Good evening! I'm looking for some kind of specialist here who is better versed in DS sound drivers. This is needs for unfinished list in VGMPF.

This list was started by Duc Nguyen because of his own obsession. In early version of his list he wrote all sorts of lies there, which I had to eliminate.

I'm know only Nitro Composer by Nintendo, DSX Sound Engine by Shin'en Multimedia, which mostly used by Manfred Linzner and Martin Schioeler, and sound driver by Engine Software which mostly used in games by 1st Playable Productions and games which composed by Bart Roijmans. Later i found sound driver by Logik State, which mostly used by Allister Brimble and Anthony Putson (sound driver was mentioned in credits of "Moshi Monsters: Katsuma Unleashed") and sound driver, that used in games by Ubisoft Casablanca (King Kong, Prince of Persia, Star Wars: Lethal Alliance and Rabbids series).

I'm also believe that some games used Krawall-based sound driver, especially games by Amaze Entertainment and Monster Tale, due music was composed in Impulse Tracker. Also, MusyX-based sound driver, which used in games developed by Independent Arts, Denaris and Helixe.

I will be glad if someone helps me with this.

Unsure how relevant this is, but I think I should spread awareness of it: There is a PC-based music tracker called Furnace that not only supports NDS, but it also supports GBA. It is emulated very accurately; however, it does not currently have an actual driver to export to. This could either change in the future, or be hooked to a driver, if a new one were to ever be developed.

Furnace is a very popular choice among chiptune composers nowadays, because it has a very good GUI, is cross-platform, and supports many chips (HUGE list, definitely check out the list on the Github readme) including some that have never had proper trackers before, like SNES, GBA, and Virtual Boy.
