djpretzel Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Again, need the original, but I don't remember anything sounding too awful close to this in GG or GGX. -djp game: Guilty Gear (also in Guilty Gear X, Guilty Gear XX) remix of: 'Suck A Sage' (Chipp's Theme) remix title: Suck A Synth remixer name: fatalM4 website: for a series of games with such a great soundtrack, it's surprising to see zero remixes of it! here's my stab at an electronic version of 'Suck A Sage' (who knows about that name, huh?) this is my first submission to OCR but i've posted quite a few songs (and an early version of this) on the WIP forum. ~fatalM4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liontamer Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Sorry I don't have the original on me, but I'm familiar with the original (GGX version). These electro-support chords are different, but the melody is verbatim, so I'm not really feeling this. Certainly hearing some slight rearrangement ideas on the lead (:47, 1:45-1:50). Some bad notes at 1:06-1:07. The lead synths are either really high-pitched or bubbly; it really puts me off. By 2:11 & especially 2:27 this is just retreading the same territory with some very minor additions. Honestly gets boring after a while like this. Some harmonization joins in at 3:06, but it didn't mesh well at all to me. There's not much development/progression with the support elements here, which isn't gonna work when that's where the majority of the rearrangement changes you've made are at (beyond the genre change). Go for more, please. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
analoq Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 maan, i really wanted to pass this after hearing that opening groove. but then that annoying distorted filtenv synth comes in and just makes me irate. that kind of sound does not function well as a melodic component in this context. it doesn't blend in well. also some of the chordal sounds near the end are on the weak side, but that opening is so tasty. resubmit...! no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protricity Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 You can just tell everything here is a preset. Not a bad thing, but like analoq said, you cant really get the exact sound you want when you rely on presets. Not too bad a song, pretty borderline over all. Several iffy sections make it below the line for me. The cut-res square synth at 1:00 for one, the empty section at 1:20 for another. You aren't too far below the bar, so keep at it.

Digital Coma Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 Yes, that distorted synth is very annoying as a melodic instrument. The rest of the instrumention is alright if not terribly interesting. There's a lot of weird pitch bends with the lead glassy synth. The arrangement is alright (assuming it's a rearrangement), but somewhat repetitious. This is close to a yes with more change-ups of melodic leads, less annoying distortion and resonance, more accompaniment, and a better ending. I'd usually suck a dick, but I'll suck a synth if you resubmit. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
