[MIDI] Mii-tan no Mahou de Pon!! (Popotan) [SC-88Pro]
50I finally finished this MIDI for the Roland SC-88Pro synth. This is Mii's theme from the H-game "Popotan", originally by UNDER17. Making a musical synth say "Iyaan!" was fun, amusing and surreal.
I decided to do away with the "loli voice" effect that I used in the incomplete version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsQjKQw_nPs), because the effect broke whenever there was a strong pitch-bend.
The 3D visualisation is MIDITrail, scrolling text is BaWaMI's MIDI message view (my MIDI player's interpretation of them), and in the top-right is the Sound Canvas synth's LCD itself.
Production time took about 4 days, including time I couldn't do anything because I was at work or dead from this cold that I have. This is, without a doubt, the new most-complicated MIDI I've ever made, with many SysEx messages throughout changing the routing to the Insert FX and its parameters, along with tons of control changes, some instrument changes (16 just isn't enough), a user-defined drumkit, 3 percussion channels, and a healthy dose of pitch-bends (with varying sensitivity). My "Suwa Foughten Field" MIDI remake had some of these, but I think this sounds better, and certainly posed more challenges.
