Daiko Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Hello all! I'm fairly new to the community, and I've been enjoying my time here so far =) I've also recently just entered the VG music composition/remixing scene. One of the remixing projects I'm currently undertaking is "Rock on, Lagoon!". The entire OST will be remixed in the long haul. For now though, I've uploaded the opening sequence on my SoundCloud as a little teaser . Please take a gander and let me know what you think. For those that don't know much about Lagoon, more details are in the link. https://soundcloud.com/daniel-j-rocha/d-j-rocha-rock-on-lagoon Any feedback and constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time! Cheers! Daniel J Rocha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melodious Punk Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 man, the 13 year old me immediately wants to play every single guitar part in this. I think I'll buy some old Surge off of Ebay and have myself a nostalgic evening. My ears always struggle to grasp synth guitars, but you got a pretty good tone out of it. I suspect a bit more twiddling could make it even more expressive, without delving into the very testy world of synthguitar dynamics. Is that the FL stock guitar instrument? I can't remember the name... Never seen this game, it sounds like a shmup but you say it's a hack 'n slash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Yeah, sounds like FL Slayer, might even be FL Slayer 2 (but probably not). I can definitely tell though that it's fake. If you can get a clean tone and then apply your own amp tone to it, it might help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daiko Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 Thanks for the comments thus far =) I appreciate it. Lagoon is an action RPG released in 1991. You go around with a sword, dubbed 'the toothpick of doom' by many, slashing away at mobs. You also get some nifty spells to aid you. What really rocks this game in my opinion is the soundtrack, and the bosses. It is quite a challenge! I'm glad I hit a soft spot there Melodious, I did my best with the synth guitar. And yes, it is FL Slayer. I tweaked it out in FL studio to smooth out the rough edges and make it sound more guitar-like. Unfortunately, I am currently making due with what I've got, which is basically the stock instruments FL studio provides, and SGM-180. I'm making it my mission to get my hands on Komplete 8, but $559 is quite a steep hill for the time being. Would you have any other recommendations? Or is Komplete 8 something I should make a priority? Cheers! Daniel J Rocha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
