Title: Postal Service MIDI
Post by: mizaktik on 07 Jul 2005, 01:07

Hey does anyone have any Postal Service MIDIs?  I've been trying to find "Such Great Heights" but I have had exactly no luck.  So.. yeah, if anyone knows where to get it I'd really appriciate it.

Check Epitonic for free MP3s or you could just buy the album.

MIDIs and mp3s are diffrent.

Can you say 'understatement'?

On to the actual question, I have no fucking clue where you'd get MIDI's from. I suggest google, but that's about as useful as 'download some mp3s'.

Get some tabs and make your own you lazy bum.

Haha.. that would seriously take months, at least if you did it right.  What the hell do you want these MIDIs for, cell phone ringers?

Months?

How complex are their songs? I midi'd out 'Deathcrush' in about three quarters of an hour, and that's about as simple as a song can get, so it's only gonna be multiples of that.

Biggest problem with the tabs woudl be the fact that I have yet to find a MIDI sequencer that didn't explode when I tried to use it.  Have any suggestions, Khar?

as to Kanno, yeah my goal was cell phone ring.  

And in general, I was only asking if anyone had any kicking around or something.  I've been googling it and finding various cicular links and pay to get these cell phone rings, etc etc.  So yeah, it hasn't been too succesful


EDIT: I forgot to finish my post...

As always, I'm gonna recommend...fruityloops! Keep wavs and samples out and it works rather damn well as a MIDI sequencer, even if that's not its main purpose. Also, I find the piano roll function great for getting everything 'just so'.

Well, I suppose I was being a bit dramatic with the "months" estimate.  I still think it would take a long time, however.  Some of those postal service songs are pretty complex, with many different instruments.

It would take me months, but that's just because MIDI scares the hell outta me.  You crazy kids and your synth tracks...

The O.P.'s last post was in 2006, dude. Even if he/she wanted to take you up on your offer I don't think he/she is here any more.
