 @neauoire here's an initial stab at it. Call it a rough cut, but it gives you the gist of it. I didn't implement proper articulation yet, so the double notes sound as one note. Went for a Gregorian-chant-but-whistling sort of vibe. Also wanted to try to make it sound like it was coming from some distant mountains. 9 comments
  @rek @neauoire @patchlore my partner heard this playing quietly off my phone from another room and came to ask what it was, and for me to play it again for her because she liked it so much  @neauoire @rek another attempt. I reworked the whistle sound to try to make it less noisy while still breathy. for articulation, I decided to go with ornamentation between two notes with the same pitch. I also added vibrato that's coordinated with the phrasing, which reminded me of Gandalf's piercing Shadowfax whistle. @patchlore @rek It's better now! The noise is just enough, it was a bit distracting in the first version. I think this is it! I had one more request, but if it's too much, feel free to ignore. So, at the end of the book, there are 3 characters who whistle a song(which I haven't translated yet), it's a bit of a funeral song, but not a sad one, when an ilk goes to its final resting place, and the character who whistles the poem you've already implemented, is joined by 2 characters. @patchlore @rek Do you think you might be able to have 3 variance on the wistling synth, where one character is Lupin(the current one), is joined by Uno(very tall character, more bellowy maybe?) and Eka(light footed) |

@patchlore Oh wow, this is incredible. This is exactly what we had in mind! It's so freakin pretty. Would you like to clean it up a bit and send us a copy? Could you also soften the attack on the noise? We'll give a special thanks and credit to you in the audio book release over the winter. :)
You made @rek cry tears of joy, btw. Imagining one of the story's character whistle this poem at the top of the green hill is really nice. 🖤
