Hack description

Sunsoft's games are known to utilise DPCM samples to add bass lines, and Gimmick! is no exception. In 2020 it was discovered that the samples suffer from an encoding issue known as bit-reversal. This hack corrects all of the samples to what the composers & sound programmers likely intended.
