Flying Battery Zone Act 1 - Oscilloscope Deconstructed
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 июл 2024
- Last time I'm uploading this I promise! Combining an oscilloscope view with deconstructions to make an oscilloscope deconstructed. Enjoy!
This is the third time I've uploaded this due to mistakes in rendering / programs not cooperating like they should. This one is in 60fps, has no ghosting and has correct labeling. So, enjoy!
Also bear in mind, I'll most likely be re-doing all of my current deconstructions and new ones like this from now on. These do take longer to make so there may be less per day I upload, but they'll be of greater quality.

This would be cool as its own phase of the song. Maybe the start.

Flying Battery Zone Act 3
That... is... MY FAVORITE PART OF THE SONG! >:D
channel 0: You're weak
channel 4: i'm you
Channel 4 was probably made as an "echo" effect.

Channel 1 is the bassline.
SOME KIND OF DRUM?! IM DYING

Channel 3 is a chord assist for channel 2
Can you elaborate on what you mean by chord assist. What's the difference between 2 and 3? Thanks
1:20 *S L A P P* 🅱 A S S
Whatsup slappers
Agreed
slap ass is what i read this as
Something about that sega bass was so special ^w^ many great game soundtracks
SL🅰️🅿️🅿️ 🅱️🅰️SS
It's like a stealth mission starting out slow, then it starts to exculate as they accidentally set off the alarm at 1:30 and then everyone is after the stealth-hog.
That’s what I’m saying
You know you've made a good song when it gets chopped into fun sized bits and still is recognizable.
Channel 0 is so satisfiying.
Same with channel 4.
Channel 1 and dec could be my theme
Omg realy? 😧
Yah
That’s cool
Alright so as a kid I was obsessed with this song. Playing the track on repeat for minutes at a time on the Sega Genesis cart and I noticed something: the delay between channel 0 and channel 4 increases by split second on each loop and is very noticeable after a few plays.
It also does the same for Act 2.
So to simulate the sound of a slap-bass effect, channel 1 uses noise to start each note and follows it with a double-tipped sine wave (I'm not sure what else to call it). That's pretty cool. I've always wondered how that sound was made, and now I know it's 2 sounds chained together to make that bass line happen.
This track definitely has one of the best bass lines in S3&K. On par with Angel Island Act 2 and final boss (Big Arms) imo. It’s just so dynamic
Ubertheft I really like death egg zone’s.
I'm pretty sure there's no noise there, because I don't think the FM channels can do noise.
"Classic" FM synthesizers (like the Yamaha DX-7 keyboard, or the Yamaha OPN2 in the Genesis) generally produce sounds with a bank of "operators" (oscillators) that can be arranged in different ways to either phase-modulate each other or just be summed. More musical sounds generally come from oscillators that are running at whole fractions of frequencies from each other, which is why you can really only do FM digitally as synchronizing analog oscillators is somewhat complicated. With oscillators that are not in tune with each other you get some really crazy noisy sounds (the sound of some of the bumpers in Casino Night Zone come to mind).
The sharp attack on the slap bass is probably a modulating waveform that decays quickly, producing higher order harmonics that fade much faster than the sustained sound of the instrument. Those harmonics being only heard briefly end up sounding snappy and atonal. Then there are other harmonics that fade more slowly, much like the actual sound of a plucked or slapped string (if you pluck a metal guitar string and let it ring out, you can hear the high end fade before the low end does).
Any fast change in the frequency or volume of a waveform is usually perceived as "percussive". For example you can create drums in a subtractive synth by using an envelope that sharply drops the frequency of an oscillator.
@@rfmerrill I only understood about 2/3rds of what you just said, but it's pretty cool that each instrument is actually a collection of unique waveforms working together from a programming standpoint.
@@geraldalexander8093 you might find this video interesting: ruclips.net/video/tAK5sefmkIc/видео.html
Because of how the TV was set up at the time while playing Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection, I'm not used to hearing Channel 3.
2:40-3:19 is how I've always known it.
When you listen to the song with only one working earpiece
Fun fact only the model 1 genesis had stereo sound, and only from the headphone jack
That happens to the console bc it has only those channels and need to skip some music's sounds to hear sonic and other sounds of the enviroment
my man why only play only vanilla sonic and knuckles boot that saturn boiiiii
only some well i play sonic 3 on steam some samples are lower but i hear this normaly 3:18

IDK what did
Weed Battery Zone Act 2

Well that's pretty much how they made the Act 2 remixes for Carnival Night, Ice Cap, and Launch Base Zones. They didn't really make any new synth lines - they mostly just messed around with the channels.

Its the sega genesis what did you expect
It is from sega genesis that you most expected a bass from the year 2021
I really love this dark black background, it gives that sense of the music is building up. It's also to watch in the middle of the night

Act 2 already has a precious sound track. No reason to put it here.
There is no FBZ A0 😂😂😂
This makes me want a sonic game with dynamic music. It would be neat if only the bass and percussion played while standing still, and then more instruments would join in to the song as you gain speed
thats really a good idea imo would love to see that
So kinda like what Portal 2 does
It's so freaking funny that Mario just did this first instead of Sonic

I've successfully managed to recreate this exact theme in GarageBand. This video has been a huge help in doing so especially the echo effect of channels 0 & 4.
Post a link!
@@RobertDunn310 it's on his channel
Dude, Channel 1 and DAC are so freaking gooood
It's amazing how intense it sounds even playing with a very strict amount of channels and without resorting from those puny and pitiful sounding PSG channels. A great piece of S3&K soundtrack.
The Mega Drive was a good test for videogame composers. Other games have really awful soundtracks because they weren't capable of being creative around this frankenstein of sound design.
@@fordesponja "...this frankenstein of sound design."
Nice poetry.
@@k-leb4671 wasn't poetry, man was literally stating facts.
I personally liked the PSGs as they added more life to the tracks.

Please everyone ask Davie502 to cover this bass line.

Welp we could ask Davie503... ehm Charles Berthoud (the pro) to do it
These deconstructions genuinely seem to soothe me. And I friggin how the drums get a bit clappy
This made me appreciate the bassline so much more than I did previously
as a person learning about music to make video games this is insanely informative so big thanks
I mean it really
unless you work on an analogic machine it will be be (i think) a bit useless

@@LavaCreeperPeople well nothing stops from doing so but I just wanted you to know
@@LavaCreeperPeople Don't listen to that guy. This is fundamental synthesis, which is incredibly useful to know.
I can imagine like Flying Battery Zone being dark and powerless, and then Eggman hitting switches to turn certain parts on which is emulated by the individual channels turning on slowly, just a cool thought I had
1:20 this is too good
Channel 1 and DAC are the best when they are alone.
I freaking love the bass in this, like even for a Sonic song. It's much more intricate than I thought, hearing it like this. Thank you!
I love how they use two channels to create an echo effect for the lead instruments in sonic OST, pro gamer strats
I really like this new style of deconstruction. It's fascinating seeing all these waveforms in action. It's also easier to see which channel's playing what.
imma gunna set this as my alarm clock 00:00
This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen on youtube!
Oh my gosh, Why do i like channel 1 so much?? :D
Answer: DAT BASS
And Why Im in Love Whit Channel 0?
I'm in love with le channel 1 & le DAC!
Slap bass is the most satisfying way to play guitar.
@@kaexewires7531 a batida do Channel 0 junto com Dac é fantástica, vou colocar de toque no meu celular
Channel 1 and DAC make an awesome combo
if your wearing headphones with surround audio you can mute channel 2 and 3 at will. really lets you appreciate the effort in a video game song from 1994
This looks great! I'm excited to see other deconstructions with this new style and format! :)
Setting Channel 1 and DAC as my ringtone now lmao
I seriously love these videos due to Nier Automata basically playing around with its OST intensity in a similar fashion and it really striking a chord with me in terms of music design.
music that helps beat any kind of depression
1:20 be like my brother hunting me down to beat my butt after messing with his stuff
Yea it’s like somebody is chasing after you and this starts playing it’s a real banger it’s 🔥🔥🔥
I like the channel 1 it's so epic
0:44 sounds kinda like batman
Kinda yeah
Batman? I hear James Bond
Kinda!
shut your mouth (quote shadow)
Channel 1 and DAC are the MVPs once again!
That bass is NASTAY
I absolutely love this song.
What was Sega cooking in the 90s⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️
I love that the Genesis uses harmonizing to add body and a more unique sound, then uses the Bass and Drum (DAC) to shove us right back to our senses! This is sonic you're playing! The Most extreme platformer ever! NO TIME TO WAIT AROUND, COMPLETE THE LEVEL WHILE HEAD BANGING!!!
This is how perfect my childhood got to be ❤
That S3NK Snare drum sound is so crisp, same with the kick
Just slap a toy helicopter on a single battery and you get...
The Flying Battery.
This deconstruction and reconstruction is beautiful ❤
Thanks for making this video!
channel 1 and dac together are pure bliss
This takes me back to the first time I played Sonic Mania
I always think of 007 while I listen to this song.
Brilliant idea to separate all the instruments out, thankyou for these videos. I was a huge Sonic fan as a kid, especially S3&K, and I used to pick out the tunes on the piano because I just loved the music in that game. When I was getting really into composing, these videos were awesome to find when I wanted to really take apart the Sonic music and find out how it worked. It's influenced my stuff ever since! Thanks again for this series, it's been extremely useful!
So, what's the offset between channels 0 and 4?
Just wanna know
Daelin Channel 4 is essentially an echo of channel 1, being delayed by a fraction of a second.
By delaying it, it creates some sort of echo in the background, giving more into the immersion that you are indeed in a flying battleship.
If we're measuring in a 4/4 beat, I believe they're offset about 1/16 or 1/8 of a note.
I'm glad someone is doing this. I'm surprised this isn't a more popular video topic for video games. There should be way more "deconstructed" type videos on RUclips. I'd love to hear the entire DKC soundtracks with their individual sounds isolated like in this.
Damn, this is so freaking good!
I was listening to this on my headphones and I noticed that Channel 2 is heard on the left side and Channel 3 on the right, I hecking love this song.
i don't think i'll ever get tired of hearing channel 0/the main melody in of this song in general. so smartly constructed and catchy
It's amazing how much depth an echo adds.
Channel 1 is then channel that ties everyrhkng together
This is a great format
i love this song so much. Never gets old.
These oscilloscopes are giving me the greatest satisfaction this past week. It's like you're dissecting my organs

Just stumbled across your channel today and I love the deconstructions. Not to sound too greedy, but I hope that you'll do one of these for every Sonic song, maybe even Sonic 3D blast. Either way, really cool stuff.

He download original game music files and then he use foobar2000 to deconstruct
The bass on genesis songs (channel one) is always hella amazing
When the individual channels are playing, I just imagine the other channels playing in my head. These deconstructions really make you think, huh.
