Fire Emblem Sacred Stones Orchestral Medley

[turkooyze]

I've made an amateur orchestral arrangements of my favorite Sacred Stones songs! Help me out!

My arrangement:

Hey, welcome to the OCR WIP forums, turkooyze. Generally speaking, you're not gonna want to mark your song WIPs as "Mod Review" until you've gotten some other feedback on them first. Wait for some of the input to flow, and then use the mod review as the "final leg of the journey" before submitting to OCR. More details on proper Mod Review usage here.

That said, sounds like you're off to a good start. It's a bit cover-ish, in that there's not much done to rearrange the music, and the sounds aren't articulated as realistically as they need to be for a convincing orchestral arrangement, but it's definitely enjoyable to listen to.

Again, welcome, and I hope you'll take the time to learn the ropes around here and become a member of the community!

Thanks for the welcome, I tried looking for some sort of sticky topic that could tell me what to label my thread. In any case, thanks.

I'm just getting used to the articulations, and I wished I had a better sound library. Thanks nonetheless!

I agree with Flexstyle re the sound of the orchestra and conservative arrangement. Always nice to see Fire Emblem love. Hope you keep at this!

It must've been the production or the timid horns at the beginning, but I didn't get into this very much. It's cool that you put these three together, (SS was my first FE game) but I'm not "feeling it" so to speak.
