Super Mario Bros. Overworld theme - SEGA Master System remix (PSG & FM)

[@Automusic]

PSG remix on 0:06 FM remix on 2:53

[@robbiewalker2831]

I just thought that when it switches to FM, it sounds similar to the Fortune Street mix.

[@Automatik234]

@Alexander Merchan Sadly just with soundfonts. I still need to get into the right tools. I stopped using soundfonts for 8bit remixes tho anf currently use a plugin that emulates the NES soundchip. Still on my way to find better solutions tho.

[@KTJohnsonkidThunder]

PSG version - Sounds very similar to the NES original. FM version - Sounds similar to the SNES version.

[@Automusic]

Exactly the versions, I aimed for.

[@1985dossantos]

In fact, FM version remembers Sega Mega Drive version of SMB.

[@gabrieldavila3562]

Posiblemente la versión PSG se asemeja más a la versión arcade al usar chip de sonido AY-3-8910 (A.k.a YM2149) o el Chip SN76489 de Texas instruments.

[@Despatche]

Some fun facts: The Master System's PSG and FM implementation is the same as what the MSX PSG and that one MSX FM add-on is, so this is effectively also an MSX remix. Similarly, the FM implementation in Lagrange Point is derived from the above FM tech, so technically any remix like this is also a VRC VII remix. It's a little different though; the VRC VII uses less (!) channels and has different instruments from the normal tech.

[@Automusic]

And the PSG part also technically a Coleco Vision remix...

Ever since Super Mario Bros. has been fully decompiled, it would be interesting to see a port for the Master System / Game Gear. Hey, if they made a port for the Mega Drive (which had a 68000 CPU) and even the Commodore 64, surely they could do the same for the Z80.

[@X-RAGE]

If done right, the Master System port could be better than the NES version since the SMS has better hardware

[@DeEmiZinRANDOM]

pov: if there was no rivalry between sega and nintendo

[@williamhicks7807]

Nice touch, the PSG is based off the original, whilst the FM based on All-Stars

[@AlexParr]

Seriously, how do you not have 1,000,000 subs?!

[@beesree39]

The FM version legit sounds like that one Genesis bootleg

[@H128]

but not as horrible

[@BuddyBoy600alt]

Sounds like Adlib sound card. The Adlib sound card was one of the soundcards for the Microsoft's MS-DOS.

[@TaiFerret]

The first one sounds like SMB Special and the second one sounds like the All Stars version.

[@tommybranca8800]

The FM version almost sounds like the snes version

[@Automusic]

Yeah. With the FM unit's strenghts in mind, I tried to go for that style.

[@X2011racer]

Did you take Nineko's Genesis rendition of the SMB theme and converted to Master System FM, because it sounds like it.

[@Automusic]

To be honest, I used the midi from KHinsider and edited it to have the ammount of voices, the FM chip can handle.

[@MarioSonic2010]

The PSG remix is very faithful to the original version. :)

[@hyakin7818]

The boxart looks so realistic

[@Automusic]

Thanks! I always try to make the visuals interesting, so there's a reason to click on my remixes.

[@tommybakes5972]

If Mario was the mascot of SEGA not Sonic or Alex Kidd

[@cartoonfanboy9139]

Super Boy Done Right!

[@danielfotheringhamproducti7368]

Let’s jam! (Wish that someone would create a Master System version of Super Mario Bros and Mario Bros Arcade)

[@deyaboy8456]

Ahhhhh.... cosas por las que me gusta pagar el internet 😌

[@JonderQuintero]

Awesome adaptation:D i love it. i hope some day adapt music themes from nes videogames like : Ninja Gaiden 1 Megaman Series (i love much themes of that videogames, like Skull Man Theme) SuperC / Super Contra Super Mario Bros 3 Ending Theme Duck Tales Moon Theme

[@BuddyBoy600alt]

Tandy 0:06 Adlib 2:53

[@Flashenite]

Cool Remix especially the fm one

[@Automusic]

Thanks! ;)

[@mevito3213]

2:53 tiene toda la pinta de FM el remix 👍un like

[@H128]

the PSG one sounds awfully like a midi i found on the internet with a soundfont slapped onto it

[@ahrichards5241]

MIDI slap -_-

[@Automusic]

Well. You're right. But nowadays I try to avoid that. They helped me to learn tho.

[@ahrichards5241]

Automusic I see.

[@threeio9951]

This sounds quite similar :)

[@Automusic]

That's because the Master System had similar sound capabilities to the NES. (But a bit inferior) Check out the FM part. That one sounds different.

[@threeio9951]

Automusic oh see, cool. Also download link please?

[@Automusic]

Added to the description. Pls only listen to the downloaded files in the future. If you watch this video, Nintendo gets ad revenue. I don't support Nintendo.

[@threeio9951]

Automusic will do :)

[@Sh-hg8kf]

@@Automusic It was't a "bit" inferior. It lacked a dpcm channel and a triangle channel, thus missing bass and sampling

[@GameplaysBrChrono]

FM Sound: Super Mario Bros Hack for Genesis

[@xLeNnUx]

Hello @Automusic, I wanted to ask you a big favor. Would you be able to recreate the first song from Stage 1 of Super Adventure Island by Snes for the PSG master system? I would thank you very much!!! I'm doing a hack for the Adventure Island for master system and I wanted to put the songs from Super Adventure Island in this hack. I would thank you very much and give credits. Thank you very much.

[@TheNuje]

The PSG version has notes going below A2. I don't think the square waves on the SN76489 can do that. Did you use some trick, or just take liberties with it? Not knocking it at all, though. It sounds great!

[@Automusic]

I guess, I didn't do the research. I'll try to stick with accuracy next time. Is there any site with good documentaion about the SN76489's limitations? I'd love to read through that.

[@TheNuje]

@@Automusic Ok, to be a bit more accurate, the SN76489 can't do tones lower than that on the Master System, as it's bound to the clock speed of the CPU. The chip's data sheet is readily available online if you need more info, but I have a frequency table for the chip running on a Master System somewhere that I can find and send you a bit later if you like!

[@TheNuje]

@@Automusic Input clock (Hz) (3579545) Frequency (Hz) = ---------------------------------- 2 x register value x divider (16) This is the formula based on the Master system's clock. And as per the Sega Mark III's (Sega Master System's) documentation, the frequency is a 10 bit value. Hope that helps!

[@Automusic]

@@TheNuje Thanks! I'll take very information I can get.

[@MaJeeDooo0010]

What does PSG and FM means?

[@Automusic]

PSG stands for "Programmable Sound Generator" and describes the sound chip of the Master System, wich had similat capabilities as the NES sound chip, but slightly inferior. FM stands for "Frequency Modulation", which is a techinque, which wa used in a lot of keyboards. The same technology was used in the SEGA Genesis and also in an addon for the Master System, to have better sound. This is a bit simplified, but you get the idea.

Asi es como se deberia oir no todo pedorro como es en NES
