Kioso Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Click! I'm so proud of how this turned out. X3 I was going for a movie soundtrack-type piece. I don't know, I thought it turned out really nice. Whoo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melbu Frahma Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I don't know if I'd quite call it "movie soundtrack," but it's definitely a fun and enjoyable piece - great stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kioso Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 Well I know it's not exactly as long as your average movie soundtrack would be or whatever but...eh...XD Glad you liked it. c: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solaphar Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 That tambourine (or whatever it is in my right ear) gets old quick. I'd suggest making it softer. At least it got quieter around 1'36, which was an improvement. You might also want to tweak the velocities on it to emphasize the beat by increasing the velocity of the hits that fall on the beats. It also sounds like it's just a tiny bit behind the beat. As it is right now, that shaker/tambourine is too static, and that's what makes it tiring. The rest of the percussion is okay. The rest of the instruments sound fine as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kioso Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 Yeah, I was beginning to think the tambourine was too loud. You might also want to tweak the velocities on it to emphasize the beat by increasing the velocity of the hits that fall on the beats. It also sounds like it's just a tiny bit behind the beat....Uh...this is probably a dumb thing to ask but can you explain that? XD; I'm still sort of a newb at this.

Solaphar Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Velocity just means the attack, basically. Like if you hit a key on the piano softly, the velocity for that particular note is low, but if you smash that key down hard, then the velocity for that note is high. In other words, bang the tambourine less hard in between beats you want to emphasize. VELOCITY - a measure of the speed with which a key on a controller is pressed. Used to determine volume characteristics of note. Velocity (Music & MIDI): - Denotes the speed or force with which a note has been struck. In MIDI , the "Velocity" of a note is a value between 1 and 127. The higher the value, the higher the force that has been used. Hope that's clear.

Kioso Posted April 7, 2010 Author Share Posted April 7, 2010 Oh ok, that makes sense now. c: Thanks! I'll work on it some more and see what I can come up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
