Grimosaur Posted November 30, 2017 I really want to make my own midi and soundtracks for WADs but I really don't think its worth it to spend over 100 quid getting full-on professional music software just so I can make some stanky midis. Any suggestions would be nice. 3 Share this post Link to post

-Votterbin- Posted November 30, 2017 If you have an iPhone or an iPad, I'd recommend Medly. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/medly/id940268124?mt=8 The base app is completely free, so you get access to about 16 instruments and drum samples, though you can buy more packs for a couple of dollars or get all the audio samples and instruments for about $10 USD (don't know how much that is in quid). 0 Share this post Link to post

Megalyth Posted November 30, 2017 I haven't done a whole lot of MIDI stuff, but I usually lay down the basics in FL Studio. For more extensive MIDI work, Sekaiju is probably what you're looking for. 0 Share this post Link to post
Grimosaur Posted November 30, 2017 (edited) I played around with Anvil a bit more and I think I'm definitely going to go with that, its perfect :3 2 Share this post Link to post
Doomkid Posted December 1, 2017 If you do get the urge to mess around with various MIDI tools, I enjoy composing in Guitar Pro and fine-tuning in Sekaiju. Just tossing a couple more recommendations out there! 0 Share this post Link to post
yakfak Posted December 2, 2017 at this point im willing to place a bounty for the first good MIDI Tracker. the junk out there right now makes you assign your individual channels to MIDI channels and most don't even try to recreate the .XM/.IT inline effects with MIDI commands at all what I want is a tracker which dynamically places notes in appropriate channels, synthesizes tracker effects with MIDI effects in a way that actually suits the ear and then exports to .MID without you having to hold its hand every step of the way cos I fuckin hate sequencers with all my heart and most of my soul 3 Share this post Link to post
yakfak Posted December 7, 2017 (since posting that rant I checked out Midget II for DOS and it's almost everything I wanted... no .XM/.IT style effects but everything else is solid. having troubles exporting non-wobbly .MIDs but it might be something I'm doing wrong with teh song data) 0 Share this post Link to post
