In ''Pikmin 2'', the trackMap files located in <code>/user/Totaka</code> and <code>/user/Wakai</code> respectively are responsible for mapping instruments into certain mixes. They also set which instruments will skip notes when a Pikmin has died and the player has less than 10 Pikmin. There can be a maximum of 32 entries in each trackMap file; the game will fail to read a 33rd entry.

They must be grouped sequentially; in this example, the first 4 instruments in the song will be in the main mix, the next 2 instruments will be in the task mix, and so on.<br>''Each mix must contain at least 1 track, as a mix with 0 tracks will not work. Additionally, the sum of all the tracks must not be greater than 16, which is the maximum number of tracks a song can have.''

* The 8 values at the bottom is a table for when notes will be skipped in the theme. This was left the same for every song in the vanilla game.<br>''Setting all 8 values to 0 will make it so there is no difference when the player loses a lot of Pikmin; if they are all set to 1, the instrument will practically disappear completely.''
