I'm trying to rip sounds from a Sega Genesis emulator actually. According to Wikipedia the YM2612 chip uses time multiplexing instead of mixing the channels properly. I guess there's a filter to disguise that.

I came up with a much better idea.

I recorded it once with the effect and once with only the music. That way it's easier to line up since part of it's the same. I managed to cancel out a lot of the music, but some of it is still in there.

Wow, I never even considered that there might be non linearity in the sound output. I guess this stuff is a lot harder then it seems.

Like I said, it's impossible to line the tracks up manually. The waves don't look the same.

I already to do it manually, but I couldn't get it close enough to cancel out noticeably.

I tried to do it manually, but I couldn't get them lined up. The music is loud enough to mask the waveform, so I can't figure out where each one starts with enough precision.

I am attempting to record a particular sound effect from a game, but unfortunately, there is no option to turn off the music. I thought that if I recorded the same effect at a bunch of different times, it would be uncorrelated, so I could average out the music. However, I can't figure out how to lin...
