Bit over your budget, but have you checked out Wallander?
http://www.wallanderinstruments.com/

There's a demo on the site too.

Sax, maybe 8-10 times, and lately for co-op work I've taking to splicing different takes together or just re-recording over specific sections, so no need to record the "perfect" take. For personal stuff, I pick the best take out of the 8-10 times and live with those mistakes.

mmmm Chrono Cross, Chrono Trigger, FF3, 6,7,8,9. Also, 80's pop works great for me
-
Seems like you are off to a good start - love darkstalkers! Look forward to when you get the rest of the parts in.
-
OT: I remember you got a fair bit of chip tunes, what do you use for them? Maybe run them through a bit crusher for more variety?
-
@Rexy: Thank you very much for the compliments

To alter the flow of chakra slightly, there is another 2 for 1 offer for the ewql libs going on till the end of the month. Tempted to get a vocal lib but I'm saving up for some wallander brass.

Hola!
Very nice take on this song. I'm a big fan of Outrun, nice job!

Hello mate!
Thanks for the crit on SC
Well appreciated.Also, the suggestion of adding different instruments, that is a very valid point that I will definitely keep in mind and use next time I work on the rhythm section.
Yeah I was quite taken aback by how much energy most of the other mixes were in the compo. When I was arranging this I was at a loss at how to make things more engaging, as I truly believed this needed to be on the more melancholic side.
I hope to re-orchestrate this as I just got vsl solo strings (like... yesterday...) and should be getting some brass & winds with proper legato in a month or two.
Cheers!

Really don't know what to say, 'cept you've got some really good stuff going!

Hi all!
The FF6 compo is complete! Woo!
I'm hoping to get some brutally honest, constructive feedback on this piece I worked on.

Source: Final Fantasy 6, "Rest In Peace"

I have little idea how to remix, and I approached this by playing the source, wiggle in some improv, then finish up with a solo fiddle playing the source. I had imagined, visually, this was several soloist playing a memoir for their friends.
Libraries used were mainly Logic's built in stuff, Garritan World Instruments for the fiddle, and EWQLSO for the solo trumpet/oboe.

Woo! That was fast, thanks Zircon!
Congratulations to the winners, you did good
I must work harder.... harder!!!! GRAAAH!

Yup got mine in the email.

Whew finally finished going through all of them. Damned awesome to hear the rest of the crew, there were some fantastic pieces in there, and the production levels are way beyond what I can achieve at this point in time. I know where I stand, like at the very bottom lol. Can't wait to see the final results.
-
Voters will be asked to consider the production values, arrangement creativity and overall enjoyment factor of each remix when deciding on their rating. A rating of "1" means that they feel there are major problems with production and arrangement and the mix is quite unenjoyable, while a rating of "5" means they feel the mix is perfect (or near-perfect) and extremely enjoyable.
What if the production values and arrangement are good - but I personally don't feel the music is to my enjoyment? Do we just average it out internally? (5+5+2)/3 = 4?
-
Wooo!!!!! It begins

Smells like what goes on the film vs digital. I think in the end, it is the content that matters, not the medium. See: old stuff made pre-digital still good 'cause the content is awesome. My 2p anyways...
Plus... I can't really afford a bricasti m7.....

@Zircon: Did you happen to get my submission? I submitted about 10hours ago, and just forwarded the email I sent to ff6@zirconmusic.com. The mp3 attachment is 3.4mb in size though...
-
Done and submitted. Now back to our regularly scheduled program...

I take back what I said about GPO's legato - I must have been doing something wrong, It is quite good for what it is!
-
Hola!
I just re-did a big portion of my mix with your tips, this time with EWQLSO. The overlapping of the notes plus attack time did *wonders*! Thank you very much!
Cheers for hunting down the GPO legato mode - I have used it, however, the legato segments sound very mechanical to my ears. I think I'm going to look into using more of SO. SO's quite re-verby, even with the close mics. I find it more challenging to fit together in the mix with my other non-SO instruments.
Thanks again!
-
Hi Moseph! Thanks for the clarification. I don't think I got attack timing there, but I will take another look at the sampler.
In GPO, the velocity of the note determines how much attack it has got, and the mod wheel determines volume. Maybe it's one of them CC controls...
That said, I am pretty sure I saw attack time on the Play sampler, perhaps it is time to make the switch to symphonic orchestra....
Cheers!
-
Thanks Moseph! I'll give that a go, pretty sure my notes are not overlapping.
Attack velocity wise they are at minimum, sadly the GPO samples are still very punchy :-/ Don't think I've got release control on GPO...
EDIT: I'm using them on Oboe and Trumpet.
Cheers!

You can use the modwheel or expression pedal if you don't have a breath controller.

Payday is coming, wivi band will be mine
Try the demo, it's very impressive for the price, I think only sample modelling's brass can one-up it but sample modelling is sooo expensive.
