My latest creation....

I think this thing would be perfect for a shoot-em-up game.

I'll post the .ftm if y'all promise not to steal my DPCM....

It's like Bernard Purdie is hanging out in the room next to the TV.

That's a huge compliment! That Purdie shuffle is exactly what I was going for

Thanks!

If you'd like to keep your DPCM to yourself then I recommend only sharing an MP3. There's multiple ways of obtaining DPCM samples from NSF files.

But this sounds really cool, nice job.

Thanks, danooct.
I know you can rip DPCMs from NSFs, but it at least requires some effort. It's one click to just pluck instruments from .ftm's.

I'm not that bothered about it really, I just kinda like these, as I pulled them from multisamples I made of my own drum kit (except for the kick, which came from a Linn Drum).

Ha ha, it actually requires very little effort to steal your samples.

I made this before my post but figured it'd be in bad taste.

But of course, without your permission no one would (or at least should) use them.

Also, if you want to make it harder for people to try & rip your samples, you can always compile your NSFs into NES ROMs with No-Carrier's NES software (like LogoNES, GalleryNES, ScrollNES or VegaPlay).

This is really good. It kind of reminds me of some of the music in Uchuu Keibitai SDF, a NES shmup.

Good job dood, but you can't trust me. I usually always take dmc files, especially for toms. Always looking for good toms =P

By far one of my fave NES soundtracks.
My philosophy about samples: if someone steals your samples, just make better ones.

edit: This song is very worthy of Jun Ishikawa. Nice work!

Trusssssssst in ussssssss. :P

But yeah; it all goes back to the fact that there's no such thing as solid security. It's all about trust.

Wow! OK...Answering in order.

@rainwarrior of course I have your importer! I haven't ever used it for anything though.

@danooct1 you're a man of integrity.
I just figured that adding that one extra step of importing the NSF would be enough to deter casual sample-snatchers (if I was gravely concerned about it, yeah, I would have just put up a sound clip).

@gyms I was using the internal FT converter...thanks for the tip! I'll definitely use rushjet1's from now on.

@TechEmporium I hadn't thought of that! I appreciate the info.

@shywolf thanks for the compliments! Also, I haven't heard of, let alone played, Uchuu Keibitai SDF - I'm going to do that right away!
I kinda had Crisis Force in mind while making this.

@Raijin it's all good man, good toms are hard to come by!

@cak I appreciate it very much!

@Tech LOL! After all these years, Kaa is STILL mad creepy!

My goals for this tune were to
1. Use only 2A03 (I'm always tempted to use VRC6, just cause!)
2. Make a tight shuffle drum groove w/ ghost notes
3. Use somewhat irregular phrasing
4. Use unorthodox chord changes (it fools you into thinking it'll be a 12-bar blues structure by going to the IV chord...then throws you for a loop)

So, I think it's a success.

EDIT: Here's the FTM, mofos!
