    • Update!
    <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sj5He0QhKhM" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sj5He0QhKhM</a>


    I took a gameplay video from Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One, and rescored it! And added SFX!

    Okay, so, the first three seconds are just filler, the good stuff happens when the camera pans away and the big guy is introduced, and after that it's just more filler music for another 2 seconds.

    This is actually how someone would score music for a game like this. The main level music would fade out as soon as that cutscene (0:03) starts, and the cutscene's music would fade in, and then seemlessly transtiion to the "boss music" (the last few seconds of music at the end).

    So, in actuality, it's three pieces of music that crossfade with one another.
    1. Main level music.
    2. Cutscene music.
    3. Boss battle music.

    I only had a short video to work with, though, so I really only concentrated on part 2, since parts 1 and 3 were so short in the video.

    Anyway, enjoy! :D

    • Quit making me lose faith in my abilities :mad:

    In all seriousness I loved the sound of it, and when the strings kicked in it made the piece all the better. My only complaint would be that the rhythm sounds kinda choppy and erratic, although that may have been your intention. Is this all East-West orchestration? Because you seem to make it sound far more real than when I use it.

    • It's east west, and some Alchemy patches (free!), and a bunch of loops for the rhythm. Lol, the erraticness is probably because of those loops. To get away from blatantly and obviously stealing other peoples loops, I layer a few of them together and chop them up to make them fit. Sometimes it's not 100%, but I don't really care as long as the energy is there.

    As far as getting East West sounding better, it's all about layering, and knowing when to use a compressor. Those hits are, like, a combination of the 70 piece string marcato patch, the timpani patch, and the trombone marcato patch. I always compress my timpanis, and sometimes my low strings, just to make them pop out more without necessarily making them "louder."

    But it's mostly the layering. You gotta figure, these patches weren't meant to be used alone. They were meant to be used all together, right?
