unfa has a new toy!
Must test it on something other than my crappy old laptop speakers.

Indeed! Dubstep is fun to make

For me it works best on headphones, my speakers are old too and have no sub.
RE: I made a bass drop. - Maddin - 08-09-2011
I get hooked of this track!
Makes me hyped up...
RE: I made a bass drop. - unfa - 08-09-2011
Maybe if it has such an effect on people, it could work as an in-game track?
RE: I made a bass drop. - Maddin - 08-09-2011
Definitely, yes!
RE: I made a bass drop. - The mysterious Mr. 4m - 08-09-2011
Hey! unfa! Can't You keep your stuff just a little shorter? And convert it to M4A, so that people can put it on their older cell phones, carry it home and plug it into their DolbySurround-enabled system? Eh?
The "You're awesome!" sounds (for headshots, airshots, etc.) should be replaced with just effects instead of text.
RE: I made a bass drop. - chooksta - 08-09-2011
short as in time? (hi hi mr 4am
)or size of file?
M4A????????? , im not sure ive heard of that format?
soundforge may convert that , idk.
interesting to find out this anyway , then we could cater for people's needs
let me know if im needed

(just got the file and played it)
YAY! go unfar! , your going to have to help me on making this stuff too , ive been busy , but i am having a struggle on it , i was thinking of using a mic to get the sounds i want , then stomping on em
big tune , but if ya relax (kinda) and take the time to tune in , its a good track,
i could pick a few problems with it , but if ya listened to my stuff , then ya would know i should take my own advice
unfar: is that a final cut? , how long to make? , HELP ME MAKE DUB STEP TOO !!

RE: I made a bass drop. - Maddin - 08-09-2011
I know it is actually quite a lot of bass but maybe you could add even more?
To be honest I listened to this track for some hours now! My ears get... well... blown away!
RE: I made a bass drop. - unfa - 08-09-2011
LOL I didn't expect such a big feedback for this one
I'm pleased with it, feedback keeps me wanting to do this stuff! Thank you guys!@Maddin: Cool to hear that
I wouldn't want to put more bass, could make the mix disbalanced, if you want moar you can still just EQ it (low shelf filter with +3~6 dB gain somewhere around 60 Hz should do the trick, of course it depends on the hardware you use)
(or I could release a special - unfairly EQed version with more bass to it for the bassoholics 
.@Chooky: Well I don't see anything I could make better in this track right now so I temporarily consider it a final shot. It took em.... probably 5~6 hours of work total + 5 years of gathering experience
If you have some thoughts on how I can improve it further - let me know I might be deaf to some problems, because I got used to them. I just hope it's mixed well and the sub basses are not too loud and not too quiet (this is problematic for me most of the times). If you'd like to learn some stuff about making sounds like theese - I'll think of some way I can help ya 4m Wrote:Hey! unfa! Can't You keep your stuff just a little shorter? And convert it to M4A, so that people can put it on their older cell phones, carry it home and plug it into their DolbySurround-enabled system? Eh?Shorter? I could cut off the second bass drop but that would be a pain ;(
I most of the times try to keep it as short as possible, but sometimes I need to add some duration in there to let the things properly unwrap themselves and to build a tension. But yeah - I think I still have these things a bit too long. Maybe. Or maybe not
Could you write some more on why do you think it should be shorter?4m Wrote:The "You're awesome!" sounds (for headshots, airshots, etc.) should be replaced with just effects instead of text.Sounds interesting! Do you think some sounds form my tune could work? Like an angry dubstep bass squeak for headshot? And a quickly LFO-ed dubstep bass for airshot?
Is that what you mean?
Btw: If we did so, we'd need a tutorial in the game to make people know what those sounds mean.

MP3 would do too. ;P
Btw, FFMPEG can convert it just fine (to either format), but to answer one of unfa's questions; one of the reasons I wanted it shorter was that when I converted it to M4A it was 10 MB +, and my site (i didn't want to use the cable, because the phone then needs to restart) has a 10 MB file limit, then it takes time to transfer the file to my cell phone....
It was really just a thing of comfort.
Oh, and take a look at my tracks to understand me a little:
Payenczyna (1:17 min)
RayAction2 (1:49 min)
Mad Robot Pirate Ninja Skillz (1:14 min)
My longest is SecFence2 with insane 3:41 minutes!
RE: I made a bass drop. - unfa - 08-17-2011
The Mysterious Mr. 4m:
As for your tracks:
Payenczyna: sounds a bit chaotic and noisy, I think it lacks some structure and sound selection could be better.
RayAction2: I like this one much better! Has some really nice beat, interesting stereo effects in the middle and it sounds much more organized than Payenczyna. Keep it up!
Mad Robot Ninja Skillz: Funny one
Reminds me a bit of old 8-bit game music. Unfortunately the main riff is present throughout almost entire track which gets me tired listening to.SecFence: Starts up nicely. I like these oldschool synths
It could use some chord progression that would make the whole track go up and down, that could make it much more interesting. Nice experiments, really nice sounds I hear here Keep doin' it!I just made two shorter tracks on your demand
