Need help with custom music

  • Pages:

Ok, I've looked in a lot of places, and when I try to find a way to make custom music, all of the tutorials I've seen are either in a different language, or with a program that can't be downloaded anywhere on the internet anymore. I followed http://www.smwcentral.net/?p=viewthread&t=48314 for help, and it didn't work. So can you please help me?

AddmusicK (I assume you already are using that), and then for the most part the GUI is fairly straight forward, especially with the readme.

If you mean porting, I can dig around in the tutorials forum.

I'm guessing porting is from a midi

Yeah.

Knowing exactly what regarding custom music you're looking for help with could help me help you.

Ok, so I'm trying to port a MIDI, and I know the requirements for it. Not too lengthy, and only one note per channel at a time. But I don't know how to set the MML file up for AddMusicK.

I personally recommend PetiteMM by loveemu rather than TinyMM for more accuracy in terms of conversion and it can handle triplets. There's a thread about PetiteMM that has more info. The more organized your MIDI is, the more organized your text file is when it comes out (one line is pretty much a whole note's length), thus making label and looping easier. If you're interested in this, I can teach you how to set up the text with this program instead.

I'm open for music requests, just DM me on discord and we can further discuss there.

Doesn't work for Mid files unfortunately.
(Like making music in Anvil Studio)

I chose Anvil Studio because it seems easier to use.

FL Studio is not free. It's also not easy to use.

I'll have some help with PetiteMM then, as I'd really love some help. Thanks for the offer too. I got it to create an MML file with CMD, but I don't know what to do now.

Use Kipernal's MML Editing Tool to fix the .mml file. Then just save it as .txt file, set up the instruments, put #am4, or what command line do you need, then test it with AMK.

EDIT: I don't think you need to fix the MML file when using PetiteMM.

Here's the problem: I don't know how to do that.

Which part of what he said don't you know how to do? What he said is correct, and shouldn't be too hard as long as you read that tutorial you linked.

This actually is indeed VERY useful for labeling and looping. Never once had problems like others have so idk, his choice on this.

Don't use #am4. We're trying to move passed those old formats, so avoid using #am4 and #amm, only use those if you're editing an old song that hasn't been converted yet but since you're making your own song, use #amk 1 or #amk 2 (I prefer 2). Most people put this at the top of their texts but I put them at the very bottom of the text file,

Not really, all you need to do is fix the tempo and label the channels. At the start of the text you'll get a t followed by numbers, example: t120t120t120t120. Erase all those and and take the number it has and multiply by .4 to get the right tempo. With the example I jx gave you'd erase all those t's and put t48. Now set up your global volume. This is the w command. If you're using #amk 1, start off by putting w250 and if the song is too loud you can lower it. If you're using #amk 2, use w180, bc 2 uses a different velocity table for global volume and is louder. Before I forget, at the start of the text, put #0, and then every ; you see afterwards, replace it with #X, x being the next channel number. After this, you're gonna have to set up the instruments you want for the song.

Seriously tho, read the tutorial, read AMK's readme. Study it. HEcks, the best we can help you is if you post the text of the song, so we can guide you step by step more effectively. If you're afraid of someone taking the song, PM me then, and I'll try helping you out.

PetiteMM doesn't seem want to work. I get this error: http://prntscr.com/6qxj8f

Come on, I have java! Even the latest version. I thought you said it's easier to use than TinyMM.

PetiteMM: Doesn't work
TinyMM: Does it perfectly fine.

I'm not really a computer guy about THIS kind of stuff, but I'd advice you to look at this thread on the matter.

It is very much more easier and organized than TinyMM. This is how I make my ports, idk about others. It was created by loveemu and this guy knows about SPC engines on the Nintendo better than anyone.

Alright, I've set up the instruments, and the MML file, but I keep getting this error. "Note's pitch was too high." The MML file is here.

You've thought, you just need to set the channels and instruments. Haha, no. There are many other stuff like looping, ADSR, many other stuff and the pitch. You can only have a pitch up to note A at octave 6 so you need to reduce the octave (which can be either the whole song or just the channel which has got a too high pitch) it at first. By the way, we (usually) set the instruments by "@xx" instead of "$DA $xx".

If you like forward me the midi and I'll do the basic setup for the port.
I'll let you loop the channels, I looked at your mml and thats not setup right.

See here: #0 midi <--channel t41 --<tempo v184 <-- volume of channel notes q5f <-- quanitizer for length of the instrument @9 <-- instrument y10 <-- panning.

#0 t41 v184 q5f @9 y10 if you can set that up right it'll work out better while porting.

Use Anvil, sonar or any other midi editor your comfortable with.
If all else fails ask master link, izuna, ruberjig or mercurypenny for help,




Eh, I dunno, flat-out doing it for him isn't really going to help him if he plans on doing this more in the future. IMO it'd be better for him if we just give him suggestions/solutions for the problem. And no offense but half the stuff in your post isn't even relevant to the problem he's having...

Erm, but this thread exists, and there's also the Music forum. It's not like you're the only one trying to help him here.

As for the problem, MFG pretty said it. If it's giving you that error, it should also be telling you the line number the error is on. Look at that line and see if any notes go above octave 6, and lower it so it works.

Surprise, if you read my post abit more closer you would notice I would do this once for him. :/

Yeah I saw every ones post, doesn't hurt to give the guy a hand now would it ?

Later. :)







Ok, I finally got AMK to insert the music into the rom, and I did it wrong, as in the level, the APU just jammed or something and no sound played when I started the level. http://puu.sh/hGCuu/63aa746c4e.txt
