    Piano Etude (Demon Fire) - Remake

    So, I know this song has been out for a while but I like it so...

    W.I.P.

    http://soundcloud.com/cheztheguy/piano-etude-demon-fire-remake-preview

    I'm making this in FL Studio because that's the only main DAW I use, lol. Here's a screenshot of the piano roll (in beautiful 1080p HD because I'm awesome like that):



    So, should I continue this and if I do, should I make a midi? I've searched around the internet for a while and I haven't found one yet...

      cosmovibe has made sheet music of this song

      It sounds pretty good/close so far though

          Sounds good, the only thing i noticed was lack of dynamics, use a volume automation clip for that mid section

          Other than that sick work

                  sounds good so far, but you really ought to mess with the velocity settings a bit more; piano has a tendency to sound pretty stale when most of the notes are the same velocity. though not an absolute necessity since it sounds pretty good already, it might still be worth looking into a very high quality piano bank for it.

                  ps why remake it? just for fun?

                      For some reason, the song sounds like a badly tuned piano as soon as the intro ends. As the above poster suggests, it probably has to do with the particular piano samples you're using.
                      And yeah, I also agree on focusing on dynamics, especially for a piano performance piece. Study the original song (and if you have it, the score) and see if you can imitate those dynamics...or maybe put your own spin to it.

                          It may be a bit more work but using two or even three piano's instead of placing every note onto one would be helpful.
                          (as if you're actually writing the music out for live playing Treble/Bass Clef)
                          Then you could also give each of them different levels and yaddayadda.

                          Also, the leveling is a bit weird; pretty noticeable at 0:09 because the piano is clipping itself and then comes back to a higher volume at 0:10.
                          Dynamics are an issue as well but everyone else has told you that already so buh/

                              dynamics, and some held notes are of immediate issue when listening
