Maybe a mode 7 one nmstl can be incorporated with the new optimized one??? I've always hated the limits of Mode 7 boss battle because of the special sprite bg or fg (Bowser) priority.

Not necessarily a mode 7 version but one that is compatible with mode 7, such as the boss fights. It's really hard to make a custom fight with Mode 7 when you are SO limited with the amount of sprites you are able to put by the default headers. Even with Reznor on a regular level the NMSTL headers glitch them in the wrong positions.

I have a feeling playing around with sample 04's adsr could get you what you want instead of using 08. Maybe I'll give this a shot and see if I can get something similar and PM it to you, I don't know, but it sounded great, I honestly liked what you did with it .

Hello people of the internet! So today I submitted the YI Soundtrack and it is waiting in the moderation section at number 19 in line. So hopefully that gets in soon... Also, on the unsampled Soundtrack, I redid some ADSRs on the songs. The whole unsampled Soundtrack is actually done except I'm waiting to get a timpani ADSR right. So please don't hesitate to check out Athletic, Big Boss, Flower Garden, and new to the sneak peak list, World 6. I will put a link to the unsampled version as soon as I get the last ADSR for one sample and WAMO. They actually sound pretty decent, some might be loud, but then again, the Yoshi's Island songs by default are pretty loud. If it really irritates people that much, I'll lower the global volume. Also a heads up for you SMAS fans, I will start to delete all SPCs I have at the moment and replace them all with their updated versions soon.

Hey thanks man! Yeah, it's actually quite some work .

FINALLY GUYS! A SMAS Soundtrack update! Well maybe not one you'd expect *coughs* Like a new SMAS port... I updated EVERY SPC with their up to date version. Fixed echo values, slight tunes, volume stuff, even pseudo echo effect channels. Try giving them a hear and tell me what you guys think. It was a pain deleting every old SMAS SPC and then putting every SPC one by one ! But now that that's over with, how abut a new port? This one is just a little fiddle I was fiddling with, New Super Mario Bros. Wii Overworld (Sampled). I don't know if it's still a WIP, but for me it at least sounded ready to show off. Enjoy guys!

EDIT: Fixed BAHS!...

Thanks for the feedback ! Unfortunately I couldn't get hihats or cymbals in there but I was able to get a snare that I missed from the drum pattern (how???). I also was able to find some decent trumpets. I added the bongo percussion as well as the timbale breaks. Also fixed the panning and volume issues. So, how's it sounding?

Fixed the NSMB Overworld port and I think it's pretty much done to my likings but I will wait to hear what people have to say. I switched channels 5 & 6 with 7 & 8 so the SFX wouldn't cut off important notes, besides, those guitar chords are pretty quiet. As for the echo, I'm experimenting at the moment whether or not I should give it slight echo or just none at all.

I did this and it turned out quite well! As for the hardpannings, the reason I did them like that is because I was using this video as reference, and as you can see, everything was pretty much hard panned to a specific ear with the exception of the main melody in the center. I can see your point, I just want to give you a reason as to why I did it like that at first . Either way, I took the advice and adjusted the pannings to a more ear friendly manner XD.
Also, I have a new port to add to the SMAS Soundtrack. It's a seemingly unused one known as the Bonus. Pretty short song, I think it was suppose to be more of a fanfare than a level song.

I'm assuming this is for @10???

You have my YI Soundtrack, use the texts as reference, I labeled every instrument. Use HOTL's post or the AMK readme to see what each hex number stands for. The first custom instrument starts @30. On forward are custom instruments.

I hope we can combine this with my SMAS Soundtrack, it'd be a REALLY great combo!

I have a question about looped samples. Like what is better about them than not looped samples? What I do for brrs right now is that I make a .wav, then insert it in a bnk, make an SPC with AMK that jx uses that one sample and then take the SPC into Split700 and get the brr. From that they insert but I noticed that I can't stretch the note, it has a specified length. Is that what the looping is for? I'm trying to loop the BAHS! in my NSMB port so it can sound better and longer and I've read this here but the pictures are no longer there and when I loop the sample it endlessly repeats and am not sure if that's right. Any video tutorial perhaps? Any easier ways? I can't even get SNESBRR to put out a brr file.

So I've taken everyone's opinions and suggestions into consideration. This is how the NSMB port is going right now. I'm just trying to find a way to loop the BAHS if it'll help them sound better. As for the SMAS Soundtrack, the next song on the way is the Super Mario Bros. 3 Boss theme, I've already started on it so expect that soon.

Here it is, if you manage to loop this, would you kindly, if you don't mind, list exactly step by step what you did so I can try this by myself next time? It'd REALLY help a lot. I thought I had this but clearly not...

EDIT: To add on, I opened openMPT and chose the start for a loop and end and deleted the rest of the junk after the end point. It was 3232 samples long and I started the loop at 1952. I imported the wav looped through sample tool and made a bnk, but when I play a note in the SPC, its always the same length whether it's 1/8 of a note long, 1/4, or even a whole note! It's the same lengths unless the pitch is changed! How can I change duration!

Thank you so much! I will try this out more, and NO NO NO! This was a great help! I did misunderstand the loop part, now I just need to actually get a brr from SNESbrr, hopefully this will work. Thanks !!! The sample I meant on the edit was a sawtooth sample I made from FL Studio and I did the EXACT steps and while I got a brr, it doesn't stretch (loop?) when played, it only plays c8 when it's suppose to play c1. The length never changes! I still don't know what's wrong. Here's what I did, opened FL Studio and made the sawtooth play a note and saved it as a wav file. I opened the wave file in Audacity and speed it up to make it a short sample and exported that, I then took that modified wav and opened it in openMPT and set the start loop at 1680 and end at 4384 and deleted the stuff after the end loop point. I then took the wav and opened it in SNESbrr and got the brr sample set with the loop at 1680. I opened the brr with HxD and inserted two bytes (80 16) and saved it. I then inserted the sample into my song. It's suppose to play c1<a1e1f1 but instead plays something like c4<a4e4f4. SO yeah...

Woah I jx edited my last post while you wrote this, hopefully this is what I'm doing wrong. I'll give it a shot .

I did look and even took imamelia's suggestions but they didn't match to what I needed. I was about to request in the sample recommendations thread but thought this'd be the perfect opportunity to try this. As for the sample, I tried it, and while it is close, it doesn't sound like what I need, I need it to sound pretty much spot on exactly like the FL Studio one, the sample you provided was too smooth, maybe there's a command I can try to make it sound more like the midi one, we'll see, again thank you so much!

OH MY O_o, this one's closer! I kind of feel like I've been spamming "thank you" but know I truely appreciate you guys' help, for reals, so I'll just say this instead, GRAZIE!... On a side note... WOOHOO I'm a Lantern Ghost now! XD

And to add on with more piano samples, is there one that play exactly like this, if not super closely? I've tried many piano samples here recommended but none have fit in this octave, and or it's probably because I don't know which piano samples are best for it, however I did experiment quite abit with about 10+ samples with no luck.

Woah, the Birabuto Kingdom brought back A LOT of Nostalgia... Nice work on these, especially with the vanilla instruments!
