I didn't have three people to play with me at the timeâ€” you get three copies of me instead!

Thank you~! As for singing along, I have a group of friends trying to recreate it. We're all singing and choir geeks, so we might actually record it o.o~... who knows? x3

Thanks! Hehe... when you can't harass any of your friends to play music with you, just clone yourself! It took forever to do this though, with just me. I didn't add tuning to any of the tracks, and it took awhile to get them all down pat. Then to add a bit of darkness (because it's Portal!) I did some post shading to it (though, because the tracks were recorded in different light settings, the center is dark, the right is balanced, and the left is hella bright! I was too lazy to try to balance the brightness;;). All in all the process took ~1h30m from composing the scrolls in-game to the video finishing its rendering.

Wolff usually posts sheet music, doesn't he? If there is sheet music I can just spend 3 or 4 hours pulling it from that [[or extracting the MIDI and editing it...]] give me a link and I'll see if I can do it next weekend! :3

I was able to import it successfully; I think I'll take out everything but the first and last verses since it matches in melody to cut it down, but who knows how many people this will need. Right now it's looking at 5~8. D:

It'll be interesting to edit.

(The diamonds are full notes; I minimized them to "rhythm" tracks to better see the melody/harmony)

EDIT: After reading through the sheet music, I'll keep the following: Verse Two through the bridge and past the coda until the instrumental ends (Fading out before the lyrics start for verse three).

Hey Shadows, do you know where I can get the MML for this. I know a few people in mabi who would be more than willing to play this with me. Just did a 4-5 person band on Friday.
pinkkea wrote on 2011-08-21 15:26

Yeah, I'd love to see this played sometime in ch1 dunbarton.

Actually. Nevermind. It seems you already uploaded it to MabiMML.

Thanks!

o/ Can I be there when you guys play it?

Also, do not use the copy with the echo!! It doesn't work properly; I need to remove it. Use this copy: http://mabimml.org/jams_view.php?editid1=81

And one more note, instead of a flute, use a whistle.
