Hi!

I'm just wondering if the soundtrack will be available to buy legally from bioware for us that didn't get the CE.

Even though I think I already know the answer I'm asking anyway. If you dont ask you dont learn.

And sorry if this have been asked before. :innocent:

I can imagine, yes. :) Amazon will probably also sell it.

Amazon just released it today; and as you know it's awesome. 7.99 US I believe it was. Listening as I write this!

Also, it seems much more complete than the one I got with my CE. I heard it's available from iTunes as well (announcement in German forums).



Buy, don't buy, buy, don't buy... still hesitating. Having the complete soundtrack is tempting... but one of the reasons to buy the CE was to get the soundtrack. And now I'd have to buy it anyway to get all of it. Why does it have to be this way?

I'm with Ragadurn on this one. I bought the CE and expected the full soundtrack, but alas we have to be happy with only getting half, and having to buy the soundtrack again to get the missing songs. What gives?

You get the soundtrack with CE.

You do, but not the complete one - it has just about half of the tracks available on the "new" soundtrack.

Because the game was released by Electronic Arts, du'h. Same reason as to why we have a NPCs in the camp pestering you about buying DLC.

The root of all EAvil? :P

I'll rather rip the tracks from the game than buy it twice. Yet another advantage of playing on PC.

Hmmm...I just noticed as well that there is a full soundtrack on Amazon and am a bit annoyed that the CE was advertised as having the soundtrack, but then only has half the songs. It'd be nice to get an official statement on this.

It is also worth noting that the soundtrack on amazon doesn't have all the songs either - there are 7 on the CE soundtrack that are not in the amazon release.
There are 42 altogether - 35 on amazon, 18 on the CE; of which they hold 11 in common.

Just as an FYI, there are several hundred pieces of music in the game (though I suspect not all used), so seeing a "complete" set released is highly unlikely.

If there is one specific piece I can try to find it, but music tracks are much harder to find than the dialogue ones (see sig below).

If you don't mind me asking, what are you using to extract the sounds/music from the game?  I wouldn't mind digging around myself. :)

Personally I use Sony Sound Forge 10 Pro. 

FSB files can be picky if they don't have the proper (or any) header information in them for the files, and many don't.

Single files like leliana_sings.fsb only have the one file in the archive.  Some FSB files have hundreds of files in them, or even 1,500 or more (I've been messing with plenty of these lately).

FSB stands for Fmod Sample Bank format.  More info can be found here..... www.file-extensions.org/fsb-file-extension-fmod-sample-bank-format

Sound format mainly recommended for game consoles (PlayStation, XBox, GameCube) as optimal method to loading sound data to console sound RAM. 8 or 16 bit mono/stereo sound file, contains loops, names. Could be compressed.

I have a SoundBlaster X-Fi soundcard, that allows recording the sounds that the computer plays. It's a bit messy method, and requires some editing afterwards, but you can get anything from any game with it. I'm pretty sure there are programs that allow that with any soundcard too.

Ah come on, EA has long since stopped being the "source of all evil". Their quality has increased tenfolds, and they brought us awesome games in the last couple years. if you want the source of all evil, now ActiBlizzard's adress is what you need to input in your GPS...

A search for Dragon Age Origins on iTunes comes up with an album with 35 songs--looks like that's the complete thing.

35 Tracks on Amazon.com as well.  Not sure if they match up completely however (Won't touch iTunes).

When I heard that there was a 35 track album, I was sort of interested, but then I realised it doesn't have any of the Redcliffe music either. Which is disappointing, because Redcliffe has some of the best tracks for me :(
