0:00 "Optimised for headphones."
"okay." *puts on headphones*
0:02 "FUCK YEAH IT IS!"
Holy shit, no joke. Switched from ear buds to actual headphones and the sound almost knocked me over lol
I feel the same thing, awesome!!!
Downloaded !!
Converted !!
Cutted and looped !!
Replaced in the Music-ogg folder !!
Amazing work !!!
It's so hard to improve on Uematsu's original anything but this is a gorgeous rendition.
+Barney Warney it's improvable, because FF7 was a Playstation title, and the Playstation had a limited sound chip, which constrained the choices in terms of instruments and tone. I'm curious about the musics in the upcoming remake.
+Giulio Franco That's if the game uses sequenced music; the PS1 was fully capable of using streamed sound. The only limitation was probably the size, but that's because of the CDs, not because of the console.
Giulio Franco Even then though I often prefer the originals. There's alot of hyperbole gets thrown around but I think you can hear Uematsu's genius, just feels you change one thing in the whole and it's just not quite as good.
That said I have loads of Bitsymphony's work because it is wonderful to have it fully rendered with proper instruments and production.
And he's back folks.
Tifa and Cloud's summoning animation is the best IMO. Everytime i hear this i remember them. So magical.
One thousand versions here on youtube but this one... just the f****** best!!!
That violin build up!!! Omfg... it’s epic.
This is probably the best remaster of FF7's "Fighting" I've heard. Others like to shy away from some of the high notes or mess with the balance, and this one did everything "right." The only thing I miss is the percussive sound during the climbing scale section (some folks say it's an "aah", but it always sounded like a hammer on iron to me, though the sound's easily replicable by clapping two wood blocks together). It's a silly little thing, but that hint of "industry" during the first fight scenes in the Mako Reactor just really bound everything together, atmospherically.
Cloud.
In.
Smash.
+NegikunTV Make me.

Super Nova can't bust concrete pillars.
+executableapplet life cant heal sore butts
***** you did nothing, though you did open a chance to have a good laugh at what inventive ideas people create, so you did good
Meteor can't break buster swords
Gotta say I love the orchestrated feel for it. It also doesn't lose the intensity either, with can be hard when doing pieces like this. Job well done. Sharing it for sure!
+BluArc Thank you! :)
This HAS to be in the remake!
I've had all of yours on my own playlist since you made the old ones, and listened to them all at least 3 times a week. Now you have done this, I need to make a whole new one!
+N Jani Could you do Auron's theme by the way from FFX? If you are taking requests. That and FFVI Dancing Mad are the only two I have wished for you to have done 3 years ago, as I know you will do them well!
Sounds so majestic and yet simmilar to the original.
it's great to hear that and great to see you again
I'm sold
It's great, I just always this catchy submarine synth brass from the original soundtrack.
Are we on a spree here?
I thought: "Oh well, another remake! That's nice to see... Fighting? FIGHTING? Hell yeah!"
And honestly, I made something to eat, ate it here at my desk while I started up this video (with headphones on of course) and once it reached 55 seconds my eyes opened wide and I had goosebumps over both arms at which point I cranked my headset up to full volume. Hell yeah, that is genuinely a well made remake. It's aggressive, it's loud, it's dominant, like the original. Just like a "Fighting"-theme should be. Very well done, sir!
And on another note: If I ever get to play Final Fantasy 7 on Steam, your remakes will very well be incorporated in replacing the Midi music!
I love your work. Please never stop doing this. :)
I might have to queue this up for battles while I'm replaying FFVII on my PC. Can't wait for the remake!! Awesome job!!
I knew eventually there'd be someone out there with the skills to take the old FFVII midi tracks and update them to sound closer to real instruments! Hallelujahhhhhh! Thanks dude! Justice at last!!!
Really feels like it needs the industrial/foundry sounds in the background of the original.
The official remake version actually sounds a lot like this!
Yea, but here they kept the whistle part!
This is intense as heck. Nice work!!
Goosebumps!!!
holyshit its crazy how similar this is to the remake version
Yeah right?! Impressive
Those who fight!!!
It's Cloud Time.
Amazing!
Damn it's good to have you back.
i want to fighting emerald and ruby again after hearing this wonderful remake ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Wow.
J'en ai les larmes aux yeux tellement c'est magnifique. Très beau travail. Félicitations
If the final product is anything similar to how you handled the music it wil be the best soundtrack ever! Can't wait for the remake and the official version of this song (let's hope it's as good as this!)
Incredible! Those woodwinds are on point! :D
Very good, nicely done, love this music!
I wish they'd consider you making the soundtrack for the remake!
Fantastisch.
So cool!
Awesome !
Finally, you're come back !
Excellent!
Love it.
I don't know if this is an audio illusion but I like how you kept the "breathing" sound throughout the theme.
damnm now thats some crispy quality!!!
Sqaure Enix goes to Bitsymohony and tries to force him to give his music. He refuses and then fights with his version of this song comes on :)
amazing dude tks for this.
Excelent as always!
BEST!!!!!!!
this....is....AWESOME!!!!
+Black Flame Productions thank you!! :)
+BitSymphony Nope, Opening - Bombing Mission must ABSOLUTELY be the next, please!
+Bladewolf Darknight I agree! =)
You're damn right.
I totally agree
Great work!!! :D
Great Work :)
ohhhhh shhhhhhhhhiiiii............
awesome :) just missing the submarine sonar sound hehe
+Folian87 i totally overlooked that! I thought to myself, well, i'm probably not going to able to replicate the sound exactly as the original so i guess its better to let it out than to ruin the song with a cheap sound effect, i'll work on that later. And in the end i didn't miss it :)
hehe it is still well made though :)
@00:46 good job, BitSymphony.
Optimized for headphones? Are you using binaural phases to expand the sound? They sound great, but I don't think it's a good idea to use them like this. You get a soundtrack which can only be listened to with headphones, otherwise you get weird sound vacuums. Plus, even with headphones, I'm getting weird volume changes, possibly because youtube reduces the stereo differences for a more efficient encoding. Other than that, I think it's awesome.
+Giulio Franco All the songs are optimized for headphones, it's just a disclaimer/reminder of how people should hear tem in order to fully enjoy the songs. Nowadays its very common for people to listen to music on laptop speakers, smartphone and tablet speakers, and all of them are terrible if you don't own a nice set of headphones. Yes, youtube does encode the sound and video even further, it's a bit of a loss of quality. Thank you!
+BitSymphony Is this being used for the actual remake?
+ThatOneEpicGuy I wish! :)
+BitSymphony They could do a lot worse than to use your remasters. I think the way you capture the authenticity of the track in your work while improving everything in the sound quality in astounding!
Or they could do a lot better by making it as close to the original as possible like i did, but do it with a real live orchestra.
It's Amazing *-*
I can not listen to this! *-*
I Love Final Fantasy *-*
In other Final Fantasy games this could've easily been the boss music. xD
Holy shit this is epic as fuck!
Bring on Still More Fighting V3! :D
Hey this sounds awesome, do you happen to have a looping .OGG file I can place in my FF7 PC?
Great to have you back BitSymphony :) Are any FF8 soundtrack remakes on the way??
SQUARE, HIRE THIS MAN
Can you remake Mods de Chocobo?
This is fantastic, but there's no heavy clank noise that plays during the build up parts of the song.
Great choice of instruments and the mastering is great alltogether, too! The only thing that I noticed is that either the compressor sometimes does weird things and leaves too much of the transierent or you used a transient shaper in a very harsh way...? :D
This sounds great but I don't know what to think of the "optimized for headphones" bit. It does sound better on my headphones but I'd like to be able to blare it on my fairly nice stereo speakers as well
Will you be adding the rest of FF VII Remakes to the Vibedeck album?
+Deses All the new ones will go to the "FFVII Revisited" album, all od the older remakes are already available in vibedeck, scroll down the page to see all the albums.
Just out of curiosity, what program do you use to make these?
+Xenko Vence Cubase Elements 7 and lots of VSt instruments
Where is the ANVIL Hammer??? you left out the anvil hammer sound.... it's my most favorite part of the song, seriously` it's actually a very important piece to this track!
I know it's not in the game, but maybe CLOUD SMILES??? :) :) :)
I think its a bit too "stiff?" idk maybe how to put it but other than that its awesome
Great, but the official title is "Let the Battles Begin"/"Those Who Fight", not "Fighting". Amazing piece!
What did you use to make this?
+Raymond Martinez Cubase, lots of VSTs
Thanks! didnt think i'd get a reply.
How can you be releasing this stuff so fast??
+Taislinmaosdela Been working on some of the songs in parallel in the last month, and the past two weeks have been more intense, to finish one at a time, just finished this one today. I am working on another one now. A little bit of time here and there makes it possible for me to devote myself to this project :)
first!
It is good, but i still like more the other version you made earlier.
A bit too much volume droppings and then rises again. Makes it a bit annoying to listen.
Would be very appreciated if you mentioned that you rip off the midi and only change the midi with very very slight loops and modifications! Pay some respect for the original midi editors
+Henric Emdenborg I've heard that type of comment before. What proof do you have of such claim? Now that you mention, please provide the midi you are talking about, i would gladly compare it to my song project. I'm sure there will be a lot of similarities (not to mention that everything should be almost the same, note by note), because... it's the same song!
Working with midi's is a hassle, you get a lot of waste like badly quantized notes, unconsistent note velocities and lengths, unwanted expression commands, errors, wrong notes on wrong instruments and other issues that are truly a mess. They were made to be used with some synths, not sample based VST's. And to clean it up and make it suitable for proper use with different VST's takes so much time and so much effort that it's better to start clean and from scratch.
I work with the original song on the background, i set the right tempo on the project until it is almost perfectly synchronized, i choose an instrument and open a VST i find the most suitable to it, than i work roughly on the notes on each of the instruments, i do this with the song on the background playing at a lower volume so i make sure it matches the original and sounds good. This is easy, anyone with a little of music background or a trained ear can do it. Now, the most time consuming part and most difficult one i find is to add the different velocities, expressions, volumes, equalization, effects, all the VST's tweaks, and finally the mastering process. This is what defines the final sound and differentiates the average songs from the good ones. And that is the part i invest the most and have been trying to improve over the years.
So, no my friend, i do not have to mention anyone, and the only person i should pay some respect to is Nobuo Umetasu himself because he is the author of this song. Without him i probably would have never had the idea of creating this channel in the first place.
I think i have been very clear to you and have explained in detail how i work, if you don't like what i do i am very sorry, it's the best i can do and i am always trying to improve. I will soon make a video of me making a song, explaining how and commenting about it. Stay tuned!
+BitSymphony +BitSymphony Thanks for the lengthy response, and I really appreciated the effort you are putting into these videos and of course I am paying you respect for you making these. I, however, beg to think differently though.
Yes, you are sort of the "composer " of those, and I can not technically prove that you indeed downloaded the midi forms, put it into FL/ Ableton, and then changed the VSTs. That is my personal presumption. Kudos to you if you midi keyed everything by yourself.
You are doing a good job of putting the right VSTs on the midi track, mixing and setting the sound right obviously. Your views talk for themselves.
My only point was that midi takes a huge time to key. Melodies and the creative aspect all lies in the midi track. I bet you can agree on that you can listen to " Still more fighting" with only the midi track imported with just one simple lead synth representing the notes, and it would still sound amazing.
Nobou Uemtsu is amazing, indeed. Please make a video how you make these!
Sorry if the response is short, wrote this on my phone lol
Thank you Henric! :) yes, the midis sound amazing already by themselves, i mean, the songs are beautifully crafted. It does take some time, depending on the song, to craft a midi track from scratch. I have done this in the past and in the case of this song this is the 3rd version i make, this time i grabbed the older 2nd version project and edited it, worked on it again, so it wasn't to time consuming.
Yes, the idea of making a video with me working on a song sounds nice. I will think and work on that too.
