Music Development
NES
Michiya Hirasawa programmed a sound driver that was used in all of the company's games. The music was written in Music Macro Language, according to Norihiko Togashi. While he never worked for Technos, he did use Hirasawa's driver for the only two Famicom titles he worked on.
SNES
Technos, at first outsourced the sound to Mint. Robert C. Ashworth however used a version of Nintendo's Kankichi-kun sound driver for Super Double Dragon (SNES), which was a predecessor of his own original sound driver he later created, SDCLINK.
SDCLINK was written by Robert C. Ashworth and wrote music in a tracker-like format.
