Yep, that one seems to work. The extracted stuff is a real mess, though. Chances are the tables are in one of the hex-named files, not seeing anything obvious. This might be a job for an auto-coef finder (which I think manakoAT wrote at some point).
Big Bump. by Droolie at 10:38 AM EST on January 23, 2009
Hi again.
I don't need help with Rayman Revolution or Rayman 3 anymore, since both of them have been uploaded to RayTunes ( BTW: wolupgm6, the incomplete tracks are reuloaded ;) ).
I do still need help for Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 though. Also, I might try to rip the music from Rayman Raving Rabbids: TV Party in the future.
- The remaining tracks from Rayman 1 for PSOne. Here is a link to the files that contain the music ( click "Rayman 1 - Extra Tracks.zip" ). The files that start with 'RAY' contain sound effects, the files with 'SEP' contain the sounds of the music. Sounds, not the music itself. I think that the *.VB files ( Sony Playstation Wavebank ) contain the sounds, and BIGFIX.ALL has the order to play the sounds in to make it music. I have also scanned the *.VB files with WOTIZPSX. It says that the files might contain *.VAG files. I'm not familiar with them though, so can anybody help? Thanks. ;)
Oh dear... This sounds awfully similar to the GCSequences...
-And Thanks For The Re-Upload

It's (still) alive! by Yoshinkeru at 11:05 PM EST on January 24, 2009
(I was gonna resurrect this thread myself, but it looks like it's already done. Anyway...)
I took a look at those extra tracks on Rayman 2: The Great Escape after I got the other tracks. I'm wondering how the heck did you get those??
But I also wonder if you noticed that Extra 3 - The Ambience of the Bayou is exactly the same as 1-12 - The Fairy Glade - Part 2?
I've also thought of something else, wherein I might be able to contribute after all. You see, I am able to detect (sometimes, anyway) where the audio loops in Rayman 2's music occur. Sometimes the audio cuts to different points than the original score was composed, it seems. I have taken the liberty of taking two tracks in particular and patching them into a more "correct" order. Once I figure out how best to get them to you, I'd like you to take a listen.
Yoshinkeru/Friendly Floyd, signing out!
Was that a Portal reference? by Droolie at 12:09 PM EST on January 25, 2009
Hey there! ;)
How I got them? I ripped them from Rayman Revolution, but they are variations of original Rayman 2 tracks. That's why I put them in the R2 soundtrack as extra tracks.
And no, I hadn't noticed that. Nice to know, but I won't be removing that extra for a while ( not until I update the RayTunes site again ). :P
Also, have you read this post on the Pirate-Community forum? "Synthesis" released a great tool that allows you to rip the original tracks, and he also released 2 zip archives with all the tracks from that version of the game ( in their original order + the unused beginnings and endings of the tracks ). So no need to give me the correct order anymore, because it's all in that soundtrack. I suggest you have a listen. ;)

THIS is why I LOVE you guys by Yoshinkeru at 2:21 PM EST on January 25, 2009
I dunno what you mean by "5000 tings", but Synthesis definitely deserves commendation for his efforts! (I would've given him 9000 internets!)
See, THIS is the kind of thing I LIVE for: the original audio untouched, even if not used in the game.
I can't tell you how much I love it when some persons do all the hard work for me, and I love it even more when I can give my thanks like this!
Ya know, I would have left the ending of The Fairy Glade - Part 1 in, if only just before you meet the Teensies (or simply ending, after you run thru once).
P.S. Oh, I wasn't specifically thinking of Portal when I wrote that subject.
In case anyone else was curious, I had edited two tracks: Riding the Shell and Beneath the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava; those were the easiest to spot the loops and edit them.
