"Peaches" But in Mario Maker 2

I'm trying to recreate the Peaches song from the Mario movie in Mario maker 2. okay okay I literally have no idea how to make a song or how to use note blocks in Mario maker at all so today I'm gonna figure all of that out learn how to make music myself and show how you too can make music in Mario Maker also I'll play the whole Peaches song for you at the end after I make it let's get started so if you didn't know you can create songs in Mario Maker levels through the use of note blocks these blocks play a sound when some sort of object lands on them and each object plays a different instrument you can also change the pitch of the sound depending on how high you place the Block in the level so if you align these blocks in a scale like this they'll all play their note as each of the blocks load in when Mario walks across the screen [Music] so now all I need to do is align all of these blocks in the exact position as the Peach's song Melody yeah this is gonna be rough isn't it the first step was to get the midi file for the song and I found a cover of peaches from an online music sequencer website made by the user nerdboy that had this midi file download so now that we have the melody we can turn it into a Mario Maker level there's a program called Mario Maestro that makes this process a whole lot easier to visualize basically I uploaded the midi file to this program and it told me where I should place these note blocks and enemies to create the song So boom easy I just placed the blocks in the same spot in Mario maker and the song will play right huh no no no it was never that simple and turned out to be much more complicated first of all I've seen a bunch of music levels in this game and this song is very complex for Mario Maker standards there is a ton of necessary notes to include to make it sound just right and since it adds such a wide range of notes and sounds a lot of notes were cut off due to Mario Maker's limited level high so at first the main Melody sounded like this [Music] in order to fit most of them on screen which basically means keeping the same note just changing the pitch so now let's start building this in Mario maker at first I used the Goombas to make a grand piano sound which worked perfect for the song Bowser's singing was more tricky to find the right instrument for it though this was because there is a 100 enemy limit in Mario Maker levels and for the piano part alone I used like 91 Goombas the only saving grace for this was that the power-ups didn't count as an entity so I can use them as Bowser's singing however my options were much more limited but in the end I used a fire flower for this and it sounded like a recorder now this was kinda sounding like the song [Music] however it felt like some parts were off like it was skipping certain notes in the Melody and I found out that's because there was an issue where I needed to have two different notes play at the same time but with different instruments and there is no way to overlap blocks in Mario Maker so I looked into this and found many different ways of adjusting the timing so that two different notes play at once as you're walking by basically this was done by having an enemy drop from a block higher so they hit the note block at the same time as the one next to it that was lower this is because the enemy on the left loads in first then Falls for a sec before hitting the note block which matches the enemy on the right that immediately hits the block gravity you know I even got more precise with the timing by having certain objects fall slower and using parachutes too and by doing this the melody was pretty accurate now I could just leave the song here but we can get a much closer sound to the actual song If we play around with the notes and sound effects more this sounds alright sure but one problem was that all of these notes were very short which doesn't translate too well for the parts where Bowser is really going all out and holding those long notes like you know the part where Bowser's literally screaming I love you to Peach in the song but with these items though it just sounds like this in game so I swapped in some of the longer lasting instruments for these parts the fire piranha plant has this nice string sounding instrument and the dry bones has a flute noise both of which were held for much longer there was also these Hammer Bros that had a really sweet electric guitar sound too so I mainly use these three items to make this song Sound a whole lot better foreign oh and I also used the mecca koopa's really weird sound for a very passionate part of the song that I thought fits super well and you'll get to see what that sounds like at the end during the final song I still did have to keep some of the more short notes though and that's just because literally all the power-ups had this sound and I needed to still use some power-ups to deal with the whole 100 enemy limit side note but I really didn't like the fire flower recorder sound anymore so I ended up literally replacing all of them with the Super Mario Bros 2 mushroom and it sounded like a violin which I don't know sounded better to me that's also why I had to change it to the Super Mario Bros 1 style because you know Mario World simply doesn't have that power up now it was really coming together but there were still certain parts that sounded a bit too empty like in this section for example I played around with the sounds for a while to just make this part sound better but I eventually used both the fire piranha and the dry bones and hit a note at the same time to make a really nice secondary sound so I basically had them go down the scale in a certain part and I think this really added a nice touch that made this song Sound complete [Music] then I wanted to work more on the visuals of this level we already got the night sky like the movie scene which is good but I wanted to take it a step further and create a bunch of pixel art to match what Bowser is singing in the song appearing as the player walks by kinda like building lyrics for this song obviously I didn't have enough room to write out all the words so I use symbols and pixel art to represent some of them lyrics like Princess Peach at the end of the line or others like with my star we're gonna Rule and with all the building and all the visual design completed this is Peaches in Mario maker foreign [Music] thank you foreign [Music] foreign [Music]
