The original musical score for Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic was composed by Jeremy Soule. The award-winning composer was signed to compose the game's score in 2002. Soule was unable to write a full orchestral score for Knights of the Old Republic due to technical limitations: "At the time we only had an 8 megabit per second MIDI system. That was state of the art... I had to fool people into thinking they were hearing a full orchestra. I’d write woodwinds and drums, or woodwinds, horns and drums, or strings and drums and brass. I couldn’t run the whole orchestra at once, it was impossible." Many of the cues composed for Knights of the Old Republic have gone on to be used in subsequent Star Wars games such as Star Wars Galaxies.
