You had a few mistakes, probably just a accident.
Also, tweaked a few things.


Overall this song get repetitive, you should try to add some more Variety.

That's a major improvement, BattleBeard. Sure; it was a little rough on the edges because of your VRC6 sawtooth drone note, but yucca70 modified it so that there are no note conflicts.

It's a great start, but it's a bit repetitive. So, for your next tune, let's try something with syncopation; something that flows in a more poetic motion, with greater variation.

That's much better. I actually like where this is headed. You should post your other tunes in this thread so it's easier for us to keep track of how you're improving as time goes by!

No problem at all, that's what I'm here for. :>

Looking forward to hear more of this. I think you probably put more time and effort into this than in your other tunes, and it shows.

This is a great start BattleBeard - I really like the percussion especially.

Nice tweaks Yucca! You are really applying the things we talked about. Good job.

I have some ideas of places you could take this tune, chord-wise, if you'd like to hear them.

I like where this new song is going, honestly. But I do have a little recommendation for you.

Your square wave channels have volume levels that are very close to each other, as well as the fact that they're playing at the same octave. This makes the song a bit less tolerable than it can potentially be.

Where your first square channel has a volume of 7, try dropping it down to 5. Where your second square channel has a volume of 9, try increasing it to A or even to B. Then, try to decrease the first channel's octave down one level.

I hope this helps.
