Title: How to extract a music from a rom?
Post by: Paprikarma on March 20, 2003, 06:44:27 pm

Hi all!

In fact, I really want to get musics from Air Gallet, but I don't know if it's possible to extract them.

Do someone have a solution for me? Maybe a link to download musics of this game or a small tutorial on how to extract music from a rom (if it's possible...

Thanks a lot!

Cya =)

Uhm...have you guys ever used the sound recorder that's built into Windows??  It's in StartMenu->Accessories->Entertainment.  This can be used to record any sounds that your computer soundcard makes, be it wave, CD player, midi, etc.

The best thing is to start your games in windowed mode (such as in Mame32) and hit record on the sound recorder.  Hit stop when you are done.  Simple.

Just remember the sound recorder has limitations in quality.  But game sound isn't much:)

Also one up, if there is a background song but foreground sound effects you will have fun extracting an individual sound.

AdvanceMame has built in audio and video recording features...

Depending on what you wanted you could isolate different sounds via the ~ tilde menu and decreasing volume of unwanted sound generators n' stuff...

hypothetically speaking of course - I haven't actually done it =P

I actually spilit my speaker cable(the one goes in your computer) and recorded some music via audio input.

Its like it records whatever music is playing on my computer using "NERO WAVE EDITOR" .

It works great and now why did I record any music?

I got sick of marvel vs capcom 2's fruity music and I recorded some old school street fighter and samurai music and now marvel vs capcom 2 plays better then anything ;D.

PS:NO !, I am smokin crack again. :D Its possible,I found a guide online somewhere "how to change dreamcast game's music"

Yeah just put a spliter on your speaker-out of your sound card. Then connect it to the line-in of your sound card

            ____[Speaker or headphone]
       _  /
      /  Y   <----[the spliter ( Y ), connect 1 end to speaker and other in line-in ]
__||_||__
line | speaker
in    |  out

You can change the sound quality settings in sound recorder to CD quality. And also use the service mode "F2" in games as most let you cycle thru the music tracks, and if you run mame in a window you can have complete control.
