Kat got a reaction from Master Mi in The best electric guitar VSTis out there
OTS has some wonderful instruments. I'm a huge fan of their Passion Flute VSTi. As far as guitars go, Impact Soundworks has some really nice ones(including a free version of Shreddage 3 Stratus).

Kat got a reaction from HoboKa in With regards to ToU C
...I'm not seeing what the problem is. I'm pretty sure djpretzel already cleared that one up...
...And gave you a remedy if you do find one with excessive silence, while also clarifying that the no editing clause is mostly for redistribution. No one is stopping you from trimming the silence. FBI agents aren't going to show up at your house with warrant because you removed 3 seconds of silence at the end of a song. Several people have already clarified that these aren't intended for BGM and that if you want loop-friendly versions you should contact the original artist - and you should do that anyways if you want to use them, even if it's non-commercial.
Really not sure why you're making this out to be a problem.

Kat got a reaction from HoboKa in MnP 101: Triple Entry Round!!?? Madness!! Madness I say! Oh, the Humanity~
Biggest issue with the Godzilla MIDI is was that it's at an astounding 12 BPM. Since it was written at 12 BPM to sound like 160ish BPM it's understandable hard to work with and must have been painful to sequence.
Anyways, I might do something for this round, considering how long it lasts,

If it helps, i made an alternative MIDI for Godzilla. I believe Brundeslang said the MIDI was quite hard to arrange, so er yeah...here ya go.
It's now in the actual tempo, includes percussion parts (Or the noise channel), and has everything quantized to the right beat.
Not that you have to use it or anything. It's there if you need it.

Kat got a reaction from DrewUniverse in Legend of Dragoon - Sadness Hero (Dart's Theme)
Just a simple piano arrangement of Dart's Theme. The title is clearly a bad pun based on the name of one of his Additions(Madness Hero). Yes, I feel bad. No, I don't regret it. Enjoy. Feedback is appreciated, as I think I may submit this at some point.

I feel like it could work if you either added some high hat open/close fills. Alternatively, you could bring in some marching-styled percussion towards the end as you build up towards another heavy section.

Kat got a reaction from Master Mi in Final Fantasy 7 - Fighting Fantasies
Having not heard the original version since you originally posted it it's hard to draw direct comparisons, but many of the prior issues still remain. I still believe it's far too long. Right now you're still recycling the same segments over and over with very little variation, outside of instrument swaps. The brief flute solo at 4:42 was a nice change, and following it up with those piano variations was great, but you quickly went back into the same cut-and-paste segments, just with different instruments. I don't have a ton of time to go over everything, but I'll outline a few specific points:
The good:
- A lot of the solo/variation/etc writing is pretty solid, even if it's not particularly complex.
-While there aren't a lot of dynamic variances, the mixing itself isn't bad.
-The intro is still really nice. It had a fair amount of build-up and left me wondering where you would go.
The bad:
-The length of the song does not match the amount of content. I'd again suggest severely cutting the length of the song and focusing on the arrangement.
-A lot of the instrumentation is still very robotic. Some of it could be attributed to lower quality samples, or perhaps not using the samples correctly. For example, staccatos at 3:28. As they're taking over the lead, it feels kind of odd writing it like that. A more flowing sustained section might work better, especially if you happened to have a well-timed brass section swell up alongside it rather than simply chugging along with the backbeat.
-The song still ends abruptly. Even a fade out would be preferable to that.

No problem. I, too, have seen some "different" variations. Things like "Stay in that fire, lady, get your back torn"(Instead of "So dare violate and get your back torn", which is what it does say) or "So violate an express-mic wave" which doesn't even make any sense. The official lyrics - particularly the rap portions - are pretty hard to track down, but I got them as close as I could get.

I'm known to post here on occasion. The guitar was nothing special, it's just Shreddage 1 with a couple tweaked ReValver 4 amp modules and some EQing

Still working on mine! I got a bit delayed by a sudden snowstorm(because Oregon never gets those) but I'm back home and back at work now.
