ellywu2 Posted November 27, 2004 Share Posted November 27, 2004 Florestan has a choir sample soundfont, and so does Palmedia, which has a choir humm and a single female voice. Whilst they sound wonky doing complex stuff, if you slap reverb on them, EQ the arse off them and generally add some string lines or something they can sound quite good.

Claado Shou Posted November 27, 2004 Author Share Posted November 27, 2004 Having heard your work before, Mr. Cox, and admired it very much, my answer is HELL YES I'll put you down, and send you your script portion immediately. Awesome development here, people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claado Shou Posted November 27, 2004 Author Share Posted November 27, 2004 Sorry for the double post, but using The Orichalcon's link, I've created a database of all the project files (music, documents, etc.) thus far. The address is http://eof.servehttp.com/ctproject, and though it has no design (yet), it's good enough for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russell Cox Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 http://www.geocities.com/trptcox219/WIP.mp3 I've only had a few minutes to work on this today, but there is basically the first 'scene' of my part. Marle and co. are at the top of Death Peak and prepare to use the Chrono Trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claado Shou Posted November 28, 2004 Author Share Posted November 28, 2004 Your first song in this long of an absence, and you decide to bless us with your presence. I salute, thank, praise, and adore you. BTW, what you have so far, cover it may be, is very nice. Very nice indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirRus Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 5 in the AM?!?! Yeah, I got back late Sunday night to my college where I had conveniently left all my music gear over break, so I decided it was about time to invest a couple hours into getting one of my two solo WIPs a-ready for the Dec. 1 "Even Crappy WIPs Will Keep You in the Project" Deadline. Here's the script that I tried to work into my song so far: INT. EARTH-TO-ZEAL SKYWAY - LATER The three come through the cloth-band door of the structure, and look at the dazzling site before them. On a pedestal in front of them, a beam of light sits on the ground, with a hole in the ceiling that it goes up through. Flowers and decorations are everywhere within the skyway. MARLE Wow...didn’t think I’d see something so pretty in such a desolate place. FROG An eerie feeling doesth haunt my thoughts. Shall we step into the portal? CRONO Well, we’ve already done it twice, and both times we ended up in a place not exactly to our liking. (rubs snow from hair) But you know, maybe the third time’s a charm. He steps up into the light with the others behind him, and they become three thin bands of energy that shoot into the sky and disappear. INT. ZEAL-TO-EARTH SKYWAY - CONTINUOUS The three materialize in a room exactly like the one they were just in. They look around. MARLE We didn’t go anywhere? CRONO (looking out door) Well, it’s not snowing... (listening) And there are people here. They walk out the doorway into the... INT. ZEAL PALACE - CONTINUOUS ...and gaze about at the things going on. Books are opening and shutting themselves, spewing fire and lightning and wind and water everywhere. People are casting small spells constantly, to light candles, to put them out, to fix a chair. FROG A city of magic. So the first minute of song is supposed to depict a beautiful/eerie scene... and then the transition to where they look upon the city of magic... I started to pick up steam at the end of the WIP, but all it is for now is a beat and flute lead. So yeah... that's really not all that exciting, but I promise I'll throw in a whole slew of wonderous instruments later.. when I don't have to wake up for class in 3 hours. Good Night Claado, et. al.

Claado Shou Posted November 29, 2004 Author Share Posted November 29, 2004 Good start, SirRus. And yes, I understand the need to study for finals and all that stuff. My condolences. ((BTW, you're not gonna get kicked out if you don't have a WIP ready. I just want to see some progress, that's all.)) Knowing your skills are a bit cramped at the moment, I won't even begin to critique the piece, since you will undoubtedly revise it when you have the chance. So, nice start...very evocative, very Zeal-quality, and very nice orchestration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reu Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Hi all. Here's my "WIP-so-I-won't-get-kicked-off-for-missing-the-dec-1-wip-deadline". XD http://www.reubenkee.com/music/remixes/To%20far%20away%20times.mp3 Its quite minimalistic, I think.... basically the goal of the arrangement was to try to understand the movements in the melodies and chords for a future revision. Not sure if this'll sound good with a couple of pianos and get more upbeat, or maybe stick to this style. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claado Shou Posted November 30, 2004 Author Share Posted November 30, 2004 That's awesome, dude. Very, very nice work. Definitely coming damn close to being perfect. Anybody else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasAce5 Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Yay! previews are due tomorrow! i cant wait! imo, i think the to far away times is not "lively" enough. its too quiet. sounds good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claado Shou Posted December 1, 2004 Author Share Posted December 1, 2004 As I said before, You're not gonna get kicked out if you don't have a WIP ready. I just want to see some progress, that's all. It's for my own personal reasons (which will soon be made clear) that I want something to work with, but if you have shit that needs done (you and SirRus are in the same boat, apparently), don't worry about it. School comes first, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellywu2 Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 Hey everyone. Well, my frog wip is up. Me and sephire havent actually started on our collab, but well its been a busy few weeks for both of us. Although when we do start it'll be awesome. Hope it all goes well everyone!

Gungriffon Geona³ Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 I have a question. what about the song "World Revolution"? is that going to be done as well? just wondering, since it is my favorite song and all. (not that it matters though.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claado Shou Posted December 1, 2004 Author Share Posted December 1, 2004 If somebody wants to use the source tune, that's up to them. Song usage is entirely up to the remixer. BTW, that is an interesting song. It would be a nice addition, if somebody would be so bold as to include it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy Emp Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 *sigh* I haven't been able to work on the second mix. I think I'll do better if I finish the first one before getting to another. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sephfire Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 Here's the early start for me and SirRus's collaboration piece. Track02 - Morning Sunlight I tried putting something together for the one ellywu2 and I are doing, but the result wasn't worth listening to so I scrapped it. Fortunately, finals will be over in a couple weeks and that'll make a big difference in everyone's productivity from the look of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claado Shou Posted December 1, 2004 Author Share Posted December 1, 2004 Very good opening. That's exactly what I had in mind...a peaceful awakening. Good shtuff. Other previews? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vgmusiclover Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 just read the script, and I thought that if you slightly remake the script (such as adding Ayla and Robo) and add in some more things from the game, it would make a miniseries, which I think would be better than a movie. No offence to anybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Hey guys; I've been really busy with school, swimming, and homework. I couldn't really pull out a wip for this one. I know I didn't meet the deadline, and I doubt I'll really be able to produce anything good in the future, so if anybody wants to take my song I'll be glad. I'll still do it though if nobody wants to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Heath Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Hey, I'm not very far with the song yet. So I'll get a preview up as soon as I've got something workable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claado Shou Posted December 2, 2004 Author Share Posted December 2, 2004 Alrighty then. I've pretty much come to the conclusion that finals, as well as several other undesirable events, have made the Dec. 1 deadline...well, somewhat inopportune. And since finals won't be over for several more weeks, I suppose now's as good a time as any to tell you guys something that's rather important. From December 15th through somewhere near mid-to-late February, I will be totally unavailable. The reason for this is that I will be headed off to Navy boot camp in the Great Lakes. Actually, my absence will begin the afternoon of December 14th, since I will have to stay the night at a hotel for an early rise, checkup, and then departure. I started this project October 15, hoping that in the two months that I would have to get things in place, we would have several of the songs done (which we do), a good portion more of them started (which we do), and basically every mixer having a great concept of their position (which I'm confident you all do). I started it hoping that when I left in two months, it would be moving forward with enough momentum to keep itself going...which I think it does. I still have close to two weeks left to make sure everything is straightened out, so if you have any questions, please let them be asked now. PM me or IM me or post them in here, but I want to clear up anything previous to my leaving, so you all have your own clear vision of what to do next. Sadly, by the time finals are over, I will be gone, and not have access to anything even remotely electronic. That means that as songs finally begin to get posted, I will be unable to comment on them, and unable to upload them to the server space. However, I have asked ZeaLitY to do both of these things for me, and he has agreed to do so, so at least everything will be kept in order. ZeaLitY is familiar with the script and what's going on, so he is very able to do the job. That said, I'm sorry I won't be able to hear all of your amazing work when it first comes out. I won't be able to see it improve, and see you all improve with it. On the bright side, when I get back, I'll have a good amount of listening to do and a good amount of praise to hand out, so at least there's a little bit of light at the end of my tunnel. So, anything that needs said, say it. I'll be listening (er, reading...whatever). ~.C.S.~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
