One thing to be aware of
|
||||||
|
when importing an MSU-1 game
|
||||||
|
is that early firmware versions
|
||||||
|
of the [SD2SNES][sd2snes] programmable cartridge
|
||||||
|
had a bug that caused MSU-1 music to play too quietly.
|
||||||
|
Skipping over [the full details][msu1vol],
|
||||||
|
the short version is this:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- If offered the choice between "boosted" or non-boosted audio,
|
||||||
|
you want the non-boosted version.
|
||||||
|
- If an MSU-1 mod for a commercial game offers
|
||||||
|
"emulator" and "hardware" versions of the patch file,
|
||||||
|
it means the audio tracks are already boosted.

|
||||||
|
have created replacement, non-boosted audio tracks
|
||||||
|
for the most popular MSU-1 mods.
|
||||||
|
If the mod you want to play has a replacement pack,
|
||||||
|
use it with the "hardware" version of the patch.
|
||||||
|
- Even without access to non-boosted audio tracks,
|
||||||
|
it may be that the existing audio is only slightly boosted,
|
||||||
|
so try the "hardware" version first, for best quality.
|
||||||
|
- If the audio tracks are heavily boosted,
|
||||||
|
the "hardware" patch may sound terrible,
|
||||||
|
distorting and clipping,
|
||||||
|
in which case try the "emulator" patch.
