I'm missing a "Sounds like a melody" MOD The next one is not a real song (even the original mod wasn't complete) It seems, someone tried a special mix of a well known tune. So, what's the name ? I called it "sounds" ... guess why ooohh.... two questions in one post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Sounds" - because there's no reproduction of the vocal track maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cybernoid Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 Okay, here is my attempt at Big In Japan "a la emkay style". I found that if I turn off the note events in RMT, the import is "clear" or more in tune. biginJapan.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybernoid Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 I just had to convert the mod... Sorry for the stereo RMT, but the stereo effects were good. I wanted to keep them. ein1_stereo.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted to keep them. 1006235[/snapback] Why not The only problem here is to find a way to make the high notes sounding a bit more released/relaxed (at the end).. The higher the timing, the higher the critical issues(differences) between emulation and the real pokey. But it's worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cybernoid Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Okay, adjusted the attack of some of the instruments to better match the original mod, made a better snare drum, added back some of the missing low notes. Tried to tune the bass a little for the higher notes... they are a little more in tune, but the low notes will be a little more out of tune... I wish I could make a better cowbell. Believe me, you are going to want more cowbell. (obscure SNL reference) ein2_stereo.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(obscure SNL reference) 1006558[/snapback] The start is very good now, but when the "Sample" is played alone, the "release" of the sound seems to go off and on again.... perhaps a volume problem? What about playing some noise (gen. 8 ) at volume "1" on a free channel for compensating this? Btw: Where to listen to the original MOD? Perhaps I have an idea for the last part... Overall, the tune is very "eary" Edited January 25, 2006 by emkay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybernoid Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Here is my RMT file as well as the orginal mod. I think that the RMT file is actually more in tune in places than the original. And, I balanced the channels a little differently... there were just some tracks that seems to be background but overpowering the main theme. I indeed might have some issues with the envelope. I am curious to see what you have in mind... ein3_try.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll look around for something that fits the game, too. It may not be a highly technical conversion, but... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emkay Posted January 26, 2006 Author Share Posted January 26, 2006 (edited) As you might know, filter usage causes unwanted cancelling of the played sound. Using the highest note, played a short time, minimizes the timing offset between the soundgenerators. Now I did this, to have this cool "instrument attack sounding" that was needed for completion of the tune: As you can see, this time I used the highest note two times at the start of the instument. With the first command 1 , the generators are "resetted" , the 2nd command 1 sets a defined offset. That's all.

Cybernoid Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 Heaven, I am converting the following mod to 3 voices only for Venus. I still have some work to do on it, but the first part is 3 voices and there are many sections that can be easily converted by dropping some harmonizing of the bass... Let me know what you think... luna2.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
