Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow Soundtrack
Composers: Guy Dubuc and Marc Lessard (ingame), Lalo Schifrin (credits), Jack Wall (cutscenes [not included]).
After many years, finally release of high quality Pandora Tomorrow soundtrack from PS2 and PS3 version.
Source quality is 36kHz. Probably variant of IMA ADPCM. It sounds really decent, and far more better than
commonly known rip - probably line-in 22kHz from Xbox or PC version, so muffled and low quality.
Now we have the music unpacked straight from the game files using Watto Game Extractor for IMG files, and DecUbiSndGui-0.81 for decoding .SS1 files (few second segments inside), and Audacity raw import data option for .SS6 files (PS3).
It is a mix of PS2 and PS3 files, in a way to provide you the best quality. I wasn't able to decode all PS3 music files. And PS3 has very agressibely filtered any noise in tracks, in a way that deteriorates overall quality (poor mastering). But there were few songs and fragments used in this release from PS3 too. I wasn't able to decode all PS3 music files, eg. "Standard" tracks, and random, badly decoded fragments. And it had been taken an attempt to remaster Main Menu track. In all versions it was in very low quality. Credits is just losslessly downloaded and converted, selected clip from YT. I couldn't find audio streams for movies this time in game files, though I did it before once.
It was a lot of puzzles to put, many segments to sort out, diffrent fragments to match, I hope you enjoy guys.

Changelog:
- First 6 persons who downloaded the file till 01.09.2017 02:21 are requested to redownload. Jerusalem Suspicious/Main Theme/Criogenics have been fixed. Link hasn't changed.
Extras:
- Same Main Menu remastered, but with ReplayGain (it's quieter, but it has better high tones) [listen in Foobar2000 for using ReplayGain]
- Main Menu - old beta versions based on old DSPs (FFDShow and Creative Crystalizer) - e.g. if you suffered from too much bass in version above, or miss old main menu pitch in older known rip.
- 06_Criogenics Suspicion - 36KHz instead of 32 - I started to like this version more. Previously I just downsampled it for some reason.
- Separate original segments of Jerusalem - Discovered - it's in a bit better quality (play all segments in playlist)
- Jerusalem - Discovered in ~remastered verison (but it's only 2 segments - close to final version, though)
