Something I put together on my phone using Caustic. I'm working 25 plus hours of OT a week, so breaks at work are the most time I have to do anything like this. Feedback please. Remix Original

This is a wip remix of Mara and Nara's theme from DW4. I only have a minute or so of it done, I'm looking for feedback on what I have so far. Thanks! Twisted Sisterz2.wav

Sil, I would like to thank you for your feedback on orchestral arranging. I just got a couple sample libraries, and I think your tips will really help out. I feel like a child trying to swing a large sword, I think your advice will help me wield that weapon more effectively:)

My remix https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_XdxrFYU2koMloBxSJ87NkWr5Y-McoLg/view?usp=drivesdk Original I believe this is ready for mod review. Thanks for ALL constructive criticism ahead of time!

Awesome, thanks for this reply. I figured as much, it's nice to hear some confirmation:)

So I'm sharing this again;) I've been fooling around with Cakewalk, FL Mobile, Caustic...and FL Studio Producer edition. I did all of the arranging for this tune in Caustic for Android. I tweaked the final sound (with my limited knowledge) with FL Studio 20. I have been fooling around with the different DAWS I just mentioned, and for some reason, so far, this is my favorite product. I don't get much time these days to fool with music. I like how this sounds, it reminds me of MOD files from back in the day. I wonder if this remix sounding this way would ever pass the panel...I believe chip tunes have made it through, I wonder if this style would ever pass, as an artistic choice. I would appreciate some constructive feedback! EpicFootStepsCaustic.wav

So yeah, this is something that has gone through quite a few permutations, and this is my latest attempt:) This was completely done on my phone, mostly during breaks at work, as I have very little time to do anything musical at all at home...I have a toddler;) Most of this was done with Fruit Loops Mobile, with an excerpt from Caustic...the vocoder part. I did a quick and dirty master with the Caustic mastering app. I appreciate the feedback the judges have given through this process...and I have tried to apply their critiques. High pass filter set low frequency, so cool. I appreciate and wish for feedback, Thanks!:) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CNSnJLjYjUOpeKlf0TUSajeFjPxAmrRd/view?usp=drivesdk

Latest rough version of WIP:) https://drive.google.com/file/d/148kPjhfqtzco3JqPa-vD9YZqH-h5M3cN/view?usp=drivesdk

So this is something I just started. It's made using Caustic, an Android app on my phone. This is just the beginning of it. The sound of it is a little inspired by Raiden's Mortal Kombat theme, so I made a cheeky name up for the tune. Thanks for the listen!

It allows 14. I handed the different parts, minus the bass, around the different "machines" placed in the app. I wanted to get a little bit of a feel for each one...and each of them are stripped down versions of full synths, such as a saw, FM, subtractive, etc. It's called Caustic, and it is free to try, minus export and saving on Android. There is also a version you can download for windows which is completely functional. It's a fun thing to doodle with, and I think it will help me learn on a full DAW as well:)

Damn, must be because I uploaded from my phone...from PC it Grant's permission automatically when you share a link. Let's see if I can fix it. Edit. Ok, I think it should play now.

This is something I put together during breaks at work. I have a toddler, so time for doing anything musical is pretty much nonexistent. It was made using an app called Caustic on my cell phone. It's a redo of something I have posted on the forums before under a different name. When I first heard the app, I immediately thought of the sound of mod music on an Amiga computer, so I went with it. I used every machine the app has to try them all out, instead of just using the ones I think work/sound better. Tell me what you think:) https://drive.google.com/file/d/12maAZAic9CGEE7uxC204r5BkOk9omcGu/view?usp=drivesdk

I made some adjustments, how does this sound?:) https://drive.google.com/file/d/18_SHAPTKIAORVq0P6YcpNAGUcVwHPwlo/view?usp=sharing

I was wondering about that lead guitar. Its spicy guitar being run through TH3, with some other effects as well, though TH3 is the majority of the effect. Because I know nothing of guitars, I thought if I added extra effects, it would sound intentional, if that makes sense. Believe it or not, because of not getting to be out and about lately, I got myself a cheap guitar, and have been tinkering with that;)

Sony MDR 7506. The thing is, is I have always had this issue with any headphones, even for just casual listening my entire adult life. I was trying to do "mixing" with earbuds, because you don't have to worry about having a pin head with earbuds;) For the same reason, I like listening to tunes through earbuds. So I've been taking an elastic strap and putting it around my head and headphones, therefor pressing the earpieces against my head harder. The sound difference is significant, even to my untrained ear. No, this is not an April Fools day joke...LOL! Also, I have read that people who have started listening to music through non bass enhancing headphones complain of a "tinny" sound....so perhaps I'm hearing the sound correctly if I don't have the earpieces pressed against my head with a strap? Any headphones I have ever worn feel wobbly and unsecured against my head....so I don't even know if that is a normal sensation or not. I thank you for your response, and any further responses ahead of time:)

I recently got a decent set of headphones, and I have a question. I notice that if I press the earpieces against my head with my hands, I get a much (what I perceive to be) better sound. Increased bass, volume, and clarity. Should I continue to put a strap around my head and headphones to maintain this sound? Does this throw of my perception of EQ? I have a small head. A google search was unsatisfactory. Thanks, and I apologize if this is a silly question ahead of time:)

That synth is awesome:) I liked this a lot:)

This is different than what I have tried before:) It's supposed to be a rock band playing the tune. I don't know guitar worth a damn, but I tried adding some automation to some guitar parts to make them sound more "human", but I didn't want to overdo it. Remix then original are posted. Thanks for feedback!:) Remix Original Remix https://drive.google.com/file/d/18_SHAPTKIAORVq0P6YcpNAGUcVwHPwlo/view?usp=sharing

I am inexperienced, and not yet posted here on OCRemixed, so take my advice with a grain of salt. First, I would like to say I like the tune, but I ask if the pumping starting at about 40 seconds, is it intentional? I'm not listening on optimal stuff right now, perhaps I'm hearing incorrectly:)

Hi:) I'm an amateur, and I'm not posted on OCR...at least not yet, but I will throw my two cents in since it was asked for. First, I would like to say I enjoy the tune, and the percussion sounds particularly nice:) Starting at about 1:00, there is a chime type instrument that I am hearing that sounds just a little too prominent, imo. At 1:14, there is an instrument ( A violin perhaps?) that comes in on a sustained B flat...that B flat and the other sustained B flats that follow on that instrument really stand out. Other than that, my amateur ear might suggest a boost on the master for the lows and low mids. Good luck, and I hope I'm not out of place offering my suggestions!:)

Thanks for the feedback!:) The organ is certainly different, it's a church organ layered with a rock organ. I got some other feedback recently, and made some changes based on that:)

Ok, so I am starting a new thread for this. This is quite a different take than I have done lately on this tune...and I can post all of the different versions that have been commented on if asked. This is my first version of this that is not done in LMMS, instead I have used Cakewalk for my DAW. There are things I couldn't get to work in LMMS that I can in Cakewalk, so I gave up on using LMMS for this submission. Also, this is done with VST's, as opposed to soundfonts, and I have finally started figuring out how to do some of the things I have read about on this side about production. Of course, I'm still a novice, but I think this is much closer to the mark than previous attempts:) Please please please, anyone who takes a gander at this, leave feedback, and thanks for the listen!:) https://drive.google.com/open?id=12WbmA6_ltLoA6XDeIDA42SXX-48WzsXz

Oops:) Thanks! I fixed it in my project, but probably wont upload until I've done further work on it.
