Hello, Even thought this is my first topic, I've been on the forums for a while.

Introductions aside...

How would you make and mix cheesy elevator music...?
I keep hearing you need a Hammond B3 Organ and/or GM Midi,

Also, how would you mix it so it sounds like it is coming from cheep elevator speakers?

Thanks in advance.

Yeah, find a small, cheap-sounding GM soundfont (such as https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic ... y1G-s5nRQI). Then with a plugin like MDA combo set to "radio" mode, it can sound like it's coming from a cheap speaker.

Hey Glitch Doctor

I just threw together a video for you demonstrating one way of creating the illusion of music coming from a background source aka elevator or radio

If you have any questions, let me know

Great first-post topic, Glitch Doctor! :clap:

Legato trombone and/or overwrought soprano saxophone melodies are a mainstay in the most memorably forgettable elevator music I've heard.
