You guys may not know this song. It's from Crystalis (there's a Crystalis remix in FFR), when you fight the final boss. I couldn't find a MIDI for it anywhere. I don't think there is one. So, I used a thing I downloaded to convert the chipsound (which I got from OCRemix) into a MIDI. Of course, this MIDI wasn't synced to any BPM, so I had to make the notes actually on the beats. That was annoying.

So I finally get the notes where I can mess with them and I arranged them around a bunch. The original loop is extremely short, so this song may sound quite repetitive, but I like it.

In case you wanna try remixing it yourself, or if you just wanna hear the loop, here's the MIDI I got when I pulled it out of the chipset. Just for kicks, try importing it into FL or something and see how un-synced it is.

Anywho, comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated. I'd seriously love to see this thing stepped and put into FFR, but I wanna make sure it's the best it can be. Please be as specific as possible with your comments. This is not a final version, no way. I expect to improve it as much as I can, but I need your help! :)

mmm.. I remember the good old Plucked!... lol good times

anyways.. its alright.. but yea repetitive. I would like it alot more if it had more variety. Try adding some more of your own stuff in to jazz it up a bit.

When I tried to listen to the song the website timed out, probably down for a little bit. Anyways I write pretty good stuff in fruity loops and would like to help you out if thats cool and/or ok with you.

You're actually getting damn decent with it. I would add some low base chords throughout most of the song, just so that you're always harmonizing against something.
