Yeah. Yesterday night I whipped up a dungeon-like music and I decided to post it with another music I made earlier. You can use them freely in your game, as long as you put my name in the credits.

Those musics are made with ModPlug Tracker and they're IT format. Enjoy!

I'll listen to them when I get home. I never could get the hang of modules... too technical for me.

EDIT: These are very nice. The samples are good, too.

Yeah?

I like the first one better, but that's because I made it later.
The samples are actually mainly taken from the GM.DLS library! (Or, to say it easily, MIDI-like samples.)

I didn't understand Module at first, neither, but if you know what everything means it's easy.

I remember a song like that. It improved it from being a load of crap to a load of crap with a 'very happy' woman. (I know how much TDC likes suggestive content after all)

Hello again, topic.

The first one's pretty good - the melody is a little off with the chords at some places where the chord changes. You also have rather a unique approach to beats in the bar, having first 9, then 7!

The second is nicely atmospheric.

I don't want to sound like a n00b, but they don't seem to work on my computer. I've never even heard of IT format, and Windows Media Player doesn't recognize it either. Do you have any WAV/MP3 versions of it?

The best these musics play in is ModPlug Tracker. You see, it are module files, like .MOD, .XM and .S3M (btw, I can create in those 3 formats too).

www.modplug.com for the player AND the free tracker.

Click on 'What would you like to do' list and select 'download ModPlug software'.

Yeah I know something about music, but I have it in me, too. It's a bit hard to create 9/4 and 7/4 in modules, too.

How does this modplug tracker work? It looks nothing like a music making tool to me. Can you bring up a score of some sort?

There isn't a way to display a musical score in Modplug - instead, notes and note-offs are placed on to tracks, which are scrolled through on playback to produce the music. It's nowhere near as easy to read as normal score, but you get used to it. The approach does allow more a more clear layout when you're using effects on a note, as they're displayed alongside it on the track.

They are like MIDI, but better, because you can define your own samples. Result = Reasonably good music + low filesize.

btw, you can also open MIDIs in MPTrack, it will be opened with a standard sample library

Dave: here's a little tut.
- First you go to the samples tab and you import some samples (you can make a new sample by selecting new, now you can import another sample).
- Then you click the Patterns tab. Now you get an entire field! Select an instrument and insert into the field. You'll have to figure out how it works yourself.
- Okay, an explanation of the number rows you created:
C5-01-v50-F01
1st number: The tone height. This is just a C, the 5 is an octave.
01: The sample number. It plays the note C of sample number 1.
v50: An effect for only this channel. (this one changes its volume).
F01: An effect that affects the entire song, all channels!

Okay, that's it. There's probably a help file somewhere with it, at least now you know how it works.

The fourth row can be used for channel-specific effects as well, such as vibrato/portamentos.

I don't know how to explain it other than saying that you just write them out as quintuplets... making use of the Note Delay if necessary.

Uh... I'm actually not that far in music yet. I know it's like playing stuff worth 5 beats in a 4 beat pattern, but it seems hard to do (timing problems).

Note delay, ok. I'll look inte that.

DaVince - Yes it´s quite hard to play. However, I´ve learned it now. Now I´m into learning how to play septols or whatever it is called. 7 beats in a 4 beat pattern. That is freakin' hard to me

I don't want to sound ignorant, but I can't think of any time when I'd actually want a septuplet. Unless you're Dream Theater of course.

septuplets are quite common if you compare with septuplets combined with eleven(?)tuplets though. by the way, I was a dream theater fan. But now I´m more into soul. And actually you may find some septuples even in such music.
