  1. Out of curiosity are these solo projects aimed for OCR release in the end? Are they open for people to join?
  2. I miss external General MIDI sound modules. They were ace (and poop on your post). Oh and .mid files ARE silent if you play them and don't have anything that reads the midi data and produces sounds. Nobody cares what your PC was shipped with. That is kinda the whole point of this thread.
  3. Reminds me of that pretty version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow, very nice. I have to agree with my fellow judges though, shows a lot of promise but needs some additional polish. Dali doesn't have a particularly easy melody for voice either so I'm really impressed but can understand some of the issues. The ukulele/harp (???) is a bit out of tune too which doesn't help the flute or voice. Very intimate arrangement that shows a lot of promise but a little bit more work on this would really make it shine. NO(resubmit)
  4. bork bork bork herpi derpi derp! Billion thanks <3
  5. We're working on it but pretty much all staff is at MAGFest at the moment. It'll be replaced soon!
  6. I'm gonna have to take this opportunity to drop out, sorry. I just don't have the time.
  7. Haven't judged a halc mix in a while, nice to be back in action. Let's see then... ok. YES You really get this arranging business. Constantly varying things up melodically, harmonically and texturally. The only thing I can think to criticize is that the track is a bit too breathing and pumping, easy with the compression/mastering my friend! Overall, great track though. You make it seem so easy.
  8. This has always been one of my favorite sources from FFVII for some reason. Maybe because of how early it appeared in the game and how horribly exciting it all were... Anyway, track sounds good! I wouldn't have distorted the bass as much as you did, low frequencies work better cleaner regardless of how heavy you want it. The guitars and playing sound good though! While the drum samples/sequencing aren't perfect, a bit stiff, they definitely get the job done. The choirs add a lot too! The arrangement takes this relatively simple source places by really bringing it rhythmically. Definitely an interesting take on it. There could've been a bit more variations in harmony/melody but there's enough here to make it shine. Nice job! YES
  9. Very bad. NO Okay not really. Nice of you to use the marimba, more people should use the marimba! Some nice instruments in general, bass sounds ridiculously round but edgy in a good way. Good countermelodies all around, clever takes on the source. Did I mention the organ is a stroke of genius? The organ is a stroke of genius. I thought the drums felt a bit in another space or at least a bit too forward in the mix but that's no big deal. The faster ride sequencing is semi-awkward but I can live with it. Overall this is quite the nice track, surprising direction from you but very enjoyable! You go girl! YES
  10. A bloody merry christmas to all of you!
  11. I'm familiar with Kaiba but have yet to see it. This is more inspired by Ott and some classic dub compilations I found at a library in Stockholm.
  12. Sextacular soundtrack and game. Do pick them up and give 'em a whirl!
  13. Happy day of birth to you, I got you some imaginary comics. They're awesome. Have fun today :roll:
  14. How did this thread turn into FL vs. Reason. Please don't?
  15. LRN2KEYBOARD LOLZ! I mainly use a MIDI controller but for editing my performances and sequencing a solo or something, Reason's piano roll is just fine. In any case, to me it's a vERY small piece of the puzzle and the modular and streamlined approach to everything is much, much, MUCH more important than how many clicks are required in the sequencer/mixer.
  16. Replacing the Reason section with Record would be dumb. Making it Reason & Record would be smarter. Reason is still WAY more widely used than Record. Also, I use only Reason+Record. Also, re: neblix question it's easy to do in Record. Each mixer channel has a separate out so you can pull a signal straight from a channel and route it into whatever. Also re: neblix question. It's as easy as creating sub-mixers. If you want to mix something before routing it to your main mixer, create a mixer for it. It's not at all annoying and way more flexible than said "just click a button". Why? Because you can route your kick through distortion, then a mixer and add some delay, then through a filter, then to another mixer and blend it with another kick, then that mixer two a drum kit mixer where you apply some room reverb to everything, then to a compressor+EQ, then to the main mixer, then to the mastering. You can route whatever into whatever. You can have your kickdrum signal control the FM modulation of a Thor synth patch. THAT's something, eh? And the reason some might say Reason is "easy" is because it's very logical. If you want to route audio somewhere you literally route audio somewhere. If you have ANY experience with hardware, that is a big difference. Beyond that Reason+Record are built by one team with the same design goals. This means everything works seamlessly, everything hooks into everything and your devices are much less stand-alone plug-ins but building blocks that you can use in SO many different ways. For example the Scream distortion also happens to work as an envelope follower and the RV-7000 reverb can be used as a gate. etc. You misunderstood him. The Reason (only, not Record) mixer IS NOT that good. No phase inversion, no gain knob, two-band EQ, tiny little level fader, only four AUXs and no audio-out on separate mixer channels, requiring some work-around and more mixer instances that should be necessary. Record fixed all this though. Saying the Reason mixer is one of the best (which you shaun didn't, but others did) is a bit narrow-minded.
  17. Fuckawesome game but I feel I don't have the patience to play it for some reason. Still, one of the best run-around-and-battle games.
  18. Also Steve Reich, just because you can. Also , , , etc.
  19. Oh and the unofficial #propellerhead IRC channel is also on esper.net, for people who use Reason/Record etc.
  20. Me neither really. It's just mastered now. Felt good to caps RE-VOTE
