- What do you mean by "speeding up the music"? SF2 has fixed-length sound tracks
- which are pre-recorded. The "speeding-up" was done when the music was recorded,
- not during gameplay. I have a SF2 soundtrack (one of the british gaming mags
- that I bought recently had a free CD :-) and the music simply speeds up
- approximately 20 seconds before the end of each track. There are additional
- percussion sounds when that happens, too.
