Was pleasantly surprised not to hear Never Gonna Give You Up. This sounds great, never heard the original, so I don't know how accurate. It's a bit quiet, and a bit unbalanced, but other than that, it's great.

Hey, atleast I am serious. And also, whats the problem? Is it bad that I covered it?

https://www.dropbox.com/s/gfg4a0sdt2w9maq/SANDSTORM%20-%20%28darude%29.mp3?dl=0 This is the original song.
And yeah, I am not really happy with the triangle that goes down, but that'll come sooner or later.

No, the cover was nice, but.... just no. That meme got so stale SO quickly, no offense. XD When I first saw that as a reply to a comment a few months ago, the sarcasm made me chuckle a bit. But as time went on, people were spamming it MORE and MORE in every fucking comment like it was the new "Pingas" or something. You're not in the wrong here. This meme is just obnoxious to me, and I was surprised to see it here in the Famitracker forums...

I feel you.

8BitZuner: Sounds better than that pathetic piece of garbage that people like to call "music". How about you remix this by adding some variety? I would love it more if you did so.

mmkthecoolest: I'm more of a guy that wants a cover precise as the original.
Maaaaaybe there's a chance for it.


sparkyrogers: You can say out of luck that I didn't start spamming.
But, I was covering it because I enjoy the song.

Well, at least I am glad you're not one of those horrendous spammers on YouTube.

FACT: I actually heard this song way before it became "viral". In a TV commercial.

Try this wave for the lead instrument:

15 15 15 15 15 15 15 14 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 15 15 15 15 15 15 15 15 15 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

Then set arpeggio to +24

Then change the volume envelope so it's flat at the top for the first 8 frames or so.

Corrected somethings and added a lower sawtooth on the 7th channel (i always avoid 7-8 channels) to make it sound like the original song.
Also changed the lead waveform which was made by Dwedit.

Looks like for me it has been put on hold, but we can work together on it.

The cover is good but the sound of the "sandstorm" wave is way off. You've got an arbitrary waveform here, so you might as well get it right!

Here's my 5 minute attempt to get a closer sound. Had to reduce the volume of all the other channels to make up for the difference in town.

Could be better still, but I'm just trying to give a quick example.
