If you just like the composition, but aren’t specifically into the chiptune-style audio – the SNES’s audio hardware can only do so much as to fidelity – I’m pretty sure that you can get the soundtrack.
Also, you can get MIDI files reflecting the game, render them with a newer soundfont in something like timidity or fluidsynth. I’ve done that myself with some other SNES games. As long as it’s done with a soundfont that reasonably reflects the timing and amplitude and such of the source, it can sound pretty good. If you’re interested, I can go take a stab at that, throw you a render – I’m sure that someone has done up Secret of Mana MIDI files.
Yeah, sorry if that came off condescending. It wasn’t meant to. I’m fairly autistic and emulation was a huge special interest at different times in my life
No, wasn’t offended at all. I just didn’t want to waste your time if you already were familiar with the situation; I know people who own the OSTs to various games from then or had elaborate setups like you did, and for someone like that, this is gonna be old hat, but if you were super-gung-ho on that particular music, and hadn’t run into it yet, wanted to open the door just in case. :-)

Edit: I don’t remember if they had this game specifically, but I wouldn’t doubt it.
I’ll try to look for the actual method laterAight, you’re probably very familiar with the situation, then. :-)

I appreciate it! I’m never opposed to learning more or passing on my own knowledge
