This will probably turn out bad, but . . . Music Shapes!

I think we could all have a fun relaxed time if we drew shapes on the piano roll, posted here, and had everyone else try to guess what shape the song was based on how it sounds. The author should take a screenshot for when they tell what it was so we know they aren't lying c: Thoughts?

inb4 I-Pie draws a penis based song

On a serious note, it would usually turn out as either clusterfuck of notes, or something very easy to recreate on piano roll

I'm going to write a Fluttershy ASCII art song using 4 instruments (plus the silent base). I remember doing it months ago, but I was too lazy to finish it. Luckily, I still have the drawing (which I made for that one purpose)

I'm going to share it as a zip file just because you won't see Fluttershy until you see the original image.

there's actually some software where it will design a midi or sound around whatever image you import. FYI



of course i looked into a few of these, tried a few experiments, and all it really did was produce crappy music :)

See, you start a stupid thread for poorly-made music, and then you learn how to hide your face in music. Is there ANY thread on My Little Remix that DOESN'T teach you something interesting?

It sprung up when Bartekko and I were on facebook talking about how I-Forgot-Who drew his own bass kick in audacity. Although, I remember you DID bring this up.
