This was made using a sample version of Kontakt Player that comes with Sibelius 3. Sibelius is one of the industry standard music notation/composition programs today. Kontakt Player is made by a 3rd party that Sibelius used to do rendering. Most composers today I understand are comfortable...

Yea - I'm going to go back and fix those eventually (once I get the full version of the new sound set so I have a distortion guitar that isn't from the old setup to overpower everything else... which will fix those chords). I plan to use this for the rest of Standoff, and included in Episode...

The chords at 0:30 seconds on are a mix of woodwinds, a few brass instruments, some percussive instruments, and distortion guitar. What's too loud and ridiculous is the distortion guitar - left over from the old sound set that needs to get something of a volume change (it's too loud for my...

I couldn't tell you what HCl called them, but that's how we refer to them, both here on Standoff and back on UE. I mean, its pretty clear to know what we're talking about from those names, so they work. That's probably one of the reasons it wasn't included. However, now that we're trying...

The most criticism that I recieved about my music for Standoff was in reference to the rendering of the MIDIs. Well, with the holiday season over and some money I picked up, this year, I decided that I would invest in a new sound set in order to try to improve the quality of the rendering that...

I was wondering if anyone still has or knows were I could get some of the WCP CG shots of the fighters. I think they might have been up on wingcommanderprophecy.com, but that no longer exists, and I could really use some high detail shots. Thanks.

The only triggers that the Vision engine allows for in terms of inflight music are as follows: Ambient Battle Battle with Heavily Damaged Battle Against Capships Mission Failed Mission Victory Each piece can either be one looping section or have an intro which leads into a looping...

That's not all we'll have new in Episode 2. As of late I've been looking into new sound sets for MIDI rendering. I'm not exactly sure what I'm getting yet, but there will be improved MIDI rendering in Episode 2 to make the music sound more real. If I can get it done in time, included in...

Yeah - my big problem is, well... I'm a college student. All my money I'm willing to spend on music stuff, and I do, but usually on instruments. I do a lot of writing in lots of different styles, so I need something that'll be very good for a low cost, but I have no need to create a studio -...

I had the same problem. That was the error I got running in 32-bit mode, but when I switched to 16-bit, it wasn't a problem anymore. I can't give you specifics as to why that error occurs as I don't know (but I'm not exactly an expert either), but that should fix it if you were running in...

This is true, but I'm looking to try a different spin on it. All that's been done before. How about hearing some music for the Kilrathi that sounds like the Kilrathi would have written it.

No, I'm sorry to say I don't. I'm not a guitarist, so I would know nothing about that stort of thing. I know enough about guitar to write music for it that is playable.... but that's just about it.

Its not that big of a deal, so don't go through too much trouble, but if you can... that'd be great!

Ace - I'm glad I could answer your questions. If you have any others at any point, don't hestitate to ask. Its very nice to have other musicians here to trade notes with (no punn intended). TransAm - I don't know the song you're talking about. Is there any way or anywhere you know of that...

I think its a great idea! I think you should deffinately go ahead with it.

Impressive setup - sounds great. I just wish I could afford it :( I'm thinking about getting a Korg Triton. I've been using a Korg X5D for a while and I love it, so the triton would be logical. I'm also considering getting a few software sets - Kontakt Player Gold seems pretty good and...

Well, I'm responsible for the music for UE and Standoff and I've always felt the music was suffering because I couldn't render it well. You've clearly got that bit down, so I was wondering what your setup was in terms of what you use and how you convert your writing into the audio track? I'm...

The vision engine isn't so great for the music too. There's so much more we could do with the inflight music in terms of transitions between songs if we had something that served our musical needs too. I don't care what anyone says, I'm doing a UE2 somehow... but it sure as hell won't be with...

I'm trying. It's pretty difficult. ;) While this is about the kind of music the Kilrathi would make, its also about your ideas as to what kind of music they would make. "I think they would probably make music like __________ because ___________." However, it would be correct to say that...

I'm willing to take a very active role in getting UE2 done. There were some ideas being tossed around before we got Standoff going full swing, and there were some... musical oppertunities that I'd love to try out. Besides, it could be a really great game. The big problem is the engine. We...
