Playstation 2 Startup Sound Explained

This is a video explaining a few things about the Playstation 2's startup sequence sound effects.

For a further breakdown of how the main "piano smashing" chord was put together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWOAElPbu8Q

The original composition and sound samples were created by Takafumi Fujisawa.

NOTE: Something weird happened with the CPU specs text (put an "f" in front of some of the numbers) but ehhhhh.... let's just keep that our little secret.

ANOTHER NOTE: The audio samples for the BIOS are easy to extract from the BIOS file using a program called "PSound": http://snailrush.online.fr/ I cannot legally provide them for download. Also, please note that viewing this video is not an entitlement to free tech support.
