@@god6384 it's amazing how far removed The Warcraft franchise in the modern day is to it's roots that you can see here. The source code to this game leaked so a fan made remaster would be cool.
Roland was top quality, I had Sound Blaster AWE32 and wish i had a Roland growing up. But i am also glad that Warcraft Audio CD's played during game instead of the midi as it had better quality, I still have a love for the Gravis, Adlib, OPL3 midi fonts
Hi, hard to say. The popular pro modules were e.g. Roland JV-1080, 2080,. E-MU, KORG, also keyboards from Roland, Yamaha and others or custom samples. Software packages like Cubase, Pro Tools, Cakewalk were also well known among professionals. Fast Tracker, Impulse Tracker, Scream Tracker, OctaMed, Protracker at home :)
@@sfurta I used the awe32 for the midi source back in the day, I must say this card made justice to the game, I can hear very little difference in fact.
@@sfurta To quote Glenn Stafford (the composer of Warcraft II) in 2019: "The original equipment used to record the Warcraft II music was a Roland SC-55 layered with a Roland SC-88. I recall only certain sounds were doubled with SC-88 but not all. French Horns were doubled, and... probably some of the woodwinds too, and I’m guessing strings and choir too. I think Snare was better on SC-55 alone, maybe timp too, also reverse cymbal, and not entirely sure about the rest and would have to take it case by case." He used Cubase on the PC side.
Your soundcard is working perfectly
HMI Module Alpha Humana on approach to Space Station Mercury
IT. DOESN'T. GET. ANY. BETTER. THAN. THIS.
@@daemonelectricity Enjoying yourself?
Your soundcard works perfectly*
Me: Hell yea I'm ready for the Mars Mission.
when I read this comment, the wav file stored in my brain 30 years ago played with 100% perfect unmarred fidelity
Back when Blizzard still had its soul!
yeah now they put lo-fi hiphop mixes on their youtube nobody cares about

Then again, originally Warcraft copied Dune 2...But, in any case after C&C you had hundreds of games copying its RTS style.
@@somberwindsofficial8771 yea but it was blizzard that stuck gold with starcraft and made it a mexican standoff with 3 factions.

So underrated
Gosh this sounds so much better than whatever soundcard I used to have back in the day.
This video deserves millions of views. The sound is great.
These are great! Thanks for posting! Good background music while I work.
I love how the front panel looks like a part of MD-80 cockpit.
Thank you for this flashback
Yay you're back!
You never touch the other elves like that
Fantastic ! Some of the tunes remind me of The Princess Bride score by Mark Knopfler ..
The soundtrack is cool.
Thank you so much for this bru
I love this game.
I'm here to repeat the same thing I said before. So fucking glad I subbed.
Mew :D thanks
masterpiece
O.M.G! Epico!
Consider listing it in TH-cam Music - great work - when Blizzard was a thing nowadays.. meh... those blue haired CEOs
Not one dis-like, as it should be!
What about Warcraft I OST on Roland?
17:10 That's the one!
what about beyond the dark portal
what about it, john?
@Swampy: do you have any idea what hardware/software did they use to make the higher quality music tracks in the CD version?

Bit late I know but they sound identical to the CD playing off of Yamahas XG synth, S-YXG50
Kodo tag!!
