Frayo Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 http://batman.jypoly.fi/%7Ec2236/mock.wmv Like those: Any clues how to produce them? Im talking about the music in the games. The sounds are so awsome, yet I know nothing of how they are produced. What keyboards back then could make those sounds? What keyboards today can make those sounds? There is a synth solo of a "Video game lead" in Number One by Chaz Jankel (from the 1985 movie Real Genious) "When all you have is a hammer, everything else starts to look like a nail" AIM: RaiyoKun EMAIL: frayo@earthlink.net www.livejournal.com/users/frayo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeronyne Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 get a SidStation (recently discontinued) and any 4-op FM, and you will have a little more power than what they used back then. "For instance" is not proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 If you do some searching on Google, you will find all kinds of interesting results.

Pim Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 Use any analogue synthesizer and record it in a 10kHz, 8 bit sampling mode. You can also use modern equipment. Alesis has some devices for reducing recording quality into a vintage sound: the Bitrman & Fidelity. My Music I always wondered what happened after the fade out?

dementia13 Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 If you're using Reason, there's a free Refill of Commodore64 sounds. (IIRC, that's what the SidStation is). I'm pretty sure it's posted on Propellerheads' web site. There are a lot of samples out there of sounds from video games, often they're in special FX collections, so a Google search will get you there, thouch you'll have to do some sifting.
