Putting a "music" creator into their game would be the furthest thing from the goals of Harmonix, which would be to instill a love of music in the player and encourage them to play the real thing.jvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07085964867564420973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7344068351653946740.post-80652748233112107952008-07-16T06:53:00.000-07:002008-07-16T06:53:00.000-07:00@matt: I agree that the sound-palette question is ...@matt: I agree that the sound-palette question is a big if, especially if it comes to recreating music that is heavily produced. I think people will try though, so if it is even remotely possible to get something in the ballpark of the original we will see it. <BR/><BR/>@zorak: This is true, but I'm thinking that when you play the user-created tracks in the game the mic will still be on, so that you can do karaoke without words.Iroquois Pliskinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14324582950813408440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7344068351653946740.post-9747448111839531252008-07-16T04:47:00.000-07:002008-07-16T04:47:00.000-07:00I agree on the sound quality issue; that's especia...I agree on the sound quality issue; that's especially significant with a band like Zeppelin that has a complex sound. My major concern, though, is vocal tracks, which, last I heard, can't be created in GH: WT. That's the element that allows Rock Band's (very likely) superior soundtrack swing it in my view.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04824031856071704097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7344068351653946740.post-71815688393383474852008-07-14T09:26:00.000-07:002008-07-14T09:26:00.000-07:00"Supposing that you can eke out a respectable soun..."Supposing that you can eke out a respectable sound palette out of the music creator"<BR/><BR/>This is the point I'm highly skeptical about. Even if a user can create their own version of <EM>Stairway to Heaven</EM>, I suspect it will pale in comparison to the original's heavily layered and engineered sound. That is unless Neversoft provides the creators with some fairly sophisticated sound editing tools.<BR/><BR/>At best it will be like playing along to a Led Zeppelin ringtone.Matthew Gallanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01592343625367336913noreply@blogger.com
