TNT MIDI Pack - Now on idgames!

[continuum.mid]

This release means that the IWAD MIDI Packs are complete now! To celebrate I edited this together:

Which is also the first full YouTube upload of this MIDI pack, by the way :)

[Gez]

Nine hours and a half!

Yep! It is a lot of MIDI.

[Cammy]

So much quantity without sacrificing a drop of quality! This community's output is really something to behold.

 

I'm almost sad we're out of IWADs to make midi packs for, it feels like the end of an era... y'know, unless someone wants to bite the bullet and write a few thousand midis for Maximum Doom. I'd eat my hat.

If you count Freedoom, then there still aren't any original MIDIs in Phase 1 Episode 4. Will it get a MIDI pack stay tuned oh wait, I already soft announced a Double Impact MIDI Pack :)

Something could also be done for the Wraith megawads, but then for the "only replace the repeated tracks" versions you'd have to look at the tracks the originals share and decide which gets to stay in which.

 

While I'm at it, has anyone suggested Aliens TC or Hell Revealed yet? The latter would be especially deserving of a contribution by Lee Jackson.

If we’re doing “90s commercial wads,” the Lost Episodes don’t have any original music. Touching the Wraith soundtracks seems almost heretical to me though since they’re borderline perfect already haha.

 

Most of the levels of the second half of Lost Episodes is straight garbage, of course, but Hell to Pay has a lot of questionable quality maps, too.

I'd be interested in a MIDI pack for Alien Vendetta. Even though I have next to zero interest in being a lead for any project, if I were it would be for that.

I could see the Lost Episode get something in the vein of Peter's Master Level MIDI Pack. Y'know, wacky tunes for a whack mappack.

With the release of this pack, I've uploaded renders of my track "Impending End" to SoundCloud.

 

Original Microsoft GS version:

Roland SCVA-55 version in SC-55 mode:

Click through to the SoundCloud pages for each song for composer's commentary!

 

[JDoyle]

Here's my SC-55 playlist. If anyone does not want their music included in this playlist, please let me know here or by PM and I'll be happy to remove the video in question.

obviously Maximum Doom shouldn't be considered, but next up can always be official maps (you already did Sewers), official addons without a custom soundtrack, and quasi-official stuff like Lost Episodes, Perditions Gate, Hell to Pay and the Heretic H!Zone episodes.

[Devalaous]

The new Map 07 midi is wonderful stuff. Worth the wait for.

I have decided to make another recording of this MIDI pack. This time with the interesting ColomboGMGS2 SondFont:

Definitely! Replacement track was great, but I was looking forward alot of SoCh remix. When I saw it was remade by Myrgharok, who composed my favourite track in Ultimate Doom midi pack (it was for E2M2, I can't remember its name), I was hyped and my hype was only confirmed, it's amazing remaster!

[Cammy]

Folks, we've made it to idgames - guess that means we're official now!

 

Here's the link to download the TNT MIDI Pack from the archive!

 

It's a joy to see everyone enjoying the music so much. I'm very proud of the work we all put into this, and it's gratifying to see that it's been so well-received. Thank you all.

[wallabra]

Woooooooooo! Congrats Cammy, I'm very happy for you :D

[Rudolph]

Currently playing through TNT Evilution with the MIDI pack. I still have mixed feelings about the mapset, but the soundtrack makes it worth it nonetheless!

[Lippeth]

Congrats on the release! A lot of great music has now been etched in stone, and it was great to revisit tnt.wad in general, it's been years since I last played it!

[GarrettChan]

Congrats on the release. I did replay the whole TNT with the midi pack, and I had a blast. Thanks everybody for making this pack.

I got a suggestion for you: why not give Doom Zero an original soundtrack? Currently, it only features vanilla tracks and a handful of remixes. Also, it was featured on the Slayers Club, so it has more visibility than other megawads.

Hey there, everyone! Last night I finally got the chance to get the full recorded soundtrack uploaded to a new YouTube channel of mine. Each MIDI has its own video so you can add individual favorites to your own personal playlists, and they're recorded with Microsoft Wavetable - the standard MIDI device many modern systems use, and the one for which many of these tracks were written and optimized.

 

Enjoy!

 

I might upload other Doom wad OSTs to this channel in the future if people like this formula. Let me know what you think!

[Rudolph]

@Cammy Sweet! Looking forward to your next project!

Is MAP13's "Hey There, Moonbeam" inspired by The Adventures of Tintin's theme song, by any chance? :o

Nope - Hey There, Moonbeam is actually an extended improvement to a non-MIDI track I wrote like 5 or 6 years ago, which sat on my hard drive gathering dust that entire time before I realized it would slot nicely into Nukage Processing. Since it was so old (and, at the time, short) I had no idea how to rework it so I sent it over to Lippeth and he supplied some much-needed help.

 

If I remember correctly (and listening to it now, I'm quite confident I do), it was originally inspired by Decapre's theme from Ultra Street Fighter 4. It was more obvious in the older, non-MIDI build of the song, but the inspiration is still pretty clear in a few places.

I’m in love with this midi pack! Everyone who worked on it did a fantastic job! It really improved a lot of the maps. 

[june gloom]

If you're looking for a version that only replaces the duplicate tracks (including Bobby Prince's Doom II holdovers) I've gone ahead and put one together.

What a monumental amount of work. Congrats to all involved.
