  1. Hi!

    Sorry that I'm late with the infos from my side - but I guess you know the thing with "time issues".

    Anyway... regarding the mastering of the whole CD.

    I'd say that we have the WIPs first to listen to what can be changed mixtechnically and what not, then the stuff will be fixed (maybe even in private via AIM) and after that I want to have the raw files if possible.

    That means for you:

    Absolutely DON'T discart your original and/or project files as the project is not finished yet. After it's released you can do with them whatever you want to. But until "Chrono Symphonic" is out, I see this project still as "in progress".

    How I want the files:

    Well first I thought "render the files without any master reverb" to maybe unify the track with convolution reverb and a designed concert hall I have on my disposal. But I guess that's not possible as everyone has own opinions and likings of the sound. I know from Claado that he at least wants a unified sound, so if you mix, try not to make it too dry. Maybe listen to other productions and aim for the same sound. If you think that your reverb doesn't sound good, we can talk about that and I can look at it if there's some afterediting needed.

    It's a thing to discuss if I take control of the master reverb or not. It's up to you.

    What's more important to me is the following:

    The files have to be mixed properly. That means, if I master the files and don't have a stripped down version of your arrangement for mixing (which would be a lot of work for me and you have to trust my mix - that'll also delay the releasedate) and your mix has issues that I can't fix (mostly volume stuff) then I can't do pretty much. So please think of a proper balanced mix where we can talk about after the WIPs are due to come in.

    Now the important part

    After we (Claado and I) decided what's okay I, like I already mentioned, want a raw file from you. RAW means: no master compression, limited to -2dB max, stereo wave file. If that isn't possible for you due to filesize or internet speed problems, highend flac or 320kbit mp3 stereo (not Joint Stereo! and not frequency band cropped) are possible too, though not recommended. The rest lies inn my hands.

    I'll come back to this topic after the WIP check to tell you where to send the files to for mastering. Until the next major deadline, I wish you a very nice day.

  2. As info... IK Multimedia told me via a german retailer that Philharmonik will be shipped within next week. If you need a good piano, simply score it in MIDI and I can port it if you want. I have like 8-10 pianos with different sizes and sounds in my repatoire.

    I'll post about the mastering thing in the next days. However, those who participated in Soundtempest's "Aura and Omen" (which is NOT forgotten) know how I want the files for further editing. ;)

    Thanks for accepting me in the team.

  3. Hm... interesting. Looks like Image Line finally jets off. A sampler, a loop player that looks like something from e-lab orSpectrasonics, a graphical EQ with 31bands and a multicompressor.

    For those who know how to use it, great. But I also fear the flood of mudded up and overcompressed tracks on OCR.

    Prices (including upgrade prices) already known for FL6 Studio?

  4. p.s. fox, did you shave your eyebrows or are they just very light?

    cheers.

    Uhm... they're that light (so is my haircolor, especially in that light). XD

    I still wanna know how Gray looks like. His mysterious aura seems to make him sexier than all others. But is it really that way? *hm....*

  5. I think Gray is only as sexy cause he hides his identity and pictures. If he reveals the truth, I'm pretty sure half of the fanboys (does he even have fangirls?) scream for a change of their votes. ;)

    j/k

  6. OMG! Now only Gray needs to reveal himself. Whether he's cute or not (HOT or NOT?! XD).

    In the meantime:

    [/shameless pimpage]

    *I'm askin' myself why I am not on the list... OH SNAP... I'm no judge... heh*

  7. Haha... I vote for "Demonik Electronik". Cause Analoq sounds more evil in this track. The title "man sieht sich Galaxie" was from me, well... Analoq asked me how to write it correctly. XD

    AH MAN! Close run. So far Gray seems to be the most loved and sexiest bitch, closely followed by analoq. Could it be that Gray is on the mysterious side? No pics from him available and always being the OCR watchdog (moderator)?

    */me hides in darkness again*

  8. analoq all the way. PURE SEX0Rz!

    I mean... look at all of them. Only Aaron, Vigilante, Larry and zyko are known from pictures. And Aaron is definately the coolest (dig up the thread with the pics of the VG concert in LA... then you know what I mean).

    Well and Larry is our Sex-God anyway. Did Paige finally get her sexual frosty by now? XD

    AND GRAY!

    Be honest! You voted for yourself, aight?!

  9. You would ask that question Compyfoxy!

    OF COURSE I would, dear Paige. ;p

    Wow Bladiator... that is a kinda... huge controller. With the original Nintendo Roumble Pack or the MadCats one (you know... with or without battery?!).

    XD *manically laughing*

  10. XD

    Which of those 4 home consoles? NES, SNES, N64 or Cube?

    And yeah this seriously reminds me of "Team Gato":

    "Hello?!" "Sup Girl?!" "Gato is that you?!" "Know I always love you, know I have some Metal Joints! Are you ready? So let's go!" "Oh Gato..."

  11. Dear Aurora: This is a subtle bump to keep our show on the front page.

    *slap* Pay attention, willya? It's already on the mainpage, cause it's a sticky.

    And someone has to say it again:

    Aurora sure is HAWT! And by that I don't mean she's coming from the grill. XD

  12. well he already HAS the thunder... why stealing it? Wait... unless it's a cover of a cover with random vocal stabs. XD

    When are you gonna help me mix, monkey? :x

    DUDE! Do you really need help after the remix with Just Us? I "could" learn from you RnB technically. ;)

    (though your bass was a bit too hot and I'd have mixed the vocals a bit more different - but that's just me)

  13. Well I recorded it, but I didn't really engineer it. Didn't have the time. But credits? Hm...

    Now lemme think... how many pals did I mix already? *count...* woha... I guess I gain a new title from now on:

    studio_compyfox_mix_monkey.png

    What's next? Judge? ;p

  14. and 2- I want to replenish fast. Can't anyone who has space torrent their complete collection? Or zip it for me and meet me online to send it? Or do something that isn't as retarded as going everywhere for everything; grabbing one at a time?

    Sorry to step on your feet, LAOS. But I lost my files in a HDD crash too and it took me friggin 3 months to get at least 57% back of what I had once - the rest wasn't available anymore. A bit homework is needed. Especially at the KVR Boards cause half of the links are dead (for example the Maestro stuff).

    And one hint next time:

    Do backups on a regular base. My last HDD crash gave me that painful lesson.

  15. bach lol

    "That's a pretty good joke from one where I can't even pronounce the name right..."

    If I might semi quote "The Detective":

    And yeah Larry you're right. I'm a damn lazy ass.

    Now go away, nothing to see here and check out the torrents.

    EDIT:

    Did InkBot on that particular board even do some researches? Almost all shows were live at WMRE, and ORMGAS plays only what was recorded. Hell I should offer ORMGAS my Crimson Moon shows, maybe then he's also like "GAWD KILL THAT GERMAN F*CKER!"

    One thing I can say about that:

    "InkBot... shut the hell up, and do it better or stop bitching and listening to ORMGAS/OCR - noone forces you to do so". But I have a feeling that he secretly likes videogame remixes after all. But he wouldn't say that officially. That's called "ego forming".
