    Mario Theme Song - notnamed

    Don't double post, Chessdude. Use the Edit Button.

    Also, Rozo, That's basically what I've been saying.

    Only use the keyboard if it's something you can't do on the computer, or if it's simply easier to do on the keyboard.

    sorry about double posting, still getting used to this. I'm new to forums

    I'll say what I said before...

    DON'T BUILD YOUR REMIX ON YOUR PIANO

    Did I not just say that or was I honestly dreaming?

    There are A LOT more Soundfonts than there is on that Yamaha thing. I have maybe 400 different sounds on my computer But my keyboard has like 20.

    Soundfonts and samples are the way to go.

    You can use your keyboard sounds but don't use stuff only from there... plus if it's a recording you have less flexibility with it. I'd recommend only doing the complicated piano stuff on your piano.

    alright, i'll stick with sound fonts for recording.

    Yes, and I'm still saying that I believe it's better to use FL (OR SONAR IF YOU PREFER) for remixes, and then the piano for your Live Stuff.

    You should download the free demo for FL. If you like it, you can buy it or you can stick with Sonar if it's too much of a change.

    I'm not trying to change the program you're using for remixes.

    My main point is to not build it on your piano.

    Ok.. I see. I'll try the demo of FL

    Also, you changed your story.

    In the beginning you were interested in remixing and you gave me (and probably others) the impression that you were gonna build the remix off of your piano, you never mentioned anything about live performances. So, my advice was useless.

    Halt, I still am interested in remixing, the same as earlier, and for remixing, I wanted to figure out if I'm able to use my piano for better sounds, your advice was not useless. It'll have several different uses. :-)

    He uses Sonar 6, so best for him would be to upgrade his sonar since it work best for his workflow. Second. George get that MO8. You playing on stage with that beast, with Randomonium.:razz:. I should one day come up there for like a week and go to one of your performances. I've heard you play piano... But with the band your in. It'd be killer.

    Also. DO NOT. Let your piano be your crutch. So your computer doesn't have the best sounds. Want a vst piano? ProteusVX is good. SOUNDFONTS. Go get some soundfonts. check this thread

    Does sonar 6 have a soundfont player?

    free sounds are all over, just have to find the good ones. :P

    Thanks Halt! well, if Sonar has a soundfont player, I'm not sure, but VST Piano? what's that? And yes, you should come up here. -_- you need to. It's in your destiny xD

    Don't even bother with that Yamaha...

    Use the money for a program called "FL Studio" it's AMAZING comes with a wide variety of sounds you can use, plus a hell of a range of effects you can add like reverb, delay, phasing, love philtering, and all this cool stuff. It lets you write songs by using a pattern system. What you write in one pattern can be duplicated, all you have to do is write the melody in the piano roll and put the patterns in a line on the playlist.

    You can layer different patterns (ex. Pattern one is the first drum beat and pattern two is my second. Pattern 3 is my transition between parts of the song. Patterns 4 and 5 are my A and B sections. I start off the song like you did with pattern one going for two measures, then I add in pattern 4 while pattern one is still going. They both go like that when I put pattern 3 right at the end for a transition and then patterns 2 and 5 play)

    Sir, I'ld like to inform you that I'm using Sonar 6 producer edition, and the reason I'm buying a new keyboard is not ONLY for recording, but I play live gigs as well, and also, home use. I wanted a nice keyboard that has a good piano feel and good sound to thats in my budget. don't get me wrong, I've heard alot of good things about FL, but it's kinda like if your saving up for a telescope and you end up buying an Xbox 360. It doesn't suit your needs.

    well, I'm trying to find something out with a new mix, but yeah, I pretty much only use GM. I want to start using more of my keyboards sounds because the sounds in my computer pretty much suck, but the onse in my keyboard arn't that great either xD I'm saving up for an Yamaha MO8. estimating I'll have enough money by November/December. I'm currently using a PSR-293. but back to the song, like i said earlier, When I made it, I didn't undersatand what remixing was really, I thought that you just take a song and change the beat of it and add a little bells and whistles to it, I know that's way off now xD so I'll work on a new mix for it :-D

    Well, thanks everyone for the advise and help, As for the abrupt ending, the song wasn't actually done yet, so that's temporary, I'm going to try re-making the entire song from scratch because, I thought that remixing was where you take a song and just change the beat and style of music, but I'm going to try making a version that's more original. but thanks for all of your opinions and help

    ok, but I got a question also, I'm not trying to sound like a smart ass or anything, real question. Am I supposed to write my own song? or is remixing something completely different from what I thought? I thought I was supposed to basically just put a new beat to it, well, I'ld appreciate a reply, thnx
