The music in D2 trailer and the MAC version!?

Hi guys! I'm a great fan of the Descent 1/2 music and I've searched quite some time for somewhat rare versions of the original D1 midi tracks.

First of all, the D2 trailer that was released as a sneek peek back in '95 or '96 featured a great version of the music from level two in D1. In which version of the game was this track featured? Mac, PSX or both?

Also, I really want the rest of the redbook versions of the D1 midi tracks. Which version has got them? Mac, PSX or both? Was the Mac soundtrack the same as the PSX soundtrack?

Lots of questions, but I REALLY want to figure this out and get my hands on those tracks! Does anybody know where I can find them? Your help with this would be extremely appreciated.

I'm not positive, but I think the Mac and PSX versions of D1 had the same music. I have the PSX version of the game, and I extracted the tracks from the disk. While it wouldn't be technically legal to upload the songs, since the original author holds the rights to them, if you PM me we might be able to arrange something

.

As for the D2 trailer, I'm not sure, since I'm unable to play it (XP isn't too friendly to it, it seems). I'll give it a try using DOSBox and see if I recognize the track.

I have the video you are referring to shoved into the part of my hard drive where the spider webs are. Let me dig through my Descent MP3 folders and check.

Edit: The song from the video you are referring to was the PSX version:

PlayStation Descent OST, Track 4. Or better yet, grab it in this convenient link! Such a great song. Brings back the memories.

And I have all the versions of Descent's Soundtracks including the D1 OPL2 midi versions recorded in MP3 form.
