Where do you get the MMX instruments for FL Studios?
Here's a zip of the instruments im using. It's a combination of sound fonts and individual .wav samples from MMX.

Soundfonts are just a collection of samples.(Easier to manage). I put the SNES soundfont and MMX soundfonts inside which should have pretty much every instrument used for the sNES.
You'll probably be using these alot:
-Overdriven Guitar (From Snes soundfont)
-Synth Bass 2 (From Snes soundfont)
And for mixing options just
-Fruity Parametric EQ 2
-Fruity Reeverb (Lowcut 191Hz, Decay 0.5 sec.)
(These just make the sample not sound so dry)
If you have not composed music before (like me), then it's probably a good idea to use an midi song as a reference, then mix & mash parts with each other using MMX instruments until things sound good. For example, you may like the bass line from a particular midi, so you just copy it, make adjustments, and replace with MMX instruments. You don't have to do the entire midi like this, just parts you like. Maybe there's a guitar riff you like from another midi that'll sound good in combination with the bass line, or you can just alter it to sound better. You definitely don't have to do everything from scratch, atleast until you feel more comfortable working with music.
Very catchy tune. Reminds me of Kirby, sort of. But nice job with it anyway. Can't wait to hear more
Yeah I figured it sounded a bit happy. I'll probably do more with the overdrive guitar once I figure out how to make it sound nice.
Yeah, it does sound more classic. Really good though.
thanks, it looks like i'll be spending some time in fruity loops to make music then.
