I don't know if I should feel sad or honoured. I've been plagiarized. This video contains this crappy translation of Crystal Snail into Mario Paint Composer. I'm not even particularly proud of that effort, and someone still came along and snagged it.

No, here's how it works. The long string of random characters is the song itself, you save it by creating a text file in your Prefs folder (iirc) and copying-pasting the text in. What he did was save the song, record it and upload it to YouTube, which is nothing by itself. However, he claims it for his own creation, which is NOT true. That is, I created the MPC file, he saved it and uploaded it, and he claims he was the creator. I left a message in his channel about it because for some reason I'm incapable of commenting on the video proper. Posted on: October 22, 2008, 11:33:01 AM
There, got the comment to work.

I have enough documentation to substantiate my claim by myself, though I appreciate the offer. Posted on: October 22, 2008, 08:07:06 PM
Yesterday I decided that it was time to stop just oohing and aahing at all the wonderful soundfonts and VSTs that came with FL Studio and actually use a few of them a little. Had to go online to obtain a trumpet soundfont for this because the program didn't happen to include one and I lack the equipment to get quality recordings of my own just-better-than-meagre playing. It's bland, repetitive and pretty derivative, but it IS a start to what I hope will become a substantial, successful composition hobby. Gonna have to copy the URL on this, because freewebs are assholeshttp://www.freewebs.com/colonelfatso/blaaahahav2.mp3EDIT: Hmm, they stream the mp3s now, didn't know about that EDIT2: Just to make sure noone misses the warning this time

SEVEN MONTHS LATER... I haven't been updating this thread, but I have been semi-demi-active musically. Most of what I've been doing has been pretty much just dicking around though and really not worthy of publishing. But a few days ago I gave the full version of the Chip-Tuned Rockman album a spin, and decided I could probably do a more appealing Ground Man cover than the mixer did. So for the first time ever I've finished something I started in FamiTracker (also the first time using a lot of the functionality of FT so it might not sound as good as it could but I'm still reasonably proud of it) and can present to you: Rockman & Forte - Ground Man Stage (NES-ized) http://colonelfatso.webs.com/groundman.mp3http://colonelfatso.webs.com/groundman.nsfMP3 rendering and NSF raw synth data are both available. I noticed a couple of sound artifacts in the MP3 rip so Winamp/Chipamp users should pick up the NSF for best results, but ultimately it doesn't really matter. Important to note is the fact that I used the Konami VRC6 expansion chip in the module so this is technically not an authentic American NES sound (American NES cannot use music expansion chips) ALSO: I've done some midi-stuffs for various sequencing/composition projects. These aren't nearly as cool so they won't get the kind of spiel I gave up there. Download these and play them in MSGS (default windows midi synth) if you can, although quicktime should be not-so-horrible with most of them as well. Front Mission: Gun Hazard - "Blue Sky ~ Blue Sky" - sequenced when I was bored one day Following three were sequenced for a great big project to fill up FMGH's index entry on VGMusic: Front Mission: Gun Hazard - "Violent Chase"Front Mission: Gun Hazard - "Sentinel"Front Mission: Gun Hazard - "Silencer"And the last is an original I composed for a contest (while it didn't score last place, it was fairly low in the ranks, so listener beware): The Ocean Depths (generic name for theme of the week in question)So yeah. Posted on: October 21, 2009, 11:25:28 PM
A NEW CONTENT APPROACHES! I'm in love with FamiTracker and especially that Konami VRC6 expansion chip right now, so I pounded out another cover today. It turned out fairly well, although there are some nagging balance issues. Mega Man X, Fortress Stage 1: NSFMP3Again would prefer downloading the NSF to save my bandwidth and because of recording artifacts (I've come to the conclusion that my laptop's sound card simply sucks and this is the best I'll be getting from it).

I didn't do much music making in the month of November, due to nanowrimo again, though I did decide to start work on a mock game soundtrack in Famitracker and have two tracks done (they're nothing like final, though, so I won't bother encoding MP3s or uploading the NSF yet) with god knows how many to go. But tonight I was struck by inspiration and decided to pay my respects to the soundtrack of a little vertical scrolling shooter called Battle Garegga. Battle Garegga - Title ScreenIt's short, but it was freaking hard to do, because there is no way to isolate any one output of the YM2151 sound chip through any means I know. Posted on: December 01, 2009, 02:50:40 AM
'FOR GREAT JUSTICE' FOR GREAT JUSTICE. Zero Wing isn't anything like the best shooter ever, but it's fine, and so is the soundtrack. A sample, recently sequenced to NSF format: Stage 5 - Submarine Tunnel MP3 (180 BPM) | NSF (180 BPM) | NSF (150 BPM)I rendered it in both 150 and 180 BPM because neither of them is correct (the actual tempo is closer to 165 BPM). Unfortunately, that's the closest I could get while retaining the integrity of the sixteenths (because practically every 16th would come between frames and thus have to be displaced). The MP3 is recorded from the 180BPM version because that was my preference and I wasn't about to record both versions. Progress on the mock soundtrack isn't anything like spectacular. I only wrote one more piece so far, a generic-sounding fanfare for STAGE COMPLETE. Posted on: February 02, 2010, 05:02:45 PM
New file host and two more game music covers. Raiden II Stage 1: MP3Yoshi's Island Final Boss: MP3I'm not quite satisfied with the Yoshi's Island one (mostly disappointed in the guitar, but I haven't been able to find any better guitar soundfonts for the job), but it's acceptable, I suppose.

Did some touch-up work on the Ocean Depths MIDI and gave it new life in the form of SoundFonts and a "proper" title. Submerged City with a Side of FriesPosted on: February 25, 2010, 11:46:53 PM
Herp derp de derp updates. A goal of mine over the summer is to learn how to take full advantage of the Yamaha XG MIDI softsynth I have on my computer. Here's the first fruit of that labour: Mega Man X - Fortress Stage 1: MP3 | MIDI (balanced for S-YXG50, will sound okay but not great on MSGS) Also, nintendo file: Zero Wing - Stage 2: MP3 | NSFAnd an original I composed for a sample-pack contest (you're given sounds and told to make music with them): HIS POWER IS MAXIMUMPlaced 27th out of 40, certainly higher than I expected (although of course not BROLY TIER).

Hmm it's been forever, I guess I should fix that Entered a composition contest for the month of August, the stipulation of which was that entries must be in 7 time of some kind, so I did a thing. Didn't work on it as much as I would have liked to, and the first 45 seconds or so are far from inspiring, but it picks up as it goes so bear with me HIGH-TECH EXPERIMENTAL FIGHTER: MIDI | MP3 (MSGS optimized, so probably grab the MIDI and you should be good) AND SOMETHING ELSE: I really enjoy the soundtrack to Addams Family: Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt so I sequenced one of the more awesome and recognizable stage themes Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt: Attic/Science Lab/Icebox: MIDI (again MSGS so most people will be good with this)
