A little early but whatever.

Kid Icarus Uprising Soundtrack at Club Nintendo -- Andriasang.com (http://andriasang.com/con0ar/)

JP Club Nintendo is giving away a OST.

Dunno if the European and American one's will so may as well request it.

Seconded

Thirded or a game rip please

Fourth...ed.

Me too ! I think Nintendo is releasing the OST today for japanase people.

I live in Japan, but I don't have a DS so I'm not going to buy the game just to get the soundtrack. I hope someone ups it for us :)

Bump

I second this request I've been playing the game for a few hours now and its a really good soundtrack.

Also I know would like to point you guys here apparently someone has a few songs already if you'd like to hear them now. Kid Icarus Uprising - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=3EA374CCCB033FC1)[COLOR="Silver"]

second this too!

I heard Motoi Sakuraba also contributed on this game? If so, it's interesting.... oO

This soundtrack is epic. we need a rip or something.

It deserves to be listened to.

So, when will it be released?

I FIFTIETH this, this ost is DELICIOUS

There is someone recording pieces: supershadowheroE3 - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/user/supershadowheroE3/videos)

Music/sound credits from the in-game staff roll: Kid Icarus Uprising - Staff Credits (Gameplay Footage) - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhKVGVM95W0)
Music Composition: Motoi Sakuraba, Yuzo Koshiro, Masafumi Takada, Noriyuki Iwadare, Takahiro Nishi
Recording Support: Yasunori Mitsuda
Arrangement: Natsumi Kameoka
Sound Effects: Junya Kuroda, Saki Kasuga, Etsuko Shimada, Hideaki Kuroda

Can't find it... It's on the French eBay but for more than 50 €...

This score is alarmingly good - even Sakuraba's pieces! I'm really, really looking forward to this release - I do hope that somebody manages to dig it out and share it. Not being Japanese or a gamer, my chances of hearing it otherwise are basically zero.

I'm this "chain" too. I'm in, i'm sixtieth

I'm this "chain" too. I'm in, i'm sixtieth

THE FIGHT IS ON!

I want this soundtrack so bad. It's about $70 on ebay, and I'm really really tempted at this point. I'd much prefer an official place to purchase it, but Nintendo's sheer lack of effort to get it over here is making it even more tempting... But this soundtrack... My God... It's fantastic.

I'm really enjoying this soundtrack. Since it's not available here in the US I hope someone from abroad rips and shares it. I need it!

Did everyone forget how to do gamerips? People that have been ripping them off ShitTube have been encoding these awfully. I want 320kbps VBR or nothing, and considering it's a click away from another option, what's the hitch... Just ordered the game and have considered ripping it myself since these others sounds awful.

I'm sorry for that :( I also uploaded some tracks on YT but they sound not very good...

Sorry for the aggressive tone but it's quite clear a lot of people want this gamerip. Just use a good jack plug input into a microphone port and save at 320kbps VBR MP3 or FLAC I guess?

wow that's quite a prominent cast of composers! I'm curious about the music and HOPEFULLY they will release and OST!!

I have a download link to 23 tracks ripped from the game. The quality isn't perfect, but it's quite good. I don't take any credit for the rip. A Youtube user provided me with the link. Don't worry, the files aren't recordings from Youtube videos; it's much better quality than that. If anyone is interested in the link just PM me.

Just so others new to this forum can see:

WE HAVE ALREADY GOT LOW QUALITY YOUTUBE RIPS OF SOME OF THESE TRACKS, WE ARE ONLY INTERESTED IN HQ RIPS!!!

Please stop posting the same stuff over and over.

My game just shipped so If we're really struggling and noone manages to obtain the OST by a few days I will rip the music after unlocking it. I'm a bit tired of getting email notifications to say that someone else has reuploaded a video previously uploaded, then downloaded and converted destroying the quality more.

EDIT: Another thing, don't just say you have a download link and make people contact you, post the link.

I find it hilarious that you talk about "HQ rips", saying you don't want rips from youtube videos, while at the same time ignoring the fact that skitch clearly said that the tracks he has AREN'T youtube rips, and were simply given to him by a youtube user. Way to derp, man.

The last part of your post is valid though. He should just post the link, unless the guy who gave him that link told him explictly to NOT post it anywhere public.

Herp.

I see you've got your boxing gloves on, stop. The Youtube rip example was just that, low quality rips of any kind have been repeatedly posted here since this thread opened. I'll unsubscribe if needs be, but I was just trying to organise these shenanigans.

Welp, it's just that you quoted his post and considering what you wrote, it looked like you didn't read it properly. Sorry if I offended you, mang.

Merely annoyed by the amount of suspiciously low post count members coming in and saying HEY I GOT THESE LINKS FROM MY UNCLE AT NINTENDO PM ME IF YOU WANT THEM, JUST CLICK THIS LINK: www.spywareremover.com/XXX

With respect, it is possible to "organise these shenanigans" without yelling randomly at people who, regardless of whether they can actually provide, are only trying to help.

I'd agree that this "PM me for links" stuff is irritating, but the chap may have his reasons. It's certainly not grounds to assume he's a troll and launch a full on assault.

Stranger things have happened in this world; can we keep an open mind and hold back the abuse for people we know deserve it? ;)

Wow. Sorry, I'm just trying to share something that I found with everyone that wants it. Like all of you, I'm sure, I've been on Google everyday trying to find a copy of either the official 25-track OST or a good game rip. I stumbled upon a Youtube user that had quite a few videos of tracks from the game and I noticed that someone had a posted a comment on one of the videos requesting a download link for the tracks. The Youtube user told him to PM him for it. I did the same and then posted that I had found that on here. So, anyway, as I said above, these aren't converted MP3s of the Youtube videos, they are decent quality files ripped from the game itself. I'll post the link to the files for you guys and a link to the above mentioned video where I saw that original comment concerning the link to the download.

The files I posted aren't the complete soundtrack, so I and everyone else would really appreciate a full game rip if you do get the time to do it! Thanks ahead of time!

P.S. The reason I didn't post the link publicly is because I was given the link directly by someone and not via a search engine. I doubt he'll mind that I posted it here, but I just thought better of it at first.

i'm no expert but as far i know ripping the tracks from the game is not possible because they are encripted and the 3DS has yet to be hacked

I am merely interested in the OST that the JP Club Nintendo offers, Ripping music from Uprising directly is currently an impossibility.

MOTHERFUCKER!

Really, even after a year since its release? Ugh...you see, I don't really care THAT much about Kid Icarus Uprising's soundtrack, but I am EXTREMELY anxious for Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance's music. I really hope that's not true, though if it is, I GUESS I could wait until April 18th when the official soundtrack for KH3D is released. Still, I've been coming on to these forums for well over half a decade now, and this sort of situation seems entirely unprecedented to me.

I am merely interested in the OST that the JP Club Nintendo offers, Ripping music from Uprising directly is currently an impossibility.

This is exactly what I want. It's pretty surprising no one in the world has ripped this yet. Apparently it's showing up on eBay and the like. Someone had to have ripped it??

Hello guys, first post here!
(sort of, the registration/account validation thing took 3 days before I'va been able to post -and my previous posts in this thread never landed here- :/)

A little history about myself: I'm in VG music for years now, first on vgmp3, then and still on gamingforce, and finally taking some time here as ffshrine is probably the largest VG music loving community.
I don't consider myself a good riper, as I don't have many music/sound editing knowledge, good capturing hardware etc... But I usually love early rips for game franchises which I love traditionnals themes. Lately, I've done some 3DS sample rips that nearly noone found interesting (Pilotwings Resort and Starfox 64 3D, that finally both came out in an official CD in the japanese Club Nintendo) :)

So I'm VERY surprised there is still nothing worth downloading (except those atrocious links from guys who think youtube is made for music upload) about Kid Icarus. Maybe people are lazy because a CD will also be released by Nintendo?
Anyway, I've done this preliminary rip just for you and me. I just ripped some tracks I like, mainly themes remixes from the first Kid Icarus. I hope you will enjoy it and I hope I made it with a decent ripping quality!
Direct download: click (zip, 40MB) (http://www.vanlancker.fr/files/Kid_Icarus_Uprising_-_Preliminary_Rip.zip) <- I think I can let it sometimes but I will likely be cut it down in a few weeks, sorry (personnal server)!

Listening to it now, the best we've gotten so far, THANK YOU.

It's impossible for anyone to have ripped the OST as the Japanese aren't getting it until mid/late April, so we've still got a few weeks until any rip shows up for the official OST. As for them appearing on eBay, they're just merely pre-orders for us from the Japanese sellers.

Hey Everyone so i have ripped a buch of songs from the game and they are pretty decent quality So everyone should check them out. I have been having some problems with the tracks suddenly skipping mid-song and i have done my best to correct it. So i would like some feedback of how i did and if its good i may rip the full thing. Here is the link Kid Icarus_ Uprising Gamerip.zip (http://www.mediafire.com/?vqu5r6x3q5kcw4c)

Thanks. What quality is this rip?

It varies on a track-by-track basis between ear-splittingly dreadful and reasonably good.

I'd rip it but I can't afford the game (though I reserved it). Please someone share a rip of the disc or a gamerip!

First, to those who ripped the music, I just want to say "Thank you very much!"

Second, I'm a bit curious. I have heard in the past that these sorts of files that come from the 3DS are AES-encrypted, which is a government standard--meaning effectively that they can't be broken (e.g. the amount of computation time required for a brute-force attack would be something like greater than the age of the universe, or something really crazy along those lines). Thus, no one expected rips to be available until like 10 years after the release of the 3DS when some hacker finally figures SOME sort of "trick" out. So it's interesting that we have 3DS rips here. Not that I'm complaining, nor am I asking for the specifics, but I'm just wondering why this was so easy to do when I heard that it was ridiculously hard. Again, I don't need details, but I would like some sort of idea. As it stands, I haven't downloaded thse files and I'm a bit "suspicious" about them, to be perfectly honest.

They've been using Jack plugs.

Perhaps I'm missing something here, but in order to play the game the files must be decrypted. Breaking encryption without a key is tantamount to impossible (in a broad sense) but this is something different. It is a case of discovering the key; finding out how to pull it off the cartridge. That's only a matter of time, surely?

Probably the same thing as BluRay AACS decryption. Once you have the necessary keys, decryption is an easy task. Getting/computing/reverse engineering the keys, that's the hard part.

BD encryption was initially broken by writing some code that sniffed around waiting for a player to decrypt prior to playback and then pulled the key straight out of memory, if memory serves. It's a wonderful weakness with all this encryption; somewhere in all that mess is the decryption key 100% of the time, otherwise you have a disc full of completely useless data. It becomes not an issue of breaking the encryption, but discovering where they've hidden the key in the inevitable torrent of obfuscation. That's what hackers are good at. :)

This no longer works though and more important, BD encryption was never really broken. You still need a valid/non-revoked host certificate to authenticate with the drive (safe one which has a firmware bug and lets you read the VID "for free") and the processing keys for the respective AACS "version".

And I only know of three host certificates that got leaked: The PowerDVD7 one, the one coming with the original aacskeys and a PS3 one. I think all of these have been revoked so far.

EDIT: I'm aware of the bus sniffing method using dumpvid, but that only yields the VID and still leaves you with the AACS processing keys problem.

Oh...

How on earth does present BD ripping work, then?

No idea. All such tools are proprietary. But my guess is that Slysoft (AnyDVD HD dev) has some non-revoked certificates that they use for decryption. AFAIK you don't need the host certificate and the processing keys on the local machine, so you could just offload this computation onto a dedicated server on the net. Which keep reverse engineers away from the keys (since they're simply not in the program binary). And since keys don't get leaked publicly the AACS guys can't revoke anything (they wouldn't know what to revoke). The only thing you need on the local machine is the VUK (volume unique key). But the VUK only works with the corresponding BD, it doesn't help you at all for decrypting other media.

Now this still leaves the question where they got the host certificate from initially? Reverse engineering from a common player software? Well, as long as they keep the key to themself we will never know.
Same question applies to the processing keys.

Glad to see that you're going to provide a .zip file so that we don't have to download the videos from Youtube. Thanks ShadowHero.

Hey guys I'm the guy who's been doing the music ripping for the past few days. I use .wav format for all my songs and plan to upload everything into one convenient .zip when I'm done. If you want an example of my quality here's the link the one song I've got up.

GET TO IT!

That brief interlude may have been off topic, but at least nobody got insulted or yelled at in the process.

Doesn't the game have a Sound Test feature?

Doesn't the game have a Sound Test feature?

Yup, it does. It's how these rips are gotten.


That brief interlude may have been off topic, but at least nobody got insulted or yelled at in the process.

You keep throwing that word around like primrose, nobody is yelling. We're all typing quite diligently.

I don't think my use of a mixed metaphor should really distract from the basic thrust of what I said; it is not necessary to act in an offensive manner - unless you're sufficiently unsophisticated that rudeness is the only way to get your point across. I do not think that about you, so I do not understand why you have to make such aggressive responses in this thread; some monumentally terrible rips have passed by, there's no doubt about that. It is, however, hardly likely to encourage others to make the effort when they see such harshness.

On another point; diligence is not related to good manners and it is possible to practice both at the same time. :)

Yeah nice try, but bloating your sentences doesn't change the fact that my text doesn't have the capacity to yell. NOT EVEN LIKE THIS

Ugh...

...just shut up and take the good quality rips, you dolts. :/ You're making a mess of this thread with drama and trolling.

To the rippers: thank you for the rips!

.

Just in case you guys haven't seen this separate thread, someone posted what appears to be a complete rip (66 tracks) of the soundtrack from the game (not the official OST sampler that hasn't yet surfaced). From the comments it seems like it's good quality too. I'm downloading it now and will see for myself how it sounds :)

P.S. You don't have to download every track individually as it may first appear. Scroll down to the bottom and you'll find 4 separate folders that you can use to download in bulk.

Okay, so the rip I posted a link to above is not perfect in terms of sound quality. I didn't expect it to be. But, it's definitely listenable, and in terms of completeness, it's the best we've seen so far. It's a least a good holdover until either someone figures out a way to do such a complete rip in better quality or Nintendo releases a proper full OST for the game. Though, for the time being I'd be happy with just the special selection CD that should pop up sometime soon.

So where are we on FLACs?

Okay so here's the deal: I finally was able to afford the game, and I must say, this is THE BEST VG SOUNDTRACK EVER!
I am going to make a line-in gamerip in FLAC using the sound test (even if someone else does it first, my version will surface in this thread.), but I have six issues I must address.
1. I will first finish my current project.
2. I need to beat the game and unlock all of the music first, which could take a while.
3. I need an answer to the following: Since the 3DS's Surround Sound setting is virtual surround (to my knowledge), the only difference between it and Stereo is likely a more atmospheric sound (which is good). On the other hand, the Surround setting might be actual 5.1 (or Dolby PL2) when outputting through the headphone jack, so Stereo might be a better choice. I can only provide you with the sound in Stereo, and native Stereo sounds way better than Surround mixed down to Stereo.
So what do you prefer, Stereo or Surround?
4. I'd probably be giving each song two full loops, then a ten second fade, or two loops + 5 seconds, + a 5 second fade. (or whatever you guys think).
5. I would do all recording at the 3DS's medium volume (or my PC's input volume on medium... Which volume settings make there be less white noise and humming?). This would prevent clipping, and would be done all at once to ensure that all tracks are at the same RMS level without amplification, resulting in no degradation upon any of the audio signal.
6. I'd be releasing FLAC first, then MP3 (if necessary), then whatever else, such as M4A (as it goes up to 512 kbps, which is supported by everything that supports M4A, even if it says it only supports up to 320).
Good thing Masahiro Sakurai always puts a Sound Test in his Games! I'll be doing this for his next pair of games as well... (You can hold me to that statement.)
BTW, nice job to the poster preceding me.

Thank you, link28469! Me personally, I would be satisfied with stereo mp3's.
Cheers, Frank

Me too! Make sure the 3DS is at full volume though to avoid excess white noise. Thank you so much for doing this!

3DS "Surround Sound" is a poor digital effect applied to STEREO source material. The tracks should be output in NATIVE STEREO and nothing more. If people want to destroy the music with crummy audio filters, they can do so independently.

Very much looking forward to this rip - good luck and thank you.

Very much looking forward to this rip - good luck and thank you.Good, I was hoping Stereo was the setting to go with. So you're sure about the 3DS volume? (You don't want clipping, trust me.) All I need to know now is what to set PC input volume to. I'm making good progress in the game.
PM me for friend code!


EDIT: I've been unlocking the music, but does anyone know the total amount of songs? (I'd extract the music from the .3ds file if I knew how) Also, we need the OST from Japanese Club Nintendo, as it has higher quality versions of the songs (as noted by Sakurai), and probably has the only SFX-free version of the title screen theme.

Than you so much, link28469! I've been searching for a KIU OST for almost a month now! I was wondering, though: are you doing all of the songs, including the 3ds home menu sound? And what if there are some songs in the game that aren't featured in the sound test?

I was just going to answer your question when I started reading your post (you know, before reading that far into your post). Anyway, yes, but I'm going to record it from that one time it plays in the game (I won't spoil anything), thus avoiding Home Menu sounds. Likewise, I'll get the Orne and Reaper themes, and at least 5 others. I have one problem, though: I've but three more songs to unlock, yet they're the hardest (It ain't easy defeating a boss on intensity 5.0 with full health).

Also I want to use the higher quality versions of the songs, located in the OST from Japanese Club Nintendo, which might have the only SFX-free version of the title screen theme. For some reason, though, nobody got their CD's yet. If I could register to Japanese Club Nintendo, I'd get it myself. If I had enough money, I'd buy the one off ebay.

Will you upload a simple MP3 version as well as the FLAC version when you have completed it? I'd appreciate it.

Will you upload a simple MP3 version as well as the FLAC version when you have completed it? I'd appreciate it.

Yes, of course. An MP3 version only takes a few minutes to create (once everything is recorded).

Thank you. I can't wait to pick it up. Please put it on a download site that is easy to navigate and doesn't have like 8 "download here"'s.:P

Thank you. I can't wait to pick it up. Please put it on a download site that is easy to navigate and doesn't have like 8 "download here"'s.:P
I'm putting it on MediaFire first, as I have much less problems with uploading when it's with them. Then I can put it somewhere else (like my website)...
Keep in mind it isn't done yet. I'm gonna see which of my PCs has a better sound card now.

Can't wait for this :)

So is the CD not out? Even if it's 10 tracks I'm tired of listening to game quality.

So is the CD not out? Even if it's 10 tracks I'm tired of listening to game quality.

I guess Nintendo still needs to ship them to people. They are on ebay, though. No Shriners or people that share have gotten there hands on it yet. Also, it's 25 tracks.

IMPORTANT!!!
Does anyone remember if there was a jingle or anything for completing boss battles?
Also, I know what to do with the 3DS's volume, but should I put the PC volume at medium and adjust the input volume in Audacity? Or should I put it at medium in audacity, and adjust the PC volume?

[EDIT] So I wanted to do this on my Win7 PC, but apparently it's too stupid. It won't accept the line-in, even though I spent hours making sure everything was set up correctly. It won't even work through XP Mode!
I think my older pc has a better sound card anyway...

Yes, there's a jingle for completing Boss Battles.

This should be of great help to you if you are still trying to unlock music. It's a list of ALL treasure hunts.

Awesome, but there's one missing on that site (and I emailed the guy): The one for clearing chapter 3 in 13 minutes.
Yes, there's a jingle for completing Boss Battles.

Does it appear anywhere else in-game? Hoprefully it does, as I don't want to have to go through all that shit again...

BTW, Guess who just unlocked all of the music? For some reason, I have the 3DS volume, Line-in volume, and in-game volume at max, but the waveforms are looking a little small. (I guess the 3DS is not as loud as I thought. Though back when I recorded audio from Nintendo Video on the 3DS, it was clipping... Hmmm...)
It's interesting how I cannot mute the SFX or Voices from the Opening, but I can from the How To Play videos.

link28469: I'm really looking forward to your rip. I check this forum almost daily to see how you're coming along with it. Thanks for all the care you're taking to make the sound quality as high as possible too. I can't wait for the link! Keep up the great work!

That Achievement tracker really helped me out. Thank you. lol

And the music, I believe it's just the victory theme from multiplayer. I'll have to complete it again and see.

Afternoon, I've been lurking on here for many moons, seeking out OSTs, just thought I would point out that a few Youtube vids have appeared claiming to be (and sounding like they could well be) from the Soundtrack CD so hopefully that will be up on the net soon. I am desperate to get hold of it but all the Mediafire links from the Youtube user have all ready been taken down. Keep your eyes peeled!.

I got over 2k of stars in my Club Nintendo account, really want the soundtrack here but I bet if they did release it they would charge around 4.5k worth :( oh well back to the lurking, perhaps I will see some of you at Distant Worlds London in November, bye.

Well they'll be putting up new rewards in 2 days, can only hope that the CD is one of the rewards. I know I have enough coins to get it.

What country are you in? we get stars 200 - 250 per title and CDs are 2000 - 4850 each. the CD is 400 points in Japan isn't it? how many games is that?.

I'm in Michigan. And we get 30-50 coins per title, and a extra 10 if we reserved it, and another 10 coins for completing a survey on the game we bought.

Also.

I was WRONG

The music when you beat Boss Battles is a new track.

Or, at least, I never heard it anywhere else.

How do they know if you reserved it?

We get little scratch off panel things in the games, we go online and enter the code, we sometimes get the odd survey they give you 50 stars a time, I think we get 1000 for a wii and half that for a handheld.never had any extra given for reserving anything

Lol, your reward system seems to be much larger than ours.

I can't seem to beat Boss Battles anymore. I keep failing against the second-to-last boss. And that's on Easy! Don't worry, though. BTW, I've over 100 coins, but I hate to say that I doubt we'll get the CD. You can, however, email them about it. I've sent emails to Reggie and Aonuma before, and Nintendo will redirect it to the person for you (even to Japan, as Aonuma responded, though it was a translation of course). Don't expect a response, but they do actually read their emails. When they say that the 50,000 OoT 3D CDs had such high demand, NOA delivered another 100,000 for the U.S.

A good 5 star weapon should be able to clobber that mode. Raptor Claws or Magnus Club perhaps.

EDIT: Nevermind, those are melee. I forgot about that.
Also, since I'm gonna have to amplify these tracks, should I use 24-bit for recording? That's what I've done so far...

I hate Club Nintendo Japan for not sharing any CDs with us, and I wish they had made a 2-disc version of the KIU OST, so there would be more songs. The SMG 2 OST had two discs...

Whatever works to make it sound as good as it can be IMO. And yeah, I wish they just released the soundtrack here.-_- The game clearly got great reception, why not stop giving the Japanese more than us.>.>

Japan all ways gets the good stuff, I still can't work out if we (in Europe) are being ripped off or not, I don't know how many points they get for things.

Just looking at the US club Nintendo, you got better stuff then us, the Hanafuda cards are 800, I paid 2500 for mine, I think our stuff is cheaper not sure?. is it 30 coins you get per game?.

Anyway if the Japanese do spread it around they will call it shin hikari shinwa palutena no kagami saundotorakku (probably).

But probably not in Romaji... Most of it is recorded now. And we get 30 coins per DS/3DS game, and 50 per Wii title (they should give us 40 for 3DS games)

They do if we reserve it/do a survey on the games.

Yes but I mean that we should initially get 10 more, considering that first-party Wii games are ~$50/50 points, and DS games are ~$30/30 points, yet 3DS games are ~$40/30 points.

Guess they still just black & white it and consider it to just be a handheld game so it get's a handheld coinage.

Well it should be linked to RRP. at the moment it's all 250 unless it's over a year old (I think) then it's 200. obviously we only get surveys on the new stuff so some new titles such as Xeno give you 300. the RRP of KIU and most other 3DS titles are 39.99 going down to 34.99, most Wii titles are 29.99+ with a few exceptions and most DS are 19.99 -29.99 so I think it really should be about RRP.

I'd also like to see more gifts and less bullshit, Club Nintendo is full of ringtones and wallpapers, things they could give us for free when registering titles, instead we get bullshit like the crappy looking coin collection if you register the big 3 Wii RPGs and the Xeno soundtrack offer was a total mess, it was broken for ages and could only be downloaded by particular PC programs (which they didn't say you had to google to find that out).

Plus they never reply to emails about anything.

Has anyone got a link to the OST not on a cloud site? they don't like my old Linux browser so I can't use them.

OK, so this is going really well. I recorded nearly everything, but I must warn you: There may be a few songs with a little glitch or two (from CPU lag; they sound like a spit-second of silence). As I usually do with recordings, any imperfect files will be updated, so don't worry - JUST MAKE SURE YOU TELL ME ABOUT THESE, SO I CAN FIX THEM!. Also, I am having trouble getting the Reaper song without SFX from the Reapettes (the Reaper's song counts as SFX, so I can't just mute the sounds).

DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THE JINGLE AFTER BOSS BATTLES IS SFX? One way to tell, is If other music plays during it. Do any sounds play during it? I don't want to have to go through every boss multiple times to find out, so hopefully I can get an answer before I start.
Keep in mind I still have to cut and export all of the songs.

EDIT: Nevermind on the last question. It was a song (not SFX). I got it.
And as far as those "glitches" are concerned, I've only noticed one being present: Ch. 8: The Space Pirate Ship.

EDIT: I just fixed that glitch (not by editing, but by re-recording). Also fixed the menu theme.

You can listen to samples of the OST in the link above, I just found it. Click on the pics above the player to change the song. If anyone can record these to mp3/FLAC and release as a sampler, I love you.

If you want to download them, their urls are http://www.nintendo.co.jp/3ds/akdj/_flv/musicXX.flv whereas XX is replaced by a number between 01 and 11.
It seems that Nintendo stores their files in addresses that are of an obvious format.

I'm in the process of doing so now.

-- 5 PM
I have them recorded, and am now adding titles.

10 is part of Ch. 15: Mysterious Invaders, and 11 is Ch. 19: The Lightning Chariot. Only #10 is Aurum.
These are on the CD, which has been ripped, BTW.
You should download the CD (Thread 113505).

My computer is dumb... I'm not hearing it in 15... I've played 15-17 at least 3 times each. I haven't checked 19.

Thanks for the CD rip. BTW... does boredom annoy you greatly?

It is about 30 seconds into chapter 15.

Also, what do you mean by boredom annoying me? I am actually a pretty busy person (I was at college most of today), and don't ever get around to being bored (hence the reason I don't play many games aside from Zelda and a select few others). I'm the kind of person who likes to make things, and has a Start menu (XP) that doesn't fit on the screen. And I'm even busier with stuff unrelated to my computer (Don't get me started). Good music is a HUGE priority to me, and these forums are where it's at. I just check on the forums when I'm on my computer, regardless of what I'm doing on it. I also check every once in a while, or when I get the emails from the Shrine about subscribed threads with new posts.

Me.
"I see that Club Nintendo in Japan have a Soundtrack CD for Kid Icarus Uprising priced at 400 points. are there any plans to bring this item to the UK Club Nintendo? or even better to release it for sale in shops?."

Them.
"Nintendo has no official announcement about your query at this time."

I'm not seeing a no :D

I'm not seeing a no :DI'm surprised you didn't get a human response, as I always do. Even when I sent an email to Aonuma... Still, one thing they like is persuasion. Give them good reasons to weigh, if you want it.

Dammit, this was supposed to go on my previous post as an edit! I didn't want to make a whole new post!

I told you NOE are shit they hardly ever bother replying to anything. I don't know if its still the case but back in the GC days they only had like two members of staff dealing with online stuff as a side job and they took it in turns to use the terminal because only one PC was designated for the task.

Rather crappy when you consider they go to all the bother of sending inspectors from Germany to snoop around Dev offices before licensing them to use their mascot, yet they don't seem to think twice about giving the consumer a good level of service/feedback online. As illustrated by the fact they shut down all the forums because they couldn't be arsed to get dedicated mods to police them.

Not exactly. By boredom, I meant... nevermind. It just seems like you're always doing something with VGM music...

But, then again, I only check this thread and the Symphony of the Goddesses one...

But, then again, I only check this thread and the Symphony of the Goddesses one...Yeah, I kinda forgot the important part of my question, and said a bunch of other stuff. I meant to ask if you were referring to my projects, my large number of recent posts, or something else. I see what you mean, though. Funny thing is, those are mainly the only two things I'm doing now. HOWEVER, if you ever come accross any good music that needs ripping/recording, show it to me. If I like it a lot, I will be unable to stop myself from ripping it.

I'll be sure to do that.

Oh, and: Music sampler is done. Thanks for the locations of the last two. I hate ID3 writing. What's worse is that my CPU won't run any program files. I have to open a file associated with that program in order to run it.

Anyway, here's the link: Kid Icarus Uprising Music Sampler.zip (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ne2sd0ua2tlnqr7)

I'll be sure to do that.

Wait... just to reiterate... you ARE going to be recording the 3ds home menu theme, correct?

Wait... just to reiterate... you ARE going to be recording the 3ds home menu theme, correct?

Yes. Jus keep in mind that it plays in Solo mode as well, and the recording of it from Solo mode is better.t

Sounds good! I just find that theme very addictive!

If you can record the Nintendo Video theme as well I'd be thankful.lol Excited for the tracks to be ready.:P

Sure, why not. But it won't be part of this rip.

Just make it separate for me.xD

Sure thing. I wonder if Totaka's Song is anywhere in the menus, as he apparently composed most of their music.

It's a possibility. But to my understanding it's really just in games, not other stuff.lol

So here's the deal, guys. Though I've been very busy lately, I've managed to record and edit all of the music, except for one song. Now all that is left is encoding and uploading. There's one thing, though: That song is the SFX that plays when a Reaper spots you. I cannot seem to rip it without the Reapettes' SFX, so you'll have to deal with hearing that sound.

Sounds good! I absolutely can't wait...
I'll be sure to let you know if I've found a way around your predicament. (Even though I know I probably won't)

Fiiiiine by me.

I had to go back and apply some serious Noise Removal on the audio, so now I need to re-export everything. I'm not sure where the noise came from, but I got rid of most of it. There was no noticeable degradation on the audio signal, and it sounds reasonable now..
Just remember that it takes a while to process over 5 hours of music, even with two cores.

I thought you were Mr Audiophile Get-It-Right-The-First-Time-So-You-Don't-Have-To-Apply-NR-After-The-Event? ;)

Would you mind letting me hear the raw version, sans NR? Curious as to what this noise might be...

Yes, which is exactly why it's taking so long, as I had to start over from the unedited files.
I'm encoding now. The raw version is huge... I can give you a raw song or two, though. Basically, it was just a cross between a buzz and a hum. Luckily, it was of low volume and constant throughout the entire recording. I tweaked the NR settings until it sounded perfect, and I swear there was no degradation, whatsoever that is noticeable to your ears. I'll post an image of the spectrograms before and after for proof, once I have it uploaded. Note that the audio is noticeably so-so quality, but that's just the way the audio sounds in the game. As it was stored in the game in that quality, even a re-recording could not fix that. The quality of my FLACs (and even my MP3s) is noticeably better than the other rip in this thread, but I still must say that they did a good job.

EDIT: I'm uploading, but it's taking a WHILE. Instead of just putting as many files as I could in one archive and going on to the next, I split archives to .part1.rar, .part2.rar, etc., that way there are less files to download. Also, I'll be linking to a new thread, because that will be easier for other people to find, and because the post will be big and updated.

Get it here (Thread 113764)!

Wow! There's no way in hell I'd ever expect you to upload the whole thing raw...! :D

I was just wondering if you might perhaps let me hear any random track of your choice.

Either way, it sounds absolutely EXCELLENT.

Knowing what 3DS audio actually sounds like, I honestly doubt it would get much better than this until somebody figures out how to pull the audio files directly off the cartridge... and even then, the improvements would be marginal at best.

I will admit that I thought that the presence of the official album would make your rip obsolete before it even arrived... but I'm flabbergasted and ANNOYED at how the album seems to deliberately omit the best music. It needed to be a two disc set.

Therefore, your work was most definitely NOT in vain; it's simply a necessity to enjoy this score.

Thank you again. :)

PS - Do you want any help with uploading, mirrors, etc? I see you're having bother with the MP3 version. I'd quite happily mirror an MP3 encode for you. :)

Yes, I'll give you one song + the leading and trailing silence. I think track 2 would be good, as you can hear the noise over the oboe part if I remember correctly.
I may ask for help, but I'm gonna try something first, as this is a problem I've had beferoe with .part2.rars and .part3.rars. If so, I may have to give it to you via torrent, though.
