The beta version of the game has a slightly different soundtrack. These early tracks are not in the final ROM as music tracks (some are used as sound effects, and one has a tune plus sound effect). They include:

• (untitled)
• (unknown battle theme)
• Battle 1 (remix)
• Before Lavos
• Bells
• Drips
• Heartbeat (fast)
• Heartbeat (slow)
• Keeper's Dome
• Lavos Prepares to Emerge
• Lose
• Mystic Chanting
• Overlooking Guardia Millenial Fair
• Receive Money
• Time Portal Opens
• Traveling Through Time
• Wind

Additionally, one more unused song exists solely in the Japanese cartridge of the final game. A fanfare, its instrumentation was removed before the game was shipped, meaning the only way to listen to it is to manually assign instruments through codes.

Additionally, Mitsuda composed four new songs for the Playstation release. These are not available on any soundtrack:

• Rat-a-tat-tat It's...Mitsuda
• One Sunny Day When We Met
• Scattering Blossoms
• A Meeting with Destiny
• Time To Rest - After the Battle

The various 'reworked' soundtracks include the following:

• Chrono Trigger '99 (orchestral rearrangements)
• Brink of Time (jazz remixes)
