I would be really cool to see "space trip steps (meteor herd)" from SA2 Deconstructed like this, I love the synth in that one. This is really damn accurate so I bet you can do the other SA2 songs justice too!
So firstly, we have to find out who the composer is, which is easy. Everyone knows Senoue composed a lot of the songs in SA2, but for extra confirmation, on his twitter, he mentions arranging Green Hill. Secondly, is finding out what hardware they use. Usually popular composers will have interviews where they list or at least passively talk about their hardware. Senoue has two of these (among a few twitter posts) where he mentions the KORG Trinity and Alesis DM5. Thirdly is buying the hardware. I bought myself a KORG TR-Rack (Trinity Rack) and an Alesis DM5 (drum machine) after reading Senoue's interviews to check for sounds. Fourthly is the longest part, actually researching. I've listened to the SA2 OST front to back at least 10 times in the last few months to document as many sounds as possible between the listed synths. To make research easier, you can use a program like CenterCutGUI to separate the middle chanel from the side channels and analyze instruments that are panned left and right or are hard to hear correctly. Then finally is transcription. Once you've found all of the sounds to a song, you can write down every note you hear and arrange it into a remake as closely as you can. Optionally is mixing the song with the original equipment, though this is so expensive that no one really does it unless it was mixed with software. We have a discord server of ~2k people that all collaborate on different games to try to document as much as possible. I'm part of the Sonic section but there are a lot of members both older and younger to the community that help out a lot. Currently, it's not open for entry due to raids but it will soon!
@@NUKELEDGE You could literally make a video about how you made this, incredibly interesting to read, thank you for telling me in such detail. Surprised you went out of your way to buy the specific synths, a lot of dedication for a great remake of the song.
can you do a deconstruction of sky Babylon from sonic rush adventure? There's an instrument missing from the midi files and I want to see how this looks
I cant believe Jun Senoue made a BrassOfPower reference in 2001

If I ever find the synths used then definitely.
@@NUKELEDGE hell yeah! Good luck on finding them!
I love this
It's crazy how this has two more channels than the orginal version!
Always loved this version of ghz
this is so me when
Love it!!! Great
Fun Fact: Sonic Advance 2 uses Brass 1 in Music Plant Zone Act 2
Music Plant uses A012 Stereo Brass from the KORG Trinity, although the Brass 1 patch does appear in a different song.
@@NUKELEDGE I didn't mean that, I meant the sample 0xc41820(which is B22 played as a chord)
@@Mizu2023 Ah, that is true
LOVE IT!!!!
Is this a recreation of the song? How did you do this?
It sounds great and very accurate if it is a recreation
iirc they found the samples and recreated the song lol pretty cool imo

@@thetrashman8343 I do intend to make an in-depth video about this topic
@@NUKELEDGE That would be amazing
kinda unrelated, but i think that the tom samples from alesis's dm5 are used in the simon wai prototype of sonic 2

Wow, how did you manage to do an oscilloscope view of this?😄🤩😎👌
I remade the track with its original hardware.
