  1. http://soundcloud.com/itstartsatdusk Oh, the obscurity!
  2. CURRENT VERSION: http://soundcloud.com/itstartsatdusk/where-it-all-began-super-shoes/s-681HG ---------------------------------------------------------------- It's been a while since Generation Gap released, and after mulling it over for a while, I decided I might submit the Green Hill Zone remix from it. Source: Remix: http://soundcloud.com/itstartsatdusk/where-it-all-began-sonic-1 Crits away!
  3. Well, if it's anything like the press beta, it'll be a weekend of keeping quiet until the NDA lifts on the following Monday.
  4. Seriously considering shirking some of my current responsibilities and making a quick mix for this one.
  5. I used to do something similar, creating my drum tracks in FL Studio and doing everything else in Audacity, but I found my workflow improved significantly when I started doing everything in FL Studio. Since Cubase is a clear preference for you, you might wanna try figuring out a way to do your drum tracks in that program. It can make a world of difference in workflow to not have to switch between two programs for a single track.
  6. lol That'd mean it's out now. XD They're doing press beta events this month, then opening that beta up to more people in March and April. We're probably looking at a May/June release. But it's definitely releasing this year. It's gonna be a very non-productive year for me indeed.
  7. Bumpalumpin' this because I don't think this game is getting the hype it deserves. Likely due to people not knowing how ambitiously awesome ANet's trying to make this game. So the cure for that, information: http://www.guildwars2guru.com/forum/guild-wars-2-mass-info-t25557.html?t=25557
  8. This thread seems be be lacking some Nekofrog. I'm pretty sure he quad-tracks his rhythms.
  9. http://youtu.be/WWU05eLs8EY Hopefully this convinces some people to collab with this guy. He's awesome.
  10. This could be the case. I've personally never tried it, but a lot of notable metal artists swear by that pedal. I recommend you give both of 'em a try at Guitar Center or something, Sonic. I would have done the same, but I don't play live anymore.
  11. Boss NS-2. Best noise gate pedal I've ever used.
  12. I don't even do much editing in Edison tbh. Most of my editing occurs on the playlist itself. What I do is just kind of another way of doing what Neblix does, just with a bit more setup and the advantage of looping a section of the track and doing multiple takes without having to click anything while I'm playing. That and the whole not saving the audio until I drag it onto the playlist, which saves a lot of HDD space when you're doing music like I do that's almost entirely audio tracks. Well, he's half-right. Recording directly into the playlist like he described is about as easy as my setup. And that works great if you're just recording something here and there. But switching over to Edison and handling all your tracking there for songs that are pretty much all recorded audio is just easier to work with in my experience. He's just unfamiliar with how I handle it is all, so he doesn't know exactly how quick and easy it is to do once you have it all set up.
  13. Dragging it from Edison to the playlist actually auto-saves it as "Dragged sample #" in your sliced beats folder or your whatever folder your current project is set to in Project General Settings and sets it to wherever you dragged it to on the playlist. It's actually way quick. I've never had to do all those steps.
  14. I'm not sure how you'd set up whatever software would have come with the FastTrack (I use a POD Studio Pro UX1), but once have your processed signal, it should be assigned to sends. Usually it's sends 1 and 2. Figure that out from the manual or something. Pop open FL Studio, hit Options -> Audio settings, and select your FastTrack from the drop-down menu at the top. I record using Edison. You'll want to set a mixer track's input to "Send 1 - Send 2", and open Edison as an effect on that channel. Bring up the Edison window, hit record, play, stop recording when you're done. Then just click and hold the Drag button and bring it into FL Studio's playlist; it's the second button from the right. Usually, I set Edison to record on play, so it snaps to grid correctly, but if your comp's a bit on the weak side, you might not be able to set your buffers low enough to do that. I also usually mute my Recording channel in FL Studio because the phasing from the slight latency screws me up a bit, but isn't noticeable in the final unless I have to boost my buffers to 256 or higher. Of course, there are other ways to track guitar in FL Studio, like using its built in recorder, but I found Edison to be the quickest, easiest, and most useful option.
  15. From what I hear, CaS only has about 65% unlocked right off the bat. You'll stop unlocking stuff for it when you hit lvl 50 according to the strategy guide. There's quite a bit to unlock while leveling up.
  16. Can I get a whitelist for the OCR server? Never played Minecraft multiplayer, so this server's as good as any to start out with. Username's itstartsatdusk.
  17. For the most part, it's very inspiration-based. If I hear a source, or remember one, I may one day get an idea in my head of how I'd want a remix of it to sound. It happens kind of randomly. Once I got that down, I don't work on the remix right away. I learn the song first. I pop it up on YouTube, or from my collection, plug in my guitar, and learn all of it. Then, I start experimenting while the song is played. This leads to even more ideas for interpretation. After that, I start making the actual remix. I pop open FL Studio and start moving through the track, section by section, until I have the entire thing written. I never focus on production quality and fine-tuning until the entire composition is done. After that, I work on mixing and mastering, maybe change a few things here or there to make the song good, and call it.
  18. If you guys do this, I'm in. Or Chicago. Maybe. My girlfriend's been dying to go there for a while now. That's quite the trip for me, though.
