Download Secret of Mana MSU-1 ROM Hack

Secret of Mana/Seiken Densetsu 2 MSU-1
Version 1.0
by DarkShock

This hack adds CD quality audio to Secret of Mana using the MSU-1 chip invented by byuu.
The hack has been tested on SD2SNES, bsnes-plus 073.1b and higan 094. The patched ROM needs to be named som_msu1.sfc.

BSNES v075 or any other version is NOT RECOMMENDED, use bsnes-plus it's much better (and also the emulator I use for testing/analysis/debugging).

Works also with:
- Seiken Densetsu 2 (J)
- Secret of Mana (F)

**** IMPORTANT FOR PAL ROM *****
You need to edit the manifest file (som_msu1.xml or manifest.bml) and change NTSC to PAL in order to work

In order for this to work, you need the music pack available here: https://www.mediafire.com/?q6lss155pnywtt3
