TotalAudio is a music and sound production company founded by Martin O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori, apparently incorporated officially under the name O'Donnell/Salvatori Inc. The company was contracted to score Bungie's games starting with [[Myth|Myth: The Fallen Lords]]. In 2000, Marty would join Bungie as an employee, but TotalAudio continues to operate (at least for the purpose of copyright maintenance and royalty collection). O'Donnell and Salvatori have individually gone on to compose for various games.

O'Donnell and Salvatori have individually gone on to compose for various games. Regarding Oni's music, O'Donnell stated in [https://halo.bungie.org/misc/nico_marty_interview.html this interview] that the first work on the soundtrack was done by Power of Seven and that TotalAudio then composed as much new music as they did, making the soundtrack a 50/50 product between the studios.
 
Regarding Oni's music, O'Donnell stated in [https://halo.bungie.org/misc/nico_marty_interview.html this interview] that the first work on the soundtrack was done by Power of Seven and that TotalAudio then composed as much new music as they did, making the soundtrack a 50/50 product between the studios. Since O'Donnell and Salvatori worked closely at the time, we do not attempt to distinguish which of the two men composed each piece assigned to TotalAudio in the table at bottom.


Based on findings by [https://odysseyaudio.org/ Odyssey Sound Team], who are recreating unreleased music that was produced by TotalAudio for Oni and other games, certain tracks can be assigned to TotalAudio based on the same synthesized instruments being used for Halo CE. These tracks include '''Searching''' and '''The Hunt''', as well as the music in the [[Music/Ingame#mus_amasian1|mus_amasian]] OSBD (named by fans as '''"Up and Away"''') and the ending of '''End Titles'''. The beats in '''Searching''', '''The Hunt''', and '''End Titles''' originally come from the E-MU Phatt Beats collection, which TotalAudio used in other projects; the unused Halo CE tracks [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8U53VnSjP94 HERE] and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puXwE00GGDM HERE] use beats from the same collection, as well as [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDVDwgCQ6Qo "A Walk in the Woods"] from Halo CE. '''"Up and Away"''' also shares samples with [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmMvyjuSa60 "Perchance to Dream"] from Halo CE and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIojM_JA2bU "Dream Again"] from Halo 3.
