Probably your size parameters are different from mine, so I'd better ask: which size would fit a 1.70m (5'7'' right?) thin guy (which, coincidentally, is me (
no...)) ?Man, these are getting sold like water in the desert...

I listened to both Krispy and SnappleMan's songs, and both are really marvelous. Thank you.
But this will not be the final version. I still got some velocities to fix in the midi, I'll post the new link here when it gets ready (I hope by the weekend or a few days later). I still don't know if I'm just correct what's wrong or play everything again to make it more natural... If anyone could give me a light...
-
I noticed I gotta come here more frequently to know everybody a lot more. From this point of view, it really sucks to be a newbie, but you all had to go through this stage, right?
I'm only aware fo each one's specific capabilities from what I just heard from you all. For better judgement, I suppose I gotta give everybody a chance, even because there a really huge probability of all of you being better than myself (I would give this chance to myself too, but I'll take two weeks, I think, to get my new PC). So, if Kanjika, Krispy, or anyone else want and could do me this big favor, here's the link to the file:

I sent the MIDI to KFC already, but thank you, Kanjika and Krispy, anyway.
Good to see we can count on a lot of people. That's the spirit of a site project!

Lol i hope its not that free Steinway B. That thing wont do your track justice!
I do too but, now that you said, I think it is...
EDIT: I just found it again in the net:

It`s a Steinway Model-C (7foot,5inch) grand piano.

HELP
:!: I just left the studio where I was going to record my piece, but their soundcard doesn't accept soundfonts... I need someone to do me a BIG favor: export my MIDI to MP3 with a soundfont, until Saturday (the deadline). Whoever has this spare time, just post here or e-mail me, and I will give the links to the MIDI and the soundfont (by the way, a marvelous Steinway soundfont). I really wanted to do it at home, but my soundcard is too old to accept the pedal changes of the MIDI.
Thanks!
P.S.: Unfortunately I will only answer tomorrow, 'cause I gotta study to Physics test.

How much does it cost? There's no need to panic too much about donating a bit of cash for doing a remix, i assure you.
The big problem is not about this song, but having to use the studio every time I want to record any remix, since I'm slowly getting experience as time goes by (and I hope I start composing more too), even though I got lots of university things to do. If I could do it at home, I bet it would give much less headache.

I found a studio yesterday where I could record my piano mix, so anybody who had to hear it won't have to worry anymore about the sound quality. It's a little expensive to use it, though, so I'm now looking for a software like the one I saw there. I believe it's a MIDI editor, but, unlike mine, this one allows changing dynamics and exporting to WAV. But that one is for Macintosh, and I'm looking for one for Windows. If anybody know anything that could help, just reply here:

If I can't get what I need, I guess I'll just pay
and use the studio... -
Mind, in terms of general arrangement, I felt that much of the compositional foundations have done well to add a more reflective side to the Chrome Gadget status (which in turn got more frantic as time managed to go on). I can still sense the theme there - a very thoughtful variation on the source by that aspect. It may be argued that it seemed to go against the frantic nature of the racing stage, however given the basic landscapes of the level itself I can easily imagine one of those reflective moments while residing within that zone itself.
But I have to agree with Sithlord that the quality seemed to be rather ridden with noise. I think the problem with that might have been that you ended up recording the track, then normalising it to its peak straight afterwards - big mistake, and that's what I learnt with my initial variation on Tomorrow's Wake. I suggest that before recording you test the mic input - make sure that the input levels are as high as they can go without clipping or peaking, and once that's done you're ready to be able to record.
I hope that helps you. If not, let me know.
Well, thank you very much.
Actually I wasn't thinking of any of your comment when I was composing, I was just doing it as to make it the most different of the original and similar to a piano composition possible without losing its basic form. 
I really would like to comment on your mixes (you all) too, but I'm too inexperient, probably I'd say a lot of things but nobody would agree...
-
Hey, Rexy, could you give me two hands, please? I listened these days to your S&K piano solo remix, Tomorrow`s Wake, and it`s so wonderful!! Could you comment on mine, please? And also, how did you record it?
BTW, KFC, it`s so generous of you to put my mix on the middle line. I know something like that would never enter a serious project...

So everybody needs to go to page 66 to get mine.
Ivory Gadget, WIP #2: http://hetcenus.sitesled.com/IvoryGadgetWIP2.mp3
Still really low quality, sorry for that. I hope you all don't kick me out... although there were some problems I could've fixed, which I didn't because I had little time to record it (if anybody cares, calculus test coming up). Probably I'll make a better recording by the end of the week.
OK, back to the discussion...
-
IvoryGadget:Huum... I think emotionally you found your way pretty nicely, but I have a few complaints. First of all, you are right, the recording is really bad, also I think your playing is a little bit static on the beguining (im no pianist, so I can't say for sure, im just telling how I feel
), the arregement pleases me a lot, but there's repetition in the middle... Nice WIP so far, but there are things to be fixed, I think.Thank you for the comments. Actually, I tried to sound a little melancholic at the beginning. But the repetition in the middle is just that lack of creativity a talked about and on which I'm working now. But I thought, what's the problem? It's just a WIP it's not the final song. And I had to meet the deadline.
-
I need help! The FTP I would upload my file to has been having trouble. Can anyone do it for me? E-mail me at hetcenus@yahoo.com.br and I'll send the file. Thank you.
EDIT: Got it. Problem solved. Here's the file
http://hetcenus.sitesled.com/IvoryGadgetWIP.mp3
As you see, the name of the song is Ivory Gadget. Guess why... Actually I thought of giving it a name like Hard-Yellowish-White-Substance-Used-In-Piano-Keys Gadget, but it would be too long. It's a piano-solo version of Chrome Gadget.
Bad points: Low quality (I'm trying to do a better recording), I couldn't make the melody sound more different from the original and I'm still looking for other arrangements for the left hand. This lack of creativity is killing me...
Good points: I leave it to the listeners.
Thank you again!

I'm here just to say I didn't drop the project. But I'm waiting for my broadband internet and, till there, no connection at home. So, I'll be lucky if I upload my WIP till April 9th. Hope you don't kick me if I can't... It's already done, though I still think it needs more original material, since I've been lacking creativity since... when I was born
. All I can say about it is: it's an almost 6 minutes long live piano solo remix. BTW, I don't know why, the quality of the recording is really low . Can anyone help me?And sorry, I'm not hearing the WIPs. It'll ruin the surprise...
-
What does WIP mean....?
Work in Progress.
WIP is just for a rough ground of what you're doing with the song, where it's going, what it sounds like etc. Just so we know you aren't gonna fuck it up.Thank you both for helping me. You still gotta teach me Internet English a lot more...
Anyway, it's more or less what I had thought. I hope I upload a WIP by next week (although I still think it's a little weak)
-
What exactly does WIP mean? I kind of deduced it from other topics, but I'd like to be sure? If it is what I think it is, I'm only waiting for a mic here.
PS: I haven't come for more than a week, I think, so I lost 15 pages or so. I still didn't read them... due to 9600 bps connection at 1:00am.
-
Although I think April 9th is a fine deadline for the WIP, maybe I won't be able to upload it. I have problems... I started university last Monday, in another city, going back and forth every day, I can only use the (crappy) internet on Sundays and daybreak, and I got real hardware trouble here...
SOMEBODY HELP ME
BTW, It's almost 6:00am here. Gotta go.

Since everybody is taking the songs, I would like to get one too. Let me try Chrome Gadget, OK?
And I think we forgot a track on the list. Since Lava Reef Zone has two very different OST's (and the LRZ Act 2 is exactly like Hidden Palace Zone), we should consider two tracks for them.
-
Just started downloading:
Speed in KB/sec: 1.5, 1.6, 1.5, 1.4...
That's life
BTW, I don't know if you guys realized when counting tracks for S3&K, but the OST's for both acts of a same zone could be considered as only one, since they're only variations of one another...

Quick question: is Eon_Blue going to finish this great cover or is someone else doing another one?
