  1. If there is a limiter on the master, you are using the template.
  2. TLs-Pocket Limiter > FL Limiter Also, the gain is up too high on the Limiter template. I only use FL Limiter for its great side chaining.
  3. Holy crap, Meteo, thanks. This makes us even. But it's still... uh... the "right thing to do" if you review my album. Somehow. Not really. Only if you want to.
  4. I'm not sure any labels wanna pick up 15 year old kids (I'm no Justin Bieber, I concentrate on music, not image). 0_o But I'll give that a shot too. Never thought of that, I was always on the assumption that DIY is best as far as easy management.
  5. Because you are already famous. *cough*onocr*cough*
  6. Facebook, getting friends to repost on their walls, twitter feeds, posting a thread on OCR (should net more than 10 people to at least read about it), getting people to do reviews (especially the people who have blogs that people read where all they do is review stuff), YouTube. Getting friends to repost on facebook walls seems like a great tool. Especially because people have 500 friends on facebook.
  7. Looks like I'll have something to do next week Friday night.
  8. Try playing it at a ridiculously low size. I did it on PSP, managed to beat the game.
  9. It's like batch converting with VST's. Yeah?
  10. Not anything recent Pendulum. Too loud.
  11. Experience doesn't always sound good. People don't care about if the guy who mastered it was an experienced professional, and that's not even close to what you can call a factor in the enjoyability of the music. It seems you missed the point of my post. Professionals don't all master the same way. Some do it in a way that certain people don't like. I don't give a damn if someone has 10 years of production experience. If he mastered something badly, it's not "secretly good and I just don't know it because I'm not a pro". It'll be good to some people because that's what they like. Anyways, I like the mastering on Antigravity and Fittest - OST.
  12. Do it your OWN way, because you have experience. There are professionals who do mastering that people don't like, and there are professionals who do mastering that everyone likes. There's no correct method that professionals use that is a gigantic secret to hobbyists.
  13. Street Fighter 3 Online. Parry trials. Nuff said.
  14. Underground theme would like to have a word with you.
  15. Try lowering the volume. I think Windows Media Player has a limiter, whereas youtube doesn't.
  16. I never thought to check ThaSauce because I thought it was an OCR thing. Cool beans, so it looks like this didn't happen as smoothly as expected but I'll still do the track if my challenger still wants it remixed. I'm not going to lie and say I wasn't waiting for an official start, but I'm not blaming Rama/starla for that.
  17. It's more to see if there's something up with his installation.
  18. Oh yeah, def. I have a couple guys wanting to do reviews of it when I'm done.
  19. I'm not gonna print CD's yet. I'll see if people like it after promotion first.
  20. Forget everything I just said. http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/57754?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+SlickdealsnetFP+%28SlickDeals.net+Frontpage%29
  21. What I'm saying is, deal with the cons of FL 10 because they'll be fixed and even if they wouldn't the pros outweigh the cons. One of these pros is possibly making it so your audio drivers don't crash. Another pro is telling you if your FL9 installation is making your audio drivers crash.
  22. By my own failure to sensibly plan for this, I'm going to resign. For some reason I thought the thread title being Phase One as well as the first post meant that Phase 2 had not started yet. I was also sure the due date was September 12th. I can't read. But whoever challenged me to do that song, if you still really want me to do it, I'll do it. PM me later and remind me.
  23. This is the most awesome advice I have seen given by someone with a Sonic The Hedgehog forum avatar. Macs are crap for budget. C R A P . You want a machine with a good processor, that's where the bulk of your music stuff is going to go for your computer to take the stuff you write into your DAW all the way to your soundcard (and out to speakers). Video card is not important. At all. You'll do fine with the graphics processor inside the Core i5 or Core i7 sandy bridge processors. If you want a desktop powerhouse for your budget, contact "prophetik" on the forums for a recommendation, and he'll build it for you for cheaper than a retailer if you choose to request that. (PM him). If he doesn't respond, ask me, though I can't build one for you. You'll have to find someone you know who can interpret my recommendation and act on it. PM me if you're still interested. I can give a general recommendation with a few specific parts right now, but for all specific parts we need to talk one on one (I would strongly recommend asking prophetik instead if he is available): -Core i5-2500k $220 (PROCESSOR) -Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3H motherboard ~$130 (MOTHERBOARD) -16GB RAM DDR3 ~$80 (the market for these is dropping insanely, so they're super cheap) (RAM) -500W Power Supply ~$60-70 (POWER SUPPLY) -1TB HDD (more or less if you so desire) $90 (HARD DRIVE) -a dvd drive $20 (DVD) -obviously a chassis like an Antec 300 ~$60 (CASE) -a nice HD monitor ~$150 (MONITOR) -Windows 7 $100 (OS) -Keyboard and Mouse (simple) ~$30-40 (KB&M) Puts you at $960, roughly. Give or take. You can figure that out with whoever is giving you your part recommendations. If you want a pre-built system, you'll have to sacrifice some power to stay in your budget. Here are the specs of my machine I put together. Keep in mind, this price is not including Windows, and heavy deal surfing. $989 Intel Core i7-2600 G.Skill Sniper 8GB DDR3 RAM EVGA GTX 460 1GB Western Digital Caviar Black 640GB HDD Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3 Cooler Master Hyper 212+ CPU Cooler Cooler Master Storm Scout Chassis ASUS 21.5" HDMI Ultra-Slim Monitor LG 24X DVD Drive OCZ ModXStream Pro 600w PSU
  24. Hey guys, I'm in the midst of writing a breakbeat electronica album (of various tempos and styles including DnB to more jazzy funk-ish) and I realized I don't really have a clue what kind of formalities to take care of outside of album artwork and mastering and making sure songs are consistent. Is it really as easy as posting the tracks on Bandcamp or is there more to it?
