Nice to see something game related go down on c.s.a2! :-)

I've been wanting to include IIgs game soundtracks on the Fairway, but for the time involved in doing so using a real IIgs, it's just...too time consuming.

When (and if) Henrik and Andre finish Sweet 16/Bernie for OS X with all the sound options Bernie 3.0 had, well, I'll be firing up WireTap and recording all that music, without IIgs noise, at resampled 44Khz, etc, and spitting out MP3s. It'll also be a LOT quicker opening each game through emulation.

There is no advantage to upsampling a signal--no information is added,
and the resulting file is much larger.

No, Bernie ][ the Rescue attempts to "fill in the gaps" of 11Khz and 22Khz samples by reproducing IIg sound output at 44Khz. How it does this, exactly, I don't know. Perhaps it only works with Ensoniq synthesised sound?
