Audity Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 (I haven't made any progress on my Xenosaga III WIP. If anyone reading this likes the WIPs in this post and doesn't know about my XSIII WIP, PM me and I can link it.) Here's this WIP: WIP1 http://escaprism.org/audity/FF12path.mp3 WIP2 http://escaprism.org/audity/FF12path2.mp3 WIP3 http://escaprism.org/audity/Audity_FinalFantasy12_crystalpath-remix_WIP3.mp3 This is halfway inspired by Tepid's recent FF10 mix, Via. I heard this song in FF12 in the Japanese version when watching some video of a certain boss (in Giruvegan/Crystal Grande or whatever it's called), thought it was interesting then, and remembered it right away when playing the US version. I think the original is pretty similar to the original song covered by Tepid in FF10, in terms of mysteriousness, so I figured I would think a little similarly. Constantly changing notes is how my brain works anyway. The piano is all I ever remember, and the background rhythm, so that's all I really remix, not so much the progression of the strings and such found during the other parts of the song. But since I'm running out of ideas, I might do something with that. I work in Reason, know nothing about mastering, and just pick samples that sound good. Though actually this time I set up an Equalizer, Mastering Suite, Reverb, and Compression device right off the bat, and basically have each one controlled for a couple samples right now. I should look up some tutorials sometime... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostinthamusic Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Sounds very interesting. I bought FF12, but it's sitting in my room and I've yet to play it. I'd have to hear the original somehow to comment on it really. The samples aren't too bad, for Reason. Maybe I could find the original song and comment on this further. Good luck to you.

Lostinthamusic Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Oh, great. Thanks. Well, from what you have so far I'd say it sounds pretty good, especially considering you are using Reason. Pretty good sounding refills. Your version seems to have a very deep-eerie feeling to it. Kinda draws me into it more than the original. Keep it up. I like what you have so far. :] Good luck.

Audity Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 http://escaprism.org/audity/Audity_FinalFantasy12_crystalpath-remix_WIP3.mp3 Added a bunch of stuff. I need to think of more concepts for this song so the ending's not out of place or too soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monobrow Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 a: I loved this song in the game b: yeah I think you should keep going crazy for a while, really emphasize the piano and do some great "playing" around...then do a soft beautiful quiet part, and then bring back insane drums and crazy piano for a finale. Sound good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Time Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 I really liked the flute in this (that is a flute in the background, right?) It would be nice if this came to the fore a little bit. Anyways, FFXII needs some remixin' love, and this is a good first shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
