Tweek is pretty much right for what I'm going for here. Everything is meant to be subtle, and nothing more then the icing on the cake to what will hopefully be a lovely smooth vocal if I can find one. I also wanted to keep it to just the 4 piece, I was even considering taking out the guitar. I'm going for the feel of your average Diana Krall song.

Just looking at that damn llama worm makes me want to throw it at someone. It makes me so angry for absolutely no reason. WHY!?

This is one of the most terrifying things to look at ever...

Smash bros melee is like my favourite gayme evar. You're going down OA.

My thoughts: Theory is in no way a necessity for making good music, but it can help you understand what makes something sound the way it does. Knowing theory can help you realise what you hear in your head easier and it can help you figure out whats not right about what you've done. Knowing the basics can also help you move out of your comfort zone more easily. I don't know shit about jazz, but I know how to construct and resolve inverted 7th chords thanks to the 4-part harmony I took at school, and as 7ths and other chords extensions are one of the flavours of jazz, it resulted in the not totally crap jazz wip in the wip forum. Basically, it comes in handy, and it helps you to articulate what you want to achieve to other people and it helps them explain stuff that you want to know to you. Long story short, learn it.

If you really can't find some permanant hosting solution, you can attach it to the sub e-mail. In all honesty, if you've just downloaded the demo and have never used FL before, unless you're some kind of ultra musical and technical genious I don't suppose theres much point in submitting it. Theres a 99% chance you'll get a form rejection, but I may be wrong, I haven't heard it yet. If you're serious about remixing, demos won't do. Get yer wallet out and learn whatever you get inside out. Theres plenty of guides in these forums on budget remixing.

Not really metal but yay me: http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR01655/

I guess I kind of shot myself in the foot by using a studio recording as a mixing reference for a live sound. I'll try out a narrower stereo field in the next version.

I'm a big fan of the nice simple jazz format, and if there ever was a game built for jazz it was silicon valley. Basically I'm trying to make it sound like a live quartet. I'm hoping to get a smooth vocalist to sing me some meolides, and apart from that a solo on the 12-bar for each instrument, as is the norm.

hah, genious.

zyko speaks truth. I had a bad week once where I just couldn't get this damn buzz to go away, and I found out that as soon as i turned off my TV which was only on standby 6 feet away, i got perfect sound. You just really need to be aware of your surroundings and what can interfere.

You rang?

Or you can pay $50 and I'll play it...

If thats true they can go fuck themselves. I'm sick to shit of waiting for games longer then I have to. UT3 shipping to europe 5 days after everywhere else, and yet I have to wait 5 months for brawl. Shit, I had to wait like 8 months for FF12. Bull.

Posting a guide on how to remix would essential be how to make music, which is an horrendous question considering there are a million different ways to approach music, entirely dependant on what kind of music you want to make. Better questions to be asking: 1. I like X Remix, what sort of approach would best be used to learn to make this kind of music? 2. I'm having X problem, what can I do to improve in this area or what kind of work-arounds are there? 3. Where can I find good tutorials for X program? Also, this forum is only for guides that you've written, not for asking unspecific questions or requesting an unspecific guide. If you've only spent 5 hours in reaper then you really haven't done any research whatsoever into general music-making, there are thousands of tutorials on the internet that you could be reading now.

Happy birfdae foo. Make more techno.

Oh sheet, I've lost track of time somewhat and been making shtty FF medleys instead. This is my priority now, d/w.

Small update: http://fishy.escariot.net/public/FF8%20FB%20v1.1.mp3 The next one will be huge.

lol, I love sweeping generalizations. All you had to do was put the word 'some' in between the words 'consider' and 'metal' and you could have gotten away with that statement.

Stay tuned, been working on something using these for a while now.

This is the other reason I kept it. This is inevitably going to end up seeming medley-ish, so I need to change t up however I can.

Spot on. Probably wrong musical explanation: I made up that lower riff and the only way it would fit was to sharpen the 6th on the main riff, turning it from Ab minor into Dorian. I quite like the change personally, although it seems t be grinding with some people on irc aswell. I'll keep it until I get death threats.

It's been too long since I made something that wasn't intended for project whoring. This is my first proper remix attempt using Logic Studio, but I'm already loving it. Decided to make an epic FF8 mash. Yes I'm a fanboy, no I don't care. If you have any requests of moar themes for this go right ahead. I'm totally winging it 8 bars at a time so plenty of room to add shit. http://fishy.escariot.net/public/FF8%20FB%20v1.2.mp3 Just so you know I'm not interested in production feedback yet, because I haven't done anything at all except put a limiter on it. I'm gonna update this every few days or so until its done.

Wes speaks truth. I'd rather spend my time enjoying my ps3 then defending my friends onsloughts about why their hax boxes are better.

Agreed, sounds like a great tribute, but no selly. I'd pitch in for this.
