my new midi

http://midishrine.com/midi/12774.mid what do you think? if you REALLY cant tell what song it is ill tell you, but i want to see if you can guess from my rendition

[DarthJordan]

White & Nerdy by Weird Al?

[Blumonkeyboy]

yep! I would also accept Riding Dirty by Chamillionare. what did you think??

[shellybellypolo]

Theme song for something?

The Black Parade?

:confused3

[Blumonkeyboy]

BTW i know that the drums are a little off somtimes, i work differently than most ppl.

I record the melody while listening to the real song ( to keep my rythem) but then i play the drums live with the pre recorded melody. Most midi makers work that backwords drums ( or drum machine) first

[VMK_MagicalLadee]

It sounds like its skipping. @_@

[Blumonkeyboy]

sorry it is a rough draft and i hit a few wrong notes. ( i play by ear and cant read sheet music)

[ktbutterfly2011]

The drums... yeah not working for me they just sound like your banging on them most of the time. They dont' fit with the music. But i'm a real perfectionist when it comes to music so idk.

[DizParks]

I don't want to sound mean or anything, but it just seems like the same notes are playing over and over and over again.

[StitchfansJr]

I'm sorry, but it doesn't sound like White & Nerdy at all.
DizParks is right though.

[Blumonkeyboy]

any way that i can improve ?? If it helps make it better i didnt model it on the studio version. I modeled it on the live version from leno and Bermbuda plays that VERY SAME drum riff there http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqKlXU_MvzA&mode=related&search=

[ktbutterfly2011]

Well it sounds like
NUMBER 1; The drums are entirely too loud.
NUMBER 2; I'd still work on some of the rhythms
Its too bad you can't read sheet music because i'd try to write some drum music for you.

[Blumonkeyboy]

if you can that would be great. I will do my best i can tell where C is and if it goes up and down ( 7 YEARS of singing and you think id be better lol) im a singer not a drummer and i am typing with the same thing i use to play the music. So i hit 51515151 + for drumroll cymbol im working on V2 and its almost down

[Blumonkeyboy]

Try this one! i know that the piano part sounds bad but i never played it before, and it is also hard to play on a typing keyboard http://midishrine.com/midi/12776.mid or ( reduced piano) http://midishrine.com/midi/12777.mid Also some of it i got from Riding Dirty live. thats why its a little different

Jw, but how come there's no screaming if this is a real concert?
Here's a Rascal Flatts concert? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnizJKzOaSA
See the difference?

[Sparx]

its the same notes being played over and over. :confused3

[tinkerbell12]

I don't think it sounds like anything but some bums and a weird computerized sound. Sorry.

You are repeating the same notes over and over again for 3 minutes.

[Blumonkeyboy]

well thats pretty much what the song is for real ill post some of the instrumental

I copied the live version but still same idea

[TheBellhop]

I've worked with MIDI software before, if you've heard of Garageband by Apple then you'd be familiar with the stuff I've tried out. I'll tell you this, those drums are terribly off, and the strings don't come in at the right time...as well as the piano. Everything is just a mess, it's not structured at all. You've got to work with timing/time signatures a little bit first. I play piano/keyboard and that's really helped me out as far as timing. Meh, everyone's got to start somewhere, good luck.

[Blumonkeyboy]

thank all of you for being honest, It would sound better but A this is my first try and B i play the songs with the same thing i use to type. Im also going to have one of my friends ( a drummer) see what can be done with the drum tack

[Blumonkeyboy]

BTW i use Anvil Studios

Which one so far was best? i know they all sucked but one had to be better right?? ill try to build off it
