Sting did not want to appear in the game. In the demo (early 1992) Paul had another face as Cryo hasn't yet secured rights for Kyle McLachlan image. Look the demo here : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-D93RFwQsis4.html

I highly prefer the Amiga version over this one. This one sounds nice, but the Amiga score is one of the best ever made. Iconic.

@barbarianbros 6 месяцев назад

Amiga version is superb but is limited to 3 tracks (and one of these only used during the intro). So only 2 track looping during play. PC/Sega-CD version have 9 tracks so it is less repetitive.

@barbarianbros 6 месяцев назад

Dune does not support General MiDi nor Sound Canvas. It supports : -OPL2 (adlib soundblaster) -OPL3 + surround (AdLib Gold) -MT-32. As it does not use any custom instruments wiith the MT32, it may be played on a SC-55 in 'MT32 Emulation' mode.

@monsieurouxx 6 лет назад

You forgot to mention that this is the CD version; it's a revamped soundtrack compared to the original version. Or maybe you used a custom sample table.

@barbarianbros 6 лет назад

Soundtrack is the same on CD and floppy version, excepted that the CD version has 2 more tracks for the Virgin and Cryo Logos.There is 3 sets of music files in the Dune data files, one for OPL2 FM synthesis (AdLib soundblaster), one for OPL3 with surround effects (AdLib Gold) and one for Roland LA synthesis (MT32). Actually the video was recorded from the CD version, but music was recorded from Floppy version. I simply renamed successively each .M32 file as Arrakis.M32 so they play at the beginning of the game, and you can only do that with the Floppy version as in the CD version all data files are concatained in a huge single file (same thing for KGB/Conspiracy). I did not use any sample table, only my old Roland MT32 device (model : V.1 old). But the MT32 version is a simple conversion with no custom instruments, less good than the incredible sounds Stéphane Picq gets from OPL2/OPL3 FM synthesis.

@monsieurouxx 6 лет назад

Thanks for the detailed explanations. As I said this could very well be the expected soundtrack(as you clarified) but the instruments have more of a beep-boopy sonority to the OPL3 soundtrack I'm used to. So I'm guessing that the Roland MT32 1.0 does not have the same samples embedded, or maybe it's simply the absence of bass! Or even the left/right balance.
