When are the recordings due?

At least by the beginning of August.

Oh ok good. I want to wait until my allergies go away to do my recording.

Polls closed, people! We're going with the Full Version of the song, Any language you wish :DAnd recordings are now being accepted!

Okay, so by the full version, you mean the slow version that plays in the credits of Re:Chain Of Memories and Re:Coded, right?  And also, you want us to record ourselves singing the whole song, and then you take parts of our recorded videos and mix them up with other members?  I just want to have that clear in my head!

 

And I'm gonna be singing the song in English.

Basically. All members will be singing at the same time during the chorus, and I'll seperate parts for members to solo too.

Good lord, this is quite the exciting project you've got going on here!  You know, after you do this, you should send a link of the video to Square Enix, so Nomura and the gang can see the love we have for the series! :')

Edit:I'D SING THE SPANISH VERSION BUT IT'D BE A MESS TO MIX 3 LANGUAGES AT ONCE

Charm's version is awesome, confirming.

 

For those uninitiated:

 

 

 

 

 

Q: I can't sing. Can I still participate?A: Yes you can! Even if you can't sing, your voice will be included! If you wish not to sing, you may play an instrument in place.   

 

I actually played and recorded simple and clean on the piano before.

Wanna ask a question beforehand. By how do the members record? with only voice recording or the recording of videos about us singing that Song with our headphones on? Just wanna know how it works...

Same here, I tried recording with the microphone of my headphones once, and it didn't work out well

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I really want to be part of this!!

So I hope you'll approve if I join in on the vocals too ^_^

 

Just be aware that mixing a bunch of voices together will not be an easy job, it takes a lot of time and effort if you want it to sound good.

I had an extremely tough time mixing in the vocals for the KH13 Dismissed vocal project which I worked on with some KH13 members a while back.

 

Alternatively you could just get everyone on skype and do a mass rehearsal together

 

Cheers!

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, you can record however you like, I simply suggested listening to the song while recording so that the timing is perfect, but I'd rather not have the song playing in the background, you know?

Oh I approve! Because I really really like your voice

And I understand your hardships D: But I've gotten some help and I think it can be done. We can work on it together, if you'd like?

 

 

I actually played and recorded simple and clean on the piano before.

YES PLS

Computers are gonna crash

 

 Mine did when I was editing and mixing the vocals for Destati....but I think it happened because of Shimomura's cursed lyrics

Nuuu >////< My voice sucks, I wish I could sing better with vibrato and everything but I can't

I once had a vocal coach tell me I should aim to sing more Rock because of my straight tone, nonetheless I was not pleased lol

 

I think its wonderful that you have someone there to assist you! I'll do what I can but I'm time poor due to work and study at the same time.

I can't wait for the final thing!!!

 

Btw, for the instrumental - are we using Utada's original track?

 

OMG we should do Utada's other pieces too! >< 'First Love', 'Heart station', 'Prisoner of Love', 'Stay Gold', 'Sakura DROPs' (OMGG Sorry, going into fan boy mode, I love Utada more than anything)

I was thinking the same thing! I really want KH13 Sings to become a regular thing for special events, such as new game releases, anniversaries, etc.

And I was thinking about using an instrumental version of her track, but if we can find a fan made instrumental that is well enough, that'd be great too!

I also interest in this post, so... I'll join in, since I have requests from several friends to sing Kingdom Hearts songs, but I just wanna ask several questions :

 

1. I do have instrumental version of Kingdom Hearts songs (for example Hikari), and maybe other members have asked this and I miss it, is it okay if I use instrumental song for recording?

 

2. I usually post my music covers and recordings to my soundcloud and I always leave it public since If I put it to private, it only can be listened by myself. Besides, the song will be listened by my friends who request it as well, Is it okay if I use Souncloud and put it as public?

 

Thank you ~

Sure, that's no problem! (to both questions)

*Sudden realization*

I may not like my voice... at all, but I dare, no! I challenge sometime to try and stop me singing this!

 

...

 

Uh... question. What's a good way to record myself? I'm guessing Audacity. (I will be using my headphone's mic for my recording. I'll just have Simple and Clean very quiet. Hopefully. The herd part is when to record it. ;-

Audacity is a good way, indeed! If not, you can use your OS' default recording program. Anything is fine

*Has no idea if he has a default recording program. Will have to look it up*Huzzah!Now to explain why I'm singing, to other people.

Oh nice thanks~ I had better start practicing now.
