SuperGoodSound's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[DnB Glitch Loop]

great work here

Wonderful quality stuff. Would be especially nice as a full song. All the individual elements were represented quite cleanly and audibly without being overbearing in the mix.

DomesticTerrorist responds:

Thanks for the review! I've been working on my DnB skills lately... hopefully I'll have a full DnB song sometime soon.

[Rose At Nightfall]

this should have been #1

beat out by something with not half the inspiration poured into it...

this is good stuff, I would really like to hear this in a game of smash bros. or something...that would rad!

NemesisTheory responds:

but that song easily had ten times the effort and production time compared to this one :)

and... maybe you will, in one form or another... ;)

[Pokemon Sinnoh Pokerap (FULL)]

well...

the only thing that you really did here is "rap" over a song that you didn't make. Granted, it was clever in a sense - but it ends there in terms of originality. The least you could of done would have been to add some of your own parts and fx into the song to give it some variation.

I'm not sure about #1 spot either. I suppose not everything can be "Ultimate Showdown" quality, but they should at least keep me satisfied. A good effort for what it is nonetheless.

sonicmega responds:

It's true, I could have made an original song to go with this, but my audio skills are so horrible I fear it would have HURT this submission more than what I ended up using.

As for the #1 spot, that was not my decision, but the decision of the people who saw it and voted on it before the Weekly 5 and Top 50 were announced, so please don't hold that against me.

In any case, it seems you found SOME things right with it, so thanks for sharing with me!

[Long Walk Home]

ah... now the usual suspects up here.

Let me know when the movie comes out - sounds beautiful here. I'll buy a copy. I'm always ready to support such incredible amounts of effort that I in a way feel tied to through newgrounds. What it this software per say? Have you made some new purchases? It sounds amazing already.

Really nicely done.

kelwynshade responds:

I'll definitely have a huge posting when the movie comes out, that's for sure. I'm impressed to be honest that the rough draft had this effect on the Newgrounds Community to be honest.

VST's are honestly my new "software". I've aquired some really good ones. VST's are actually a new thing to me as I used to use onlu Soundfonts. ANYWAY, thanks for the review as always.

[Journey Through Time (INC)]

cool stuff

very well done. the mood and emotion is fantastic.

Some slightly better sampled instruments would do this huge justice. The chords used really worked beautifully.

djstormx responds:

Thanks. I've been trying to get Garritan Personal Orchestra for Reason 3, but it's too expensive right now. I've been working off of the Orkester CD that came with Reason and the strings that come with the Miroslav Choirs. BTW....your song "A Time to Heal" is absolutely FANTASTIC. What samples do you use? If any?

[.:The_7h_day:.]

good sounding piece here...

Drums a little low in the mix but still discernible. Liked it more as it went along. Had this really nicely crafted groove to it actually. sweet!

xenith800 responds:

I don't see (or better said "hear") how the drums can be low. maybe the hats, but with them set higher it wouldn't give the same atmosphere.

[.:=Phoenix Chronicles - Ep4=:.]

why are headphones not reccomended?

It sounds fine. Headphones aren't meant to sound any "different". The quality is always going to be more important than simply headphones vs. speakers. Anyway. A great piece which keeps a level of energy flowing throughout that helps sustain all the parts (it's kinda synergistic I guess). Some sounds are a little higher quality sounding than other. The choir voices were well done. It brings in nice touches at parts with the strings. Very video-game oriented.

Draqo responds:

Yes I love strings and it's synthed choirs cousin. The series is indeed merging into the early 90's video game feel as with Episode 5 will be. Stay tuned.

Thanks for the review. :D

[Reasoner- Champions Green]

this rocks.

Dang. It's incredible. I can feel the emotion being presented here. I've got to download this one. It's absolutely top-notch. geez. so good.

Reasoner responds:

Awesome,,thanks for downloading it!

[Reasoner- Where Do We Turn]

10 for the recording quality especially...

Phenomenal recording quality! What are using to mic this thing? It sounds really full and oozing with character. Sounds like some slight compression on there as well. Very nice. Quite enjoyable. Wish I could get my Kawai upright to sound like this. I guess I should post some of my piano songs. They don't sound quite as good (I had some crappy sm58 ripoff mics...) though. I suppose I could eq em to death though!

5/5

Reasoner responds:

I would love to lie right now and say that I used AKG C414's on the front with ribbon mics underneath in a studio hall hooked up to some killer preamps. But I'm afraid it's a multisampled piano patch from the Reason Refill Pack. I know.....I feel ashamed...lol. I couldn't fit a baby grand in my apartment ;-). Thanks for the review though.....your stuff is awesome as well.

[Desert Clash (DEMO)]

very realistic...

oh my. I thought sound was coming from my speakers when really it was just from my headphones. That's how I know something sounds right. It always fools me into thinking it's coming from somewhere else and not the actual source. Well done! You're likely using an expensive library or something.

Geigamg responds:

Haha well in all hopes it will sound as epic as I want it too when i am through with it, but before that i have to make a D&B track ^_^.
Thanks for the review, i am fond of it.
