I know right? The perfect anthem for a 2000s style future where conspiracies run rampant and aliens wage covert war. (Also dig the profile name. I can't believe you can only get Copa/Gabagool in Antipasto packs in the UK because it's the holy grail of Italian meats.)
How do you get audio from these classic old games in such high quality? I salute you and your efforts! And I swear to god if Nintendo DMCA strikes this channel, there will be blood
@@Wicked_Fox Nope! This set pipes the original Nintendo 64 music data through my own custom pipeline and out a Yamaha MONTAGE 8. This means there are minor differences, but it’s going through world-class dedicated hardware so the gain in quality tends to outweigh the minor differences such as a longer time to go from one pan/volume to another pan/volume (the real game takes 4 samples to change volume, while here it is longer, for example). But if accuracy is your thing, the HD Ultra sets use completely new technology: A synthesizer I wrote from scratch in C++ designed specifically to render the music how Nintendo 64 does, but in 64-bit float precision and full algorithms instead of cheap ones they used for CPU-I call it Nintendo Synthy-4. Even the reverb is exact! (Except for Jet Force Gemini which was beta and will be redone later).
@@Video-Game-OST-HQ I didn't notice there was Retro HD and HD Ultra versions you uploaded! So HD Ultra is a clearer better quality and has more accurate sound with no loss in instruments and Retro HD is high quality sound but with the slight feel of that old compression? Don't know how to describe it exactly... Also, what's the difference between HD And HD+? I know HD Ultra is the highest quality.
“Better“ depends on what you want! Retro HD+: Usually faithful with some noticeable upgrades such as stereo reverb instead of mono reverb. Retro HD: Tend to be faithful, upgrades kept to a minimum. These are done in 44.1 KHz/24-bit and use dedicated world-class synthesis hardware, so they certainly shine! HD Ultra: More accurate than the game (the game’s MIDI timer drifts, the game will use approximations for trig functions, and many tracks play notes with frequencies above the game’s Nyquist limit, causing aliased reflections that are eliminated at 48 KHz, just to give a few examples)! Differences between the game and an HD Ultra set mean the game is wrong (except Jet Force Gemini)! So it depends on what kind of listening experience you want!
