NES
Compile's NES sound driver was programmed by Takayuki Hirono. The music was entered in assembler macros on an MSX.

Compile received the source code to Nintendo's Kankichi-kun sound driver, and it was modified by Nobuaki Yamasaki. According to Einosuke Nagao, the music was written in a custom Music Macro Language, with the instruments being sampled from various sources including a Roland TR-909, SH-101, and Juno-106.
