So I am a bit confused about this whole thing. The forum this sticky is in--is it the WIP:O forum or what? Also I can't find this other C-Disc forum so I'm confused what that is. Is the C-Disc forum hidden to non-posted remixers? Because I can't find it. I'm just confused about where to post an original mix that I made to get feedback on it. If this forum is the C-Disc forum then I'm obviously not supposed to put it here.

Ah, thank you. That helps a lot.

Thanks, I'll need it. Right now the mix is about 55% done by my estimation, which is pretty good considering I've only done five sessions working on it straight, each one about four hours. Considering I began with no idea how to use FL Studio and that this is my first real mix, it doesn't sound half bad. Hopefully the judges will agree...

I was reading your guide #3 on synthesizers and I had a question about a phrase you mentioned on there...
EXAMPLE 1 - SYNTH LEAD
http://www.zirconstudios.com/Synth%20Example%201.mp3
Here's an example of a simple synth lead. What makes it a lead? Well.. * The amplitude envelope. Short attack, no release, high sustain.
* The filter. It's lowpass, because we don't want too much of the high stuff to be blasting our ears. Decently high saturation and resonance to make it have some substance.
* LFO 1 is pointing towards the filter. This makes the sound dynamic over time.
* Play mode is Legato with some basic portamento action. This makes the sound glide smoothly.
* Saw + Square waves with "Sync" on. Creates the basic timbre of the sound.
* A little bit of delay to make things interesting.
The tip "LFO 1 is pointing towards the filter"...I didn't know what this meant exactly. Perhaps you could elaborate? I would really appreciate it!

Well you guys certainly got me interested in hearing Fly Me to the Sunshine. You don't know where I could get my hands on a copy of that, do you?
Dafydd...interesting mix you posted. Don't worry, just because there are decent mixes already doesn't mean I'm going to give up on what I've got so far. I'm not so easily turned aside. I liked most of the mix you posted except the way they did the chorus...it just felt sort of anticlimax to me. I really want to make a mix that just totally blows the tune out of the water (no pun intended). I'm not saying that's something I'm capable of but I can sure try. Also I finally decided on a good title (not gonna spoil it for you).

Well, I've decided to do the mix myself. Partly because I'm tired of waiting, and partly because I like the Wave Man theme so much. And because I finally managed to obtain a version of FL Studio that is of some use to me. So look out OC ReMix, my Wave Man remix is on its way!
It may take me a month (as I'm in college right now, one senior class and three math classes and a class that was supposed to be a blowoff class but ended up being just as demanding as my others) but I will finish it eventually.
My main reason for posting this is a discussion of possible titles. To anyone reading this, I would appreciate any comments on what you think of these working titles:
A Sine of Trouble (cheesy I know, but the math reference is funny nevertheless)
A Sine of Parting
A Sine of Danger
Making a Splash
Feelin' the Vibes
Wave-o-rama
Lol, I think I'm going to stop now. Comments welcome...

That is just bizarre! And I agree completely, I would not want sound effects at all. At least not in the sense that you mean. I can understand if it's something like, you know, the mario mixes 8-bit Eighties or Underworld Rock. But a blatant use of otherwise-unnecessary random sound effects muddling up the great tune that is Wave Man? Not for me.
What do you make of the youtube videos with music from the Complete Works series? (I guess they're remakes of the original megaman games with new styled-up music) To me it sounds like on some of 'em they tried too hard, didn't put enough thought into it, or just plain screwed up the tune and made it sound awful by going in a direction the original didn't warrant. ?? Somehow it almost seems like a bummer that guys with Chinese names we can't even begin to pronounce have better skill at writing original tunes on an ancient NES soundboard than new composers/remixers at Nintendo nowdays have at remixing them. LOL. Thank goodness for OC ReMix cleaning up their mess...although not all of their stuff is bad, but gosh, compared to OC ReMix's standard tunes, it's terrible stuff.

I can't be the ONLY one who likes this classic NES game, especially the music. The little tune that played when you threw the audio casette objects was awesome, especially when it forced everyone to dance to it, then they would all chase you when it was over...good times, good times.
Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure should, I think, be remembered in the halls of OC ReMix if at least for the title screen song. That and the dance tune would be awesome as a remix. I can't remember much other music but the level tunes were pretty catchy too, I think.

This is probably going to sound odd now that this track, and the other MM6 mixes, are old news, but let's assume I just found out about this gem of a tune and go from there...
Finally! Someone did some good remixes of MM6 (my personal favorite of the series, possibly tied at 1st with MM2). I've been waiting for a long time for some (hint hint, other remixers, come on. Four out of eight bosses and no other themes covered yet...let's see some more mixes from this great game!)
Way to go Vurez. Awesome stuff, this. Matches Centaur's theme with a precision and uniqueness not often found in mega man music these days (with the exception of Passing of the Blue Crown).

Since I first heard it, this has been and will forever remain my favorite OC Remix ever. Thrilling, awe-inspiring, and amazing, that's all that can be said. zircon, us lesser mortals grovel at your musical feet...er...well that came out awkwardly.
-
Nice work, boys...I feel like my opinion has already been stated about a billion different ways already, so I'll just...
But damn this is good stuff. Already I feel a twitch as my hand involuntarily reaches for my USB controller. The mouse moves of its own accord and opens the NES emulator...what have you guys done to me?
You've made a mega man FREAK outta me.

I was about to post this request myself when I found it (I could die of not surprise). Wave man was and still is my absolute favorite mega man original tune (heck, it's one of my absolute favorite video game tunes) and I would bow down to any remixer who could do it the justice it deserves. Then again, it's such an awesome tune, it's not like it really needs remixed. But I've definitely thought about giving it a go myself and would be tickled to death if someone were to beat me to it, not to mention deeply in the attemptee's debt for life.

Lol, okay, okay. I figured that was a dumb question. Clearly I'm new here
Thanks for clearing things up.
