Hack description
The bass-lines in Golden Sun and Golden Sun 2: The Lost Age soundtrack are almost inaudible through the GBA/GBA-SP/NDS small portable speakers, because such speakers aren't able to produce low sounds.
To completely fix the problem, you will need large hi-quality headphones to plug in your GBA/GB-Micro/NDS. Unfortunately if you have a GBA-SP, a special adapter is needed.
This hack partially fix that problem by replacing the bass guitar sample in both games by another bass guitar sample with much more harmonics, that will make more noise through the small crappy speaker so you'll hear the bass-lines better.
This patch applies to the US version Golden Sun 2: The Lost Age. If you want to apply the hack to a version in another language and/or if you want to supply your own bass sample to try out, please contact me by email at jmasur [at] microclub [dot] ch.
