thank you! maybe this is finally done, but who knows. I tried to get it right the first time, only to make a bunch of updates like everyone else. I approach every undertaking with work ethic and attention to detail, and this is no exception. the complexity of a seemingly simple 16 bit game made this a challenge.

btw, here's an informal changelog, to the best of my recollection:

1.1: added newly discovered contexts for sounds which I had thought were only used in one place (4B, 5D);
new recipes (boss breakdowns, Lock/can't use techniques, etc) bringing the total to 64;
expanded the additional info under Appendix with a couple more entries (in particular, I wanted to flesh out 91, since the cyclone sound is used by several party techs, as well as two enemy techs that I'm aware of).

1.2: the addition of the layer 3 packets section;
removed layer 3 packets from the main list (because I couldn't include them consistently);
labelled the additional info subsection under Appendix;
improved the formula and placed it atop the main list;
minor changes (eg changing a comma to a semicolon for 03).

1.21: style/organization: only major section titles are in ALL CAPS, subsection titles are only Capitalized;
fixed 'level 3' typo, changing all mentions to 'layer 3'.

1.22: info added on mystery layer 3 tech;
change to introduction (iirc removing the formula, leaving it only above main list).

1.23: minor changes. rewrote the description of the Appendix in the intro;
added an etc to D0 (to indicate that it's used in other contexts besides Rainbow, namely Dalton summoning fail and the mystery layer 3 tech);
improved the description of the aforementioned mystery tech to 'electric ring/flash'.

I beg your pardon, just one more thing. I'll need the layer 3 packets section updated with the fixed-width version, provided below:

2C: 54, D0......unused enemy tech 5E (electric ring/flash, non-elemental magic attack)
38: B6 x3, 77...boss breakdown
40: B6 x2, B7...large boss breakdown
48: D7..........Super Volt
5F: D3..........Spire
82: C3 x3.......Dark Eternal
86: 0D..........party runs away

it can stay the same version, since this is just an aesthetic fix. hopefully you don't mind.

Done.

One of the sounds currently listed as unused might be used somewhere. I saw it in a super command (tech shortcut for reused data) last night, but I haven't yet confirmed if that super command is used anywhere.

I'd be interested in learning more about that, and any other 'unused' sounds which might be used. even if they're in unused techs, I can still elaborate with that info (like in the layer 3 section).

the ride never ends.

All I can tell you at this point is 5c is used before 71 in one super command, and there weren't any other unused sounds in that area.

While sound 5C is used in super command 19, that super command isn't used by any tech.

I'm not sure if it's worth updating just to cover that. I'll wait for more info for the time being.

Just doublechecking with xcalibur/Mauron; was this list in the encyclopedia yet? Can totally add.

wiki entry: https://www.chronocompendium.com/Term/Text_List_of_Sound_Effects.html#Battle_sound_effects

CHRONO TRIGGER: BATTLE SOUND FX & TECH RECIPES

All sounds are labelled with hexadecimal, which uses numbers 0-9 and letters A-F to represent 16 values. With two digits, this allows up to 256 different values, although not all are used.

I've listed the sounds in hexadecimal order. I describe the sounds and the contexts in which they're used in-game. I provide the tech name and a descriptor (such as charge/cast/impact), with the characters/enemies who use the tech in parentheses. I also include additional info, reference frequent combinations using from/to, and compare sounds with cf. To indicate where the sound is in a sequence, I use #/# (eg 2/3 means the second of three sounds). To show that a sound is played in repetition, I use x(number) eg x2 for twice. For sounds which are continuously looped, I place [LOOP] at the end of the entry. I use etc to emphasize that there is other relevant information (techs, enemies) which did not make the cut; ap is used where this information is included in the Appendix. I made sure that each entry takes up only one line on the forum; while not all details fit within the margin, I was still able to cover the relevant information. The basic formula is provided atop the main list; if more convenient, I used short descriptions instead. Overall, I strove for a consistent, legible style throughout.

I was able to identify 188/200 sounds, or 94%. I went solely by the list of 200 SPCs; if there are other sounds, I didn't examine them (my best finds were AC and CA, they were very obscure). The 12 remaining sounds are, to my knowledge, unused in the vanilla game. Unused sounds are indented, tagged with [UNUSED], and given commentary; they are also indexed between the main list and recipes.

The Tech Recipes are combinations of sounds used for various techs employed by both the party and monsters. Aside from novelty value, this should make it easier to look up sounds; just think of a tech in which it's used and check for it. The techs are organized by single/double/triple and enemy techs, as well as by character and in-game order. I use commas for sounds that are played in sequence, and a slash / for sounds which overlap each other. I've documented all party techs and many significant enemy techs.

At the end is the Appendix, which consists of three subsections. First, I list certain entries in greater detail than permitted by the single line margin. Then, I collate and describe the Layer 3 Packets (which are also referenced in the Recipes). Finally, I document the sources used in compiling this work.

The devs were clever in their use of sound fx. Many sounds are re-used in different contexts, while fitting the action each time. For example, C6 is used for the second phase of Evil Star (Lavos Core), as well as Water Rising (Giga Gaia) and Rock Teleport (Azala). I'm sure everyone has noticed that 6D is used for Aura Whirl and Halation, but it's also used by Guardian & bits. In addition, it's usually cut short -- by including the high-pitch tone at the end of Halation, it achieves the uncanny effect of distorting a familiar sound. Also note how 97 is used to very different effect in Lucca's Flare vs. Robo's Area Bomb. By cutting sounds short or repeating them rapidly, they accomplish more with their given resources.

There is an abridged version of the main list available as an alternative.

Credit goes to xcalibur, with honorable mention to Mauron. Any mistakes/omissions are my fault.
