new YM2612 original: Turrican Strikes Again

Made using VOPM with patches and samples ripped from Mega Turrican. It's typical video game level length, though I'd like to extend the arrangement a bit. Could also another channel or two.

Awesome! Great choice in patches, fantastic arrangement, and clever offsetting of the hi-hats as samples instead of putting it on the noise channel. Brilliant stuff. :)

Who said they were offsetted? :P

Apparently, Chris Huelsbeck, Turrican composer, created a custom engine for the MD that cleanly mixes PCM, giving that particular channel two virtual channels, judging from the soundtrack for the International Superstar Soccer port he helped out with! :P

Yeah, the drum samples are very clean and I noticed it was multi-channel due to the crash being layered over the kicks and snares in the original music. The hihats are their own FM channel.

Awesome track as I have posted on SoundShock

The A.U.D.I.O.S. WaveSlave MD sound engine can do 2 channel PCM playback, but only inside single 32KB window. Z80 does samples, 68K does FM and PSG.

My HDD broke, but I managed to save this project and continued working on it. After a while VOPM decided to start crashing like crazy again though... So I wrapped up what I have before it becomes unbearable.
