The last one is made especially for the monster chasing tune..
Don't you think the percussion adds tension?

Imagine being chased by a grunt while this is playing!



Yeah, I mean it does, but the quality of the instruments is too misplaced in Amnesia, they sound too...cheap?

Yes, that's guitar pro xp.
You can choose different instruments (Contrabass, cello, violin, choir, flute, guitar, bass guitar, drums, and many many more)

I got a question about guitar pro, is there a way to make the program record the buttons you push. Like I can add bars, but is there a way to automatically make the program record how long the spaces are going to be between each note?

The problem here is that they don't fit whit the Amnesia style :/ they look to much like classic sci fi movies or something! you need to use "older" instruments... and less digital/now day ones or it just look unnatural while playing amnesia... i think this might help just a bit http://www.youtube.com/user/frictionalga...YvRjiaKVew

Updated "Peril"!
It has a much more classical feeling now

Yes, first you set the tempo (default 120 bpm). Then you can fill in the notes you want to play (like tablatures).

Just look at this screenshot, and you'll know what i'm talking about

RE: Music for custom stories
I just added a bunch of bars and pressed a random button of the 12345678 but when i play it the spaces between each note is exactly as long. Is there a way to make the spaces change depending on how fast you press the buttons? Like if the keyboard was a real piano. Or you have to manually change how long each space between each note should be?

You would be better off investing in a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) such as FL Studio, Reason, Logic Pro, Cubase. There are countless, really. FL Studio has a mode where you can use your computer keyboard like a piano and record notes, and it records them however long you hold them, and then you can edit them afterwards. There's plenty of tutorials online.
