Re: My Knights' Kingdom Main Theme (OST), Feedback?
Thanks guys, I really appreciate all the feedback! I've got a list made up with things I should fix and when I've actually started filming something then I'll be able to get more in depth with the theme. Until then, I'll post any music specific updates here, and perhaps another theme or two.
I am in the midst of getting a new computer, editing software, and probably a real keyboard (with weighted keys and pedals...something this one doesn't have either of). That'll change things a lot probably, so far as capabilities go so I think that'll be good.
Now specific responses...
@BoatsAreRockable and Wildo66
Thanks, it does need speeding up for sure. The more I listen to it the more I seem to like the first one though, actually.
A few variations of the main theme could be used to great effect, I think. I just rewatched Iron Man 3 (yes, I actually liked it) and I noticed that essentially the entire soundtrack is the same theme but modified. Played slower in a major key and as arpeggio's, minor key and fast with more epic instruments, etc.
I think I could do something similar here if I work hard on it. Perhaps a slight variation for each Knight, based off his or her personality?
@Arginnon You're quite right, I definitely need the main theme to be louder. Just by modifying that project file it sounds better, still needs other things tweaking but yes, main theme needs to be louder. Thanks for pointing it out!
@legoguy501 I think both of those suggestions would help a lot. Right now there's no pedal of any kind with the keyboard and the keys are not weighted at all, I think just having that pedal for holding the notes slightly would really make a difference. I agree with you completely, and I do think some percussion would help. I haven't found anything in garageband yet, but it really is lacking. Thanks, I appreciate it!
@Jayem Pretty much the same stuff I said to legoguy501 is applicable here. Thanks for the long drawn out notes idea...I'll try that!
@If I Were A Minifig
Thank you for your kind words, I hope it reaches its full potential!
