Frequently asked questions (FAQs):
Q: How long did this take you to do?
A: I created the first save file on April 1st (no joke) then I procrastinated it until the 18th of April. From then, I carried on working on it until the 22nd. Over-all it took about 15-20 hours to make.
Q: How do you get a tempo of over 500?
A: If you’re asking me this question now then that means you’re using an out-dated version of Mario Paint Composer. Re-download it if you do.
Q: How do I get this version of Mario Paint? My one has a purple scroll bar and no Download/Upload Songs button.
A: This was an older version of Mario Paint Composer. The one you have is an updated version and I’d recommend sticking with it. The Download/Upload Songs button got taken down in V2 because it never worked.
Q: Did you just download this and put it up on Youtube or did you actually make it yourself?
A: I made it myself with the assistance of a MIDI. Unfortunatly, I cannot remember who made the MIDI. Also, if you’re wondering if I used the button on the top right of the screen, you’d be wrong.
Q: Why don’t you credit the person that made the MIDI? And where can I get the MIDI?
A: I’m not entirely sure of the name of the creator but you can download the MIDI of it here: http://www.midiplaza.com/songs/209 (That’s not where I downloaded it originally which is why I have my doubts that that is the original MIDI creator)
Q: How do you merge the save files together?
A: Well back in those days, I used Windows Movie Maker to edit them together. But nowadays, we have the arranger function which lets you play on save file straight after another. I’d only recommend video editing if it lags too much for you with the arranger.
Q: What did you use to record this?
A: Camstudio. There are plenty of tutorials on how to use it on Youtube. Download it here: http://www.camstudio.org/CamStudio20.exe
Q: How did you figure out the notes via MIDI?
A: I used a MIDI notation device.
Q: So you didn’t do this by ear?
A: …no sir, I didn’t… Though I wish I did.
Q: Would you be willing to re-create this with all of the latest methods (E.G. Dickspeed and soundfonts)?
A: No, I dislike Dragonforce.
Q: Could you do a song by *name of song by a band*.
A: If you’re asking me to do a song by an obscure band, chances are I won’t do it. I won’t do ANY metal music as it just doesn’t please my ears. I will not, under any circumstance, do rap music. Not because I don’t like it, but because the vocals have no solid melody to work around making it really strange to notate.
Q: Do you have a life?
A: As much of a life as a home-schooled 16 year old can have, I guess. :V
Q: Can I have the text files/.avi file so I can upload this onto my Youtube account?
A: No. Please don’t download this video and uploading it to your own account. One is enough, we don’t need more of the same video on Youtube.
Duration : 0:7:57
Time for a break from all the fancy, orchestrated, dickspeed crap I usually do.
This was another one of those random things that I suddenly decided to do.
My second MPC video ^.^
Made and Recorded by Me. Does anyone watching this actually know the song?
