Steben Posted October 23, 2006 Author Share Posted October 23, 2006 you can export as a wav in Finale 06. Ha, I'm dumb. I found the option under Save Special. I'll post a recording asap. EDIT: http://steben.noplaceforatoaster.com/music/kotr.mp3 There you go. Unfortunately, it has more than its share of pops and crackles... I'm not sure how to fix the problem, but you can tell what it's supposed to sound like now. EDIT EDIT: Okay, now it sounds better. Woo.

Kuro Hou Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Dude! I get chills when I hear this. This is fantastic, but now that it's completed I can't wait to hear a live performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steben Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 Auburn University's basketball pep band played this last night, along with an arrangement of the Metal Mario theme I've done as well. They're going to play a shortened version of the Katamari theme as well as the Mario theme at basketball games. I'll try to get a recording sometime in the future. Of course, if you want to hear the whole thing, you should get your marching band to perform it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trenthian Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 I havent read much of the thread at all. Speaking from a composition point, its very straightforward, which is something I like. In the middle there are some frills to it that seem a little over the top. Its an advanced arrangement. I heard midi and I thought for a second it was going to be terrible. not the case. I do not have access to a marching band, but this score has taken a lot of the work out of arranging this myself for T-ROOT. I should have something put together soonish.

Steben Posted December 13, 2006 Author Share Posted December 13, 2006 Glad you like it. I'm not sure what T-ROOT is, but keep me posted on anything you've put together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murmeli Walan Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 I'll try to get a recording sometime in the future. As soon as you can, please. It would be a direct OCR post, I guarantee it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liontamer Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 As soon as you can, please. It would be a direct OCR post, I guarantee it. Pretty old stuff. Hope this one isn't DOA, since it's been a long time anything's been updated. Well, being performed live would be a plus, but the arrangement does seem really conservative, as indicated in the first post. Depends how well the overall execution is personalized. Doing a cover is cool, and it'll be well received no matter what. But as far as OCR's standards on interpretation, I'm not feeling how most of the arrangement is so straightforward. More could be done to add a unique flavor to the fact that a marching band would be performing this. I'd suggest more structural leeway and creativity with the supporting instrumentation or a lot more expansion in the part-writing if you plan to keep the melody near 1-for-1. In any case, I'm just basing it off the MIDI sketch, so it remains to be seen what else is brought to the table by the sheer number of performers involved.
