squad using it for guitar 2’s echo) there is a driver out there that uses less CPU while capable of playing two PCM samples simultaneously though. as for this song, it’s actually entirely FM+PSG. the drums are all FM, the basses are FM, but the arpeggio is a combination of FM and PSG

There was a PCM channel but this song doesn't use any samples.

You mean Undertale starts to sound vaguely like this, since this predates it by about 20 years

@@TheMalMeninga No, I mean, it starts to remind me of an Undertale song. Because I'm not listening to Undertale at the moment, it's coming out of my memory. I didn't bother to word it like so because I expected most people here know this game is older, and understand my meaning.

This is 9 tracks, with their respective left and right channels.
