It's about 2 Mb and 2'10"

I like what I did and I'm still toying with my new sample library, so I'm not pretty sure about the sounds I used, but I like them.

This is a tention theme. Like something bad is going to happen, like something is lurking next to you and you don't know it.

My major concern is that there is a lot of bass instruments. I'm afraid that in some speakers it's going to destort... I did the mixing and mastering in my headphones, but these are proffessional headphones, and have no idea how the music will sound on some cruppy computer speakers. I would very much appreciate it if you  could play it in your computer and tell me how it sounds.

And of course and criticism and any suggestions are welcome, since everything is midi and I can change it...

By the way, I actually like it very much! I think I did a good job here, but of course I'm not sure I can judge for myself, so SHOT!

Wow really nico Niko, I had no problems with any distortion, though you might want to use a higher bitrate if possible, to get those extra low tones to blast out of my subwoofer.
The set up is a bit strange though, first you're feeling the suspense then it goes quiet and goes back to the suspense, a bit strange for one thing to happen, though if more than one thing happen than it would be perfect.
The set up was the only thing that bothered (not really bothered but noticed) me, so I think you did a really nice job and you certainly can be proud of your work!

Which sample library is it?

Which sample library is it?

It's the Eastwest Quantum Leap Gold Edition.
I didn't use anything else. Even the reverb is straight from its own sampler (Kontakt).
The only thing missing are a couple of techniques from the strings and it doesn't have any piano! If you need more information PM me.

Mozesh: I will have to check with the guy I'm making the music for, cause it woulod be a shame to have a game that's eg. 15 Mb and the music being 45 Mb. I don't know I find that 128 Kb is a pretty good compromise. But again I will check if I can make it better. Thank you. And I feel that a break (the quiet part), creates an even better tention for the last part. Again Thank you

Ah, I had a feeling it was something like that. Good job! Does it come with it's own player, or do you have to have Kontakt to use it?

No, no it comes with Kontakt. That's what's good with it. You don't need any reverb or echo, cause they're already there as well as you don't need any sampler, cause it's got Kontakt. And when you get the money you can upgrade to the Platinum Edition.

I think that they have a sale of 50% on Eastwest until Dec 31st. So you can find it at 500$

And if you're a student you can get 50% off Waves!

My God and I don't take any money from EastWest! Maybe I should!

Thanx
