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