What kind of songs do you upload onto your channel?
      I try and keep my uploaded songs into three categories: Anime songs, Video Game songs and Original songs. Usually, I am experimenting when I deviate from these genres.
    Can I use your songs in my works?
      Yes, any song I upload can be used for your works as long as you clearly credit me in the video, description, or credits (if applicable).
      However, you are not allowed to use any song commercially without my explicit permission.
        Regarding Hypixel Skyblock OST, I no longer have the copyright over those tracks. You must contact Hypixel Inc. for questions regarding using their music.
        (Non-commercial remixes on YouTube are OK. You can also use the soundtrack in your YouTube videos as long as you credit both ShinkoNet and Hypixel Inc.)
      How can I request a song for you to cover?
        No, I only do paid work. I don't even have time to cover the music that I personally enjoy.
      Do you do song commissions?
        Please email me at [email protected] and state the song you want me to create, what style, and any other comments.
        These rates can change in the future (higher prices if more demand), and I may be closed to commissions at times to fulfil the existing requests.
          MIDI covers are $100USD. for songs between 1-3 minutes, negotiable if more.
          Original music, in any style I can do, are $200USD per track.
          This amount can be less if your work is for non-profit purposes, or you wish to ask multiple tracks from me at once.
          I can also work on a royalty payment. The rates are up for discussion.
      How do you get a visualizer for your songs? Why are they in stereo? How can you get over the two octave limit? Why are there so many instruments? Etc.
        These are all features of Open Note Block Studio with resource packs. If you were looking at a video I made in 2018 or earlier, I used NBS2CBS. However, most of NBS2CBS's functions are now in ONBS.
      Can I have a tutorial on how to make this note block song?
        I livestream my process on how I create my note block music. I can answer your questions in chat. You should subscribe to ensure you'll not miss a livestream.
      Can I have the NBS file?
        I don’t share the source files for my songs to anyone. If you somehow obtain a .nbs file of my work outside of a commission, you are not allowed to distribute or use it anywhere.
        The only exceptions are the few songs I have bundled inside the NBS Mod zip file on Minecraft Forums and Open Note Block Studio's sample songs.
        Excluding Hypixel tracks, I plan to add downloads of my note block covers on the website as a Minecraft datapack/schematic/world download.
      What is the program and settings you are using to display your MIDIs?
        MIDITrail yossiepon mod is the prorgam I used in 2017. The settings include 2D piano view, camera rolled 90 degrees and above the keyboard, and a luma key effect for the background. I have also modified the .ini files to alter the note scroll speed.
        Currently I am using MIDIFall. The program can be downloaded at this website..
      How do you make your MIDIs?
        I use FL Studio. Using the Playlist feature, I have the entire MIDI in a single pattern, usually. I then have the original song as an audio object lined up with the MIDI pattern to sync over the song when I press Play.
        I also use plugins/techniques such as Parametric EQ, a Spectogram and Stereo Isolation to help me hear the notes.
        I stream myself creating my MIDIs on YouTube, you can find the archived stream of that song’s creation in most of my recent MIDI covers.
      What plugins do you use?
        A few plugins I often use include: Kontakt (and libraries such as The Grandeur, Electri6ity, and my own samples), EWQL Symphonic Orchestra, Steinberg plugins (Retrologue, Groove Agent 5, The Grand 3, Virtual Guitarist, LM4-MK11), Roland/Edirol plugins (Super Quartet, Hyper Canvas), Serum, Sylenth1, and my hardware sound module; an Edirol SD-90.
