How I Did It
Tools I Used
Magix Audio Studio 10
Slicer, by ixi-software.net
byrd-xandar effect plug-in
Anvil Studio
Samples I Used
I used the listed mixter sample, as well as the following samples of my own:
Bob Nose Flute Sample and
three pieces from my www.disfish.com recordings:
"Longing for Purity"
"Winter Prairie Meditation" and
"We Wish You".
Process
I placed the MIDI sample by Bruno Dilly in Anvil Studio, which is freeware available at www.anvilstudio.com.
I then switched all the MIDI instruments to various strings, and slowed the tempo dramatically. Then I used the Slicer sampler to morph the sample. Then I added the various pieces of my own for sonic effect.
Other Notes
I wanted to create a kind of memorial in progress, to capture the sadness, but with a tone that recognizes the hopes as yet unfulfilled.
