Sound Effects Help

Cliu Beothach · Post by **Cliu Beothach** » Sun Feb 19, 2006 5:01 pm

Well,

With a lack of supplies for certain sounds, it is very hard to generate or create the sounds needed. So, I need help from people willing to. If you have a mic (or not, sound editors are helpful too!) and ideas, post here or Private message me.

We need inventive ideas and imaginations. As I said, a microphone is not necessary, if you can contribute ideas and possibly editting, that will help to.

I think that a forest ambient sound woulb be nice for when wandering the forests such as in Tol Vanima. (If it was not for the whole copyright thing I would direct you to freeaudioclips.com to search for one) And also maybe some music for cities depending on each one such as for Trolllsbane some normal medieval music and for Tol Vanima some peaceful music etc. thats all my ideas for now

We don't take care of music, that is for another department. Only sound effects.

I am working on some ambient sounds such as birds and waves, but these may only be used for tools of GMs and such.

I'll keep my ears open in case i hear anything worth trying to capture on .wav's

Hmm a gong sound would be nice... if someone were to have a sheet of metal you could hit it and record it.

We have gongs ingame?

What would a gong sound be used for?

PS- And why use sheet metal when Rinya has a real one?

Well, we need a sound for the horn, instead of flooding the screen it would make an annoying sound. I have a micro but i dont know how to save sounds out of it

Just use the sound recorder program found on most computers, it might not let you edit but its a start.

Goto

or just go to the search and type sound recorder

What would be ideal for that is if someone of us owns an actual trumpet/other horn instrument. Then get someone like me, who has no trumpet experience, to try and play half a scale on it. That should work fine

.

As for other instruments, I have plenty of real instruments that I could record sounds for. My only problem is that I really have very little idea on how I could go about recording any of it. Tutorial? I'd be happy to try and make a few for instruments.

EDIT: Ah, right. That thing =3 .

Just let me fiddle around with it and figure out the best way to go about this...

I have a keyboard which can play most instrument sounds however I do not have a microphone any longer

how sad it is that when I have one thing I dont have the other.

You said you had a lack of supplies for certain sounds. Perhaps it would help if you included a list of sounds you were unable to create?

Hmm,

A lote of monster sounds. I have tried working on them and failed and will try again soon.

Large footsteps, growls, screams, macabre stuff like that.

I also want to make some ambient effects, and possibly more crafting effects. Such as more sound effects for smiths, mining, tailoring, and so on.

Due to reasons of size, sound effects should be less than 4 Seconds in length.

For ambience, midi music is better suited.

Cliu Beothach · Post by **Cliu Beothach** » Mon Feb 20, 2006 4:56 pm

Yes, all sounds must be in stereo as well, but equalized.

If anyone has trouble with this, I can fix it.

Zach Bora · Post by **Zach Bora** » Mon Feb 20, 2006 5:00 pm

I will try doing stuff tonight, but my micro sux and it might not do any good.

Cliu Beothach · Post by **Cliu Beothach** » Mon Feb 20, 2006 5:01 pm

No worry, I can try and spruce it up a bit.

Zach Bora · Post by **Zach Bora** » Tue Feb 21, 2006 12:12 am

what sound format, wav?

Retlak · Post by **Retlak** » Tue Feb 21, 2006 12:25 am

I have a nack for doing Predator noises..the film Predator i mean.
This can used say, in the forest?

And my friend is letting me punch him in the face if that can be used...

Cliu Beothach · Post by **Cliu Beothach** » Tue Feb 21, 2006 12:30 am

Yes wav.

Any sounds are helpful, they may not be used, but contributing a sound isn't bad.

Retlak · Post by **Retlak** » Tue Feb 21, 2006 12:31 am

Do you need a sound of someone being punched in the face? because.. well he will have to pay me back if its for nothing.

Cliu Beothach · Post by **Cliu Beothach** » Tue Feb 21, 2006 12:33 am

a bare fist hit may be needed.

Zach Bora · Post by **Zach Bora** » Tue Feb 21, 2006 12:39 am

I did some stuff... it's about 4mb, 2.1mb in rar... how do I send it to you?

Just tell me how it is, if it sux I won't try making more.

Cliu Beothach · Post by **Cliu Beothach** » Tue Feb 21, 2006 12:58 am

Some of them will be very helpful.
