Hello! I am making a cover of the Minor Boss theme, and I was wondering since you guys already made all the instruments and have ripped many of the DPCMs, could I add my song to the collection in progress?
Any contribution is always welcome.

These are amazing. Great great work, this is beyond much of what I can even begin to describe yet. <3
Thanks for the kind words!

The long notes in the pulses had vibrato if I'm not wrong. Also, maybe bass is a little quiet, but everything else is just so perfect! You did a good job with this!
I'ts pretty good in all but I felt that the drums were too quiet and boring, take a look at my edit (all I added was noise hihats, a noise snare, and a noise kick)

Damn that bass patch is good! Added with a few adjustments.
Also, I was thinking, I wonder what different versions modelled after the S3K Collection (OPL-series version, please) and the original Sonic&Knux would sound like, especially the zones with different music (CNZ,ICZ,LBZ) and the ones that sound much different in OPL3 (FBZ2,MGZ).
EDIT: Forgot the cover. D=

Do all the songs need to be speed 1? I see this project goes pretty good and I might also cover one of the songs if I have the time. Any specific song or can I cover just anything?
EDIT: May I rip my own samples and include them in the module in case I need to do so?
As long as it's Sonic 3 and Knuckles (even the PC Collection), it's fine with me. Most of these songs aren't even speed 1 anymore!
And you may include as many samples as you wish (but goodness if you're doing Launch Base!). I will get rid of all the duplicate samples later, and sometimes I even replace my samples with other ones (I now have samples by myself and za909.)
Also, please use the main module as a base and create a new song from there (and add instruments as needed) as it saves time on my part importing/deleting the duplicate instruments. Don't want to hit the 3F-instrument limit so soon, right? :P
(The attachment is a version which updates FBZ with triangle abuse, square changes, and removed duplicates. Now you can listen to FBZ without the DPCM completely! =P EDIT: The newer version here also includes an updated version of Linker2A03's Chrome Gadget with noise snares. Yay, snares!)

I would actually like to contribute one of my favorite Sonic 3 songs myself, but I really don't understand VRC7 instrumentation at all. And I doubt it'll sound as good as you guys are doing it. So i'll leave the covering to you Sound Design pros.
IDK, all your other works are pretty good. But as long as this keeps you from tearing your wrists, I'm fine with it. =P

I was going to use the main module since I thought the same as you, about saving time and space. Also, I will probably recycle many of those instruments and create a custom patch only if necessary, the rest could be done with just blank instruments for the 2A03. Maybe this weekend I'll have something.
[Number of DPCM samples, as well as instruments count, can go up to 64 samples in case you didn't know]
Ah, all right. Well, hopefully this will turn out as good as your other songs!
[Also, I didn't know that, but that shouldn't be a problem... shouldn't...

Flying Battery Zone sounds different in the newest beta release (0.4.3 beta 2) because the bass notes halt a little earlier than in 0.4.2. I'll still use the latter to make my cover.
EDIT: I'm almost there, I'll post it tonight and also fix anything that might be wrong before I post it here.
Instruments 18 and 1D are duplicates, both share the #13 Patch. Also, I hope it doesn't bother if I created 4 new instruments into the main module. I needed one custom and two predefined patches which weren't created before, and I also duplicated and modified one of the 2A03 instruments for the percussion.
You won't be disappointed by this song, I promise.
EDIT2: Here, I finished the song. Maybe some details like the volume balance or the custom bass patch could be changed, but overall I'm pretty happy with it. Hope you enjoy it. YEAH! Doomsday Zone! Any problems with it?
