2 | Hi everyone , | ||||||||
3 | |||||||||
4 | I've always been a big fan of the Rayman soundtracks. I'm really interested in what goes into making a soundtrack for a videogame. What I like about the Rayman soundtracks is that the tracks are all very contextual and varied, there's always something interesting. | ||||||||
5 | |||||||||
6 | I like to compose music myself and have collected a lot of sample libraries and gear over the years. I thought it might be a cool idea to write down all the gear and sample libraries that were used in the production. | ||||||||

9 | This is what I've found: | ||||||||

33 | Rayman 2 - The Great Escape: | ||||||||
34 | |||||||||
35 | -All kinds of Spectrasonics sample libraries (London Choir, Distorted Reality, Heart Of Africa, Asia, Supreme Beats etc ... almost all of them) -Some of the beats are also on the new Spectrasonics Stylus (RMX) | ||||||||

42 | *note: I know that on Eric Chevalier's website it says that he owns an XV3080, but since it was released in 2000 (and Rayman 2 was released a year before that) it is likely that used the JV-1080 or JV-2080 and replaced it with the XV3080, which has pretty much the same sounds. | ||||||||

95 | Christophe Heral: "As a composer I worked last year on Rayman Origin´s, a UbiSoft Video Game. | ||||||||
96 | I needed to find Middle-ages Instruments to animate the World of princesses and dragons in our next project, Rayman Legend ! | ||||||||
97 | I found all I needed in ERA." | ||||||||

102 | New! | ||||||||
103 | |||||||||
104 | SFX: | ||||||||
105 | |||||||||
106 | Many of the Rayman 2 sounds are from the well known "The General Series 6000" from Soundideas. (You'll also find the famous "Doom doors" sounds in there, that "swoosh" fire sound that has been used in countless videogames and movies (I'm talking about the sound that you hear when Jano shoots fire at you) and the "warp" sound from Super Mario 64, when you enter Princess Toadstool's secret slide.) | ||||||||
107 | |||||||||
108 | The additional sounds (like when you get a lum or get powered-up and the "footstep" sounds from the robotpirates) are from the Hanna Barbera SFX library. I also found a bunch of Rayman 1 and Rayman 3 (GBA version) sounds in that library. | ||||||||
109 | |||||||||
110 | I found most of these sounds on stockmusic.com (in the sound effects category). I also found the robot pirates' "laser gun" (kapeeewww.. ) sound there. It's called "Gun Laser" or something along those lines. I think it came from the Lucasfilm Library that they sell, because I've heard that particular sound in the Star Wars movies before. | ||||||||
111 | |||||||||
112 | |||||||||
113 | If you know more of what went into the making of the Rayman soundtracks, please leave a comment. I'd really like to see this list grow. | ||||||||
