UPDATE: A few changes.
First post in a while, and it's nothing special. Anyway, it's Bowser's Castle from Mario Kart: Super Circuit on the GBA. It uses the VRC6 and was made with the 3.5 beta, so I included the NSF. I ripped the samples from the game... I don't remember if I used all of them...
There are a few things that are quite inaccurate, mostly with the percussion.
Thanks to TechEmporium for the help with some volume issues, I just couldn't get it to sound right.
Dang, it's 5AM...

Just seen this from one of your old posts. Now we have got percussion instruments identical to lead instruments. (00 and 05, 01 and 0

The 2xxs in frame 02 is terrible. Fix:
VRC6SQ1
A-2 04 - ---
--- -- - ---
G-2 04 - 30B
--- -- - ---
E-2 04 - 300
VRC6SQ2
E-2 04 - ---
--- -- - ---
D-2 04 - 310
--- -- - ---
B-1 04 - 300
SAWTOOTH
A-2 04 F ---
--- -- - ---
G-2 04 - 310
--- -- - ---
E-2 04 - 300

Some vibratos/portamentos are missing.

Frame 06 and 08 is suddenly too soft.

The sawtooth channel from frame 09 to 0B is one octave lower then it is supposed to be.

Many channels after that are also one octave lower.


Reminds me of the same piece of work done in MMC5 more than half a year ago when I was a heavy n00b.

That was a decent cover. I liked the main 2A03 square 1 instrument.
I made some changes, with that 3xx command being the most important.
