Games using the SegaCD PCM Chip

Post by ValleyBell »

I'd like to have a list of all games that use the SegaCD PCM Chip (not CDDA/Redbook Audio).
I've found a topic about it here, but I want to have a complete list that's not spread over 50 pages.
Note: I include already logged games for the sake of completeness.

Here's what I've got:
- BIOS (JP no FM, logged)
Bram Stoker's Dracula
- Dark Wizard [no FM, logged]
- Lunar Eternal Blue (streamed)
- Novastorm
- Popful Mail (logged)
- Road Avenger? (streamed)
- Shadowrun
- Silpheed [no FM, logged]
- Snatcher (logging in progress)
- Sonic CD [past tunes only, no FM, logged]
- Sol-Feace?

Does anyone know other games or can someone confirm the ? games?
Thanks

I would also like to see this so I can start logging more games.

It's also important to note, that some games (such as the dark wizard set I logged) Contain both CDDA audio, and contain PCM tracks as well.

Wow... what a shame... I've been absent for so long.

Valeybell, I remember that Bram Stoker's Dracula didn't use CD music. I think it was only Sega CD PCM because it sounded remarkably like SNES music. Watching the video on YouTube today makes me think the music streamed, much like Road Avenger that you listed above.

Talking about streamed music, Lunar Eternal Blue fits the bill, since it uses Sega CD PCM.

I'll let you know if I remember any other... by the way, any idea when that Snatcher gets logged? :)

Snatcher is on hold until I figure out how I can create a working hack to play songs.
I already disassembled the main 68k sound driver, but the PCM samples are loaded separately by the CD 68k. Thus they are wrong most of the time.

The music with dialogue overdubs in Shining Force CD is streamed, not redbook. Probably not a high priority, though, since the tracks are available without the dialogue as CD audio tracks.
