[@jacksonshelton8055]

The drums being played look very interesting on the oscilloscope... they sound pretty high quality, yet have a grit to them.

[@chiptunerat]

theyre actually pretty compressed in order to fit in a 4mb cart that holds all the instrumentation, samples, game instructions and art data. if you look at the sample more in depth there are a lot of straight lines representing interrupts in the sample in order to decrease bitrate. It's that lower bitrate that gives the sample its grittiness

[@jacksonshelton8055]

@@chiptunerat Really? That's pretty interesting! I'm guessing they had to do that instead of just reducing the sample rate because of different interrupts related to controlling the sound chip and other registers.

[@mr.megadrive6881]

@@jacksonshelton8055 yeah pretty much. Something cool is that you can actually record those drums and cut the small interrupts to get a much cleaner sound while still keeping the low dac sample quality.

got Mean Bean Machine as a promotional mail-in freebie when I got my genesis for christmas back in the day because 'i like sonic,' and 'i like tetris.' Was woefully ill-prepared for how fantastic the music would be. Rescued some fat-knobbed stereo unit from the trash at the apartments where we lived at the time, and my Genesis was effectively my ipod of the era lol

[@user-acs64]

its not that noticeable if you listen to the regular song because of the Loud and Intense Drums but in the original Puyo Puyo Version it is since the drums arent intense

Forget rocknroll. This is what angry music *really* sounds like.

[@vultusalbus4216]

Back in the day, in order to create a delay effect one would use two channels, duplicate the notes/signal, delay the notes on the second channel, decrease its amplitude (for instance, by halving it), and spread both channels to the left and right sides respectively (or to the right and left sides) to enhance the delay effect and make it more noticeable to the listener. In Europe, the music composers were more clever starting with the 8 bit era, when they would create arpeggios to emulate a chord on a monophonic channel. Commodore composers went one step further by changing the waveform back and forth on each channel to create the illusion of more than three instruments or channels playing at the same time. Kudos Europeans. Kudos to the Japanese too for being simpler in a unique way
