"Why spend time making music when you can fight with studio gear?" Song written by RTHR and songs performed by RTHR. | |
| "Erana's Peace (Take That You Quadra Mix).mp3" | Erana's Peace from Quest for Glory I (Hero's Quest I) | |
This was recorded in Spring of '97 as homework for my MUSI 3500 class (Intro To Synthesized Computer Music). This was sequenced out with MOTU Digital Performer and a Kurzweil PC-88-MX. I had always wanted to do a good version of this song so I did. The proper name for this song is "The Magic Meadow" and it is from the Sierra game Hero's Quest I: So You Wanna Be A Hero? (a.k.a. Quest for Glory I: So You Wanna Be A Hero?). I was REALLY happy with the extra harmony during the repeat of the B section. One problem though. I didn't get a recording of this until the very end of the class. It was done using SoundEdit 16 on an old nasty Mac Quadra. Unfortunately, when I recorded it, I just played back the beginning to check the recording level, lack of distortion, etc. I didn't realize until later that there were a few large skips in the file. And I didn't have an opportunity to record it again. In June of '99, I finally got around to fixing up the song with Cool Edit so it didn't skip (using the fact that it repeats to my advantage).
I guess this song is finally finished.
