  1. Hey we discussed my track being lost in its state due to broken laptops.

    Shall I import the mp3 I have and export it as a wav and send it to you?

    That sounds counterintuitive, is it my only option? Seems so.

    That is assuming, it is up to the standard. Is it?

    As altercations simply can't happen at this stage.

    So, I assume you (Fishy) are asking for .wavs to make the flac and/or physical CD copies. But for the mp3 version of the song you should use Calum's mp3 if at all possible rather than going mp3 -> wav -> mp3, since that would reduce the quality of the final encoding.

  2. This is no knock against the remixers involved in the project, but FF V has always been my least-favorite of Uematsu's post-NES FF soundtracks by a pretty big margin. So these remixes had a steep hill to climb to get me to like them. And... they're partially successful. While I don't like these tracks as much as VotL, I would say they're at least on par with the FF IV project.

    Sixto's opener has great energy and arrangement, but there's something about the production that makes my ears feel like they're ringing... I suspect this has to do with either compression or possibly a low-pass filter? FWIW I'm listening to this on Sennheiser HD280 Pro's.

    Gentle Fist and Healer's Touch are my other favorites from this release.

  3. The sparseness is part of the intended effect. However, once Willrock adds his stuff, I'm fairly certain it will sound less sparse. Could you give me the times that you feel it is, just so I can check for myself? Thanks very much!

    After listening to it some more, I think what I'm missing is bass. My ears kept expecting some kind of bass to kick in when you were adding new voices early on (especially at :29 and :43). But, maybe you don't want that!

  4. Doing that is extremely unhealthy and I've got a birthday party to go to. But good luck to everyone who's doing it. I'll eat enough for all of you. :-)

    Fasting from food for a day isn't unhealthy unless you have hypoglycemia or something like that. Fasting from water for a day sounds pretty unhealthy to me, though... I couldn't do it, at least, since I had a kidney transplant and dehydration is very hard on your kidneys.

  5. Stevo: I've been trying to find some piano/orchestral specialists but with little luck so far. Here's hoping.

    If you have any ideas about people to ask - that is something you can certainly suggest and I'll see if I can convince 'em. If there's one thing I do want to hear it's who the listeners would like to hear more of.

    Alright, here's a topic I have lots of opinions on!

    BogusRed is a piano specialist and she had my favorite track on the FF4 project, it'd be awesome to get a song from her.

    Patrick Burns was great on SMB, I'd like to hear more of his stuff.

    Taucer's already on the project, but the more tracks by him, the better. Same with djp.

    If you could somehow get McVaffe, that would be awesome. More realistically, I like Ziwtra's stuff pretty well and he did an FF8 remix not long ago.
