Embercrown - A 2A03 NES JRPG Music Pack - 43 Tracks is a game music pack, paid.
Embercrown is a 43 track JRPG score written to the NES sound chip's pitched budget: two pulse channels and a triangle. Not a modern arrangement with square wave patches on top. Three voices, and never more than three notes sounding at once, in every one of the 43 tracks. The triangle cannot change its volume. That is the constraint the whole record is built on.
A pulse channel has a volume envelope and can swell, accent and duck under a melody. The 2A03 triangle has none: it is on at one level or it is off. So every bass note in this pack is the same instrument at the same velocity, all 43 tracks, and everything the bass appears to do dynamically is done with register and rhythm instead.
You can check that yourself in about ten seconds: open any.mid and look at the bass track. What you get. 43 OGG files with sample accurate LOOPSTART and LOOPLENGTH tags, which is exactly what RPG Maker MV and MZ read. 43 editable.mid sources, so you can re-voice, re-tempo or pull out a single line. A CHANNEL_MAP.md that tells you, per track, which MIDI track is Pulse 1, which is Pulse 2, and what Pulse 2 is doing.
