I have never seen a "non-MP3 transcoded" version of this shared online before, and wanted to remedy that disappointing situation.
I used a tool to extract the music from a single large file. The extracted music was wav, proper 16 bit (not 4bit Adpcm), but unfortunately only had a sampling rate of 22KHz, so all frequencies above 11KHz are absent. The music certainly ain't going to win the Loudness War; only 1 track (Cathedral) has a peak near 0 Dbfs; the rest are very quiet. Another thing to note is that most of the music is designed to loop and thus lacks a defined start and end (no fades). I might try remastering it because of these shortcomings.
I converted the files to Flac in order to save space, and then added some Tags. No alterations were made to the actual music data.

REQUEST: Is anyone able to share a copy of the msuic from the CD release of Ultima IX (Original Music from Ultima IX: Ascension)? All I can unearth online is a low bitrate MP3 rip; a lossless upgrade would be awesome. Also, does anyone have the music from Ultima X: Odyssey? The game was cancelled, but the music had already been recorded, and was leaked online in lossless 8 years agon on MegaUpload. Of course MegaUpload was taken down by the Feds soon after, and the music is gone :(
