Goddammit, you guys should come to A-Kon. >:

Thanks so much for the quick reply. Do you have any recommendations for me, as far as software goes?

So, I've had the desire to remix music and compose music of my own for a long time...but the only thing that's been stopping me is the fact that I do not have access to any kind of MIDI input device (no keyboard, no nothing), and I probably never will. Please don't tell me to go out and buy one, it's not that simple. I was just wondering if there is any software that lets me select instruments, and draw in the notes...like VOCALOID does. Is there any way around my lack of a keyboard?

Snaps. Legend of Dragoon isn't on the list. You know how hard I would have jumped on that. ...in that case, I'd have to say Kingdom Hearts II. Edit: Eek. Delayed response.

I'm having one big, long gasm of anticipation.

Thank you guys so much for doing this.

The Legend of Dragoon may not have what you're looking for, but the soundtrack is quite inspiring.

I'll give that a try, then. Thank you both~ =]

I've already given it as much consideration as I can, but the fact is that I don't have the technology, nor the money for the technology, to remix on my own. I have a lot of pride, and I would have much preferred to do these myself. But I can't. It's as simple as that. That wound is already salty, please don't rub it. Not to mention, bumping up the thread with a comment rather than the word 'bump' doesn't constitute 'giving up' in my mind. No, I haven't given up, and I don't plan to give up. This game deserves a lot more credit than it has gotten in the past, and if nothing else I've at least accomplished the tiny feat of sharing it with others.

Mmmhmmm. o__o; Well, this works.

Yes. There has been another Legend of Dragoon thread...but I have my own requests that I'd like to shed a little more light on-- The original tracks can be found here at Blue Laguna: http://bluelaguna.net/music/lodost/mp3s.php. First and foremost, I'd love to hear a relaxing and powerful remix of "Royal Castle". I've heard people take a messy electronic/techno approach to this song, and I can't agree that such a style takes advantage of the great potential this song has. I also love the sound of Lloyd's Theme, Grassy Plains, Whispering of the Trees, Forbidden Land, Dead City, and the Ending...and I don't have much of a preference of style with any of these. Not to mention, a mix of all four "Last Battle" themes in one might be interesting. You know, one song at a time but with a nice transition into the next? This is quite a fun game, if you have the time for the four-disc adventure. Thank you for your time.

*raspberries* >: Someone needs to get cracking on a Legend of Dragoon project. I would...if I could remix to save my life. But I can't.

Oh Heavens above. This is such torture on my little heart...! I can't listen to the new mix on this machine; I think I'm going to burst. And I still can't get over my hopes for a "Royal Castle" mix-- my lack of technical skills be damned. I'm still sticking with my thought of either a single instrument, or an entire orchestra performing the piece, though I'm obviously open to hearing anything at all. Much love and support to you all~ <3

I lack the technical skills for a decent remix, so I'll stick to promoting the cause and supplying fan-art. It's all I'm good at. :'3 "Royal Castle" and "Ghost Ship"...? Wow; I'd never given that any thought at all. I was wanting "Royal Castle" all on its lonesome...you know, as an orchestral piece or something for a single instrument. Oh Heavens. Can you imagine how it would sound on an armonica? You know the one, that instrument Benjamin Franklin invented? I get chills just thinking about it.

>: "Black Water" was the whole reason I wanted the soundtrack. After I obtained it, all of the other fantastic songs jumped out at me...but "Black Water" was the only one in the movie that stuck as I watched it. Aside from "One-Winged Angel", of course. I know I'm being so cliche...but I thought they did a nice job with it. :'3

Sorry it's taking me so long to get you the links. >_>; I've been grounded; I'm on a different computer. *grr.* Mmkay...I thought I'd hit another Aerith-hater. Heads would've rolled, and such. :'D I agree with you completely.

Eee~! I always used Aerith, right up until her end, and I did just fine! >__<!! Acutally, would THAT be a good idea for a sequal? Telling a story of, like say, that painter girl, who searches for Lavitz? Oooh...I'd love to read/play/whatever a sequal from Guaraha's perspective...! :'D! <3333 Do you want the three I found? They're quite good. There's a techno remix of "Royal Castle" (which isn't really what I've been looking for. :/ ), a remix of "Wingly Forest", and one of the Mille Seseau map theme.

Thank you very much~ >D The fact that you started this thread brought me to repect you greatly from the start~ I wish there was more feedback on people promising to do remixes, though. I've had an insatiable longing for new Legend of Dragoon remixes, and after searching all over the internet, I could only find three complete ones. Any other places you suggest I could look? D: ...Lavitz's ship sailed away. TT__TT

I wouldn't think that it'd be way far in the distant future; that's a bit cliche. :'3 I'd make it right after the crisis, when people are weak and still trying to recover. ...but I think Albert and Miranda should have a son who is a sex-a-holic. So maybe my opinion isn't too great. xD

Naw, I got it to work~ :'D And I saw what you had posted on your other thread, about maybe using a small ensemble; that would be great, seeing as you're already off to what sounds like a great start. ^o^;

D: Sorry to hear that~ Hope things start looking up for you; my life has been pretty much circling the drain for the past few days. Stress. You know. Makes everything else that used to be fun seem so foggy, doesn't it?

It's absolutely killing me that I haven't been able to listen to it yet, so I'm going to see if I can right now~ My Windows Media Player has been less than reliable when dealing with .wav files. D:

Ahahaha. >D! I particularly liked that one, though I give you points because it was a little repetitious. Wouldn't it be awesome if someone did a mix of all four Final Boss themes put together? O:

o.o Oooh~ I like Sendspace.com pretty well, but it may be too cluttered for your preference...

I didn't mean it as a bad thing, at all. It's strangely close to the name of a friend of mine that I haven't seen in a few years. So my predisposed bias towards you is actually quite good. ;D Unless you don't want that kind of judgement either...
