I compared the XBOX360 and PS3 version and I didn’t notice a real difference regarding the music. Both versions uses the same format.
I’ll also check the PC version when it will be released.

It seems there are no track names. And it’s not as if the task of organization necessarily has to fall to you.
Hope not mate!
Both Xbox 360 and PS3 sound archive don’t contain track names and I didn’t play the game.
All files named like Batman Arkham City_01, Batman Arkham City_02…and sorted by size.
@NCFirebolt21, I’ll also check the PC version and hope it will contain track names.
I’ll update this thread, until then good listening 🙂

It won’ have any names. Uses WWise.
Ok, I’ll see that.
thanks for the share!
I’ve been going through the tracks and this is the impression I’ve been getting as well. Unfortunately, it would probably be a nightmare to manually mix-and-match everything…
That’s exactly what I did for Arkham Asylum. Each layer was separated so I had to compare gameplay vids and mix the right layers… took me hell load of time to compile it…
I’ll also check the PC version when it will be released.
Did you have the chance to check the PC version yet?
@Firebolt.
Yes it was pain but atleast it had filenames. Arkham City does not and the only reliable way is to sort by size or length.
I am working on this rip now and will upload the mixed/edited rip, if anyone wishes to add titles or do a custom ost then he/she may be welcome to. 🙂

Just came home and got the game! It’s 15 frickin’ gig! I’ll work on the OST only if I can… still doing POP2008…
Because I want to make the complete custom soundtrack to this.
i only see 3 downsides to this project:
1.lossy compression, therefore only decent soundquality and little room for transcoding
2.no tracknames, which makes it kinda hard to find certain tracks
3.biggest problem: wrong channel mapping
for reason 1 & 2, i am fully aware that its not the uploaders fault, problem is homemade by the developers. proper tagging has been done as it seemed reasonably.
as for 3:
the reason why it sounds odd is that the music is compiled with 5.1 surround sound. since normal soundsystems contains only 2 speakers and one subwoofer eventually, there are instruments missing that are mapped to channels other than the front channels. therefore the music sounds dull/thin or incomplete.
thats why i re-encoded the whole files to normal redbook standard, meaning:
5.1 surround -> 2 stereo
48kz -> 44,1khz
with 16bit depth
now it should sound much better and should be playable on portable players and hifi systems. there will be no quality loss. frequencies are capped anyway, they were never even close to touch the 48khz mark. additionally i converted them to a high quality bitrate to rule out any re-encoding errors.
again, i do not meant to bitch about this. just wanted to share this awesome soundtrack in best possible quality with you, since some of you were wondering about the sound.

files should be extracted with 7zip
i am not sure what you mean by layers. maybe it is just a different term you use instead of the term "channels" i prefer to use.
clearly the music files are compiled to 5 channels (layers in your speaking), but in one file. you can check it up with any decent audio creation application.
i know that there are some games out there that use a mix-together-on-the-fly music system, like mass effect for example. that way fewer music files are used (lower disk space needed) and music will change more smoothly and fluent according to the ingame situation. this is not the case in arkham city, as far as i know.
as i see to it, uploader did the right job in ripping the files to ogg. but then again missed the last step by joining the channels/layers to make them stereo in the end.
As of now, I’ve decided to start the complete score with my favourite theme from the game… BANE!!
LOL, the guy who made the original rip has scattered Bane’s theme across the 326 tracks! One layer is track 44, the other is 55, another is track 24… and I can’t find the 4th layer. Guys, are there 3 layers or 4 layers used to make the songs?
Once I’m done with each track individually I’ll post it onto my YouTube so you’ll can view my progress of it. 🙂

BTW i didn’t include banes theme in my rip because its already in past arkahm asylum rips so i saw no ned to include it. its the same thing anyway.

Yeah, but quality wise, the new one is better 🙂
I’m working on The Mystery Stalker’s theme now. There’s like 4 different layers to it… and the order has to be correct because I’m not mixing one layer over another… it’s a linear mix of parts… Just decided to watch a YouTube video for "Watcher In The Wings" and now mixing the song as I write this.
Now you’re gonna love me OJ. Azrael’s theme is up!
I’m gonna work on as many songs as I can and hopefully by 2012 the whole thing should be up!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-vLrDc5dIs
It hasn’t processed yet… When it does, give it a listen…
EDIT:
OJ, I think you should extract the music from the cutscenes, that way, I don’t get stuck for long with compiling this… I’ll have to play the game again just to be sure about the order…
Not your rip… the other guy’s rip…
1. Have a look at 11, 12, 29 and 50. Those are supposed to be the 4 layers, right? Well, one layer has horns and another has the exact same horns mixed with else from the same song… It’s alright, it just sounds the same.
2. Bane’s theme: what’s the difference between 278 and 305?
3. Main Theme: Between 01 and 05, is there something missing?
4. Did no. 85 have 4 layers or is it just one song? I know it’s a remix of the "Overworld Combat" track from Asylum but I wanted to re-make it in better quality… 🙁
So far, that’s all I know, other tracks I’ve sorted out and arranged them according to the official score album names for easier ID…

I shall be ripping this as i play the game, so will get all teh tracks as heard inthe game and be as complete as it can be! Hope that helps! some (Will be for PC though)
OK scoreman, if you’re doing a rip, please do a rip of the cutscene tracks. I’ve already begun work on the complete soundtrack. 3 songs are up in my Youtube channel. Links are above for the tracks. Thanks for your efforts, it is well appreciated and needed right now.
EDIT:
Can either of you, scoreman or OJ do a rip for the music used in the DLC maps of Catwoman, Nightwing and Robin if the music is different?
2. I will have to check.
3. Will check
4. One Layer only.
I will check the DLC’s
Also vgmstream will not convert the adx’s from the usm files, strange.

That’s precisely why I asked both you and scoreman to help me out. Otherwise I’m going to have to play the game with music only and record the custcene music with FRAPS…
OK cool, I found the layers to one of the Catwoman tracks "Sorry, Boys"… of course, it was on the official album so no loopwork for me… and I found the pickpocket stinger that plays when she tries to open the vault…
Blind Justice now up. Rooftop Rumble in the works… I don’t know if should make another variation to that courthouse song… :confused:

I can do both DSLC and Cutscenes… Alas, the cutscenes have SFX, although no dialogue.. its how it is in the game im afraid, even though i turned down all but music volumes.. you still get SFX in the cutscenes!
Or do you need me to take the reigns? 🙂
Or do you need me to take the reigns? 🙂
I only do my rips as i play them (not sure if that is streaming lol) not up with all teh jargon.. I simply play the game and record the music as i am playing it!
Well it pays no nevermind to be honest as i am doing a full rip regardless, so guys can go on and do what needs to be done 🙂 i will release mine once finished 🙂 – If you can get the cutscenes without SFX (if you can send me the raw files) then i can add them to my line in rip) 🙂
@firebolt
Found no music in the joker challenge map. Might be in the main score like catwomans.
Should be no problem now Firebolt. Just make sure to ignore looping.

OJ, can you send me the output of your conversions when you’re done?
Also, most puzzling, I reached Crime Alley last night and have been looking for the song that plays when Hugo Strange gives the whole "how does it feel, wayne?" monologue… can’t find it in the files… argh… maybe I need to search your files instead the other guys OJ…
And scoreman, I sort of recorded some of the streams with FRAPS with stuff I couldn’t extract for Asylum… And it didn’t come out that well… so I hope you can do a better job than I on that.

Oh… i found something interesting…
in the DLC files… in the Notepad file "CookedBanks_DLC_Carnival" there was something at the beginning called "Global_DLC_Carnival" and next line "Music_DLC_Carnival"… we need to find those files. It’s not in the WAD, that much I’ll tell you.

I will send you the outputted adx’s.
I will send you the outputted adx’s.
So the OGG’s you sent me (with all those weird numbers in the filenames) were not converted from the ADX’s? Because I didn’t keep the ADX’s, but I have the links in my inbox…
cutscenes will provide in a moment.

Batman: Arkham City Complete Soundtrack – Dial Z For Murder – YouTube (http://youtu.be/ElyZxnq0Muk)
Guys, I’d love comments on the vids as well… so if you’ll have accounts, I’d like the comments on there… the more comments and views on it, the more relevant it becomes on the search… I usually try the search after i enter all the tags and I’m not having any luck. I try my level best to get my video as the top result but because everyone’s had the game for 2 months now, I’m struggling with hits…
Anyway, glad you like my work so far Cody… gonna work "Joker’s Carnival" after this… actually, I don’t think that woudl serve as a good name because the Wayne Manor and Iceberg Lounge maps also use the same music… :confused: will stick with the Carnival name for timebeing…

Stereo channels contain the music and some sfx, so us audacity to sort and export the stereo channels. Other channels are redundant.
I’m talking about this track: Batman: Arkham City (OST) – Kitten with a Whip (Catwoman Theme) – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JS95Dv7nGY)
I’m particularly interested in the strings at the start.

The guy has just recorded his gameplay thru FRAPS. I have all the other tracks of his in WAV and I can tell you, he didn’t do any blinkin’ extraction. That’s what I’m doing. The best quality rip and the right mixing… but with the hardest effort. Believe me, if he decides to make a complete soundtrack… (and I did ask for his help on YT) I hope he knows what he’s doing.

Have you gotten the cutscenes yet firebolt?
Yes OJ, I got the cutscenes and I have to admit, excellent job on ripping them, but tbh, Rocksteady don’t know the difference between SFX volume and music volume… I expected to have absolutely no SFX with the cutscenes in this game… 🙁
Anyway, with any luck, if there are any layers of music similar to the ones in the cutscenes (like how I did for the Joker end boss cutscene) I maybe able to get rid of some SFX…
Scoreman, what is that the link to? Because YOUR LINK IS DEAD!!

How do I split the channels? Will Sony VEGAS help me out? Or do I have to use Audacity? Because I use GoldWave for all my mixing…
scoreman, cannot wait for the next CD! 🙂
Cool! And thx!
EDIT:
Scoreman, you do realise that there’s an official score album available, right? The first couple of tracks are on the official CD, and "Bruce Wayne, Captured" is SFX free on the album, called "A Monument to Your Failure"…
Will give the others a listen later…
EDIT 2:
Do hope you have the other songs in order, I can compile the actual complete soundtrack once I’m done listening to your rip…

Fully aware of the opening tracks of the official release and yes! apart from monument of failure, the rest of the tracks are not as heard as in the game (apart form themain menu theme)
‘Sorry Boys’ is missing the opening sequence, the first 26 seconds of the intro! Which mine has (SFX Free)
‘Have you got my location’ has missing instrumentation that is present in the game!
So really the only beneficial track is the monument to failure! track 🙂
I am almost done with Disc 2 so will make that avail to yourself once completed! But I am doing a complete too whereby all you will really gain from listening to mine is a track name (that i would have created) and a chronological order *as I play the game* which may not be as everyone plays it – AS they may do side quests different to mine!
I have also given to O.J. 4 extra tracks that I ripped from Ron Fish’ site from the game, that I will put on the tail end of the commercial release to make an Expanded release of the commercial and add as the last disc to my rip! along with any other tracks I find from Nick or Ron!
the 4 tracks are…..
Ras Al Ghul
Ras Al Ghul Hallucinations
The Mad Hatter
They Call Me Clayface (Just called Clayface Boss) on the site
‘Sorry Boys’ is missing the opening sequence, the first 26 seconds of the intro! Which mine has (SFX Free)

Awesome! At least you found Ron Fish’s site. Everytime i search for Arundel i get this WWI pilot who died recently… not the musician… 🙁
If you’re friends with him, please, I’m begging you, ask him to release the Asylum soundtrack songs on his site! Or even some of the cutscene tracks!
I believe that is what I mentioned i was going to go for 😉
Thanks so much for this but I noticed there were a lot of loops.
From the original Asylum game! Even Arkham City as well would be good 🙂
The first 27 seconds is not on the OST. That’s why I asked. The album version starts from 0:29 in the cutscene. And I’m making this as close to a Recording Sessions as possible, so I’m separating the cutscene from the combat track.

The cover I will be using for my edition of the soundtrack.
How far along are you?
How far along are you?
Trying to do the Solomon Grundy song atm. I seem to be missing a layer… argh… 🙁
If I fail at it, I go back to Joker’s Carnival.
They are all supposed to be 47 seconds in length and there’s also different layers from different songs which are 47 seconds each. 🙁
Listening to the YT rip a guy has posted with all the layers and trying to identify them.
And the "Sorry, Boys" thing, is included on your rip OJ. I just found it. They put both Album and gamerip versions in the files.
I’ve only found (from the other guys files) 124 & 125 are part of the same song for Solomon Grundy. No others… there are 4 layers in that song.
Can you send me what you have already for grundy so i can compare?
All I need to know is whether it is 3 or 4 layers + the ending. That’s it. Once that’s done, I’m uploading it!
This what your looking for?
theres just one long layer track that plays in the beginning, then the two shorter varaitions.

Yes, that’s the one! And thx 🙂
By the way, there’s 2 different songs for Solomon Grundy. One plays in the 1st half and the 2nd one plays when he gets revived again.
Batman: Arkham City Complete Soundtrack – Joker's Carnival – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_V57vBRl6ng&hd=1)
I tend to do my rips, not so much with looks, as i rip from the game as i play, no looping, no accessing layers… What i do is rip themusic from the game whilst playing then edit it in Audition after. The length of the tracks are reminiscent to the gamplay and edited for a more cinematic approach!! If you prefer no looping, then getting the music as The VGM Legacy do it, is your best bet 🙂
I’m actually going to need your rip to finish mine. I’m counting on you for that. Now I have to replay the whole frickin’ game on Normal difficulty (both New Game and New Game+ modes) because I beat the game on Easy and didn’t unlock New Game+. 🙁
Not happy about it…
Joker’s Carnival is uploaded… Solomon Grundy… still working on it… I’m might do the Zsasz music since it’s recycled from Asylum…
With Raziel’s rip… have a look at tracks 74 and 146. One layer is 30 seconds.
"I Think You Should Do As He Says" now finished, but won’t be uploaded due to UMG content present in it. The whole mix comes up to 7:30 seconds.

Merry Christmas guys.
I will play through the game & listen to this rip and try my best to name the tracks. If I take my time and/or am not 100% accurate (one or both of which will probably happen), please do not be harsh on me as I’d imagine there’s lots of tracks & a long game to play through. I just have to wait for it to come first. Ordered regular, as it non collector’s edition for 360 since I bought the Bundles for Catwoman, Robin, Nightwing & the score from iTunes (didn’t care for Album) before ordering the game. Should be coming sometime next week.
If I should need help, I will ask for it.
For anyone who has listen to the score completely, is there anything at all, big or small, missing that can be found in the Album or this rip? Usually official releases miss something. Speaking of the rip, anyone who’s played the game completely including Catwoman, side missions, Challenge Maps, Riddler Campaigns, and everything else the game has, is this rip complete or does a custom OST have to be made?
Regardless if it is complete or not or how it sounds, appreciate the effort. Thanks 🙂
Asylum had GREAT music, no question. But City tops that IMO especially with the Main Title music that I think plays in the game during some fights.
Sampled the game a bit so I know little about it.

I have already done this, I am about 3 tracks from completion (i wont spoil it for you) But i am missing some Riddler Music and another side mission i have yet to complete. I have come up with about.
I have 162 tracks thus far of in game music totalling around 9 hours and 20 minutes of music – With the missing music i am waiting on getting, i guess there will be approx 10 hours total! – I have played some of the Map music, which has a different variant of the in-game music.
The Commercial release (iTunes) I would say benefits on 1 level only – It has 2 of the Cutscene pieces – I. A Monument to Your Failure & II. It’s Not Even Breakfast. The rest of the tracks are variants of the In-Game music – Mixes if you like! I have placed this as Disc 9 on my *Box Set* with the Various Artists album being Disc 10 and with the help of the Thread Starter and their layers from their rip, i will be painstakingly going through all the layers and making a single track layer (although this does not represent a true sound of the In-Game music either) as certain tracks meld together to make an original track!
I am sorry, but i do not understand you when you ask about the Rip being complete. I cannto vouch for NC’s rip,. although i am sure it will be well put together piece! Mine, on the other hand, Is complete by the terms of how the music plays in the game; there is no way of getting the cutscene music completely free of SFX – Apart from the 2 I have mentioned, in mine the remainder of the cutscenes; Albeit free of Dialogue, will have the Sound Effects… Which sometimes actually heightens the listening pleasure.
I am currently having custom made artwork designed by a good friend for my rip, so once I am happy with my rip and the artwork is complete, I will make a seperate thread to this one as this one seems to have been hijacked, slightly!
I like to think i am pretty hot with track titles.. I have named certain tracks with my rip to quotes from Burton’s Batman and Batman Returns! – I try not to rename my titles with the titles of the commercial release – as I like to be original! And sometimes, especially with this commercial and the names of the tracks, don’t always marry up with the section of the game the piece represents!
I hope to have my rip done and uploaded before you receive your game, so to be honest, unless you are planning on ripping it for personal use anyway, i would just play the game and enjoy it (as I intend to once i have finished) Don’t rip the game music for the sake of it! You ruin the game that way as you have to play the game without the voice and dialogue! and of course the gameplay consists of a specific fighting style, which i am sure you are aware of from the first game, where you build up hits and combos! Enjoy it!

Whoa! That’s awesome!
Really got it (Original Score) for my favorite song (so far right now) the Main Menu/Title track
What I meant was if every bit of music will be present. I understand about the cutscene music.
Hijacked how? I will not ask you to name names of those who hijacked it to prevent problems between members as there is NO NEED for that whatsoeever.
Interesting. But do they (Titles) fit the game?
I do not do rips. I was merely saying I was gonna download the rip the first uploader had (till I read the comments regarding how it sounds, but may just keep the Main Title track from his rip if I do download it as I want all versions of that song lol) & then go through the game while listening to his rip to identify the songs and name them. I have no intentions of ripping it as there are far better rippers than me and I have no problems admitting that. I hope to hear your & Firebolt’s finished product as I am sure they will greatly compliment the effort you two put into your respective rips.
I will enjoy the full game as I enjoyed sampling it as a friend’s house to get a a glimpse of what I’m in for. From what I hears and read…..longer than Asylum….long and more in-depth story…..Robin & Nightwing playable in Challenge Maps as well as Catwoman playable in story & challenge maps (bought them before ordering the game)…..Alfred…..alternate costumes (just bought that today)……many villains. I also read the entire game takes place in one night? WOW! What’s not to love? Also saw pics of the Bell Tower (a throwback to Burton’s 1989 Batman film) & cats surrounding Catwoman (a throwback to Batman Returns although in the game, she was ins costume while in Returns, she was not as she had not become Catwoman yet). No offensive to the voice work, I do wish other remembered voices returned…..it’s a given Kevin Conroy will be Batman & Hamill will be Joker, but Michelle as Selina, Elfrem as Alfred, etc and that vehicles (Batmobile, Batplane, Bat-boat, Bat-cycle being the 4 I’d wanna use personally for necessities & I think you can figure where those necessities are. Fire example: Bat-Boat in water, Plane in air……to chase villains and.or keep them from escaping you and.or the place) will be used in the game and & they’ll be times where you need to operate them. Perhaps in another game where that is needed as in Asylum & City, not needed during gameplay
To you & Firebolt: Cannot wait for the finished product and thank you for this endeavor!
@Firebolt: Heard what you uploaded on YT! Sounds excellent! Love to comment there honestly, but unfortunately do not have a YT account. But in all seriousness, not to suck up but what I heard is so great, I might get one just to comment on them.
That is All, Merry New Year!

Ok guys! You get to choose the album cover for the soundtrack! Which one do y’all want?
I like the first one.
Even I love the first one!
And Doublehex, I was following "protocol"… lol every DC animated movie has their format like that. And the Arkham logo was like that when I found the pic. Been dying to find the whole Arkham gargoyle concept without watermarks for a long time…
These are all the renders i have in HD…

The second one isn’t bad looking either though.
Thought I could help. Found these on Google Images
These two has him on the gargoyle like Firebolt wanted with the DC logo shrunk down to appropriate size. It’s just missing the composer’s names (same thing but first one is bigger size –
In the end though, doesn’t matter to me as in iTunes u can edit the cover & choose a different pic.

Like I said, I’ve scoured all thru Google just to find the pic I used in the first pic. The one I used is on the WB Australia site. The only watermark is that damn logo. Everything else has the company logos on ’em. Not what i want.
Yeah I have PS, i made both covers with it. 🙂
I’ll try to get rid of the logo on the first one and find a better logo to replace it.
Maybe you should give some thought into just getting rid of the logo and that’s it. Who’s gonna care if there isn’t a logo? In asking that, I’m referring to of course the DC Universe logo that’s presently there. Honestly, I think the cover arts that I have seen w/o logos (and I have seen some good ones) look pretty damn good without them.
both links been shot down.
