    HAPPY 25th BIRTHDAY, OC ReMix!

    in Announcements

    Posted

    Congratulations! 

    I missed an epochal event( 

    I joined OCR sometime in 2010. It was an unexpected discovery!

    In fact, I got access to the Internet at the end of 2009 (I live in a village).

    The first thing I started looking for on the Internet was music.. I came across this place through tindeck when I was looking for something like covers for Contra Hard Corps. And Google gave me an artist like "Death by spoon" (AMT).

    My search led me here. What I found here blew my mind. I didn't even imagine that such a place was possible. Ironically, at that time I didn't find any CHC remixes on OCR, but I did find Sixto sounds, goat, Snappleman, lvl 99 and many others (sorry if I didn't mention you).

    I've learned a lot here. I'm thankful to this place and people who helped me in advice and direction(Rozovian is the best BOSS ever!)

    Of course, I had some complaints. Something I still don't understand here) But I liked this place and I hope to come back to this stream..

    Thank YOU OCR PEOPLE!

     

    Mixing With Left And Right Panned Guitars?

    As always Rozo is the master!

    Just want to clarify something.

    Panning hard/soft/fantastic, record/write 2-100 different tracks, doesn't necessary makes your gtrs "ring out clearly". 

    Actually you can make one single guitar track sound "ring out clearly".

    Synth/samples stuff works in a different way, they sounds "ring out clearly" from the begining.

    This makes sense if we remember the question: " both in stereo and mono?"

    All you need is to focus at amp and cabinet settings, but don't forget about drums and bass. The trick is that the bass and drums make ~30% of your guitar sound.

    In other words, if bass sounding doesn't fit the gtr, so as and drums, you'll have a disbalance in your soundscape. Buried gtrs/bass/drums or other unpleasant stuff.

    Sorry for my english, if i said something wierd.

    So, my question:

    What do you do to get both left and right panned guitars to ring out clearly, both in stereo and mono?

    Your question is too wide. There is a billions ways to make billions different sounds. It all deppends of what you need right now.

    Mostly I use 2-4 rhythms at one time, hard panned and 2 amp with 2 cabinets. 

    Left - amp1+cab1 

    Left -  amp1+cab2

    Right - amp2+cab1

    Right - amp2+cab2

    Also I use 3 rhythms. 2 hard panned and 1 at center. Some times I use 6-8 rhythms.. It's endless thing.

    Using same amp+cab for each gtr make your guitar sounds more upfront and "clear", but you'll lose some character. 

    EQ is a great thing, but me personaly use only hipass at 100 Hz and -2 db somewhere 400-800Hz. 

    Use Exciter or tape recorder or even compressor... As I said, it's endless.

    After all you'll understand that everything depends of drums and bass.

    Check this at first https://ocremix.org/info/Frequently_Asked_Questions

    And https://ocremix.org/community/forum/14-help-newbies/

    I'd recommend you to lurk around the forums to understand the structure. It's pretty simple. 

    To contact people use PMs in your or their profile. This system is kinda wierd to me, cause i can't see users list. But I didn't search well.

    Not sure djp reply to you. He's a big and busy star.

    Also some forums has a "how to use" tread. Other has a description. Work shop forum(how to use):

    Hello. Welcome to OCR.

    I've checked your posts and I have to say that non of them had a ReMix.

    You just take a posted ReMix and record your vox. Not sure it counts as a remix. I think you shuold contact the artists who made these remixes before call their work your remixes

    There is not much to say, cause there is no music you made.

    Correct me somebody if I'm wrong please
