      First is “Unused Track”
      Then “Ice Cap Zone Act 2 (prototype)”
      Then “Launch Base Zone act 1 (prototype)”
      Finally this song.

      PSG 2 is often given up to enable the special noise mode on PSG 3, for hihats. If they tried to use it, it would only be able to output sound when PSG 3 isn't.

    • @alejo8385
      @alejo8385 5 років тому +12

      @@SilverSonic1992 it's simply because those songs use the standard noise mode in those games rather than the special mode. Standard is limited to 3 different tones, which most SMS/GG composers used for simply kick drums and snares, but Special gives the noise channel a full 7 octaves, that octave being taken from the third channel because hardware limitations. The sonic 3 composers decided to use the highest pitched tone for a hihat, so they can have enough space on the 2612 for lead echo, chords, or other things. There are Genesis games that use the full 3 channels, but usually sacrifice one FM channel for hihats. That's what I've at least learned from seeing oscilloscope videos and fucking around on Deflemask.

      Yeah, Lava reef zone also seems like the acts have completely different music, but it's just heavily remixed. In sonic 3D Blast, Panic Puppet's acts have different composers, so I'm pretty sure there's no connection between Panic Puppet's acts.
