I'm sorry if this is the wrong board to post on.

So I want to try mapping a song, but I can't seem to find the tv size mp3 for it anywhere! I've tried googling many different things but I can only seem to find the full version. Is there some website that hosts a bunch of anime openings?

The song is Misty Mystery by Garnet Crow, btw.

lol OP i don't know what you're talking about tbh because there's something called "YouTube"

people just search for the anime openings and then convert the video into mp3 and then voila.

if that doesn't work due to like the anime opening being fairly new to the scene/copyright bullshit then what one would usually do is just take the mp3 and then do some special editing in fl studio 12 and then go from there with the track

Do Youtube DL-ing and convert them, as Kirueggy said. I also fetch some songs from there

you can always just steal an mp3 from a set that's already uploaded

Ew..... Well it's true some mappers get their music sources from YouTube, they do also get it from real sources too. If you look around, there are private trackers, music sites, and much more on the world wide web. It's just you have to take the time to look for them.

Also, use Youtube rips as your last resource.

Jesus christ please stop endorsing cancer inducingly bad youtube rips.

It is not that hard to find a proper mp3 or even a flac source these days, especially for japanese weeb music.

This would imply that people had the ability to do basic web searching.

Uhhh... I've used youtube like once or twice to get an mp3 as a last resort. I usually get all from soundcloud/buy it/use downloadhelper (<3)

Dear god that's just awful, no wonder some of the beatmaps sound so bad.
Why not just downl... err... acquire through peers the official soundtrack releases and use the audio from those?

Since I couldn't find a good quality version, I just went in audition and cut up the full version.

R people ACTUALLY stupid enough to use YOUTUBECONVERTED mp3s?

Please, for the love of god, NEVER do that. In EVERY SINGLE case there's better options to choose from. The only exceptions are unprofessional "songs" (if u wanna call them that) that originate from a channel and are never uploaded anywhere else by the "creator"

YouTube mp3 rips aren't even that half bad. It all depends if the initial video upload doesn't sound like a dying walrus to begin with

They are pretty bad. Always.
Cause YT does its own audio encoding regardless of the initial quality. This causes you to almost always have a frequencycut at 16kHz and a quality of 96 kbit/s meaning that any converters will actually upscale it and ruin the quality even more.

Pls refer to this if you want to find out whether your mp3 is shit or not: t/320007

Can just point to Zare.

Not to say I condone any stealing of offical .mp3 from their source (cd), but if anyone needs any good quality ones, you are free to private message me for it. Would be glad to help.
