I want to record the soundtrack of a game (in this case Q Boy), and I want to record it stereo, but on Rocknes and NEStron the emulators doesn't support the mapper, but BizHawk does, so can anyone help me with this? Or can someone make an stereo option to NESHawk pretty please?

there's no such thing as stereo on the NES. if youve seen it in other emulators, channels have been arbitrarily and artificially tossed haphazardly into the left or right channels. What I'd rather see is the option to dump 5-track audio and let you stereoize it however you want in postproduction. Anyway, you could get it by recording a movie and then dumping it as wav 5 times with 5 different audio channels enabled. also: google: q boy nsf

Although, if all you wanted was some two channel mix you'd only need to dump as wav twice, with the volumes of the different channels set however.

Use nsf and foobar's foo_gep. It can stereo and encoding.
Warning: When making decisions, I try to collect as much data as possible before actually deciding. I try to abstract away and see the principles behind real world events and people's opinions. I try to generalize them and turn into something clear and reusable. I hate depending on unpredictable and having to make lottery guesses. Any problem can be solved by systems thinking and acting.
