No, I'm not saying that... I just want to say that when I find a soundtrack to be in a certain way, I just want to keep it as it is... I don't want to put any kinds of modifications in terms of audibility... I don't want to alter the audio itself... The only thing I'm sort of modifying here is just ...

It just can't be done... I mean, you could try to do a rough cut using the spectrogram to remove certain frequencies, but that's not efficient either...
This is how I found the soundtrack to be and I'll keep it as it is...

Well, that noise in the intro is just there... I can't do much about it...
I personally use foobar2000... I create a playlist of all the segments and I can rearrange them quite quickly and easily...
I also can have a quick listen...
I think it's more efficient...

The 'clicking' noises in the PS2 version are just there... In the PS2 version each chunk/loop has a very small 'hole' of silence at the beginning and at the end... That's why you can hear those clicks... This doesn't happen in the GC version... Here's an evident example: https://scontent-mxp1-1.xx.f...

I can't do much about the noise... It's the ADPCM compression that does that... :( I've been ripping many PS2 soundtracks that used ADPCM audio and when mid or hi frequencies show up there's always noise with them... The GC version was actually at 22050Hz at the beginning, but for some reason the de...

Try this one instead...

This is an MP3 preview, but I worked exclusively in WAV lossless

I've just finished the "Area 52" PS2 theme with all the sequences played once in order...
In the order there are also the unused ones

There's a slight cut every chunk... Which tools did you use?

Anyway, thanks to you and Drolpiraat I now have both the PS2 and the GC version sequences in order... It will be a joke to concatenate them
I'll do them separately... I'll do the GC version and the PS2 version...

Wow, this thread is getting intense :P I just tried placing the contents of 'r3_ps2' and 'ra_ps2' as said in the 'readme.txt' file and followed the instructions, but both didn't work. The Rayman Arena PS2 script works here and it did for TheMygoshi as well (check the extr/M_* when it's done, those ...

I love this soundtrack too
Anyway, I'll start working on it right now... I should be able to finish everything in 8-9 days roughly...

Yeah, now I noticed some differences... You know what? I'll do this: I'll compare the PS2 versions and the GC version by visualizing in parallel with Audition both versions and see if can spot some more differences with the spectrogram (that is really helpful and makes you notice differences that yo...

The PS2 version and the GC version don't have any differences on the Area 52 main theme... And also, never convert tracks to MP3 or OGG if you're still working on them... Keep them into a lossless format until you make sure you have finished the work... By the way, the noise above 11025Hz can be eas...

Well, this is what I was thinking about: In the GC version all the loops can already be extracted in order and they match with the ones that you can hear in the PS2 version... The PS2 version has some extra unused sequences... So what I want to do is this: 1) Taking the already ordered loops of the ...

This is the reason why I wanted to check the GC version... I used the Rayman Arena GC script to extract the audio from the 'tribe.hst' as you told me to do, so you don't have to send me the soundtrack in FLAC or WAV. And as I expected, this is the result I got: GC version: https://scontent-mxp1-1.xx...

Is the file called 'tribe.hst' in the GC version? How did you manage to rip the audio from there?

I'm interested in everything you can give me
I mean, if I gather all the sequences, then I'll be able to have a complete version of the soundtrack I can work on...

How are the sequences stored in the GC version? Is there a DATA.HST file as well? If yes, can you just rip every single sequence and convert it to FLAC without worrying about wether or not the sequences you're looking for are in there?

Anyway, if you want I can work on both versions...
If you send me all the individual loops/chunks in FLAC lossless format, I would have the complete soundtrack and I would be able to work on both of them

Yeah, it sounds a bit better than the PS2 version
