Smash Choir

I commented on High Heels Instrument, Shaken Nuts, and 8bit Messing.

This is great! I love how you used the voices to create melodies - really really fun to listen to. I also like how you cut out all the other instrumentation at :26, that section was my favorite part.

You did a great job of using the original voices' pitches to create the melody! I found it interesting how you used only sounds from the game to create the game's own theme song.

I like the choice of sounds, but it would have been more interesting if you didn't just use one sound for the main theme song. The non-varying lengths f the notes made it sound a little off.

I thought that the sounds strung together well. One of the bothersome things about the sampler is that no matter how much you change velocity and other options, notes don't really go for much longer than they did in the sound they were sampled from.

Very imaginative work, I had lots of fun. Very well employed the form ABA to give variety in the middle. It is true what you say about the note durations. To achieve them being longer we would need to set a loop part in the sample to be repeated while the key is pressed so that it can be longer. If you are interested to knwo how I can give you the video link from Lynda.com that explains how to do that with Logic sampler: http://www.lynda.com/Logic-Pro-tutorials/Advanced-zone-editing-looping/89610/97925-4.html

Using the game's sounds to recreate the game's theme song was definitely an interesting approach. The melody played through the noises from the game made the whole piece very fun to listen to. Good job!

This was really good, but in the B section in the middle I think the high pitched Yoshi sounds don't really fit with the theme, I think he's a little too silly for the more calm and melodic section but this was really well made, the tune itself was spot on and the extra sound effects were a good touch as well.
