*Your request may take a while, all depends when I have free time and how many people are waiting*
I took a private course a few years back doing advanced music production / mixing engineering, learning from and being coached by a truly gifted & talented person.
As well as dreaming of having a career in the audio industry, I enjoy making 4/8/16/32 bar clips of music that never turn into finished projects, they don't take long to make as they require no transitions or too much skill as a composer, however it's great practise for sound design, mixdowns, and building my own libraries of presets, etc.
Specializing in Drum & Bass, sub genres such as Liquid/Drumstep/Chiptune are my favourites and that which I am most accustomed to creating. I do however dabble in pretty much any type of EDM music, if I don't know how to do it, i'll learn.
If you would like a little custom fanfare made, feel free to reply to this thread and i'll see what I can do, might be done fast, might take a while please don't expect things done right away, although i'll do my best!
You may wish to include:
- Any instructions or guidelines you think will help to capture your idea.
- MIDI scores that I can import into Cubase.
- Have a specific sound in mind but not sure how to explain it? Link me to a song with a time frame stated.
- Audio samples: Sound effect, music clip, your own voice, whatever you want!*
- A link to any songs you like that can be used as a reference, this can help me to choose the right sounds.
*Please make sure samples are the best possible quality, and individual sounds are isolated as much as possible if ripped from a movie or whatever.
TUS can now load 300kb fanfares, which, for 320kbps mp3 is roughly about 6-8 seconds, longer if you use lower quality.
Fanfares for WA, i'm unsure about the limits, but generally they tend to play for a short time also.
I gain experience when producing and mixing music, and it's honestly one of the best feelings in the world creating music, so this is all free of charge, but there are a few conditions:
- If you include illegal samples, or another persons intellectual property, you can never use it commercially, if you do, I don't want to know about it.
- I reserve the right to copy/combine/create/trade/share/sell any original material created by me, such as sound design for example.
- Any original ideas/audio created by you will remain yours, if I ever want to use any material you provide for something other than your request, i'll ask for your permission.
- If you use my work for other stuff, please give me credit :)
If you would like to hear some of my previous work, you can listen here:
https://soundcloud.com/komito-1
^^Some of my personal favourites i've created over the last year and a couple older tracks too, by no means am I limited to what you hear there.
Pretty much every song is made with no plan whatsoever, started off by messing around and just adding bits, constantly changing things, improvising and messing around with sound design etc, i'm still searching for my signature style and constantly improving.
List of requests and progress:
- Mega`Adnan / Finished - https://soundcloud.com/komito-1/komito-megaadnan-fanfare-for-wa

Make "Lagnan" fanfare, with lagging dubstep. :D

Elaborate, be more specific, i'm a professional musician, not a psychic :D

Well. I dunno.
Make it as you like, just like the way you made "Lagnan" darts map. :D
-
Ok hah, I got an idea for you now :)
-
Fanfares for WA, i'm unsure about the limits, but generally they tend to play for a short time also.
There's no limit, but it has to be 16-bit WAV file
EDIT1: I'm also gonna get in, for PoC a fanfare with lots of construction noise in Worms leitmotif. WA sound effects can be used.
-
TheMadCharles - What do you mean by:
PoC?
Worms leitmotif?
By construction noise, you mean general audio from building sites, hammer, saw, digger, stuff being banged, dropped, thrown, connected etc?
What genre are you looking for? DnB? Dubstep? House? Other?
@Adnan, I got a funny idea, but had to fork out £75 to buy a synth for it :D (Np tho, will be used a lot in future also)

Np, take your time. 8)
-
I've been waiting for an excuse to buy it for a while but only need simple use for your fanfare :)
-
Ok adnan, 1st preview, let me know if you like it or not, this is private link, will be deleted after you listen:
https://soundcloud.com/komito-1/megaadnan-fanfare-wav/s-zc7d0
Depending on your browser/device, the very start of the clip may sound like it's missing, but I assure you, it's not.
Oh, forgot to mention, for this to be under 300kb, it needs cut, for TUS version I cut the little 1 bar buildup out, shorten the tail of the clip to end quicker(less reverb essentially), 320kpbs, and it's around 264kb.
-
I would like to have such fanfare if u offer.
My suggest is: At begin - strong electro drop and then some mystery/psychodelic sounds with the jokker laugh :)
-
If you catch some time, I would like fanfare too.
Something Back to the future related with reggae surroundings!? (throw reggae out and put trance if it's easier)
Thx.

Genres are so widespread with literally hundreds of different styles for each main genre, what sounds mysterious and psychodelic to me, might not be quite what you have in mind, same goes for the strong electro drop.
With that in mind, could you please provide some youtube references of "strong electro drop" and "mystery/psychodelic sounds" with some songs you already like, this will give me an idea of the type of sound to create for you :)
Also, by jokker I assume you mean from Batman? And any specific actor? Jared Leto, Heath Ledger, Jack Nicolson, or voice from the cartoon series?
I can be specific if you are, otherwise i'll just do whatever I feel like and could be nothing that you like :D
@Sensei - Do you mean reggae theme, or authentic reggae music? I could do some nice reggae Dubstep or Drum & Bass for you, something like this:
Obviously, I can't sing like a true rastafari haha, but I am sure there are TONS of samples out there.
-
First 14 seconds of intro but as chiptune.

Can you find another copy? It's blocked in my country lol.

Try to switch on other country in your OS settings like you change flags at Wormnet. Both links doesnt work for me too.

Lol, blocked too, is this it?
Really cool song, love that snare :D
Really like the riffs, those guitarists are wicked!
May take a while though, you are 5th in the que now :D
I will edit OP and make a list to keep me straight so I don't have to keep checking back.
-
Yup, that's the song. :) It's a sweet one indeed, one of the few Turkish songs I like.
Looking forward for the fanfare.
-
@Triad - Awesome! I like this one :)
Need a little more information before I can begin your fanfare though.
There are a number of chiptune styles, some are more limited and authentic than others, in order to create the perfect fanfare for you, could you please link me to some styles you have in mind?
-
Honestly, I have no particular style in my mind. Maybe something that will feel like it's from a NES game soundtrack but it will also give the metal feeling.
-
You can just mix somehow
This one of Mark's Hammil laughs
With the begining of this song.
Or crate your own interpretation 8)
-
keep in mind that - same as with soundbanks - your the only one able to hear your fanfare in(after)game.
ppl who dont got the file will hear country default fanfare if you dont share the sound.

PoC - Proof of Concept - mine & STRGRN's community about schemes
Worms leitmotif - (0:47 to 0:54)
Yea, pretty much, I'll leave that up to you how you want to execute that
If you can pull off Chillout that would be cool, otherwise you can fall back to House
-

Ok, i'm on it!
@Hussar
Got it, will do it as soon as I get a chance!
@TheMadCharles
Ah, you mean theme song :D
Not going to be able to pull off "Chillout" with construction noises lol, it's kinda the opposite of relaxing sounds :P
Personally, I would choose from either construction sounds, or Worms Armageddon SFX.
If it's WA SFX, Chillout is possible, but which style? DnB(Liquid)? Or House etc?
@Mega`Adnan - Remember, i've uploaded the demo version of your Fanfare, please listen ASAP and reply with feedback:

ROFL! I love it! Great dubstep! :-*
-
Cool adnan I will finish it up and upload wav version with download enabled today at some point.
For using on TUS you will need to convert and/or chop it up yourself for the 300kb limit, I can do this for you privately if you want.
-
Well, in order for people to hear my fanfare, I recommend you to do it publically.
But, as you wish. :P
-
I will upload the Worms Armageddon fanfare to my Soundcloud, pubicly, with instructions how to install to use in the game, I think people need to keep the same file name or someone else can't hear it when you win.(Can anyone confirm this?)
But for TUS, you upload it to your community/clan profile, and when someone visits that page, it automatically plays.
MI set the limit to 100kb originally, but most people have fast connections worldwide these days so 300kb is fine too.
For TUS, because the limit is 300kb, it's best to use mp3 so you can get a longer audio clip, but WA uses wav and there is no limit(we think?).
-
Ah okay! Now I get it!
-
Fanfare for Mega`Adnan finished and ready to download here:

Thank you! x)

Go for Liquid DnB m8
EDIT1:
Tried / In production
Welp, that's a misspell

Church silence
-
Yeah just too busy right now with other stuff to even open my laptop, haven't even been able to play WA for over a week :/
As soon as things calm down here I'll start progressing through these again, the important thing is I done the research and prepared all the fanfares(except Sensei as he has been ignoring me so I will cancel his request if he doesn't reply soon).
-
@TheMadCharles
Well, originally I wanted to try Liquid DnB, but I was messing around before doing that and ended up with this, it's chilling and relaxing, but not something you will be familiar with and not sure if you will like it, it's different anyway...
https://soundcloud.com/komito-1/komito-themadcharles-fanfare-for-wa-1/s-vIby3
Let me know if you like it before I spend too much time on it, otherwise i'll just go for some Liquid DnB.

Track not found, PM plz
EDIT1: nvm, I messed around with the link too much, lel
EDIT2: Pretty nice, but I don't hear the construction noise (duh), however with this the loudness of it is going to be too chaotic for it. Keep it up, man!
-
Yes I wanted to see if you liked that before spending more time, which sounds from sfx do you want included? (Please be exact, don't rough guess lol).

BlowTorch, CrateImpact, Drill, DrillImpact, GirderImpact
-
Ok, I will try to get yours finished this weekend, those sounds should sound nice with some eq/reverb to make them sound distant.
Being the festive Season i'm pretty busy now, I might not get it done until after the year, but hopefully around 7th Jan things will go back to normal i'll have more free time :)

*delete*

@Triad
Is this the style of chiptune you are looking for?
https://soundcloud.com/komito-1/komito-meh-chiptune-man/s-XaffW
(I will make it YOUR song once confirmed, this is something I am doing myself)
-
This indeed gives the NES soundtrack feeling but not sure can you give the metal feeling with this particular chiptune style.
-
Is it just me or is this thread not showing up on recent posts?
Anyway, just wanted to make like a 20 second clip to show you, ended up making a whole little song lol:
https://soundcloud.com/komito-1/komito-hello-chiptune
-
Fireworks everywhere! Happy New Year!
Where's my fanfare? xD
-
Hey, just been busy with the festivities mate, things starting to return to normal again back at work tonight, will get back to working on your fanfare this week :)
-
@TheMadCharles
Is this ok?
https://soundcloud.com/komito-1/komito-themadcharles-fanfare-for-wa/s-IFxxo
Let me know, so I can finalize it, or it you want it adjusted etc.

I was thinking of a bunch of these but very quiet ones in the background :/
-
@TheMadCharles
So you just want the WA sfx as it is, but quieter?
Remember it can only be so quiet before it loses itself in the mix.
It's very quiet as it is lol much more and it will sound terrible :/
Please answer about sfx order asap, is that ok? Cuz all I need to do is make the sfx quieter and export a master, waiting for confirmation.

Do quieter
-
Can't I give this fanfare thing a try so you have some time to do the other requests?
-
I've got Hussars setup ready to go, but you could do it if you want?
Charles is pretty much finished just need to adjust volume of SFX a bit, Triads I need Liam to do help me with some notes and I really want to do that one myself it's really cool.
You could try the one Sensei was asking for if you want? I cancelled it as he never replied to my questions.
Edit:
@TheMadCharles
https://soundcloud.com/komito-1/komito-themadcharles-fanfare-for-wa/s-LFbV4
How about this? When you are happy I will make final adjustments, and is this one for use in the game, or for TUS?
For TUS it will either have to be shorter, or a drop in quality, for WA it can stay as it is i'll cut it up and make the long ass reverb tail fade out much faster.
I don't mind making 2 different versions for you if you would like that, mp3 for TUS and wav for WA.
Btw, this would get done a lot faster if you checked forums every hour or so hint hint wink wink, nudge nudge ;)

I think this will be the final version. You can do both, for TUS make it shorter to the 2nd chorus line (referencing to Wormsongs), just like the "Worms!" fanfare is.
Also, ya know, school is a thing right now and I return to home about 4pm CET on average and I can't type on Android keyboard for god's sake.
EDIT1: Cut out the silent intro as well plz
-
Will have that ready for you tonight :)
-
Also, prepare for next request xD
Just listen, find the magic keeee-eeeey :D

Wrong description how? I'm out at pub right now.
Filename isn't too long it works fine for me, speak to adnan he had same problem and fixed it ok.
