AFL's Post A Midi Thread-Or AFL's almost lone midi posting thread.

[A Forgotten Legend]

I was bored during lunch today, so I wrote this.  It kind of tells a story.  Its slow, then it becomes fast, then ends at the same tempo as it began.

Dark Tale.

[A Forgotten Legend]

Well, I got a new book from my chorus teacher to write my stuff in, so I added a flute and clarinet part to Dark Tale.  Have a listen.

[A Forgotten Legend]

Finally!  I changed the ballad.  Tell me how it sounds.(Remember my ff7 show.)

[A Forgotten Legend]

Well, I made a song in my notebook, and originally, it was in a different key signature, but it sounded strange to me, so I made it Gb, Ab, Bb, Db, and Eb, and now I like it.  It is going to be used for my game.  Its a little girl's theme, the girl's name is Leya, and she dies.  So this theme will play at her death as well.

wow afl the midi's are really nice.
how are u making midi's ?

and the ff7 ballad - is it only cuts of other FF midis  or did you play it yourself O: ?

Leya's Theme is nice,too  but i think it could be more sad.
Good Job O:

[A Forgotten Legend]

thanks.



Here is one I did, it is a mix between a theme i made in my notebook and Hero's Death (which i think sounds better like this)
Anyway, here is theme 2.  Btw, could you suggest what this could be used for?

^Well it sounds sad, but not sad/epic enough to appear during an important plot point. Maybe during a few side-quests which have a sad  story?

[A Forgotten Legend]

Really, i wasn't trying for the sad effect on this one.  I was working for maybe a title screen-ish feel?  I was happy because all the faster parts at the beginning and at the end, I made in my notebook without hearing the notes being played.  I just guessed what might sound good.

Hm... I guess a side quest sad thing may work.

[A Forgotten Legend]

I was messing around with my clarinet... and yeah. Then I added a french horn, flute, alto sax, and a trumpet to the mix... and I got this.

Theme 3.  Based on Fate of the Gods composed by Steven Rieneke.  I took what I remembered from my oboe part... and played the fingerings of those on the clarinet to get a different sound.  And this is what I have.

[game_maniac]

^ nice use of all those instruments, I think they all mixed together in great sync.

[A Forgotten Legend]

Theme 4 is my arrangement of Greensleeves.  I have done this song before, but it was different than this.

[A Forgotten Legend]

Theme 5 is a song that sounds similar to Jaws.  But it isn't.  Tell me your opinion of Themes 4 and 5.
