early 2000's synth sounds ? didn't know there was a cliché for that .

Space Pad , Lead synth , Dn e1 , Cinematic synth , Cinematic Soundscape synth

music maker comes with ( Lead synth , Cinematic synth , and Cinematic Soundscape synth )

in music maker's in-app store , you can listen to some sample audio of the synthesizers .

I will post back , with more info , as I find out more .

your C&C psycho song ,.... "Space Pad" for the flowing synth sounds , or possibly use String Ensemble to make flowing synth sounds .

I also am hearing that Cinematic synth and Cinematic Soundscape should do some things that you want .

the only remaining synth to consider is Dn e1 .

for guitar , try some Vita 2 Power chords( comes with music maker ) , or buy "Power Chords" synth

 

for now I would say :

use Cinematic synth , use Lead synth , use Cinematic Soundscape synth , and buy Space Pad ( listen to the sample sounds of Space Pad in music maker's Store . )

(Note: take the informations down below with a grain of salt. they are from what i coud understand and personal experiance.)

Well, i don't know if you are being sarcastic or your legitimately surprised , but either way, no, the examples do not necessarily fall under a curtain genre or cliche. maybe a style would be more accurate. This type of music was common in cheap or low budget computer games in the early 2000's, where there few good video games on the market.

The most notable features in those songs are the high pitch, sharpe synth sounds, sloppy transfer in notes and mediocre over all sound. However, that doesn't mean that all video game music where like that as composers quickly tried to add more instruments to there arsenal, quickly redirecting them to the now very common orcestral type music (but that doesn't mean some stayed with the style and improve upon it). It's safe to say that this type of music didn't last for too long. but i still personally like it for the same reason as vaporwave.

As for your suggestions, i did make a rough list of instruments i want to buy to try to replicate the style and i have to admit that never thought about the cinematic stuff. And THAT is why i asked. Thank you so much, that was really helpful.

Hi

Like fan-boy I too was puzzled by the comment 'early 2000's synth sounds' .

. . . . the examples do not nessecerliy full under a curtien genre or cliche . . . .

AFAIK there is no such 'genre', if you are looking for a one-stop solution, then, AFAIK, one does not exist that can generate the genre style for you.

You will have to create the music/sound effects in the style of the 'genre' using the instruments suggested by fan-boy, however, IMHO, these may not give the true rough sound you are looking for because the instruments are much more polished than old synthesizers.

For the authentic old style synthesizers look for the following VST's

DSK Ethereal Padz, DSK Synthopia 2, DSK TechSynth, OB-Xd, TAL-NoiseMaker and Tyrell N6.

The last 3 in particular, are capable of creating the rough sound you need just like the real synthesizers.

Space Pad , before String Ensemble . Space Pad can be made to sound somewhat like strings , however Space Pad can be tuned to Sounds that String Ensemble just can't do .

for more grind on the jam , Analogue synth might do it . I thought Analogue synth would be more smooth . No , Analogue synth is more grindy tonality . ( that's what I heared from the in-app sound sample )

"Space Pad" for the flowing string\synth parts , "Analogue synth" to give it a more riveting sound .

i bought cinematic synths but it is gone!!!!!
