Music Development
AMI
Bogas created MIDI files in Super Studio Session, which were converted to Kevin Seghetti's Amiga sound driver.
AST
Ed used The Music Studio (AST), in which music was entered in musical notation on a staff roll.
DOS
Bogas used his own program Super Studio Session.
NES
Ed wrote the music in 6502 assembly using a sound driver by Jeff Lefferts.
For Action 52 and Cheetahmen 2, the games both borrow music from The Music Studio (AST). Ed was most likely not involved and the tunes were most likely used without his permission. His music was arranged by Mario Gonzalez.
SNES
Bogas created a MIDI conversion tool, which was converted to Chip Level Designs' audio driver.
