http://www.mediafire...7kcsmvu270am8ka (also includes a high quality version of the Sonic CD intro FMV, as well as a region hacked Sonic CD JP ISO + cue file [cue file can be used for any sonic CD image])

Sonic CD is the greatest 2D Sonic of all time.
Featuring 78 levels, two complete OST's, the Super Peel Out (AKA best Spin Dash ever), and a special stage that attempts to recreate the 2D Sonic experience in 3D (find the correct order of bumpers, springs, and enemies to finish the special stage the fastest).
It's also the fastest of the 2D Sonic games (thanks to the Super Peel Out), with the best Time Attack records totaling 10:55'82

This is not only a cherry picked melding of the best tracks from the US and JP versions, but they're also enhanced with certain 12 inch versions of the US music, and the JP tracks unused loop bits added it.
JP songs will now loop virtually seamlessly in MP3 players, if you so choose to leave them on endless loop. There is still a slight pause in the game.

I could still make this better if only I could replace Stardust Speedway's past mix with the JP "G" mix.
Just like the game would be better if only you could play as Tails too. (and avoided having things like the homing attack thrown in for Sonic, so not a Sonic CD+ thing)

Happy birthday Sonic!

Custom soundtrack intended for people who would prefer to use the US version ISO out of their love for Sonic Boom.
http://www.mediafire...nr64tbtutkex4nb

This version of the soundtrack exists to provide the US version with its own soundtrack.
This is because the US version plays the Stardust Speedway "G" Mix when you race Metal Sonic in the Good Future. The JP/PAL version always plays the "B" Mix when you race Metal Sonic.

Another problem, is that DA Garden, and Time Attack use different tracks depending on the version of the game. The US version actually uses its DA Garden music for the time attack theme.

Collision Chaos "G" Mix: US
Stardust Speedway "G" Mix: US (12 inch version)
Metallic Madness "G" Mix: JP (with loop bit added in)
Time Attack Track: US Little Planet
Time Attack/Little Planet: JP Time Attack
Intro: US (custom 12 inch mix)
Credits: US (custom 12 inch mix)
---
The JP version of Sonic CD always plays the Stardust Speedway "B" Mix during the race with Metal Sonic.
The US version of Sonic CD allows you to restart any stage from the beginning at the cost of a life. This is useful for time attacking past and future stages from the level select.
The US version also has less slowdown than the JP version.

Thank you so much for this, can't wait to give it a try and also listen to the remixed and enhanced version of the music. I love both US and Jap Soundtracks.

Really don't want to do this to you here but nice job basically stealing my Japanese Boss music edit and cutting it in half... unless this is some weird form of flattery because people LIKE that edit... now I'm confused.

That said, it's a shame you couldn't do more with your U.S. tracks. The Sonic Boom album with full versions of the U.S. tracks are something you should look into more, since I heard a few of your tracks already used them. You could do some fun stuff with them instead of an overall copy-paste of the tracks.

Yay, cleared up over PM.
What I did was use Goldwave, adjusted the fading, then took the loop bits, and I pasted them into the end of the mp3's from the rom download all myself.

I did a more complex edit of the Wacky Workbench "G" mix with stuff from Sonic Boom.
I really didn't want to change the pace of the tracks themselves, you know, preserve the artists intentions while keeping things as good as possible. That's why I didn't use Tidal Tempest 12 inch.

Will the ISO run on my Mega CD (like Sonic mega Mix) or is it for emulators only? I'm assuming the latter as I'd need a PAL version anyway.

It should run on a Mega CD if you burn it. I've burned the U.S. 920 build to a CD with music tracks and my Sega CD reads it perfectly fine.

You would have to change the region of the ISO.
It's currently set to the American Sega CD region.

So for yourself, I'd just go with the emulator. It'll be better that way so it runs in 60hz instead of 50hz.

I miss the old music icon.
Now no one knows this is a music project : (

You bumped a month old topic resulting in a double post merely to express discontent with the lack of thread icons?
I see through you. The topic title says Custom Soundtrack, it's obvious anyone reading the title knows its a music project.

So your post just seems like a bump to me. You can deal without thread icons

Late to the party :psyduck:

Thanks for the awesome work, though. I'll look at this later. Maybe I'll go make a copy using the Beta SS music from the Japanese OST (the 4:32 one.)
