trying to fit 2 beats on one X coord. timing isn't right yet but i got a nice swing beat #SuperMarioMaker2 #NintendoSwitch
@monorail couldn't you take advantage of how cyclic music is and use bits that repeat?
@Felthry in theory, yes. the two problems are that playing music in mario maker is finnicky and it's hard to reuse stuff like that (though definitely possible). the other problem is that i'm making a level based on mm2wood, the worst, least in-time hand-arranged midi file of all time, so i need the timing to be weird and bad, which means less cycles
@monorail that feels like it's probably an XG midi being played by a GM synth
@Felthry i've never heard of either of those things so i couldn't tell you, unfortunately :P
i have heard that it was hand-arranged but it's possible that that was just an assumption on that person's part
here's the .mid file if you're interested
@monorail I only know of them because of @azushark occasionally talking about stuff
GM is general midi, the actual standard--XG is a bunch of additional stuff that some things use that makes for really impressive music but with the drawback of being... Very Bad when just fed into a midi player that expects pure standard general midi
@Felthry @monorail mm2wood.mid is just a severely broken midi
the track name metadata suggests that some instruments should be set differently than they are, at least
