Any plans of new musical instruments? What would you like to see?

I thought that was in the game??? Maybe I'm mistaken, but I believed it was an option in the audio options page.

Did somebody say

?

Your hope was fulfilled a long time ago

F11, audio, player instrument volume slider.

[Fipmip.7219]

friend of mine lamented you couldn't play chords on the pianos/organs in the world.

[Scar.1793]

A good violin. Hopefully not with weird sounds like the so called bass :(

[Zoltar MacRoth.7146]

More guitar options, especially more electric-esque guitars. And shorter cooldowns on the charr guitar notes.

[Blude.6812]

All of them removed from the game

But they give a lot of people pleasure, and you can disable hearing them, if you like! I would not like to take away the fun from other people, when I can manage my own experience. :)

OR... double the instruments by adding a copy of each existing instrument but make the copy EXTRA SHINY! And make them shoot unicorns when you play them.

The game has cows.Many cows.What we need are cowbells.

More cowbell.

[Bast.7253]

A Sitar! Duh! Especially while we are in Elona. Such a beautiful sound.

Theramin gets my vote as well.

But a sitar is a must.

[hugo.4705]

Yeah plz give instruments some love! But before adding more, plz fix the old ones by adding half tones as f1->f5 skills, and record better sounds especially charr bass.We pass near a ton of musics due to the lack of half~tones. Add mores if you want but keep in mind these fixs.

Ideas: little piano/ accordion, little pipe organ....

In keeping with the vaguely late-mediaeval / early-modern(1) Europeean theme of Kryta, perhaps a crumhorn or rackett.

(1) "Mediaeval" is a wide term, covering a period, the so-called Middle Ages, of about a thousand years from approximately 450 AD (fall of the western Roman Empire) to 1450 AD (beginning of the Renaissance), while the Early Modern period begins approximately at the end of the Middle Ages.

@Samug.6512 said:First give the existing ones accidentals. Then we can talk about new ones.

Agreed. With the instruments we've got, I've felt a bit limited by the basic major scale notes they have. Being able to transition between major and minor is important, and we can't do that without access to the full chromatic scale.

[Novus Angellite.6589]

I don't want to own too many instruments, personally. I am holding out on my wallet for the day a violin enters the store--the perfect instrument for my main Sylvari.

For new instruments, +1 to racially themed ones!How about Uzolan's PORTABLE Mechanical Orchestra (1 man band)

Indeed. I like them. It is always nice to see a musician at one of our cities, like this random occurrence a few weeks ago:

[hugo.4705]

haha that amount of chairs! Just happened to me while waiting for the shatterer, someone spawn the table, we spawned the chairs! ;) Always someone playing harp too, a great addition these novelties!

I'd like to disable others, but still hear my own :(

[Cragga the Eighty Third.60]

Adding accidentals would definitely be a huge plus. So many songs we can't play. Would it be possible to change so that holding down the shift key while pressing a number would sharp the note?

[Azure The Heartless.3261]

1.) A good violin.2.) A guitar sampled from whoever provided the sound for the NPC shredding at the Zephyrite Cliffs last event

GUESS WHAT?

I got a FEVER, and the only PRESCRIPTION is more COWBELL

[MithranArkanere.8957]

You can never hae too much music. I could use any of these:

• A kazoo. Obviously, duh.
• A norn tuba.
• An asuran keytar with SAB music tones.
• A sylvari leaf flute.
• An ocarina.
• An electric guitar.
• A distorted electric guitar
• A bagpipe
• An accordion
• A banjo
• A shamisen
• A clarinet
• A xylophone
• A harmonica
• A koto
• A saxophone
• A violin
• Some instruments that are too large to use on the move and will make you sit on a chair when used, o they are basically also a 'chair' mount:
  • A piano.
  • A calliope.
  • A theremin.
  • A reed organ
  • A rock organ
  • An, of course, an ondioline.

[mochy.3028]

If not possible piano for the size.. add a keytar
