PSO High Quality Soundtrack Replacement Pack

This is a project I've been meaning to get around to, and these past couple days I did just that.

The pack replaces a majority of the files used in the OGG folder of PSOBB, sourced from the official release of the soundtrack in lossless then converted to ogg with new loop points and higher bitrate.

This does not replace any existing track that uses multiplexing, which is what is used to transition between "passive" and "battle" parts of a track. This is due to the transition stages of these tracks not being in the official soundtrack release, making it impossible to convert it entirely to higher quality.

This also includes a .txt file listing more information on the files replaced.

Code: 
All files originated from 'Phantasy Star Music Collection BOX 2000-2007' lossless FLAC

slbgm_boss09b.ogg // 'IDOLA' The Fanatic Viper
EP4_ENDING_FO.ogg // World with me -remix for PSO BB-
EP4_ENDING_LOOP.ogg //

Due to issues with the soundtrack itself, DARK1.ogg needed to use a part of the original lower quality ogg in order for it to loop properly.
CUBE_ENDING_LOOP.ogg has been extended with a new looping point.

I may update this in the future to include some of the Episode III tracks and a few others that might exist in the jukebox.

Let me know if you come across any issues and I'll see what I can do about fixing them.
 
Also might as well post this here:

There's an issue with BASS.ogg in the PSOBB client that is causing it to loop improperly, creating audible clicks in the right channel. This is heard after selecting a character and loading into the ships menu and bursting into rooms. The file itself was too long, cutting it by 6 samples resulted in a smooth loop.

Here's a link to the fixed file

It's come to my attention that "DARK1.ogg" was missing LOOP_START metadata in my pack. I have fixed this in the attached file, which you should simply throw in and replace the existing "DARK1.ogg" with. I will also update the download link at some point but I'm lazy. You could also edit in the metadata yourself if you don't want to download, simply put in a LOOP_START tag with sample point 1080423.

Oh right, I've been meaning to update my new install with this but I keep forgetting to ask. Thank you.
 
Not sure if you're still updating this but DRAGON.OGG has a audible crackle ingame that doesn't show when playing the file by itself.
 
Oh, nevermind. It does, I just didn't notice it. It's not crackling, its the game randomly raising the volume of the SFX/Music and then going back down to what I set it, weird.

Does the crackling not happen when using the original dragon.ogg?

What is your Windows speaker configuration and output set to?

Sometimes PSO does weird things with certain audio chipsets, speaker configurations, and bitrate / hz settings.

I'd imagine if you set Windows to output at 16/24 bit and 48khz stereo only, it'd be fine. But you shouldn't HAVE to do this... Just saying, if it annoys you that much.

The link is dead. Have you updated the main upload to include the fixed files? If not it would be appreciated if you could.
