Shipwrecks and Demons!

Good title?  Either way, here is the latest revision to the track I am working on.

Synopsis:
Some ambient background music I guess, I picture the situation being as follows:  Your character has just been shipwrecked into a woodsy area, you start exploring your surroundings, find a small clearing to a cave perhaps, then the monster(s?) come out!  Maybe you wake up? 🙂

Scary!(er?)

Here’s a little longer clip in the same vein as the previous.  I imagine myself staring at a large anvil in a dark outdoor woodsy area, maybe near a shipwreck.  Like a password/menu/stage select screen/area or something.  Then, the monster comes out at you!!!  But, that’s just me… 🙂

Wrote a little ditty that reminds me of the Diablo games.

More XV-5080 testing

Short clip below of me trying to learn how to use the 3xMFX that the XV has available.  Yes I know it doesn’t sound great, I just wanted to figure out how to use three separate DSPs for 3 different instruments..  something none of my other synths can technically do. :O

Welcome to the SynthSudio.NET blog!  Currently, our new site is under construction.

As a short sample of what’s to come, below is music from Doom 2 recorded using a Roland SC-8850.  In time I will add complete pages about the entire remix process of the songs.
