merc's personal dumping ground (spc thread)

Lel dat @3

I think the @6s should have a stronger staccato instead of sustaining so much. Otherwise, it sounds pretty good, I like the way you used @29 :P (at least the sample).

good point, updated the spc
is that MY 2+3.brr sample???

It sounds very good :P I don't know the original though, so I might recommend the strings having a slight vibrato or tremolo (or both?), and toggle echo OFF on the bass channel (at least one of them rofl), since I think that'll help the mood a little. Good work either way.

You know I actually got a good laugh reading that then playing back the spc. Should be a spoiler..... I'll make it one anyway #tb{:p}
The drum line and part starting at 55s are probably the biggest offenders of your statement.
Looping seemed a bit weird but doesn't bother me. It's good you compose your own music but listening to that it's hard for me to envision you making any improvements [on the score.] Add panning if you want but that song more or less complete.
With love,
Your dearest Hinawa


it's a little thinner than the original but i blame that partly on smw samples and partly on the fact that it's 1:20 am

not super proud of the string chords either, since i couldn't pick out any other notes, but hey whatever works!!

hi i'll probably never finish this

chrono trigger's string samples are anus
WOW, MercuryPenny.
Your Mother 3 sampled WIP port is wonderful.
It's like the original music.

I just wonder why did you consider the strings like anus.

My sentiments exactly. As far as SNES strings go I'd say they're about average.
i suppose a better way to put it is that they are just absolutely inferior compared to the ones used in mother 3. they're really muffled and gross, especially compared to how well chrono trigger's music box samples

i got further and am much more certain i won't finish it now. string chords have always been a nightmare for me to manually transpose without access to disabling channels, so having to do about 20 seconds worth of nothing but several layers of string chords sounds like absolute torture i'm not willing to put myself through. at least what i got sounds decent
sounds very good, if it had the original samples it would be perfect

I could rip the original strings and electric piano samples for you if you are willing to finish this
i'll get around to finishing that mother 3 port eventually once i eventually get the motivation to start transcribing the strings from the midi pinci gave me (thanks dude btw)

in the meantime i made another composition. it's another one of those cases where the loop is incredibly unsatisfying but i like how it came out otherwise
oh it's only been 5 months since i did anything

here's an ffiv port. i think it turned out decent, still not 100% sure i got the weird atmospheric pitch bend thing right but besides that im pretty proud of it
it's ya boi

last few measures of the track have been a pain for about an hour now but i think i got it. will probs upload it tomorrow
