MMA Original Music Resources

Wow, this is incredible. I'm absolutely in love with Underwater... it's just so good!

Mind if I ask, what programs/tools/soundfonts do you use, and how exactly do you make your music - this is very professional-sounding, and I'm keen to have a go at making some music like this.

Thanks, I like to hear that some people are enjoying the music!  You should go listen to some of the other composers on here, their stuff is really good too!

Well believe it or not, all the stuff I use was absolutely free, except Cubase SE which is used for equalization and/or live recording(mainly guitar when I do use live recording).

Fruity Loops: For importing the MIDI files and applying soundfonts/VST to the tracks and adding effects

Anvil Studio/Finale: For composing the MIDI

Soundfonts/VST: I have a plethora of these that I found ALL over the net.  I couldn't pinpoint you to every place I got these from since a lot of them are just called "Flute" or "Piano" or whatever.  All I can say is download every one you can get since you never know if you might use it, even for just one song.

Really just google them and you can find them pretty fast.
