Winkio's MIDI Studio

[Valcos]

What kind of things can you do while making the midi? So.. i have a better idea.

[winkio]

What do you mean?  Like effects?  Not too much there.  I got a reverb effect and an equalizer, and I can sometimes run stuff through the audio lab to tweak it a bit, but not much in terms of effects.

[Valcos]

Like, what kind of sounds do you got so you can like mix that shit up?

[winkio]

Most standard instruments and a few sound effects, along with a good amount of percussion.  It has enough variety to make a track with any sound you want, but you can't really vary sound within a track.

Limitless sound possibilities for all styles.  no joke.

[Tazero]

Wondering if you could make me a nice town song sorta like lively but not like mario sorta of in the middle
Does'nt matter which key wichever you think sounds better
And um instruments

Slap bass 2[....Bass]
Flute[bg]
Ocarina[lead]

[Reno-s--Joker]

Hmmm just curious... what do you use to make these pieces?
Nice work anyways, I <3 MIDI. XD

[winkio]

Anvil Studio.  It's a free program, perfectly basic, and I love it, mostly because it has a keyboard and staff for composition (i hate those piano role things)

[Reno-s--Joker]

Neat! I've heard good things about it too. ^-^
I agree about the piano role things. I don't get them. :|

XD

[winkio]

update with two "developing themes" just for the heck of it.  Recent stuff I've done just while messing around.

[winkio]

Just letting you know that this is being reopened, since it seems that the other music request stations are down.  People who had pending requests with someone else can get priority, although anybody can request.  And it's still MIDI files only, not MP3s.

[Starrodkirby86]

Restickied, ready for action.

Have fun composing music, wink. I wonder if I should use for any services in the future...So far there's nothing, as usual.

[winkio]

I thought up a new piece.  The beginning is under developing themes on the front page.  its Theme2B.  I'll probably put some more up soon 

[Tazero]

Necessary parameters for new piece:
   Major
   Energetic/mellow Starts slow and towards the end slow so it merges with the beggining =]

Optional parameters for new piece:
150 (Temp)
E (low)
Panflute for rhythm, Acoustic nylon for chords, Piano for breaks and...A slap bass with a 'This Love' sorta feel

[winkio]

   Energetic/mellow

XD.  I got what you mean, though, and I'll start working on it sunday, once I have time

[Xelias]

When you will be free, could you do this ?

Name : Alae Fati - Heavens (The Wings of Fate - Heavens)
Sort : Boss/Final Boss Music
Minor Mode
Description : It would begin with a calm, soothing chorus/piano introduction. It would follow with a piano ostinato (replacing percussions) and the main theme (aggressive but beautiful) played by an organ. A violin or a cello would eventually join in.

[Subsonic_Noise]

I might request one, too, but I have to ask a question first: Can you also do things like dark, ambient, industrial sounds? You wouldn't have to care about the details of the sound too much because I would "remix" it using VST instruments anyway.

[winkio]

@Xelias: Okay, you are on the list

@Sub: I have a few industrial-ish things, but remember, this is MIDI, so the quality isn't anywhere near as good as MP3 stuff.  I'll add you to the list as well, you can always cancel.

As I said, I'll make it a mp3 XD
So, here are the additional informations:
Key: Minor, a few disharmonics
Tempo: slow, around 80-90bpm will do
Instruments: Drum (No shit ^^), Strings (mainly low, some high pitched), Bass (low), some synths, Guitars (Low), Noises & Fx
Should have a dark, melancholic mood, but should still be a bit ambient. Just imagine that you walk trough an abandoned industrial area where plants have grown all over.
So it's a mix between nature and industrial, which should be shown in the song, which means you could also bring in some rather classic parts. Whatever, just be creative^^

panflute at 150 bpm is a no-no.  I've got a good idea for a melody that is more suited to 120 bpm anyways.  Pan flute sounds good at 120 bpm.  I've got a good start on pan flute and nylon.  Explain "Piano for breaks " and "A slap bass with a 'This Love' sorta feel" - both how to sound, and what part of the song to play (I don't know is an acceptable answer)

EDIT: here's a link to my idea so far, tell me what you want changed: http://winkio.atbhost.net/TazeroMelongetic.mid

I got the Tabs =D

And anvil can convert tabs to notes so chyea...
And piano breaks I mean like all other instruments stop and the piano starts to transition the song to a more fast paced thing =D
