Music Workshop kinda thing

[NightStalker]

Great to see you have a new design, but there are some grammar mistakes you might want to fix.

Could be a good idea to add definitions, too. I thought SFX are special effects, so what are they in music ?

Did some changes thanks for the suggestion, how is it now ?

 

[Ardenian]

Ah, I think it would be better to call them 'Sound Effects', as Arad MNK said, that's a bit more clear, I would say

I googled Sound effects too they are also called as SFX

Ah, then my bad ^^'

 

[Arad MNK]

Sorry for the delay, I was participating 2 contests at once, so The Snow mountains were delayed a bit.

I have made the base, and must improve it.
It might be ready in a week.


EDIT: more than a week.

 

[Ardenian]

Hm, may I request something, please ? I think it is quite easy.

1. Could you re-create the bell sound as exactly as possible, please ?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=o4CIiUnSwHg#t=3

There are more examples of the bell sound throughout the video, just wait a few seconds for a second example.

2. In the same video, could you re-create this kind of demon growl sound, please ?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=o4CIiUnSwHg#t=45

Note, the background theme should not be re-created, it can be found here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1K3EIHGeNQ&index=72&list=PLvNp0Boas720V1KbmLwGUxSfaJs4410fb.


Both sounds are heard if the book in the video closes.

I would be very grateful if you could re-produce them

 

[NightStalker]

Do you mean the church bell like bells? I can do it, but I may not be able to create the dragon demon's growling since I'm using musical instruments, but i will see what I can maybe it'll be so easy, just wait a few days

Just the bell and the growling right? Any other requests?

 

[Ardenian]

Yes, exactly
Oh, great to hear

Hm, there was something else... Ah yes, there is another bell I would like to use, if you don't mind:

Hm, I have tons of this kind of request, of any difficulty.
So if you need work

 

[NightStalker]

I will try to make a few different bell sounds then, including the ones you want, so you can choose any of them when u need it, or if none of them is what you want you can always request

I need work yeah these things keep me away from the games which is nice

 

[Ardenian]

Oh, that's a great idea! I am sure they are there, too

Hahaha, be careful what you are saying ;D I might flood this workshop then to prevent you playing games

 

[NightStalker]

Ahahahah if the semester wasn't starting I could do some more I will be busy in a few weeks bcz of lessons :'(

 

[Ardenian]

Ahahahah if the semester wasn't starting I could do some more I will be busy in a few weeks bcz of lessons :'(

Aw Good luck with your studies!

I don't need them fast, just after some time, would be nice

 

[NightStalker]

Thank you again

Just write it down whenever you need, you keep the workshop always busy which is a good thing

 

[Wasabee]

I like this workshop keep up the good work.

 

[NightStalker]

I like this workshop keep up the good work.

Thanks, mate! I will do my best to keep continuing this workshop!

 

[NightStalker]

After some time here's the WIP, it was hard for me to decide how to start, I still have some thoughts but let me hear what you think first



I thought of, starting calm then building the tension. The electronic sound at the end will evolve into a more musical way, then the rhythm will start, going with a more heavy and flowing effect.

The NOISE!!! Don't listen to it on headphones.

 

[NightStalker]

Sorry for that, I just made the base of it didnt clear anything out nice heads up

 

[NightStalker]

Hey I've found a bell sound, similar to what you're looking for. If you don't like this I'll have to find a plugin.

I downloaded this from http://www.freesound.org/home/, this is not my creation, tell me if you don't like it.

 

[Ardenian]

Uh, I would like to hear it, but even with sounds full on and looping it there is nothing to hear :/

 

[Rex.]

How's the workshop going?

If you all don't mind, I would like to use some of the musics that you all have created!

 

[NightStalker]

It's going pretty slow Of course you can use anything, just dont forget to give credit to the creator.

Here's your sample btw

 

[deepstrasz]

Divergent ConflictsVer2.mp3 sounds interesting. The end is just seconds of silence.

 

[NightStalker]

It has no end actually, its just a sample im putting the work ive got so far. Idk why it happens but when i export it as mp3 it leaves a blank area after the song stops playing

and thanks for the compliment

 

[NightStalker]

Thanks

 

[WhiteFang]

I really need to browse more,I keep discovering neat stuff I missed,like this!

 

[NightStalker]

Ahaha I've misread your comment and understood that you missed some of the things here in this thread There are a lot of artists and musicians on the Hive which is nice, we need people that are interested in these areas to keep them alive

And I'm glad you liked it!

Hey Rex, I'm uploading a new sample bcz I'm currently lost and I dont think the song is going well, I want to know your opinion before I go further in it.

After the chorus ends, the conflict part starts but I made it very short, if u want it to be longer just tell me.

After that Im gonna put a piano transition for the dramatic return of our heroes.

 

[deepstrasz]

Hey Rex, I'm uploading a new sample bcz I'm currently lost and I dont think the song is going well, I want to know your opinion before I go further in it.

Sometimes it's better finish what you start and change as little as you can. If not make more versions of the same song. That's even better!
In this version (3) the strings and the orchestral percussion are too loud.

 

[NightStalker]

maybe itll come out better as youve said, ive got too many ideas but it comes out as nothing on the workstation :/

Ive applied some equalizer effects on strings, to put them in front lines and make other instruments back them up by standing in the more behind lines, but yeah it seems the volume difference is too much. Thanks for feedbacking me tho, theres not much people on the music section

 

[deepstrasz]

theres not much people on the music section

There was a time when there were. At least ten people. That was 2009-2011, mostly.

 

[NightStalker]

It is so less compared to the modding part but that would be awesome to have that number now. I dont how many of us are active but right now we are 4-5people at most including us both

 

[Rex.]

Can I make a request?

 

[NightStalker]

I am still working on your current request whats it that you want next tho?

 

[Rex.]

A 45 seconds rock music about an insane killer!

 

[NightStalker]

Why not I may try but at the moment my sound driver is shit. But I can still record something. What kind of a music do you want? Itll be a distraction for me too

 

[Rex.]

A distraction of what? :?

 

[NightStalker]

The other request a distraction will be nice. Tell me some details so I can start working on it

 

[Rex.]

Ok, the music is about a fearless killer who always eliminate anyone in his path with his M4A1! Make sure it is rock, not horror or psycho (Unlike Raging Dogs style!).

A minute should be enough.

 

[NightStalker]

Can i slide into metal in this one rock may fall weak in this theme

 

[Rex.]

Why not? Plus adding a few drum beats may boost the effect too.

 

[NightStalker]

Okay will start ASAP!!

UPDATE: Here it is! Hope you like it. Wanted give it a more southern feel and a little western style. As I've said my sound driver is shitty and the guitar is not very good quality.


Southern Trendkill

 

[deepstrasz]

What did you use to make it?

 

[NightStalker]

Plugged my guitar amp directly to the mic input. Sounds sooooo baaad tho.
I wrote the drums and bass line in Fl studio exported to MP3 then I played it on Audacity and I hit record then played the guitar. Removed the white noise from audacity then I exported the guitar to FL again. And put so much filters and compressions in there resulting in this. Took me almost 2 hours

 

[deepstrasz]

No, NightStal'. It sounds really good. Yeah, mastering is a pain, I know. It takes a lot of time after it already takes a lot of time to create a song.

 

[NightStalker]

Thanks for the kind words mate! Yeah it takes time but listening to what you've come up with countless times is worth that

Now that I know I can use my f*cked up sound driver for metal music I may start posting more metal stuff from now

 

[deepstrasz]

True, that. I only did two songs recording my classic guitar using an old PC microphone. Not even going to talk about the sound driver/board. Anyway, the thing is, the way around it is to add sufficient noise reduction and other instruments to take the hearer's ears off the messy part of the recording. I tried using digital distorsion (in the program I'm making music with) and the classic turned to rock.

Oh, and yeah, you are a stalker. And it's night here too.

 

[NightStalker]

ahahaha that's what I just did with this one I reduced the noise but if it wasn't for the drums the guitar would not sound as good as this. I am still going to buy a external sound driver which I'm saying for months now But they're a bit expensive that's the problem.

Why did I choose this name in the beginning D: I don't stalk people I just created a random account to ask something in the first place but I started to like this place now here I am, standing with a nickname that doesn't represent me

You can change your account name only once. If you want open a thread in the Contact Staff department or send a message to an admin.

 

[Rex.]

Haha, that's what i am talking about! Baby!

I didn't know that! Thanks I will do it in a few weeks.

Thanks mate! Just hit me up when you need more
