Why do my songs sound so different from 3MLE
malokyte replied to Fearless's topic in Composers Lounge [Archived]
That is correct. To the original post, if you're testing it in 3MLE after simplifying the tracks and it still sounds right in there, and you're manually c/p the mml into the game, then you might be accidentally transferring part of the track. I've accidentally clipped the beginning of the track doing it manually, and that would make it sound wrong, so you might want to double check that you've selected the entire track when you c/p it over. -
Not an expert in MML, still learning myself, but I'm confident with some answers. First // and /* */ indicate comments, and are essentially ignored when read. For example, writing // this is a comment would exclude // and everything in the line after it from being "read" by 3MLE. /* and */ make everything between them excluded from being read. For example: /* ignore everything here */ Both can be safely removed, and I believe are removed automatically if you select "Optimize Track" in the 3MLE menu. For the first track excerpt you posted, I believe it's indicating that the entire track is dedicated to playing one note. This is likely a composition thing, as this track is probably intended to play that note with a specific instrument. Typically, you want to keep the note, but you can mute the track and listen to the section it plays in to see if it affects how the piece sounds. If it doesn't, you can probably safely delete the track. Otherwise, you might consider finding a track that's resting at that point and inserting the note there (assuming a solo piece). I'm not sure what y, ., or , stand for, but v should always be followed by a number, and it indicates the volume of the track from that point onward. v8 is volume setting 8, v9 is volume setting 9, etc. You typically want the volume to be lower for louder instruments (horns typically) and higher pitches, as high volume with loud instruments is painful to listen to, same with high volume with high pitch. Unfortunately, I'm not sure with the other questions, so I won't risk giving a wrong answer.
