- Details about all the FAC Soundtracker 1 songs on disk 1 of MSX Club Magazine 38
Five songs are included in The Valley Promo, the full game includes an extra song.
| Song (MUS) | Drumkit (SM1/SM2) | Title | Composer | Music menu of promo | Full version |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| COMPLETE | DRUMKIT | Mission Complete | Jeroen van Leeuwen (Nighthawk) | Option 5 | COMPLETE.MSC |

Notes:
- MACHCODE.BIN is actually a special version of the FST.BIN driver, with stereo support and handling of crunched MUS files
- In the promo, the MUS files are crunched in the files COMPLETE.CMP, OTHRTIME.CMP, RIVERS.CMP, TIMEOUT.CMP and VALLEY.CMP
- In the full version, only VALLEY.MUS is crunched in VALLEY.CMP but you need to separate the songs merged in MUSIC1.BIN and to correct the headers in most cases
You can optionally put the decrunched and adapted files on a dedicated FAC Soundtracker 1 music disk.
Important! You need to modify the names to use the correct extensions (MUS/SM1/SM2).
For more tips about this format, check the FAC Music Disk 1 Wiki page, especially to play the songs on MSX1.
