/jp/ - Otaku Culture

this guy makes pretty good music and its free (cc licensed) as long as you give him credit:
http://incompetech.com/m/c/royalty-free/

theres a TON of genres and a lot of it is good for vns and videos and stuff so have a look around

>>8517901
Thanks, bro.

Not OP, but I'm interested in a program where you can "slap a bunch of random shit together and export it" like in Garageband.

Anything like that for PC?

>>8517918
np, pleasure doing buisness lol

>>8517964

>>8517981
Well then, any chance you'd be able to help us out with #2?

>>8517997
fl studio or lmms if your cheap
if you want something simpler to just cut up audio or w/e audacity (free)

>>8518005
Sugoi...
I never thought I'd find someone useful on /jp/.

>>8517890
Newgrounds.com has a huge section of music under Creative Commons. Lots of good stuff there.

>I just made a 6500 word visual novel
That's short.

>>8518025
It has 162 images.
It has more of a focus on the art and the effects than the writing, anyway.

>>8518025
Better than nothing, especially if the VN is not NVL.

>>8518046
Y-You wouldn't like it, trust me!
It's really bad...

BTW OP, do post a download link once you're done. I'm kinda curious now...

>>8518048
is this art your posting the art from it because its pretty good

>>8518056
It's, uh...
It's a bit all over the place.
Let's just keep it at that.

>>8518048

I'm interested in playing your VN too anon.

>>8518048
Welp, do whatever you want, man, just thought it'd be cool to see some random stuff.

>>8518067
well mabe you could post it then we help you improve

>>8518046
>>8518080
>>8518081
>>8518086
Ohhhh, fine!
I'll post it when it's finished 100%!

Jeez...

>>8518093
just as planned

>>8518019
Sadly, this.

They have quite a large selection you can sample from, but not that much variety. Still, it's a good place to ask around.

Look around Moddb they have tons and I mean tons of music composers looking for projects free of charge of course.

As long as you intend to release the VN for free, you can take the music from anywhere.

The FSO campaigns do this all the time.

>6500 word

that's what, two scenes?

do you get to fuck china in it?

For fucks sake, /jp/. An avatarfagging off-board poster creates a thread to ask for help with his OELVN and you just help him just like that? Might as well directly ask LSF to come here.

This is a good list for some tools for making the music: http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/tools/

Has some other stuff too, just look down at the "Audio Tools" section. They're all free.

>>8519755
He wasn't that bad, he just used his image instead of a trip.

>>8519770
Avatars are worse than trips.

>>8519755
Who is LSF? I've never come across this.

>>8519794
There's no difference. The only thing that's important is whether it's a contributor like Remilia, or a waste of space like Tokiko.

Use music from your favorite instrumental artist or something. As long as you don't sell it, it is fine. Hell you could even use non-instrumental stuff.

>>8519755
Back to /b/, ``please''!

not exactly "slap a bunch of random shit together" but you could import midi files into a program like ableton live and tweak to your heart's content. live makes it easy to export loopable files as well.

>>8520837
Why do people do this? It's been hours--didn't you read the thread? OP is happy and the thread has peacefully ended.

Now people are just going to keep answering the question.

i'll make you some music if you pay me

>>8520866
Please note that MIDIRips are pretty much a minefield when it comes to the opinions of people who make the MIDIs, regardless of how or why you do it. Making a MIDIRip and not crediting the original composer is considered very wrong.

As someone who did not take it easy once put it,
>As both a former MIDI sequencer (submitted quite a few to VGmusic) and remixer, I absolutely despise the suggestion. Far too many times have my stuff been stolen, have a few track patch changed, then resubmitted or posted elsewhere by some random bastard claiming full credit on their work. It's fine to use midis as a starting point for remixing, but their's just no artistic merit in doing crap like this.

This is interesting. Gonna download some of the stuff in here and give it a try. Thanks for the names and info.

Buy your songs from Nash Sound Library like all the cool programmers do.

Hi OP, I'm the only composer I know of on /jp/ though, though I do mostly quirky electronic/video game stuff I can also do more advanced stuff.

I can do a couple of "standout" tracks for you maybe, and you can go with more generic Creative Commons stuff for the rest.

LSF is the Lemmasoft forums. Not the nicest place to be, but can be helpful in these regards.

Here's my thread on LSF if you're interested in my stuff:

ZUN!bar makes music

>where I can just slap a bunch of random shit together and export it as a loop?
Making music is a lot more complex than that, faggot.

>>8520965

I didn't know that, link to his stuff?

>>8520968

it is, but to be fair, computers have gotten better at this stuff.

I get bored of generic soundtrack shit, but really, it does it's purpose, not every VN can be Umineko.

>>8520957
And now we get people unironically linking to LSF because it's apparently a good place.

>>8520978

it's just the thread where I dumped a bunch of my older music. It's not reflective on the nature of LSF in general.

>>8520990

I like how you complained that nobody is interested in your music, adorable~

>>8521008

Well, it sucked that other threads were attention for much more generic music.
