Awesome work, but it seems like you did more work getting tab on screen than you did arranging the entire piece; only reason I say that is that I don't see you very often falling back on synths and such... and in this one, almost the entire track was synths. Nothing bad, mind you, but the bass sounded really bad and I thought the organ part would have been really cool if played by guitar. Would like to see a guitar/bass version in the future.

[CalebElijah]

Yeah, I would have played the parts just like I programmed the synths, I have the tabs for them, but I was trying this new format out, and felt like there would be alot of crap going on if I tried to put any of it in video. I could have played the parts, though, but the CPU does it so much faster and more accurately. It made the task manageable, rather than a huge ordeal.

[kkeelan]

I guess I can understand this as a test run - I suppose you don't necessarily have to show all the parts as once - this piece cycles quite quickly, so you could cycle it three times to show each part. Just some thoughts!

I'd still very much like to hear a version arranged sheerly for bass/guitar, in some shape or form.

[CalebElijah]

I agree. I think once I'm a little more comfortable and fast with this (maybe after the next vid or so), it will be time to do a 4 part piece that cycles through each tab part. Now what to do with my arrangements that use 9 guitars...

[kkeelan]

Some battles are just better off left not fought, sometimes... XD

In all honesty, though, you don't necessarily need to be showing you playing... you could just tab it with the video and lay the track over it. I mean, it won't be as nice as this video, but it would be practical for those who wanted to learn.

Oh, by the way, I was wondering if you knew - when recording, what's a good pre-delay for vocal reverb?

[CalebElijah]

Can't help you on the vocal reverb pre-delay. I don't know enough about actual recording. I've just kind of made it up as I go.....

You are probably the coolest person ever for making a video like this! Thank you

[PDohm123]

This is one of my favorite themes from FFIV!

@CalebElijah This song really doesn't fit on guitar. No offense to you, though.

[eyesofnova]

one of the best final fantasy songs. I hated fighting those damn things!

[richycline]

This song used to creep me out so bad as a kid. For a "16 bit" game Final Fantasy 4 really stirred up a lot of emotion. Well played dude.

[kulcheski]

Thats so very far off. If anyone wants to hear how it really goes look up waltz of the dolls by housethegrate.

he plays the scales perfectly and adds a bit of his own.

I don't know where you found this tab, but the person who wrote it clearly has no ear for music, or plays in the strangest tuning i've ever heard

[Burdu81]

WOW O_O

[CanisSkye]

that's interesting. Thanks for the vid share. Like how you edited it all up. X3

[mike0ike13]

is their any way u can this on acoustic if not can u send me the normal tab

[antagony69]

in my opinion, there is only a part that doesnt sound that right, i mean, i notice it because ive been hearing this song for a loooong time, and i think this guy is out of scale for a short time

[CBKProProto06]

AWSOME if everybody had the layout that you do on here it would be alot easyer to learn more music YOUR THE MAN thank you this vid was awsome please make more. total 5 big stars

[drcossackPA]

You just don't know how to do it.

You have to weaken the back row (but DON'T KILL THEM) - the dolls in the Front go down to just about any attack from Yang/Cecil/Kain.

After that, if you have access to the item duplication glitches (SNES/PSX versions), duplicate the Flame Sword and give it to Kain. Give Yang 2 Fire Claws, and after weakening all 3 dolls in the back (1000-1200 HP worth of damage should do it) in the back, kill two in the front, then IMMEDIATELY have Yang kick.
