geez...
I listened to some of your songs... And I keep wondering... Why don't you write your own music AND why don't you use another piano sample... This one just has some sort of distortion over it... not nice... Other then that... it sounds good... but thats just something about FL... it nearly always sounds so mechenical... just like this one... And the quality is just awefull dude!! cmon you can do better!!!

lol. this song was just because i was in a FFX mood. ill go back and clean it up one day. its played in FL unlike some of my music because i had trouble playing it. the other one of mine you reviewed was played on my noteworthy keyboard.
Nice
Nicely played! Although the piano sounds a bit weak if you know what I mean. Just add some Room in the editing... (or just a little more reverb) But submiting these classics is highly apressiated! Greets, Chris
thanks for the review Chris. :) all i do when i edit the piano is get rid of or clean up the nasty parts. i use only the built in reverb on my keyboard and if i add more it starts to sound a bit bouncy an i wanted a nice crisp sound for this song.
Heya!
This is great! If you did all of this on keyboard... how in gods name did you get the guitar to sound realistic?? What program are you using?? I myself use reason 4... but the best guitar i can get out of it sounds like a toy bought for 50 cents on a market... (dunno if thats even posible... but it sucks anyways) I'd really like to know how you did that! Are they loops?
But to get back to the song: too bad you sorta fucked up the ending.... As for the rest, just awesome! Nothing more, nothing less!!
Greets, Chris
Well, I use many different programs. I used to use FL, but its guitar sounds....SUCK.
I use Acid Pro's VSTi's thru MIDI. I also use Audacity and Soundforge 9. I compile each part individually thru the midi and then transpose it into an .shm file. Somehow after a few hours, I get this...Its kinda complex, and I probably go thru way to much trouble, and I'm sure there is an easier way. Then again, I like the trouble, it lets me know just how much work I put into my music!
Thanks for the comment, I know the end sucksg...meant to loop.
Peace!

mwoah...
Of course it sounded all really nice and all... but originality is nearly gone... I do like the piano "solo" near the ending. I also think the piano sound is too mechanical. And why the weird sort of wannabe splashes in between? They are totally not needed there... For a chord scheme that has been used for like a zilion times, you did do it nice! Thats it for now ;-) Greets, Chris
Thanks, I think the splashes wont really be noticed too much in the machinema because ppl will be focused on what they are watching, and it just helps break the monotony.
Thank you for reviewing
Pretty good
Nice, but I really missed a climax somewhere in the song. It's almost the same through out the entire song. It has a real good feel to it, really tense. And the ending is pretty sloppy. All the sounds are really nice though. Its a good piece, but it really misses something.
Greets, Chris
The climax had to be the next song.. :P Maybe it's better to let a single violin or picollo play one more musical happy line before the battle? :)
the ending sloppy... mm I'm going to think about that one. Because I wanted to make a strong emotional feeling by ending with a high violin note. Maybe it's the background violin lines that are to strong at the end?
Thx for the review
Nice
Really good, although I dont like the percussion thats moving from left to right all the time... It kind of sounds like there's a guy walking arround hitting a fryingpan with a spoon or something... It distracts you from the actual song... I still like it though ^^
Greets, Chris
This is really good
This is just awesome. The thing is... I miss some bass... its there in the beginning, but it leaves arround 0:34. Maybe put a bass line in or some heavy drums. The quality is really high. The guitar is awesome! You could easely make it a bit longer and make it into a shredding guitar solo. I think that would be awesome.. The guitar is just a little bit to short for my taste... all of the suddon its there... but as fast as it came its gone again.
Well thats it for my opinion.
I'm wondering though, what program do you use to make it?
Greets, Chris
Hi Chris,
I use the EWQL Symphonic Orchestra for the strings/brass, and some of the percussion. I use Storm Drum for the big hits and driving percussion, and lastly, Collossus takes care of the guitar sounds. Most of the sounds in Collossus really aren't that good, but with some reverb and mixing, some of the guitar sounds can sound quite professional.
Thank you for the feedback! When making revisions I'll take into account some of the things you've mentioned. A shred solo would be nice :)
Yeah!
It sounds just awesome! The Sounds quality is so high! Only the violin could use a better eq... little less high maybe. For a 3 hour song its really cool! Really tense! (too bad for the ending... but I guess thats because it isn't finished)
Great job!
Yeah I'll change the violin soon ... the ending, um ...I think an ending doesn't even exist :D
Work is still in progress, I'm working at it rightnow ;)
So thanks anyway for the review :)
hmmm...
Cool intro... Atleast it sounds like a big intro... It sounds muted. I really miss a melodie or a lead instrument (instead of the drums) It all sounds like it are supporting melodies for a melodie yet to come... Hope you can still put something in ;) It sounds good though... but just empty and a little boring.
Greets, Chris
thanks for the coment man. i actually try to let the Bass lead this song. it's boring? :( that's too bad man i'm sorry to hear that.
hmm
Its pretty cool... But I dont like the synthesiser... Make it into a rhodes or something... Synths arrent that funky... I love the flute though... The sax is oke...
And its way too long... It doesnt tell a story.. just a line where you played a huge solo over with different instruments. The ending is pretty cool... I'd say... make some more chordchanges... a buildup maybe into the main rhythem... And I guess you;ve got a cool song
