NES Audio: Sunsoft Bass and Melodic Samples
A demonstration of how DPCM samples were used melodically on the NES.
Ripped from the Gremlins 2 nsf, you can experiment with the Sunsoft bass using this .fti file for famitracker. (sorry for the zshare link, i’ll replace this with a better home in the future)
Special thanks go to ~J-@Ð!~ for providing this handy DPCM frequency data chart. You can see just how much the intonation varies between the different speeds (pitches):
