FamiTracker
I have noticed that there is no famitracker songs for castle crashers here and have decided to make this. I had to watch a person play it on piano in order to put it into sheet music which I could translate into notes for famitracker. This is the song Four Brave Champions (title theme). I am also new at this so please be kind.
Welcome to the forums! Hope you like your stay and learn new things here!
First off, this forum does not allow implicit links. You have to type the URL in the tag after the = sign.
Second, this could use some percussion and bass. I don't feel like doing this right now, but some kicks and snares would be nice. And seriously. This sounds really, really empty without bass or percussion. You know you could just use Dxx effects instead of Bxx in most of these frames except for 12, looping back to frame 04. Just saying.
Last, but not least at all (in fact, this is probably one of the more important things here), specify duty. Really. Duty changes the timbre of the notes. For a piano, use V01 on the 2A03 or V05/6 on the VRC6. Without duty, it's just harpichords and brass, and brass. No, not even that sounds like it.
Anyways, I know that was a bit harsh. I'm sorry if this offends you. But this could use a lot of improvement.

I think this is a very good attempt, especially since this is your first song. I personally think that this song feels a little too empty, but it's maybe because this is a piano cover. Maybe adding more instruments would do it, especially if you want to make this song sound more like the original one. But this is a piano cover, so it's not really a big deal.
The biggest problem that I had with this song is the duty cycles and that there no volume slides at all, so I quickly added some more piano-ish instruments to hopefully make this song sound better. Keep practicing, and I'm sure you'll become a lot better over time...

thanks for the feedback. I am pretty much greener than grass when it comes to this. I will need to look at the bass section to see about notes and I will see what I can do to make it better. The help function hasn't been working as of yet so I can't get the effects table but I will see if it is a problem on my end and not Famitracker.
EDIT: I have added a thing or two to make it sound better. Unfortunatey I am terrible at composing by ear so I will not be able to have proper bass or percussion. I have noticed when listening to it that it does work with octaves and I have been able to put that in and include the VCR6 pulse 2.
