I got a lot of feedback that not everyone like me likes the Gangplank Galleon version from Smash Bros Ultimate. So I made two versions with the default being my new one that has a heavy beat rock version and in a side folder I have the smash ultimate version. I also updated the Cranky Kong theme. Last July I also updated 6 other tracks so I have made a lot of better changes since my first release. Hope You Enjoy!

It seems that Sam Miller updated his restorations last month to use a more accurate guitar sample: https://twitter.com/PrinceSamlet/status/1337445205184708608

Way ahead of you.
I always keep the DKC Uncompressed packs up to date:



Hey, I have a query about the title theme in NoNameSD's pack, I assume it was made from the "theme_msu version.flac" file? but I see there's also a version just called "Theme.flac" in Miller's archive. Why are there two versions in the first place?
At any rate, Is it possible to please update the current pack with this version? It appears to have been worked on more recently and sounds far better, much smoother guitar than the choppy samples in the mcu version in the current pack.

The file "theme_msu version.flac" has the beginning edited to feature the original SPC-Audio instead of the High-Quality-Audio.Alopex wrote:Hey, I have a query about the title theme in NoNameSD's pack, I assume it was made from the "theme_msu version.flac" file? but I see there's also a version just called "Theme.flac" in Miller's archive.

I guess like the original Intro was meant to showcase the transition from old DK to new DK, this is meant to showcase the transition from compressed SPC to uncompressed PCM.
Though I never asked him about it. I just went with it.
It seems when he updated the theme, he forgot to also update the MSU-Version.
I’ve updated the track now myself. (You need to download the file "dkc_msu-10.pcm" again)

Aah I see, I think the idea of transitioning from SPC to HD is a cute one, i'd definitely keep that as an alternative song in the archive.
Thanks a lot for updating the song.


Good day!
I created some MSU-1 tracks of my own and added it to the DKC Restoration msu file set. I have found that clipping is occurring. At first I thought it was only my new files but even after using the pcm normalization tool on all of the files and bringing them all down to -30 db, even the base Aquatic Ambiance track is clipping at times. Can anyone help me figure out how to fix this?

Maybe it is the patch. If you got pre-patched roms that download from somewhere on the internet some of the old patches had problems where they would work with certain msu1 emulators but never work with other ones.
Another guess is your emulator. Some emulator will only play some of the msu1 patches correctly. For example, i love using my Wii U emulator that lets me play the game on the gamepad. However, a few games clip no matter what as it is not compatible. For example, un squadron and terranigma will clip on my wii u emulator but not my pc or rasberry pi one.
Try this. Make a fresh patch rom following the link on the first post. Then use emulator snes9x v1.60. try both those together and see what happen. If no fix, then we will keep brainstorming what might be happening

Thanks very much for your response. It turns out the problem was just my emulator. I have been using Mesen-S. I stuck with it because it tends to bring out many fine details in the picture quality of games. For my Mega Man and Bass GBA MSU-1 hack, it worked fine, but as you said, different emulators can run different games well or badly. Snes9x v1.60 worked perfectly. No more sound clipping! I'll now regulate every single file to the same volume just in case my custom files are too loud and then update this post with a google drive link.

Hmmm, that’s a bit weird.
I've played these on Mesen-S, SD2SNES and Snes9x v1.60 and I've experienced no clipping whatsoever.
If your version of Mesen-S is lower than 0.4.0, update to that.

I have been going through my older PCM sets and fixing any volume problems they have. This one was horribly too loud and I fixed the volume level of every track of mine. Here is the re-release of the PCM set. I also updated the first post to have the cover art match my YouTube Channel thumbnail. However, it looked really bad forcing it to be the standard 350px,280px. So instead I stretched it a little by making it 450px,280px. If this is going to drive anyone nuts to not have it be the exact length as the other cover arts I can fix that by creating a different cover art.

I did not update my YouTube preview as I did not change any of the tracks with this update. Just know if you watch it that I reduced the volume level to not be so loud.
Also, on a side note, I finished my DKC3 PCM set and I am releasing that in a couple hours from now
