I'm french, so I think we have the same time  
Well, you know, it's already great, I was ready to use those terrible midis not that far ago, then I bought tha mac CD, but there lacks a lot of musics, and they changed some others (and they didn't sound right), plus the legal issue. So this one is FAR better than what I could have expected   . The only annoying thing are those 30 missings seconds, but otherwise it's great   .

Ok... here's another example. This time i'm creating some "alien feeling" beat. It could be used as "combat music"...

I've used some chord progression typical of hardcore music...

It's ONLY AN EXAMPLE... the piece is not complete and the mix is not perfect...

YOU SHOULD ALSO LISTEN TO my piece "Time Travellers", on mp3.com

TIME TRAVELLERS is an awesome piece that could easily fit the "cruise" music background. It's an upbeat electronic piece fantastic to listen to as you fly without enemies around...

Yeah, they are cool, and I recomand them to other peolples   For my part I prefer to stick with Descent musics because I'm doing a campaign involving many Descent things, like sounds, 3d models and so on, that's why I want to have the descent musics converted  
Plus I'm not that fond of electronical music, but when they're well done like yours, I don't mind  

[Vanethian]

Ok... well...

I can make modern adaptations of Descent midis. In this case, you can't tell everyone MUSIC BY MANUEL MARINO, because it's not true.

So you should say:

ok  
So, for the one I sent you, could you add the last 30 missing seconds? you don't need to change anything else, I think it's great

Whoa...  

This guy is the real deal. Wow. Top quality.

Ah.. well.. i cut the last 30 seconds because they seemed to me useless...  

Call it "the musician cut"  

I can make a longer version with new melodies and arrangements, but keeping the "atmosphere" and the "feeling"...

[Nico]

mmh, ok   No, then, thanx, coz I also need very short musics  
Can I send you other midis instead?
Some are quite longer ( about 4/5 minutes ), but I don't think they are more complex than the one I already sent you.

[Vanethian]

Yes.. send me all the material you want... i'll try to work on them when i've got spare time (as i said, i've got two gigs on 19 and 25)...

..if the midis have got simple structures, probably i can orchestrate them in few days... let's see..

Ah... i'm making available a new mix of CYBER LOVE.. so, if you want, check it tomorrow (i don't think mp3.com will validate it today)...

Hehe, I don't think so, or else that means you're ready to work on the 33 midis left from the 2 first Descent  
But I'll send 1 or two more  
Thanx again  

[Vanethian]

Argh!   midi's got something wrong... the timing is wrong.. probably they used some old sequencer with a different timing standard... i'm trying to find the right time but it's difficult... also the overall arrangement is wrong...

I'm sure the piece has been composed for SB and FM synthesis... are you sure you don't have Descent modern midis? these ones you gave me are really strange...

..wrong timing, wrong rhythm, wrong chord progressions... probably they used midi format 0... but i work ONLY with midi format 1.

Strange because the first midi you gave me (the THEME) was right!

ARE YOU SURE YOU DON'T WANT NEW MUSIC?  


Listen to a sci fi combat theme i've done recently..

here's the URL:

[Vanethian]

Well... i'm trying to find an old sequencer so i hope to "read well" the midi you sent me...

..i'll keep you informed about matter progresses in the next days.

you'll be astonished... now i understand exactly what you want.. and you'll have it!  

Hey, that's my kinda guitar.  

I play an Ibanez GRX20 myself. I use a washburn amp and a Danelectro Overdrive Pedal along with Radio shack adapters and cords. I've yet to get a new pedal soon because it's been acting like a ghost and has been turning on overdrive when I don't need it, and sometimes goes off overdrive when I DO need it.   This only happens sometimes though.

I have a campaign "in the works" (been in the works for a very long time too). I'd probably check out a few of your tracks for use. I'll be sure to credit you in the credits.tbl for the game.  

Keep up the good musical work!

Well, I have a Warlock (BC Rich), but I suck at playing guitar...
Anyway, Yep, I'm sure I need only descent musics lol, but if I can get to finish this campaign one day (shouldn't be that hard in fact, I've done almost all the mods) I have a new project, even more easy to do (for the models part at least) that WILL require brand new musics (coz I'm sure I can't use the original ones at all).
About the midi pb, that strange... I listen to them in winamp, and I think I got "quite a good ear", and I never noticed anything wrong (well on one midi maybe, but I don't think it's one of those I sent you).
If you can't work on these ones, though, I can send you the whome music pack, and you could pick up the ones you can work on?

[Nico]

mmh.. weird... now it sounds awfull... even the first one I sent you?!? how is that possible?

[Vanethian]

Hello! send me the complete package!  

as i said... i'll try to fix what needs to be fixed!

i'll keep you informed about my successes (or failures) in this "descent midi thing"

[KillMeNow]

i liked "stairway to the stars" type of music you can just listen to for ages - good stuff

[DragonClaw]

  D00D!!!

Thats awesome man!!!

I was wondering if you could provide some dark... creepy kind of music for a little campaign I got here...
 www.hiddenterror.f2s.com

As well.... my email is [email protected]

I'd be very thankful if you could provide music, I don't mind advertising your site
