How To Make Music Levels in Super Mario Maker 2!

[@DannyBPlays]

I'm really glad to hear everyone who says how much my video helped! And I've played(and hearted) all of the music levels posted so if this this video helped you make a music level, post the ID here and I'll give it a play and heart. But only auto music levels, I don't have time to please and beat everyone's level if they aren't auto. I'll heart your comment when I've played and hearted the level

[@DaRealPickle-ee3ij]

I would make Megalovania if I had SMM2 or even a Switch😭😂

[@Lil_Paulie]

Hey Danny, this video was incredibly helpful, thanks a ton buddy! I made a level, it's the 1st Mario Maker level I've ever, so there are probably numerous ways I could improve. I wish the item/enemy limit was higher, the levels were longer and the scale of pitch went higher and lower. I guess I just have to make do. My level code is TY8-B4Y-6QG. Thanks again!!!

[@oliviabarata6025]

Hi, thank you for this tutorial. If you make an other one, could you explain how it works in vertical sub areas. For example, creating a music during a free fall could be interesting. Bye

[@marcelloghigo5980]

Hi Danny, thanks for your tutorial and for playing my first level \m/ I'm currently planning to do a musical one, but for now if you or anybody else would try my new level that would be great. Its code is *424 GJX XSG*. Any critics are welcome, share your thoughts ;) Cheers

[@gravitybeetle4921]

Maybe you could use your knowledge of this stuff to make a music level that will play Solar Man's theme from Mega Man 10.

[@hana_jpeg4171]

When I made my music level a couple weeks ago, it took a couple hours and A LOT of trial and error. This vid helps a lot for people wanting to build their own music level cause TRUST ME, it’s so much easier with a tutorial

[@inyourgame6131]

That's true

[@namecomingsoon9517]

Depends on what song I’m trying to do. Cause I still don’t understand. I need someone physically with me

Really good video. It will help a lot of people. Here some extra tips: Use sound effects for beats or other effects in the song Use doors and pipes to repeat or extend the song Use custom scroll for different speeds Focus on design to get more likes If you use auto scroll and you have enough space you can make a little jump'n run challenge for Mario to also get more likes Most importantly you should make levels of songs that people know like pop-muisc or Nintendo soundtracks

[@D3sdinova]

All i want to know is how to make note blocks actually sound like notes Cause it doesnt work the way shown in this video No matter where you place them, or what you use to bounce on them they will always make the same sound

[@SeeTv.]

Desdinova Eternal light No, they make different sounds. Just make sure, you're not using the standard white note block. You need to press and hold on the note block to change it to a music note block.

[@D3sdinova]

@@SeeTv. yeah thats what i was doing wrong Thanks Allright time to make shes a rainbow

[@vash1080]

@@SeeTv. this was first major problem, because this simple explanation missed on 90% of all article or videos.

[@baumrinde3990]

Lol was machst denn du hier? xD

[@hana_jpeg4171]

There was one thing I saw that you missed out. A POW block is great for a beat, and usually a combination of some POWS and P-Switches is amazing for making great beats.

[@DannyBPlays]

Yeah I would've added it but there wasnt room for the POWs to all be with the song and the same beat, I would've have to move them higher or lower

[@pabp47]

Thanks, with the addition of the tutorial dojo, idk why they didnt include one for music levels, but this video works perfectly for it.

Thank you for making this tutorial. I am planning on making a PacMan level whenever I get Super Mario Maker 2 for my birthday, this coming Saturday, and this will help me try and make the PAC-Man theme. This was very detailed as well. Good work

I knew music levels were very hard to make but after watching this video I'm just amazed at the talent that goes into a mario maker music level. Hats off to creators like COM_POSER!!!

[@blixten635real]

3 years late, but I don’t think music levels need too much effort anymore. There is a website that makes it A LOT easier to make them.

[@DiscipleKnight1010]

basically learned how to music from a Mario maker tutorial

[@pizza619]

How to music? You mean how to Make music

[@amazingfireboy1848]

I know how to make music, but I don't know how to do that thing with the on/off blocks that makes it possible to go into a room twice but hear different music.

This is something I've wanted to do and now I can try it out, I'll post a music level here when I finish it, also I know you wanted to keep it basic but 5ths and minor/major 3rds could also be used as a substitute for an octave (adding a 5th and a 3rd together might be a bit challenging given spacing).

[@VanArkride]

Thank you for the tutorial, this was exactly what I needed. Here's the id for the course I was able to make: DM2-2MX-DWG

A great tutorial! I’m planning to transcribe Etrian Odyssey music into Mario Maker, I may post the codes when I’ve got the first one done! (It’ll be “Initial Strike” from Etrian Odyssey 1, go look it up the games have great music)

[@DJTileTurnip]

I read this too fast and thought it said Etrian Mario Oddysey and was so confused

[@Eevee19]

Oh my god I wanted to do this ever since I heard one!! My sister found one that was Thriller by MJ (I really like him) and she said "Sis! You're going to like this!!" I thought it sounded AWESOME. I wanted to make one but it was her switch day and we take turns using the Switch. Plus it looked WAY too complicated. So I did some research and after watching this, it dosent sound so hard! Sorry for this long comment oh and btw this all happened today. So tomorow I will make a music level (its of the original pokemon theme, I play pokemon sword and watch pokemon) and will make sure to send it to you. Good thing I know about octaves and such since I've played piano since I was 8 (I'm 13)! Sorry for blabbering, all I can say is, thank you!!!

[@Eevee19]

Also is there an item that makes cymbals or an alternate drum?

[@DannyBPlays]

the spring makes a cymbal noise. Drums can be thwomp, cannon, and maybe some others

[@marysol161]

And also Jump Up,Super Star!

[@Eevee19]

Haha, I forgot about this comment! I'm 17 and have made several music levels, I'll try to send one like I said I would 3 years ago, oops 😬

[@OneHighFive]

Thanks Danny! This was full of clear, precise scenarios and instructions. I had trouble finding out how to turn a normal music block into a melodic one. I caught a glimpse here and now I'm ready to rock and/or roll. I'll share soon.

[@DannyBPlays]

thanks for the nice words, I'm really glad it helped! I was surprised to find that there weren't any other clearly organized music level tutorial videos

[@shreddarjackcheese4021]

Thanks! This helped me a lot! I didn't know how to silence the level and the section that showed me all the different sounds was a big time saver! I would however like to point out that the 4 tile spacing tip you provided is not at all legitimate. The tile layout does not correlate to a song at all unless you have the perfect bpm and side scroll to match the original. It's all time based and the spacing is completely unrelated to actual sheet music. For example, a song I'm making in mario maker right now is in the standard 4/4 time signature but in order to time it correctly the bass hits are 13 spaces apart.

[@e-pointer2262]

I made a level not exactly using all from this video, but this video did help me make some much needed adjustments. :3

Great video! You definitely had a couple things in there I hadn't considered (like conveyors at different walking speeds). I like your contraption for playing the note at the highest screen position, I couldn't figure out how to do it and it may well come in handy at some point. I pretty much only make music courses, and most of mine require you to do something to clear them, but none of them are hard. I have a couple auto ones that you may enjoy: R6F-LV3-TQG RSN-98V-1RF If you like those and are feeling adventurous, try out some of my others!

Me watching and hearing him say: "A music note is triggered by something bouncing on it" Me: *places a music block, and an enemy above it to bounce, pressed play* Music block: *doesn’t do a music note sound, does a like spring-ish noise* So... I couldn't for the life of me figured out why it wasn't making a music noise! THEN I finally figured it out!! What the video doesn’t state is the music block MUST be the orange variation. I didn't know this till I clicked and held the block and saw it had different viariations lol. White music block - basic jumping spring-ish noise, the sound of it won't change no matter where it's put or what enemy is jumping on it! Orange music block - Musical note noise, sound of it changes with placement/enemy!
