SSB

I just knew I heard all sorts of hints of Lonely Rolling Star in this mix, and lo and behold, when I follow the album link I see a remix of that very song! I love the Katamari influences here.

definitely in it to win it and for uematsu and final fantasy and distant worlds etc etc

this is a bump and a promise for an update soon.

http://ocrwip.fireslash.net/?fid=470 updated. fleshing out the tail end of the previous wip

I'm aware of the issue of separation.. right now I'm not too worried about it since it's just stating the main theme. I can address the repetition, but I definitely at least intend on blending it all together into something more unified and connected. Whether or not I am successful remains to be seen

http://ocrwip.fireslash.net/?fid=470 update 10/1 The ocean theme ( ) as well as hints of outset! This is still a very very very very early wip and not even close to being like half way written, but I like it so far so I want to share and get feedback on what's here. I'm aiming for ocr quality this time around, so be harsh.

How can I create a pitch bend controller to use with this plugin? There's no knob for it anywhere as far as I can see.

I love this source. I may have to take a shot at arranging it myself. The main critique I have to offer is adding more to fatten out the sound. The texture feels so thin across the whole thing, and the same general harmonic structure is repeated over and over which can make it fatiguing to listen to. The key change around 3:50 helps that a bit, but you definitely needs more mids represented in the overall soundscape, and maybe a stronger bass line.

The horns sound terrible. I know it's hard to sample that but with jazz it just has to be the real thing. As a horn player and jazz fan, I find this painful to listen to.

The harmonies are fantastic. I really like this.

The attacks on some of the notes just sound weird. And the the vibrato seems to be a bit much.

Would you mind sharing what brass samples you're using for those little kicks? I love that kind of lo-fi sound.

zac spruthasa? I'm really hoping that's "Also Sprach Zarathustra"

I definitely heard sabre dance

That crescendo at 2:20 just NEEDS more energy. You keep the texture exactly the same and it needs to be BIG
