Gamasutra has a story up on some of the audio technology used to make Halo 3. Specifically, real time signal processing software by Waves, called Maxx.
The story contains a short quote from Marty "The Elder" O'Donnell.
Thanks to Anton P. Nym for the heads-up in the HBO forum.
Videogames Live has announced that EMI Classics will be publishing an album of the concert series' greatest hits, available this coming October 15. Music from Halo will be featured. Check the press release for all the details. Thanks again, Wu, this time in #hbo.
TheBest32 writes that the transcription of the piece Earth City from Halo 2 that he was arranging for two pianos will be a little later than he expected-- but still out before Halo 3. I'm guessing most things that don't get done before Halo 3 won't end up getting done until a good while after Halo 3. At least 15 hours later, anyway.
Marty "The Elder" O'Donnell has announced on the Marty Army group page that he's "back" and that this might mean he's mostly done working on Halo 3.
Spartan182 has sent in a PrintMusic file of the piano solo from the Halo 3 Announcement Trailer. We've added it to the Halo Sheet Music section, check it out!
Lukems has a new top story up at Bungie.net; this one is about the exceptional audio in the Halo 3 beta. Sound and music have always been strong points of the series, but I have to say that I think so far Halo 3 is taking it to a whole new level; possibly as high as eleven.
Wired blogger Chris "GeekDad" Anderson recounts what little of his recent Bungie Studios visit that his NDA will allow. What he can say is that he recorded about thirty lines of Marine dialogue for a character that apparently becomes Flood infected. The process apparently involves "screaming like a girl".
He's put up all the lines he was asked to read in his blog, so head over and check them out.
Ok.... Everybody has been saying that Remembrance, the Maw, and Ghosts of Reach are the same. I don't think so. I want sheet music for Remembrance from Halo 2 soundtrack Volume 2. If you still don't know what I'm talking about, go to this

Its a VERY pretty song and I would like to have it on music. Any response will be appreciated.

does any body have sheet music for The Last Spartan or Flawed Legacy
if you do please let me know
This is the OLD sheet music database.
Please go to the new Sheet Music page or check the Halo, Myth and Marathon subsections.
Two strange Halo-related music items of note today:
I was browsing through the Sheet music again when I realized..."Hey....theres no Remembrance!" Remembrance from the Halo 2 soundtrack (volume 2) was one of my FAVORITE songs. I just heard it not too long ago on an another site by "garbage-man" (I think that was his name) So the songs out there, I just can't find it. Could somebody direct me to sheet music for Piano or Orchestra for Remembrance? If nothing else, could somebody work on trying to make sheet music? Any response will be greatly appreciated!
Ok first of all I have recently found out that I will have a lot of free time after all, thus I will still be on this site a lot.
Anyway moving on to the subject. There have been several requests about a transcription for the halo 3 cg trailer's background music. Well I was not able to make it out so clearly but I can tell you that it is only the first part of the halo 1 main theme played a little faster. And that is that.
More music transcribed by Halo fans on www.vgmusic.com.
It is only midi's so there is no sheet music but they do have some really impressive stuff. For those of you who wanted to hear what siege of madrigal sounds like they have that there too.
Anyways click on the music menu (the thing on the bottom right side of the video game music archive picture) and scroll down to xbox. Then click G-R or classic style and scroll down to Halo. The first music you should see is A Walk In The Woods.
