Hey there. I was wondering how I could observe out what specific musical instrument is in a song? I accept a PS3 and I'm a huge fan of video game themes. In one of my songs there is a musical instrument that sounds very 'tricky' to me and I was drastic to find out what information technology is. To me, it sound'due south like a piano of some sort only I'm not sure. Is there any app that can listen to a song, read it and tell what instruments are used? I have tried Shazam but that only reads for the name of the track.
Any advice would exist appreciated!

I'm certain that all game music is generated on electronic synthesizers – I seriously doubt any game composers are going to the trouble and expense of assembling the New York Combo on a massive soundstage when synthesizers these days can replicate the sound of stings and horns with impressive realism. While there are a few other instruments that utilize a pianoforte-like keyboard, such as the celesta, harpsichord or clavichord, there are no different "types" of acoustic pianos, at to the lowest degree not in the sense that you're talking. Certain, you lot take upright pianos, thousand pianos, etc. But they aren't going to audio equally drastically different to the untrained ear as say, a Gibson Les Paul or Fender Stratocaster guitar would, of which even not-musicians can readily make a distinction. Regards,
If such an app exists, I'grand certain it would only piece of work for passages with isolated instruments. It would take some serious computing power to be able to choice out and place each and every instrument in an orchestral piece, for example.

Post the title of the disc and the track- mayhap someone has information technology and can help.
With synthesizers, it can exist hard to determine what was played merely if you look in the disc info, it may prove who provided the music, who produced it and who played on information technology. If it has a date and the name of some of the musicians, information technology might be possible to narrow the choices, due east.thousand., "___ played a ____-____ synth on everything between 1989 and 2009", or something similar that. If you can notice a link to the vocal, information technology would help, too.

It is a PlayStation3 game called God of War one, or comment known as God of War or GOW. It was released in 2005. There is no info in the game virtually anything relating to music. Information technology is the song that play'due south at the "Blades of Hades" checkpoint. In that location seems to exist no link to the song of the internet. I but wish I had a capture card so I could record information technology and upload it to my YouTube channel...

If you can observe information technology online and mail service a link to this section, it would be a lot easier to pick out the intruments- I couldn't hear much detail with my laptop speakers and information technology would exist better if I (or others) could hear it straight from the online source.

Like I said, at that place is nowhere to find it online because it'due south rare to detect people like me who like video game themes equally much as I practise. After what the other guy said, and a chip of enquiry, I am quite convinced that electronic synthesisers are involved with this.

Sounds similar several Pad and choir sounds. If you have a chance, go to a music store and play with a Korg Krom, Roland Phantom, or Yamaha Motif. I would bet 90% of all soundtracks are made with these iii keyboard/Synthesizers
Right...
