Conian's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[The End RMX Linkfan]

Ouch

The all-over idea is good, but your synths leave ALOT to be desired. They sound rather standard FruityLoops-ish, to be quite frank. Also, be sure to tweak the volume on your recordings. At around 3.00, the song starts clipping like crazy. Go ahead, experiment some more with filters on those synths, keep an eye on the volume and re-sumbit, because I want to hear this one cleaned up! It's got potential!

linkfanzeldamario responds:

Okay, I agree with you but I've wanted try the experience ;)
Thanks for the comment.

[Ricco Harbor (NES remix)]

Good job

You did a good job there, the only things I didn't like were the low volume on the drums (crank 'em up!), the samples you used for the drums (a bit too fuzzy) and the seemingly random tremolo on the first main lead.

BadCommandCo responds:

Those weren't mistakes, that's what the DPCM channel in an NES sounds like. High quality samples just can't happen.

[Keep Moving]

I like the groove.

Loops very nicely,
Can you say "Skies of Arcadia"? :P

Tunemi responds:

You know I should look for that soundtrack, the last time I played that game, I had a Dreamcast.

[Rig - Slovakian Lullaby]

Awesome voice!

I honestly can't understand a word of it, yet it soothes me.
Best voice I've heared in a long long time!

Rig responds:

Yay!

[PowerMetalProject]

Please tune your guitar better

I like bits and pieces of this song, not the entire thing. The chord progression and all over sound are quite chaotic and the guitars sound out of key or not tuned properly a few times. From 0.52 up to (but not including) the end, the song rocks, but you really need to work on this some more.

Drumurboy responds:

Ya i had work in progress on this but i guess it didn't get added to the author comments. Thanks for the constructive crits

[Ruddy - Children(Miles remake)]

I don't hear... ooooooh, wait!

Nice version of the song, but... Where's the volume?! It's waaaaaaaay too soft!

Ruddy88 responds:

yeah sorry bout that, volume on flstudio was turned right down when i exported it i think.

[MC BigBoy--On Patrol (demo)]

That's what I'm talking about!

Yeah, you nailed it there. The equalising did the trick, the overall sound's even more balanced now. Clipping's gone, or has at least been minimalised. Ace!

Yodamanjaro responds:

Thank you!

[Peace and Hope]

Nice!

Nice piano piece, you've defenitally know your way around a piano. ;-) Try adding some reverb to the entire thing though, it sounds a bit unnatural this way.

Athius responds:

Strangely, my piano looks just like a keyboard. Kind of like the other instruments. And about the reverb... I'm quite new to the keyboard, as I just got it this christmas and I just recently learned how to add effects. I haven't been much into them. I was planning on buying one of them pedals for my keyboard, but I haven't yet made up my mind. We'll see what will happen.

[A walk in the forest (beta)]

Weird...

It's a bit weird sounding, which is good... However, the piano and the synth are both sticking out like a sore thumb. The synth because of it's volume compared to the rest of the instruments, the piano because it's A) constantly playing the same very short loop and B) sounds like a VERY crappy midi piano. (Whether or not that was your intention, try to find a better one. If you want this kind of sound, synth piano's from SNES roms are great and will sound better than this one.)

Greatfaith responds:

I'll lower the volume of the synth. And I'll change make the piano different from time to time, so it doesn't repeat the same thing the whole time.
Thanks for the feedback :)

[(IPG) Dunk that Funk]

Sounds good, but...

I'm waiting for a bass to join in! That's basically all this song needs: a nice, easy, walking bass to finish it all up.

Iplaygames responds:

Good point.... thank you
