Time to hand out some trophies!!
I put up an article on basic sound synthesis yesterday. It had been requested by some folks. Touches on fundamental aspects of sound in general as well as more specific details relevant to classic retro waveforms and the kind of stuff sfxr does.
OK, forget that last arrangement. This ones much better.
(EDIT: OOPS! Wrong link!)
It could use many tweaks, but I’m much happier with the direction this is going. Remember, each change is roughly the soundtrack for a level.
Ideally, each level is a “page” from a story. The glitch part is where something happens. If I was really cool, I’d say something like the guitar represents the villain, but really at the moment it’s just several melodic layers I think sound neat.
Done for the day.
Spent the better half of the evening playing around in Ableton Live. I had the idea of writing a song that’d progress to the next part after each micro sized level. Here’s what I ended up with, arranged linearly.
Sheeat… I’m not sure I wanted quite such a dark tone. Now I gotta make a game suit that mood.
