Which are your favorite sound chips and synthesis styles used for retro games, /vr/?
>>
where the hell did the other thread go: synth vs fm or something?
>>
>>3154890
the janny deleted it for some reason
>>
Is there a list of games that use the PSX sound chip and Saturn's YMF292 rather than playing music off the CD? Like Final Fantasy 7 did.
>>
>>3155127
You can find the SSF/PSF rips to a bunch of saturn/psx games online, which is what you're asking for. None of these use CD music.

Thanks, familia.

>>3155127
these rips may be more up to date but include games with cd audio. You can tell which have more cd audio by the file size.

Could the saturn do FM Synth? I was checking out Yu-no's saturn soundtrack and it sounds pretty close to the original PC-98 renditions.
Saturn:

PC-98:

Yes, it could also do PCM sample playback and had 32 channels as opposed to PS1's 24 and SNES' 8.
>>
>>3154937
He probably thought it was console war bait.
>>
>>3155483
The Saturn has a special chip built just for it that can do both FM and PCM.

It's part of the reason that ports like Battle Garegga have nearly perfect music.

Mods, please change the word fart/s into something neat like Blast Processing.

>>3155608

>>3155803
On a level I'll concede to you, though anyone legitimately using "Blast Processing" in a sentence is likely shitposting anyway. Client side filters to remove these posts would be trivial in any case.

On topic, why hasn't anyone brought up sid 6851 audio, too old?

Sonic Jam uses the saturn sound chip for the genesis music.

Because it sounds great.

My friends, we need samples, youtube musics like the other thread!
>>
>>3155854
As a matter of fact. no it didn't, it streamed 22050hz tracks from the disc. Was FM on the Saturn that much of a bitch to come up with such compromises? Sonic Jam would be a perfect port otherwise (also if they made harder difficulties instead of catering to the casual crowd).
>>
>>3155595
Seriously mad that got deleted and not the Aerosmith/Ren & Stimpy-bait stuff. I wanted that discussion about the Roland SC-88ST to continue!

I've always loved the chip-generated music in Panzer Dragoon Saga, showing off what that last-generation Yamaha chip was capable of.

i cant figure out how the fuck its supposed to work

That's how programming works. You write the hard stuff once, and then keep it around for later use so you don't have to reinvent the wheel later.

But some SFX were actually from the production samples before they made an FM counterpart so that's pretty frickin cool.

The SNES sound chip sounds too much like wet farts

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRTp95MZ7Cc
>>
>>3160519
the character's fart at 0:58 sounds more wet, or more real in the audio Right channel

the fart on the Left soudns mechanical, reminds of how ones own voice sounds when speaking in front of a fan

i guess that's what ppl call burps and farts
>>
>>3158049
my FUCKING nigga

SID and the Game Boy's chip a best imo
