So yesterday I learned that Nobuo Uematsu composed on and directly sampled from a Roland SC88 Pro for Final Fantasy 7 and 8. Now I really want to get one or a software equivalent

I wish I could keep my few remaining brain cells focused long enough to do anything remotely cool

anyone use OpenMPT? I used Modplug Tracker way back in the day when I was more serious about music. It has VST plugin support so I guess I have a frontend for Munt and Dexed now I wish I'd stuck with making music longer. I am having a much harder time getting back into it than I'd like

I got a mandolin

I got an Ibanez and it's a very good instrument for the price! Sound is lovely and it's easy to tune. Only problem with a mandolin is the strings bite into your fingers really aggressively

I finished a rough draft of another song but I want to give it a few beauty passes before I put it up on youtube. this one's a doozy

I’m still making music. but I got soundcanvas va so that’s distracting me from finishing my DefleMask stuff

openmpt has a better interface anyway. maybe I’ll get that ym2612 vst that’s out there. I don’t think it has the sn76489 though

oh there’s a vst for that too

also: I guess you can’t fade out a note with midi commands? unless I were to run an instance of the vst for each instrument and then I can change the mix for the whole thing??

something I was wondering about is licensing/where to publish my tunes. I was thinking of releasing everything as some form of Creative Commons/copyleft, would this prevent me from selling albums on Bandcamp? is SoundCloud good for wip / impromptu posts? I assume I would want to have stuff really polished up if I’m publishing something to Bandcamp

# ¿ May 19, 2023 14:28 |

I’m also worried about those bots that steal music and perform takedowns for your own dang music.

# ¿ May 19, 2023 14:29 |

basically I don’t mind if someone uses my music for a game or a YouTube video, I would be flattered even, if I really want to make money I’d take commissions

I see what you mean. I wasn't aware dungeon synth was a thing, I was just going for a 90s video game vibe. I'm going to migrate towards more spacey scifi synth sounding stuff I think though.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19gWIgHysys Oaouaugh I've been working really hard on this one and was incredibly eager to release it. It's definitely my best work so far.

I’ll consider that for my upcoming album, Songs for Wood

https://youtu.be/s6IVlkXBYLs yo… did another one of these, I’m getting a better understanding of FM synthesis but I don’t know if that’s actually improved the sound lol

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjrWdC9pmLo Been a while, huh. I felt like "rescuing" this track from DefleMask, so I redid it in a real tracker program with good old SoundCanvas VA. I'm pretty happy with the result. I hope the drums sound alright, I'm still learning how to deal with those.

killhamster posted:these tracker songs are wild, i can absolutely not wrap my head around how to make something like that with something like that its easy, you move the cursor to where you want the note and you press the key for the note. repeat until you have enough notes. I don’t understand how people work with other DAWs quote:been stuck in kind of a creative rut and trying to make some new stuff, finally have a a few collections of decent loops and a kind of rough draft of something I like it! good rhythm and good chill vibes.

if it makes sense, I’m not classically trained and can’t read scroll notation, so I don’t think about sound visually really

I’m actually getting somewhere as of this am. it’s gonna be a lot of work but I think it’ll be good.

Pollyanna posted:humans like finding patterns in things, and an appealing structure can make a big difference. you're absolutely right, I have a tendency to introduce variation in each phrase to sort of show off? I've noticed professional music is more restrained

akadajet posted:nice! what are these visualizations made with? I found a neat little visualization program called astrofox. It only works on one track at a time, so I split the project by instrument and then edited them into one video. a little work but it's worth it imo I wish I was good enough at coding to make a jame
