SMC Sierra Music Volume 1 CD

An assorted CD, full of classic "Quest" goodness, with some other games thrown in for good measure, recorded back when I was just 17!
Enjoy what I originally described as, back in 2003, "An assorted 'soundtrack CD' comprising various wonderful Sierra game tracks from various talented Sierra composers.".

The single soundtrack CD (from 2003) features an assorted CD, with Roland MT-32 and Roland Sound Canvas SC-55 (General MIDI) soundtracks enhanced with each other, and also the Roland Sound Canvas SC-8850! Recorded digitally, using a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 SE.

All tracks in this SMC soundtrack are enhanced - including the "SC-55" and "MT-32" only tracks (no mix), which have had reverb enhancements in their creation, and mixing arrangements.

All digital tracks are encoded at 44.1 kHz in stereo (CD quality) in two formats for your convenience:
1. Every track links to a MP3 file (formerly, this would link to Ogg's) encoded with LAME at an average 220 kbps, using the VBR method (if you don't care, it's high-quality).
2. The RAR* at the top of the page is the complete score in Ogg Vorbis format, at quality 7 (an average of 210 kbps), using the VBR method (also high-quality).
*can be opened with WinZip

For more information, please see SMC's forums and the new MP3/Ogg Vorbis explanation page, as well as the page on how to burn an SMC audio CD (also new!). (Of course, feel welcome to visit the SMC forums/contact Alistair if you have any issues/questions at all.)

ALSO: This rerelease of the old CD has a bonus track- while checking out the SMC archives (which I had to go through to find these old master recordings!), I found a track which never made it to the final cut. It's now included for completeness as the last track, an "Outtake".
