    Hi, great job getting the samples! The download link doesn't work though, and I want to use the samples for some compositions. Thanks!

    Stickers and more info on LBPC- if anyone wishes to make any comparisons.


    Wow! Stickers yeah! I wish there were more stickers though... but I guess it's enough to work with. Also, the price is a bit high considering there's no level included sad.png guess I'll have to get back into LBP again. Here is my previous attempt:

    Be nice, I just wanted to showcase the spin attack vehicle, and it was made when I was bad at making stuff, plus the thermometer maxed out so I couldn't theme it any more. I made a couple of other levels based on Sonic 2 for the Master System.

    Thanks for the good feedback. I took much from it=)

    That odd instrument is a Flugelhorn that's layered with the trumpet.

    I want to change the instrument for the bass, it's currently just an acoustic bass which isn't really that fitting, but I can't think of anything better to use at the moment. The bassline is very rapid, and rather hard to pull off on most bass instruments.


    No problem. I also think acoustic bass is the right instrument, I imagine it as a plucked double-bass that you'd have in an orchestra or jazz band. In the original music the voice for the bass stays pretty much the same throughout the game, like an electric slap bass guitar, but I think people are being creative and going for instruments that you would normally find together for each genre of music, in this case probably an orchestra. I don't know of any bass instruments for marching bands unless you count the tuba, but it's safe to say the instrument should be a string instrument.

    I was messing around with the Boss theme to try to get something akin to a military march. It needs a new baseline and a good bit of playing with, but I don't think it turned out horrible. So, tell me if you like the direction this is going:

    It's not too bad. I had to listen a few times to get into it. I think one of the instruments is not quite fitting with the others (sounds like a wierd violin/organ? psyduck.png ). Bass needs to be brought up or have another layer added to be more audible. Some adjustments to the drums volume might help too, some of it is concealed by the instruments. Another thing - the brass instruments are nice but might need shorter attack time (better than mine was though). Mine was criticised for this, and now I am finding it almost impossible to get the attack the way the original song hints it as. I'm thinking of trying staccato on top of legato trumpets, as well as messing with the timbre. This song is deceptively hard to pull off due to the nuances of brass instruments, which I am fast becoming aware of. I like the marching idea but I prefer the galloping percussion and bass of the original song. This is just my opinion...
