Silent Edge

I made a little piano interpretation of Metal Gear Solid 2's Skateboarding track. I'm not a real piano player, though. I decided to write it one evening to kinda challenge myself, wish I could actually play the piano! Anyway, I'd love to hear what you guys think about the track in terms of what it lacks/what's cool in it. Arrangement: http://soundcloud.com/im-limit-break/3-records-of-a-soldier-mgs2 Original:

Thank you! I'll try to make the sound with Massive's FM Mod Oscillator

I'm trying to make a bass similar to the one in these songs from Bear McCreary: (00:22) (00:54)It's a layered bass with an awesome stereo effect. I was able to synthesize its sub bass, but I'm having difficulties to make that top 'gritty' bass! Does anyone know how to make such thing? Please?

Yeah, that might be because there's actually no post production yet, I wrote this sketch very fast, and with a different computer than mine, so I had to leave post-production behind and focused on the development of the track only. I'll post produce and continue it on my computer as soon as I get home!

After a long time of silence, here I am, back on ocr forums! I'm the guy who attempted production a couple of years ago by writing two Final Fantasy arrangements as a start, but they really weren't so good... (You can find them here [FFVIII] and here [FFX]) I eventually left production behind for a while, but lately I started studying and applying it very seriously. The following is a little sketch of a Zelda rearrangrment I wrote in the last two days. It's much higher level from my previous productions, but there's still much job to do... So I'd love to hear what you guys think about this sketch! You can find it here: http://soundcloud.com/im-limit-break/deus-ex-machina-song-of-storms

Hey guys, sorry if I keep asking things. I was wondering how can I make the string-like sound that starts at the ?Thank you. Thanks for the help, I found it

Hello everyone I'm looking for a sound that I've heard plenty of times, but don't know how it's called, I just know it's a vocal sound that is heard in japanese songs (especially, in and in Naruto's Soundtracks as well)Does anyone know a sample library/VSTi for these kind of vocals??

Your advices are all precious, thanks guys I think I'll start by composing music I'd like to listen to, like SnappleMan said, and also experiment other genres when I get good at producing music. I don't want to learn to produce music for economical purposes... The reason why I want to make music is to spread messages all around the world in a language we all understand

Hey everybody, I've got a question for you How did you figure out your music genre? I'm attracted by alot of music genres and listen many of them all the time. Now that I finally have the time,I want to start composing/remixing... but I don't know which genre to use. How did you choose yours?

I bet we're all Uematsu fans out here, well, this make the winning chance really low, but I still wanna partecipate

I see I would never had figured out those things myself, so thank you very much for your critiques, I really appreciate that Now that I know where I'm lacking, I do know where to work on. And I will!

Thanks for your advices The problem is that my laptop's not enough powerful to add more things to this piece, but I'm planning to get some new hardware, so I'll review it completely after I'll buy my new pc. Damn, I was so optimistic and naive I didn't even consider that xD I guess you're right, this is not the right one to begin with! (at least, for now..)

So I made up a few changes again, I softered the piano like Rozovian suggested me, and I added a fully wet-reverbered piano on the back. I made some minor changes on the whistle too, and I increased the master volume, wich was too low before. In some parts the piano and the whistle are still playing in unison, I haven't find an alternative melody yet, plus, it looks like I'm really near to the limit of my laptop's capacities, and you might notice that if you listen to the song carefully.. I wanted to add more things, like atmospherical effects sounds ('cause it's the Thunder Plains!) but I need a more powerful computer to do so. The big lack in this one is that it's not really well-mastered, I've learnt so many things in a little time, but mastering is still kinda unkown to me (compressors and other stuffs, I'm just able to use equalizers xD). This might sound you crazy, but I'm seriously thinking about submitting this one, although it's a 99% it will get a *NO*, it's still a good way to let the judges read my name at least once, 'cause I'll come back with better ReMixes until I'm not part of you OCReMixers!

Damn, guess I'm stuck again! I need to find the choir that is used in this Ragnarok Online BGM, , but I have no idea of this kind of choir's name, I think I heard it somewhere else too, does anyone knows the precise name of this kind of choirs?I'm really in need of it right now x_x

I felt there was something wrong in the piano velocity, but I wasn't so sure, now that you confirmed that, I'll definitely lower it! The piano & whistle unison is the proof of my low level skills in this field, infact I never thought of alternating them, I must try that out! Thanks for your advices, Sir

I bought myself a pair of new headphones, and I noticed the big mistakes that were in this song x_x I've tried to correct the whistle and the piano, and added some percs to make it better.. Now I want to add a permanent rain effect with thunders too, but I'm working on another project at the moment. Link: http://tindeck.com/listen/wbuy

This is my favourite FF IX Remix of the site so far, and I've heard 'em all! I think you should submit this

This might be the last update to my first attempted rearrangement, I don't have neither the skill, nor the knowledge to complete it in a good way, but I spent some hours on it, rebuilt it all by using the little skills I have acquired in these late months! Imma leave this project like this for a long time I guess, 'cause I have other simpler projects in my mind right now! The next one will be another FF8 track rearrangement, I think!

I need tubular bells so bad, I tried some synths or soundfonts, but I couldn't find anything good enough Please help T_T

This is my second work, made with FL Studio.. Well, I haven't finished my first work yet, but I suddenly got the inspiration for this one, and I immediately wrote it down! It's an arrangement of the Thunder Plains theme from Final Fantasy X in ambient style, or at least, that's the style I want to give to this song. The funny thing is that I got the inspiration while I was whistling this song, I realized that a 'whistle version' of it would've been kinda cool, so I tried to make one myself and I managed to arrange it in ambient style. The song's not complete yet, I should add something more to make it more tasty , and the ending's missing! (I still haven't figured out a possible ending for the song, actually..) There's much work to do but I wanted to post a preview version for it, please leave me some comments! Even bad ones are well accepted, as you might've noticed I'm totally a novice in this field, I need some advices/critics from elders y'know I prsonally think I should change that whistle synth, also, I need a mute triangle so bad, but I can't find one >_> Source: Link: http://tindeck.com/listen/vuip

I will! I'm kinda new to all of these things, it's a new world for me.. but I've read some tutorials on this site and I'm starting to understand how these basiliar things work!

Thanks for the advice, anyway, good news! I just found a good open triangle sample, I just have to make a mute triangle by modifying this one, so I'll just have to make it shorter as you told me.. This work can be done on Wavepad, right??

I'm looking for a good Triangle (percussion) VSTi or soundfont, I need the both open & mute sounds, I've surfed the net in search of it, but I found only a mediocre soundfont.. Didn't want to ask help for this one,but.. x_x Do you guys know any?
