Branko Group: Members Posts: 36 Joined: Jan. 2005 Posted: Jan. 20 2005, 11:38 Hello! I started a new song using Fruity Loops, kind of to prove that FL can be used quite well for other music than dance/techno/house. Here it is: http://www.hollywood.cro.net/baba.mp3 It is not yet finished, but since I will have no time in the next few days to work on it, I decided to upload it anyway. Cheers! Back to top

It sounds really nice, but for my ears, it lacks a leading melody. as if its all very nice background for some solo instrument to take the focus and lean on those utopian scales. as for sound- theres a high freq that doesnt come accross nicely and even ruins the calm/sad atmosphere your chords create. good luck Back to top

Branko Group: Members Posts: 36 Joined: Jan. 2005 Posted: Feb. 02 2005, 11:33 Thanks for your comments. Maybe it's interesting to mention that I made all "instruments" except the harps from "scratch", using Fruity Loops' internal synthesizer (3xosc) - and harps are of course FL's "Plucked" plugin. It may sound over-sinthy, but that is what I was aiming for. The high frequency Yuval mentioned, I think, is a Rhodes piano playing it's own silent counterpart to the melody, but it doesn't do it any good, I agree. Anyway...thanks for listening! Back to top
