Remarks
- All the MIDI files, transcriptions and mp3 files are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License.
- To make MIDI files, I use the sound module "Roland SC-88VL".
- In the MIDI files indicated as [SC-88], many commands and SysEXs for "Roland SC-88VL" are used. So the sonority of the performance by other sound modules will be quite different from one I have intended.
- As for the MIDI file indicated as [GM-GS] or [GM], I have tried making it a MIDI file which sounds well in any environment. Sometimes a few GS commands are used. But even in GM environment, it will sound relatively well, I think.
