this is incredible! i like the time Trax style drums and the fm6 and dac switching

[@lesterrr12312]

gosh, that's a masterful use of channel 5 for drums!!!! also interesting how channels 2-4 swap instruments for different parts.. also that psg is strangely in tune the whole time and clearly audible, overall sounds very clean, nice job!

[@lesterrr12312]

oh, wait, so channel 6 is what plays the lead after all! so it doesn't have to ONLY play samples, interesting..

[@RWL2012]

@@lesterrr12312 channel 6 is switchable between a 6th FM channel or the DAC sample channel.

[@galcha51]

Good stuff! The FM drums are really good ! That frees the FM6 for other samples, really nice!

I like this kind of channels. Covers from mega drive and Snes, well done... Keep it up... 😁

Is that lead sound at 0:34 from Toejam and Earl? I love it.

[@ObviousYM]

Nope, it’s actually from Time Trax

Calvier, I think

[@ccgamer-in2vd]

Its so rare that the drums are created with the fm channels and they are not samples, its very rare

[@SPCSFEAS]

those ym2608 styled drums fit well with the song.

Wow, this literally just popped up in my recommended and I love it.

[@SpiralPegasus]

Astoundingly accurate cover! Impressive!!

[@gabrielb.1454]

Incredible work! Markey Jester make a same cover but with Dual PCM. You use a FM percussion and DAC only for Sonic CD samples

[@Nine287]

It's an exciting Cool Remix and I love it, but running it on an original console poses a challenge due to the peculiarities of the Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC). The DAC's behavior is unconventional when it comes to playing FM sounds-you can't seamlessly switch between FM and DAC. The intriguing question arises: how does one play samples on an FM channel? The key lies in the necessity to maintain these samples within the FM channel, adding an extra layer of complexity to the audio dynamics. But overall really good Remix!

[@ObviousYM]

Although the DAC can be finicky there have been examples of games that uses the gems driver channel allocation which in games like Cool Spot have been able to switch on and off the dac on the fly.

FM drums? Nice.

Also you got a subscriber

[@someonecalledrichardthehuman]

The attention to detail is awesome , I have a question , can you compose original music and also not in YM2612?, because if i manage to assemble a game development studio, i can finally make a game that has been in the concept stage for well over 2 years , and i need a composer and i want to know if you will be able to do it ( of course when the game at least qets into pre-alpha )

[@ObviousYM]

Most definitely

[@someonecalledrichardthehuman]

This sounds incredible! But, there is one thing I feel that is wrong about this remix. Personally, the saxophone, at least I think it is, sounds dreadful. But, that's really all I have to say. Also, at 0:34, Time Trax's lead instrument sounds a lot like the one used in Undertale, specifically Sans' Theme. Maybe you could do a remix of that sometime or something?

[@ObviousYM]

@@_EricEDT_ yup that’s what I thought to, I have another project file in my discord with a better sounding saxophone

[@trulyinfamous]

I'm surprised you found a good use for the awful square channels on the Genesis. 1 terrible noise channel and a few very limited square channels to make them kinda suck to do anything with. If there was pulse width, they could at least be a little like the NES.
