The rightmost link in my siggy should have all the software you'll need to get started. :-)

I smacked Maestro when I found out he had put that there >:(

I suppose the .flp I uploaded was before I removed it, because the .flp I have and have been fiddling with lacks it :D

I put a compressor on the master bus... maybe_3rig.flp
o_O

Exit, stage left

Ehh, I don't really like what you did to it. You distorted the main theme.

I didn't know what the main theme was. See, I was using FL 6, so nothing showed up in the playlist. I had no clue what it originally sounded like, but I listened to the patterns and came up with an arrangement.

You don't have to use my version. I just wanted to give this thread a kick...can't wait to hear what you guys come up with! :-)

Since nobody seemed to be continuing this, I've remixed the FL Collab part. It's fairly short, so you'd better do something about it.

The current_fl.mp3 is updated accordingly.

Try this Vsti - http://www.krakli.co.uk/secure/gargoyle.zip - it might have what you're looking for.
While you're there, check out all the stuff on http://www.krakli.co.uk/freesynths.asp . They have good synths!

Channels > Add one > Audio clip

If you're gonna make money off of your project, it's only fair that the composer gets some too. There's usually a flat fee, plus a percentage of your sales.

By the way, what CC license does Newgrounds use? Attribution, right? Or is it A-NC?

Get FL Studio XXL and Nexus. That's pretty much all you need for music. :-D

Hm, I've never figured out how to use Soundfonts. Pretty much all I use is Sytrus, Nexus, FreeAlpha, Attack and FPC. Where could I get Soundfonts?
But yes, FL is very powerful for sampling/synthesizing. Recording audio isn't its strong point, I use Audacity for all that.

Sorry... TheComet said he likes to use unknown talent.
Besides, who ever looks at the advertisement thread?

Search www.ytmnd.com for "gay fuel". You'll find tons of inspiration.

Rule of thumb: it's always free if you run fast enough.

And about interpolation - I generally export everything at the highest settings anyway. I don't notice any major quality difference, but you never know when someone will want to put it on TV...

People download my songs...but they never review them. And that makes me sad.

The piano is definitely one of my favourite instruments. But it's not perfect.

Piano + cello = orgasmic

I'm unknown here, and people say I'm talented.

I'm secretly whoring myself...

I've been getting ready for a live performance of my own, with a singer/guitarist friend of mine. My main program is FL Studio, but it's too graphic-intensive for live performances on my crappy laptop...so I'm using a free sequencer called Reaper (http://reaper.fm).

I have a Korg KONTROL49 keyboard that I'll be using. I'm also running vocals and a guitar through my computer with the EMU 0404 USB interface. Granulation ahoy!

I have something almost like that - an EMU 0404 USB. The difference is that the EMU has S/PDIF in and out, ground lift switches, both 1/4" and 1/8" headphone jacks, and MIDI ports. And it costs $50 more.

Reaper - FREE

Technically, it's uncrippled and unexpiring shareware. But even so!

This is an audio recorder, sequencer, VST host...all the things FL Studio , Cubase, and Reason do. But for free.
It won "Best Free Sequencer" in Computer Music magazine, and it deserved it. It has the most features out of any other free sequencer I've seen.

If you need help with it, I've written a tutorial to get you started right here.

What about that fancy schmancy stand-alone NG audio player they developed a while back? Maybe they're planning on implementing that in the new version.

me. zzzzzzzz

Which is why I said LEGALLY acquire. This tutorial is for those of you with morals. :-)

Not that pirates are moral-less...

http://blog.splicemusic.com/2007/05/22/how-to -make-loops-for-free/

Since 90% of us Newgrounders have no funds for legally acquiring music production software, I've written this handy tutorial showing how you can make your own music and loops for the low, low price of zero by using nothing but free programs.

Now everyone can have original music for their animations without breaking several copyright laws in the process! :-D

Everyone has a dad. Doesn't matter if he was there for you or not, he exists. Or existed.

Anyway, with Father's Day coming up, I thought it'd be nice to get a little compilation going with NG songs for and about fathers. Genre isn't an issue...it it reminds you of your dad (or someone else's dad), go for it. Sad songs, happy songs, angry songs, whatever floats your boat.

I'll start, I guess. Here's a remix I made of a song called Nine Years Old a little while back. I found the original song here, he's awesome. :-)

I should gain some weight, then...you never know when deafness will strike.

Epic Orchestra - An epic orchestra. My most popular song from here to YouTube, for some reason. There's a sequel also, check out the high-quality version on my site.

Deep Thought - A neat little loop I made entirely with free software. It kicks your bum.

Mindless Adventure - A loop. Good driving, playing, or bouncing-through-the-forest-with-your-buddies music.

Standardized - A looping song, it'd be great for a shooter game. Inspired in part by "Lar's Adventure" and a song from SyTeQ.

Nebula - You're floating through space, with not a care in the universe...an ambient track.

I have a song on my page called "Introduction". It might not be suitable for you, but it WAS for an intro, dammit!

Check it out. :-)

I'm shamelessly capitalizing (whoring) off my underdoggedness.
I'm ALSO shamelessly promoting www.splicemusic.com .

Clicky?

Well, I might as well start here.

I made a remix of a song called "Nine Years Old" by Kevin Maney, who's the technology blogger for USA Today. Clicky siggy!
