I present to you yet another High Quality Music project. What I think makes mine different, however, is it's true to the original. What's that mean? Well, let me explain.
Some people want a remixed version of the soundtrack and that's fine (and if you're one of those people, this probably isn't for you) but I don't. I just want high quality recordings of the original songs. I was using Ashley Carr's fine synthesised soundtrack, but it was always lacking in the guitar department (since I play guitar, that kind of thing makes me sad
).The 3DO would have sufficed but it only had the first episode of the first Doom, so that wasn't going to do me any good. The PlayStation tracks are awesome for a more atmospheric feel, but there's times when I want more than just the ambiance. The original songs, for me, are timeless classics so I had to take matters into my own hands. I decided to take the MIDIs from the game and did all the songs for myself.
Keep in mind, these are not remixes. On a few rare occasions I did an instrument change here or there (e.g., replacing the Choir Aahs with strings in "They're Going to Get You") but only when I felt the original choices sounded basically ridiculous. Other than that, there is no rewriting of any tracks. They are just MIDIs replaced with instruments and high quality synthesizers.

Feel free to comment, critique, love, hate, whatever. I hope you guys find this useful. If you use any tracks, please credit me, Shane Strife and don't forget the original composers somewhere in there. Enjoy.
Updates: The original packs used MusicLab's Real LPC synth guitar with IK Multimedia's AmpliTube Metal. While it made renders quick, it also made them a bit weak. I'm playing all the gutar tracks now. Hopefully that'll work out better for everyone. Also, upon request, the OGGs are saved at a much higher setting now.
As always, comments are welcome and I'll try to respond as promptly as possible. If I seem curt, I'm not trying to be rude. Thanks to everyone who uses these.
A huge thanks to Woolie Wool for his outstanding help.
