CD-Quality Video-Game Music Revisited

(1/3) > >>

L. Spiro:
As many know I have been working on creating modern high-quality versions of songs from many Nintendo 64 games. These are all the actual songs from the games (not from the CD or USF, nor are they remixes).
My goal here is to be completely faithful to the original songs, but to produce the highest-quality versions so we can enjoy them in very crisp and clear detail.

Here is the full set:

Perfect Dark coming soon.


I would like to do the same thing with Final Fantasy VII.  Has anyone made a "best and most accurate" set of samples, MIDI files, and bank data for Final Fantasy VII?  The original PC release had some problems in that department and I didn't see this exact thing in the audio section here.

Covarr:
You've pasted your links wrong. All of them got truncated in the middle with rogue ellipses inserted in their stead. Did you copy this from a post on another forum? If so, it's better to copy the post's source than the final rendered post, because many boards have a tendency to shorten URLs for display.

L. Spiro:
Fixed.
Do we have the original samples and MIDI files for the music on the PlayStation version of Final Fantasy VII?  If so I can do this same thing to the entire Final Fantasy VII OST as well.

faulked:
This is great work. Never heard Star Fox 64 sound as good! Could you possibly do Ogre Battle 64? I'd loved to hear it in HQ too.  ;D

Another question. Would it be feasible to apply this same technique to GBA games? All the GBA soundtracks are spoiled by the compressed samples which causes hissing. To hear GBA music in HQ would be remarkable.

L. Spiro:
I believe I can do this for GameBoy Advance, Nintendo DS, Nintendo 3DS, etc., and do have plans to look into it.
To do any given game I will need a copy of the game in some form.  Ogre Battle 64 is not a game I have.
