Songbird Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Didn't see a great place to put this, so here is the latest Chipper song I'm working on for an upcoming game. Experimenting with note timings to give it a bit more of a "live" feel to the song. Enjoy! TiedInKnots_v07.mp3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The instruments, well, perhaps time to consult @miker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miker Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Nice one. I woundn't make much revolution here as I use completely different tuning. But what I would change it's the drums. Here are two pieces I've made some day for Odynexus with reference notes included in names (you can adjust volume for your needs): ody_drums.zip I'm going to make some (bigger or smaller) article about Chipper but I need a bit more free time than I have now (and be a bit less exhausted after work as well ?). But It will see the light of the day, someday. ? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be among the more complicated (in a good way) tunes I've heard on the Lynx. We all know you're a talented programmer and game designer. But I didn't know you were musically inclined! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miker Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 OK, as I haven't real intrument library (only some basic ones), I just created two kinds of hihat-type instruments. First one soinds more "metallic", and second one is closer to wite noise. Here you are: hat_instr.zip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just that I would imagine it's one thing to have the knowledge/skills to program music electronically, and another thing to have the knowledge/skills to compose catchy tunes.

No drums here, so you can observe if everything plays OK. The conversion is rough and rather crude in some moments, alright, but it doesn't really matter.

Songbird Posted May 11, 2021 Author Share Posted May 11, 2021 Sorry, not UV or DL... definitely for a more whimsical game. As for other Lynx games where I've done some or all the music, here's the list: Pretty sure my skills have improved over the years since SFX and Ponx! Although I'm very happy with some of my other early music like Champ Rally and Remnant. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
