The Super Metroid parallel to Running Hell in Cave Story

;First off, the music load. Use normal room code to load the instruments, then use the custom room transition code to add in a load after the instruments to load *only* music data (SPC ram 5828).
Well, that didn't last long. New instruments GO
Piano: Loop 0A8C, Pitch 0583. 'pianoe.brr'
Organ: Loop 0000, Pitch 021C. 'KraidOrgan2.bin'
Viola: Loop 07F2, Pitch 07DE. 'VIOLA.BIN

Wow, the piano is being a pain to sound good.

Last good data: 97 DF01234
End amplitude of good data: 268

original wav data:
.105, .135, .16, .175, .19, .19, .19
3096, 3981, 4719, 5161, 5603, 5603, 5603

Target amplitude at end: 6144

Let's go with:
268, 1275, 2219, 3105, 3935, 4713, 4930, 5646, 5805, 5955
