Re: ▓▒░ Hammer [NaNoRenO 2014 OELVN] [Suspense] ░▒▓ DONE!

Just read through it and wow! I liked it entirely, especially the cinematic approach to sound. Lots of meaty low end.

My only complaint, I wish it were longer. :)

Re: Would you play commercial VN without voices?

Could the preference of Japanese voices overs be down to the fact that English ones seem forced? By that I mean trying hard to imitate the Japanese tonal qualities? Whether it be a conscious thought or unconscious? I am not saying that the voice actors are bad, each persons voice suits a particular ...

Re: "Purity" in otome games

Normally I don't like to defend my words because I look and sound like a pleb doing it, however I will apologise in advance because that is what I am going to do. I am trying to be neutral here. 1. You are talking about making games "balanced" by shoving each individual game full of equal ...

Re: "Purity" in otome games

This thread started out quite nicely, short answers and too the point with the occasional explanation. Now don't get me wrong, a wall of text can be nice to read at times but I feel it went off into uncharted territory. Things happened. Men and woman did this and that, this also happened, therefore ...

Re: Survey on Visual Novel games

I'm in it for the story. Personally I like to see a story that displays a meaning, or a recurring theme/message. It's ok to read some action, fantasy, love. But I need a little more than that. Stories that have semi-realistic characters will hook me in. Characters who have morals and change over tim...

Re: How can I compose Soundtracks for my VN ?

I wish there was a real guide to composing, but sadly it's not as simple as that. This is my analogy of composing. You can be taught how to ride a bike, but doing tricks on it is something you have to practice for yourself. Someone can show you that but ultimately you must do it. You have played gui...

Re: How can I compose Soundtracks for my VN ?

FL Studio can help as it come with basic sample libraries and other vst plugins. Other digital audio workstations such as Logic Pro 9 or Logic X, Cubase, Ableton and others will allow you to compose from the get go. The only catch is you gotta pay for it, there are other discouraged ways. Cubase and...

Re: Soundcloud Networking?

Very late to this, but why not?

I've yet to establish myself here and work on a project. However certain circumstances prevent me from making commitments until near end of July.

Re: Visual Novel, Voiced Main Character?

Well if the story is from a first person perspective of the main character, voicing the narration sort of makes sense? You could add a little reverberation and cut off a small amount of the treble/high frequencies to imitate the protagonist's self thought. However from a third person perspective, na...

Re: Need a instrumental musician for a visual novel

I feel like I'm misunderstanding something here, so I apologise if I sound like an idiot. By asking for help with the instrumentals you mean you want us to produce the instrumental track for you? Or is it partly written but needs extra stems? Or mixing/mastering? And if you're asking for opinions, I...

Re: Original Theme Songs

Well, as for writing a vocal theme song for your project/story. Identify the recurring theme, narrow down your project into one or two words that sum it up. It could be about "breaking free", or "finding hope". It could even just be about love, hate, drama. Usually a story will h...

Composers of Renpy, Hans Zimmers wants you.

To simply state it, Hans Zimmer is running a competition to remix/rearrange one of his tracks.

The prize? A opportunity to be a full time staff composer at Bleeding Fingers studio in Los Angles.

So who's got the Zimmer in them?
