Hi all,
I have finished my game and i created some music-ish to listen in the main menu. I wish to add some sustain effect to it, like when one uses the piano’s usually rightest pedal to make the sound hold up longer.
Thanks in advance.
Depends on the sound. You might need to chop up your sample and make a few loops of a section. Other than that, compression with just the right settings lifts up the “tail” of the sound but does not add length to it.
Stretching on the other hand usually sounds very unnatural.
Reverb might help to create that sustained sound you are looking for but it might just balls up your entire sound. You could also try paulstretch. If used with care it can be quite effective but you will need to spend some time tweaking the parameters to get the most from it.
definatley have to agree with paul stretch as the way to go for sustain
