*The [[#Kurzweil K2500|Kurzweil K2500R]] and [[#Roland SC-88|Roland SC-88]] alone make up nearly 90% of the soundtrack for {{P1}}, and over 55% of the soundtrack for {{P2}}.{{cite web |rname=spreadsheet}}

*The in-game instruments that play the sequenced music of ''Pikmin 1'' and ''Pikmin 2'' use {{w|Envelope (music))|envelopes}}, of which there exist four types with different attenuations. There exists a basic "Linear", "Square", and "SquareRoot" attenuation, but only the fourth type gets used, curiously named "SampleCell".<ref>From instruction <code>0x80478be0</code> of the US Demo 17 ''Pikmin 2'' DOL; function <code>JASOscillator::relTableSampleCell</code> with debugging symbols.</ref> This fourth envelope type is similar to the SampleCell II software's instrument attenuation, suggesting that the instruments may have been programmed and designed in this software, prior to their in-game implementation.
