I'm still looking for confirmation of sound drivers. It still needs similar program to NSFID and vgmid to check most of games.
The reason is Duc Nguyen created not full sound driver list at VGMPF. There's some lies were there: https://vgmpf.com/Wiki/index.php?title=Nintendo_64_sound_drivers
I'm only know, that Nintendo's sound driver was not licensed to various developers. Not like MP2K or Nitro Composer. Most of Japanese developers and groups like Mint, Music Worx and Pure Sound used their own sound drivers. Most of western games used Software Creations sound driver, due the developers used their tools and hardware from Nintendo's devkit. And in some japanese games, according to SubDrag's research.
Regarding Nguyen's thoughts, not all games uses Software Creations' sound driver. Some games used unique sound drivers, especially games by Boss Game Studios, H2O Entertainment (only two Tetris games), LucasArts and various others. And also, FMOD sound library (South Park Rally) and Miles Sound System as audio compression technology.
But most of last games uses MusyX driver and MORT voice compression technology by Factor 5.
Some drivers should be checked and confirmed.
Before I'm tried to extract ROM files for checking sound formats, but i don't know, how it can be extracted.
Some of sound drivers, like Software Creations (N64WavePtrTable) were mentioned in SubDrag's N64Soundtool config files: https://github.com/jombo23/N64-Tools/blob/master/N64SoundbankTool/Release/gameconfigsound.ini , https://github.com/jombo23/N64-Tools/blob/master/N64SoundbankTool/Release/gameconfigmidi.ini
But some types didn't mentioned.
I finished research a month ago, but these sound drivers are still unconfirmed, especially:
Asmik (Virtual Pro Wrestling 64, WCW vs. nWo: World Tour) - it possibly uses Michiya Hirasawa's sound driver (see Mint section)
Athena (Dezaemon 3D, Pro Mahjong Kiwame 64)
Climax (Battlezone: Rise of the Black Dogs) - uses extended modules

T&E Soft (Harukanaru Augusta Masters '98, Waialae Country Club: True Golf Classics)
Treasure/early (Mischief Makers)
Tsukasa Masuko (Densha de Go! 64, Quest 64) - both games can be use different sound drivers, but Tsukasa Masuko working on both games

Also, I'm still confused with Software Creations, since it founded in some of Japanese games, according to same config files. And all games uses same SNG sound format (with sole exception of Nightmare Creatures, since it used extended modules). Only SubDrag can confirm it, since he researched most of N64 games, but really?
And birdmanager6 is refused me about N64 support for vgmid, since he not interested on it. Really. And SubDrag refused me, since he never created similar programs and he is busy with other things. Maybe, someone can check some of unconfirmed drivers, that researched by me.
