Title: MIDI to MPEG Layer 3 conversion
Post by: Darkfox on January 17, 2007, 01:32:46 AM

I don't make music myself but what I offer is to resample MIDIs into MP3s through a module tracker program. I have tried this out a few times and it tends to sound decent and good at best. I can't make promises about it being perfect but I have a lot of samples to go by that are pretty good quality.

Basically saying I translate MIDI to MP3.

Edit: Do realise I don't have infinite time on my hands as I have 6 courses to deal with in college this semester.

Hey Darkfox, I'm glad to see you again :D

I've just finished to make a new midi, and I'd like you to turn it into a midi. In fact this my own version of Tapion's theme in DBZ, I've been inspired by the melody, so I've decided to make my own Rock version of this song, and now I'd like to turn it into a midi :)

You mean MP3 XD. I'll see what I can do and I'll host it up on Megaupload or some other remote upload place.

Oh, what a mistake, I'm sorry xD What a shame :P Yes I meant I'd like you to turn it into mp3 please :D

Well I've looked it over and it shouldn't be a problem. Expect it soon unless I run out of samples that match, then I'll just find some that do XD.

Hehe, I'll be waiting for this :D

Almost done. Just have three more instruments to go. To me it sounds pretty good, I had to extend the timing on the cymbals since the samples I had went longer than those of the midi. Note that these are not generated sounds but actual samples from the real life instruments.

Oh, nice, I'm impatient, I'll tell you what I think about it !

 Tapion's Theme - Rock Version (MP3) (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=7UYFY4HI)

Tell me what you think. I went out and got some extra samples for some of them.

The sound is really better, but maybe it sounds a little without energy, the guitar notes don't  tone very long, but the result is good anyway, thank you :)

What do you think of this idea of mine to remake this melody as a Rock song?

I never heard the original to be honest.

Post by: moiledzep on January 17, 2007, 11:13:35 PM

Ah ^^

The original is just a melody played with an ocarina :P

Title: This sounds interesting

Moiledzep: OH! I remember it now! Shoot. I don't watch much DBZ but I did see that movie.

A Forgotten Legend: I'll see. One instrument eh?

Title: well
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on January 17, 2007, 11:39:20 PM

Yes, but one staff is treble clef and the other is bass clef.

I made it myself.  I like it.  I want to put it on my MP3 Player :)

I'm going to bother you again Darkfox, but I'd need another midi turned into mp3 after you've done Forgotten Legend's one :P Piano only too ^^

Title: I really like

 A Forgotten Legend's request (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SXKC2WT4)

Thoughts?

Title: ...
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on January 18, 2007, 08:13:37 PM

...I'm guessing you couldn't get the pedal marks in?  I sounds kinda weird...  Oh well.  (Is that even a piano in the Treble Clef?!)  Not to sound mean or anything, but thanks anyways.

Title:
Post by: Darkfox on January 18, 2007, 08:52:16 PM

Well it is a piano but one of more classical style since it was a set mood. And btw there was one instrument, one sample not 2, not 3, but 1 so if it was a piano in one it was that same piano in all. It is a more old fashion piano and it is open for change. It is a real piano, not a digital one.

Note: It is a pretty slow tune anyways and carried mood is somewhat a mystery so I went by the title. And the pedal marks are in there but it might be a little too low in volume.

I have more than one piano sample. I'll give an alternative version later.

Also: This is a learning experience for me so I may experiment until I get a right sounding conversion.

And what about my piano track Darkfox? :P

Title: Oh
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on January 18, 2007, 11:10:25 PM

Oh... sorry about that.  The pedal marks are really neseccery because of the measure rests.  That is what made me dislike it the most. Sorry!  The mood goes from dark to happy to dark.  You can ovisouly tell where.  Oh, well, it you attempt it again. PM me!  Thanx! :)
