Awesomeness! Thanks a bunch! ^_^

How improved are we talking? Any care to post a sample track?

The original Gamerip has sounds of the game in it, you know, engines and at some tracks environment sounds.

This one is clean.

Thank you very much, excellent quality rip.

I don't know where or how you got this, but thanks a lot!

Can someone upload this to a place that doesn't have 'full servers' that makes you unable to download it?

Edit: I finally got it downloading, I'll be hosting it on filefront as well when it's done!

No engine sounds, awesome, will DL when I get home again.

Yes, I'm curious, too!
How did this rip happen?
There's no sound test in this game, right?
How did the ripper manage to get around the engine sounds?

They're probably taken out of a Mario Kart DS Rom's data.

All right, the FileFront link for if the servers of Sendspace are full again: Here! (http://files.filefront.com/Mario+Kart+DSrar/;9923032;/fileinfo.html)

If so it'd be nice to know what tools were used to achieve this.

Neat; thanks!

Yup its taken directly from the rom and then read using a plugin and converted to mp3 in winamp.

That's fantastic!

I hope someone can utilize this technique to create a clean rip of the soundtrack to FFXII Revnant Wings, because that would also be fantastic.

Only problem with it is that it's not ordered and tagged fully.

Awesome regardless.

I definitely can't find a proper OST�
Either they have vehicle sounds from the game, either the tracks aren't re-looped. This one is the only one without game's sounds I found. But musics stop right at the end, without any second of relooping.

So does anyone have a MKDS OST without vehicle sounds, .mp3's, and at least 1-re looped tracks ? I'll probably request that in the Requests Forums since it seems that this thread is dead. Thanks.

Yeah playing back the music from the roms can have its benefits like surround sound ,

e.g used in Mario Kart wii :P Desert Stage

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?gozoaozihzm I used ogg since its 4 channel audio

Not that I heard the OST but its probably stereo if there ever was and not surround like the game has :P Tho only around 4 or so songs use surround sound the rest like most streamed audio on game systems uses just stereo.

Lol it's not the same music, on the Desert stage there is a different music which is played in the temple. Same for 3 or 4 other circuits. So it's not surround at all :P But where did you find that ? The 2 themes are well-synchronized and I'm really interested by the other tracks of the game in which there are 2, 3 or 4 alternate songs. I didn't find any .ogg OST from MKWii :o

Still searching for MKDS proper OST btw :P

They all come from the music ripped from the rom using known programs on the net.. Basically the plugin plays through winamp and if you want you can output to wave. Alot of DS, Dreamcast, Sega Saturn games have had their stremed or sequenced music ripped and playable with a plugin made for winamp. of course there are many more games not done yet..

hats where the maria kart ds rip came from and alot of other ds rips on this forum.. I just converted the wave to ogg myself actually.. The whole soundtracks of a game. e.g mario kart ds and many more game music can be only a few MB in size and playable through the winamp plugin found online if you search hard :P

Darn, I missed out on this. Can you please reupload so that I can get the cleaned OST of Mario Kart DS?

Ah, finally! The 'proper' MKDS ost is here => http://www.filefactory.com/file/96656d/n/Mario_Kart_DS_Original_Soundtrack_rar

I still don't understand why "Final Lap" musics aren't in it, since they've been ripped for MKWii or MKDD ost's for example. Does someone know where to find them ?

FINALLY a Mario Kart DS rip with no sound effects! I've been waiting YEARS for this! Thank you!
