People usually say YM synth chip is worse than SPC700 chip found in the SNES, and that's right. Genesis' YM2612 chip uses an older sound output method by generating waveforms instead of real instrument samples. But, in the end, the composer is the one who makes those chips sound good. Sometimes, the Genesis version's songs are better than SNES, and vice versa. It's a matter of a better use of resources; there are Genesis games that sound like ass, and there are SNES games that sound like ass.
By the way, idk if those conversions would work in a real console, as the composer is apparently sampling waveforms instead of generating them, also some YM2612 niggles that I still didn't memorize. But it does sound legit enough for me.

Here to save Gors' post and start ourselves a new page... perhaps fittingly, perhaps not, here are some menu/stage select/character select musics!

I'm blown over by the quality of Gradius III's soundtrack. I love the bass and chorus most, though.
Cosmo Plant and
Departure for Space are some of my favourites!

Not to get too off-topic, but it sounds good with Gradius 3 samples!

Before anyone tries to point out that it isn't VG music, it's used in Vessel, but since it doesn't have an official soundtrack they just linked to the original music on YouTube.
