Some music sounds pretty good, but then this one track stood out in its horrible-ness compared to the original. (original can easily be found on youtube, if you don't remember how it sounded)
It's the boss battle theme, or one of them anyways, which can be heard when fighting the big fish-thing in the beginning when Tidus is alone.
I added a video as I'm very bad at explaining this in words:
The speed is perfect, no glitches or beeping either, but it sounds like a fan-made simple version of the song, instead of the original.
I played through persona 4 completely on an older version of the emulator and I don't think I had any off-sounding music on that one.(now on 0.9.8 , with the 1.5.0 version of the SPU2-X)
Is this normal, or should I be getting better music? And is this instance an example of ff X handling music differently? As just before the battle starts, you have the build-up music part of this theme, which sounds spot on!
I tried using the old plugin of the version I used to play persona with, and it did sound way better, but not as good as the original at all. (especially with reverb x 4 it sounded close, 8 was too much though)
I tried using pretty much all settings (custom / normal SPU as well, custom has the same problem)
If it were any other game I would just assume emulation isn't perfected that far yet and shrug it off, but this game seems close to the best supported one on pcsx2, so I had to ask.
