Can anyone "Orchestrate" the CT Soundtrack
« on: February 08, 2010, 04:50:11 pm »
Well after figuring out what I really need to push CTA over the edge, I figured why not a movie-quality orchestrated version of the CT soundtrack!!!

So... is there one of these out or could someone be nice enough and lay down a few tracks for me?

Lol, just trying and throwing it out there, I need a movie quality soundtrack.

Chrono Symphonic. I think you can download it here.

Well I have heard of this and thanks for the suggestion mr. bekkler.

But I will not be going with that one. I hate OC Remix with a passion, no offense to them... i guess, but I also hate the fact that instead of orchestrating the original soundtrack, they mix and match themes.

I find that soundtrack to be okay, but not what I am looking for.

Well, I think there are several orchestra tracks if you google it, for example, CT main theme and a medley of several tracks.
But I doubt there are all of the orchestrated tracks.

It's a shame that noone just did all of the original tracks in orchestra/theatre like fashion.

While I don't know any big remix sites aside from OCR, you can always find some songs on Youtube.

However, there are some submissions on OCR (that were originally on youtube or elsewhere) that are quite amazing. I'd suggest Black Wind Rising for Magus (this song is LOVE), Corrupter of Time for Zeal, Aqueous Transgression, At The End of All Things, Calamitous Judgment, Subterranean Opus, aaaand a few others whose names I have forgotten. There is a stunning piano arrangement of Wind Scene on CHRONOTORIOUS, as well.

I think this contains most of the best tracks in game.
And you can just find other substitutes (not all those on OCR can please you, but that doesn't mean none of them, hmm)

utunnels, that is exactly what I am looking for, the style that is.

That is just a beautiful piece of work right there.

That looks to be as close as I am gonna get, unless i employ someone. And they probably won't work for free.

Oh well, we will see.

Other than those YouTube videos, I'd have to say that the ONLY way to get what you're looking for will consist of obtaining the following:

- The original conductor score from the composer (Good Luck convincing Mitsuda to get some royalties paid)
- A 48-piece orchestra (most likely, they'll want to be paid for their services)
- A recording studio (Costly in its own right just to rent out)

And we wonder why there isn't something as good as film-soundtrack quality music for CT out there.  Chances are, if CT were to be made into a film trilogy, chances are they'll hire someone to write the score (cross your fingers that they hire Mitsuda; Uematsu would've been my second pick, followed by John Williams)

Actually I could do what Chi_Z did and tried to put it on FL Studio

Fruity Loops?  I don't know how far you can get with it, but you could try.

There are plenty of crack versions of it already out there, so getting one should be a breeze.

Oh the only problem is learning the damn program. I'd rather get someone who is good with the thing.

They have tutorials of the program on their website.

It can't be that hard to learn.
