Title: Mario Paint Orchestra (Extend 1.08 9/20 update) View count: 13925 Rating: 4.9384613 (65 ratings) Description: New release available! http://rapidshare.com/files/146974812/Mario_Paint_Orchestra_Extend_1.08.zip.html Changes: Plus 1.13 & Orchestra v1.03 2008.09.20 - Tuned Swans Cello/Guitar sounds. - Made minor volume tweaks. - Extended Dog sound. (Plus) - Made piano sound one octave higher. (Orchestra) - Added note extensions for new notes in MPC2.0 - Piranha is Electric Guitar. - Coin is low octave Gameboy sound. - Shy Guy is low octave trumpet. - Boo is low octave piano. Orchestra Extend v1.07 2008.09.20 - Tuned Swans/Cats. I'm fairly certain they're tuned correctly now. - Adjusted some instrument volumes. v1.0 2008.08.29 - Vast improvements have been made to the instruments. Most instruments have been given a 15% reverb which substantially increases the sound quality, and extended to 2 seconds or more, - Vibrato and attack softening has also been implemented for most instruments. Sound List: - "Singing" Soprano Marios: Mario apparently has a very beautiful voice which he has hidden from the world until now. - Glass Starmonica: Made slightly offtune, slowed attack substantially and added tremolo to give a soft, but eerie armonica like feel. - The Animal Choir: 80 voice chorus consisting of 20 Countertenor Yoshis, 20 Tenor Dogs, 20 Mezzo-Soprano Cats, and 20 Bass Pigs. Most extensive modification as each voice is varied in pitch, accent, timing, and location. - Trumpet Flowers: Not much has changed aside from vibrato. - "Zelda" Gameboys: Simulated the sound apparent in the opening to The Legend of Zelda. - "Cello" Swans: Swan is now of a violin type. - "Mature" Baby Face: Baby is all grown up now, and as such has a more mature voice. - "Piano" Planes: Given a more spacial location to give a fuller sound. - "Pipe Organ" Cars: Added 40% reverb. - "Bass" Heart: Boring! Not much has changed, lowered it by one octave. (includes Mario Paint Plus in the collection) Mario paint Orchestra is a project I've been working on extensively for some time now. I've made some preview compositions upcoming to the release, and there have been videos made by a few other people (TheEvilGrimace and RehdBlob namely) which used the orchestra 0.7 beta. Granted, I didn't expect the controversy over this set due to its implications on the future of Mario Paint...so I'll explain my feelings on this. My intentions behind releasing these soundfonts are so people can have better tools in which to compose higher quality pieces, and to make the process considerably easier. In addition, one of my personal goals is to work for Nintendo as a composer. I got the idea to practice and learn music with Mario Paint Composer, and like everyone else, I ran into its limitations. But then I thought to myself, "Why not make it better?". So, here I am today, editing soundfonts. I'm actually quite surprised at how good Mario Paint can really sound, so I'm going to see how far I can take it. Imagine, a Mario Paint with no limits, and with sound so good it causes people's jaws to drop, and then be in disbelief when you say "Oh, this was made using Mario Paint sounds." That would be awesome wouldn't it? ^^ So, personally I don't think there's that big of an issue with the state of Mario Paint. I don't think its ruined in any way. Its just maturing into something grander, into a more sophisticated art form, but its still Mario Paint at heart. :D Okay, that being said, onto the soundfont descriptions. There are two versions. One is a "PETA"-friendly version, which includes a full 80 animal chorus, with Yoshis, Dogs, Cats, and Pigs. :D I put the most work into this one, as I wanted to get as genuinely close as possible to it being a real chorus. Each voice is slightly modified in pitch, accent, timing, and location, for individuality. The other set is 1.0e....which e stands for EXTERMINATION! Yeah, take that you stupid animals! (HAHAHA! *hides from the impending mob* -- actually the e stands for Extended, which is similar to the Plus e but signifies octaves instead of note duration) All the animal and face sounds have been replaced with lower octave sounds for instruments more commonly used. I hope both sets will prove to be useful for all types of Mario Paint Composers. Download, comment, rate! Tell me what you think!
