That's excellent, my favorite on there. Maybe Megatek 3010
is 2nd favorite.
What software do you use for these? My main problem is I
need lots of non-percussion (tone-ish) sounds that are all
in the same pitch. All your tone sounds seem to be in the
same pitch relative to eachother. Modplug does it all weird
where you have 2 wav samples and one wav is supposedly set
to pitch g# while another is in pitch c or something, yet
they're still somehow overall 'set' the same relative to
eachother when you play them.. I don't know how it works..
that's one reason that, for the OP tracks, there were only 3
sound tones where *I* set the loop, so I could make sure
each of the 3 had exactly the same loop length so I can at
least be sure they're the same pitch relative to eachother
(maybe why they're 'harsh on the ears').
I know you can get 'soundfont's but I think you have to use
midi for that.

Thanks for the timed comments wavephace. Interesting to see
which part you liked worst and which one seemed spooky, etc.
That's good because I tried a few 'evil' scales and the one
mentioned used 'hungarian minor'. I don't actually compose
it in hungarian minor; I just used c major because that's
easier and more familiar to me. Then afterwards I:
altered every key in that c major melody so:
all e/a keys go down a half step
all f keys go up a half step (should = hungarian minor)

I use FL Studio because that's what I'm used to, but I think
you tried it out once and hated. I use built-in synths
mostly, so I don't have to do any pitch-correction.
I've never really tried it, but isn't there a way to use
MIDI or VST instruments in ModPlug? I had a quick look and
there seems to be something but I'm not sure how it works.
Maybe you can control external VSTis through ModPlug or
something, which isn't very practical and kind of lame.

Maybe what you could do is look into ways to extract sounds
from soundfonts, or use sounds from other mod files. Build a
neat library of instruments tuned in C or something.

i just went to the bathroom after my roommate was cleaning
it. she had left her speakers on in there, so i took a poop
with 60s psychedelic music blasting in my face.

i think you could say i just took a music dump.

w m w do you really not hear the melodies in your head when
you make the music (or you hear a different melody than what
is the final song)? that is a very wierd way to make music i
think, your like a space alien

i feel like that's they way most people who make music but
don't know theory do it. at least, that's how i do it too.

I think a human brain can mostly keep track of one melody at
a time. I have 2 main methods:
1) lay out some chords, like a basic 'bass beat' or whatever
as a backbone (I only use white piano keys 'every other
note' chords, like c/e/g/b/d would all be valid notes to
play during a c chord), then kind of imagine accompanying
melodies to that. Often what I imagine tends to use the
right keys for whatever chord already. Also you can kind of
freestyle basically putting any notes of any chord in any
pattern without really paying attention to how it will sound
when playing simultaneously until later.
2) 'hum' a melody (since the human brain is the most
complicated thing in the known universe and can fairly
easily spontaneously generate stuff/imagine at a high
level), then put in accompanying chord type stuff later. I
kind of trained myself to only think in white keys, so
anything I hum in my head is a white key and it tends to fit
some chord pattern or other.

With the first method I could probably compose in a
different scale like hungarian minor from the get go, but
not really for the 2nd method since I don't hum black keys.
Still it would be a pain because my keyboard is configured
for easy white key access (all in a row). So I can just make
a melody in c major or something and move individual keys to
fit another scale if desired.
