Vidilian Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 (edited) Actually a mix of two songs from the game. Will extend it later.

DarkSim Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 The sounds are quite harsh, considering it's a fairly mellow arrangement. The piano right out of the gate is very jarring - definitely work on humanising and expressing that part a little more naturally, and dropping the volume in the mix. The synth in the background 00:14-00:45 sounds a bit like a bagpipe as well - not particularly pleasant to my ear. It gets much nicer from 00:47 with that trancey-style synth dripping in delay, and those nice bells, however the bagpipe soon comes back! I like the arrangement at the moment, but the sound design could be a lot better. Consider sculpting your synths more with EQ and filtering, maybe add some more voices to the synth, phasing and LFO panning/extra width to envelop the listener in the atmosphere.

Vidilian Posted August 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2020 Thanks for feedback. Update. Adjusted reverb and fader for piano so it's hopefully more realistic. I'm playing all parts by hand already with just slight adjustments to overly sloppy keys, so not sure how else to humanise. Adjusted parameters of the bagpipe sounding synth so it's less annoying and more atmospheric. Toned down bass synth a bit. Extended the song. Shifted the key in the new part to match the key of the original "Elysium in the Blue Sky". Will extend a bit more later. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vidilian Posted October 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 Update. Extended song a final time and tweaked the mix in general. Link should actually be accessible this time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
