Sorry, I'm probably being really stupid here (I'm still a newb) but what exactly do you mean? One of the filters I've applied? I think I've got a chorus and some distortion on the lead guitar... Apart from that I think I've sorted the rest... (God knows why I had that static at the beginning... I actually don't remember putting it in- especially panning to the left.)

Okay this is it. Finalized. SplinterofChaos you were waaay right. I guess I'd just heard it too many times to notice. Again tell me what you think, I really hope this is done. >__< http://download261.mediafire.com/cwjf09jwtmdg/yfzmmlmycwv/Surface+Proximity+Warning+Take+3.mp3

Dude, best song evar. Chord sequence at the start (chromatic run up from the I minor with a V- Vminor- Root cadence) is like my all-time favorite chord sequence, evar. Just thought I'd add that. ^^

I actually really like the mix itself, and I freakin love 8-bit. (Yeah, I'm not going through all the melodies you've used ¬___¬) Oh and the cadence at 3:25 is the best bit ^^ I know it's only rough but are you planning on varying it a lil' more? Like building it up more? It's all overly a lil' similar. Also I thought the timps were a bit out of place soundwise- does that even make sense- you catch my drift? Please update this, the Great Sea is my favorite evar Zelda theme.

Freakin' ace! I'm (very) glad you liked it! I hadn't actually finished it... erm looped. >___> Ooh, mind you I am very much liking the whine idea. Mind if I steal? (like I stole the counter melody thing, thanks for that by the way) But yah, ending anytime soon.

Urrmm... Oh. http://download40.mediafire.com/ox3bi5b4cy4g/w2wmny3nzzw/Surface+Proximity+Warning+Take+2.mp3 That should fix it! n___n (plz no moar internez problmz) Read below for mah explanation.

Okay I've had a bit of time to work on this again so here's the update: http://www.fileupyours.com/view/223261/Surface%20Proximity%20Warning%20Take%202.mp3 I'm about halfway through the actual structure of it and I think it's pretty much gunna write itself 'till the end but any groundbreaking ideas overlywelcome. Gwah, the main problem is still the Slayer Guitars. Hopefully it's a improvement (probably only slightly- working on it). Panning reduced. Length increased. Oh and thanks chthonic, the Love Filter is actually freakin' useful! I tried to throw in some counter melodies towards the end (hopefully you'll recognise it as the Tetris A theme- everyone I showed really didn't get that)

Oh, well excuse my blatanly appaling sense of humor then.(I do that way too much -___-) Yeah I am seriously thinking about it, the guitars have always sounded 'thin' but lemme work at it myself for a bit and if I'm really really stuck then that would be freakin' ace!

Okay- I've been kinda busy lately so I haven't really worked on my mix 'till today, but heck- thanks for the comments! Rokin2Mordor: Yeah I know, drum panning's been changed, the guitar thing's a problem I'm quickly solving and heck the counter melody thing works! Thanks! Chthonic: I'm messing around now with effects on the guitar- howeeeeever I'm not gunna give away all mah credit yet 'till I'm really stuck. FinalTrigger85: Thanks very much!! Yeah currently working on all that stuff. (Especially length) Okay- should update real soon.

The mild key clashes are intentional actually. Kinda highlights the fact the source has this chromaticism thing going. (F#Major in the key of C!?) Yeah and close to source too. I might try building up the texture actually... It's kinda marchy do maybe I need a rolling snare... Hrmmm...

I dunno... I wondered how well received a 'chiptunemix' would be (with non 8bit instruments too- it would get a lil' boring otherwise I guess) so wondered whether or not it would be worth it. Yeah- I guess you're right about the bass- I'm gunna mess about with all the tracks anyway. I would very VERY much like to see (hear) four bit... Freakin' ace...

Thanks for the advice, just need a bit of time to think about where to go next... Yeah- see what you mean about the guitars. I'm still getting use to that FL's pluginny thingy- it's slowly sounding better so the lack of quality is a lil' learning on my part. Yeah- a bass part wouldn't be too hard to write, does sound a bit thin actually... However- are there rules on good drum panning? Personally I thought the panning was alright... Ah well, I'll tone it down and see what happens! n___n

Okay yeah it's short, a chiptune mix and Pokémon but heck, it's just an experiment. Pokémon "Show Me Around": http://www.fileupyours.com/view/223261/Pokemon%20Around%20Remix.mp3 Any advice/I hate 8bit comments completely wanted. ^w^ (Oh, and its NOT finished- that's why it's incredibly short.)

So yeah, haven't really done anything in a while (more like ever) so thought I'd upload this. Okay, yeah, I know it's the same source before, it's just coincidence I 'spose. Anyways- here it is, a remix of Gameboy Tetris "Song B". (It's actually some Russian folksong or something if I'm right so I hope it counts on OCR...) http://www.fileupyours.com/view/223261/Surface%20Proximity%20Warning.mp3 Feel free to criticize as much as you like. I'm still pretty much a newb and would love to know how to better myself. ^^ I hope you enjoy it anyway. (Oh, and it's not actually finished- it just loops towards the end)

Okay, right, I hope this is better- I've tried to sort out the balance issues and generally tone it up a bit. http://www.fileupyours.com/files/201567/Last%20Thirty%20Lines%20Take%202.mp3 Let me know what you think! ^^

Wow! A lil' short to say anything major, but awesome. Love the reverse drums at 0:30- this could be better than the original! ^^ (Edit- Yeah, it is improved. The engine sample at 0:33 is ace, I love sampling!)

Thanks very much. Urm, the programs I'm using... Sibelius to write the stuff out, a soundfont programme then some audio editing software to wrap it off. I know it's stupid, but I'm a lil' new at this and don't really know what programs to start off with... ( Oh and glad you liked the chiptune, I freakin' love NES Square n__n )

Despite the amount of source you've got for this, it's really good. I'm no critique but in my opinion it was a lil' repetitive, however I guess it's a lil' harsh to say that seeing as the original is only a few bars long. The instruments however didn't sound as robotic as earlier posts made them out to be... Anyway this was ace. I'd love to see how you improve this one! ^^

Well, guess this is my first post... I'm pretty new to the whole 'digital arranging' thing so if this sucks don't be too hard on me! ^^ So yeah, after rediscovering my old GB Tetris the other day I decided that Tetris' soundtrack is really depressing, despite having chord sequences that could potentially be nice! It's basically a medley of "Tetris B", the rocket-ending bit and a bit of "Tetris A". Just in case y'don't know them the originals are here: http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/nintendo/gameboy/Tatrisa.mid http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/nintendo/gameboy/Tetrisb.mid http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/nintendo/gameboy/rocketshootsoff.mid I really don't have any good programs to edit this in so I really hope this has come out okay. Here it is, "Last Twenty Lines": http://www.fileupyours.com/view/201567/Last%20Twenty%20Lines.mp3 I'd love to hear what you think of it and how I could improve it. -ProtoDome
