I can think of lots of subjects more boring than music theory. Aside from that, even the most "boring" subject can be presented in a fun and interesting way.

I'd be interested in a tutorial series on basic music theory and how it applies to VGM. I believe Abadoss mentioned something like this in the last Talkback (if I remember correctly). I'm sure it could be done in a way that isn't boring.

Sure, I agree. Unless I'm mistaken, I remember people talking about what you brought up, on OCR anyway. Also, I hesitate to label these points the "right" things. The "right" things depends on who you ask.

I'm curious, what are the "right" things to talk about?

@HobaKa, you swapped your votes for Beatrix vs. Kain and Lenna vs. Locke. Tuberz belongs in Lenna vs. Locke, avaris belongs in Beatrix vs. Kain. @Brandon, any reason why you made a voting thread for Hiryuu vs. Strago? Or did you make all the threads before the entries came in?

Unless I'm mistaken, I'm pretty sure everyone votes for both brackets. EDIT: Also, anyone can join the group.

Mine has been sent! I think my remix turned out fairly descent. Probably not enough to beat avaris, but still fun to make. By the way, nice signature fix, Brandon!

I'll be finishing my remix tomorrow, that should give me plenty of time.

Happy happy happy birthday!

I finally came up with something that's sounding descent after several failed ideas.

Pretty standard trance, but that's not a problem for me. Fun and groovy remix you guys put together! I'm really enjoying the vocals, well done Deia! @Thin Crust: Wow, really? You only came here to say that? Man is that sad.

Happy birthday Sixto!

"Works to my advantage too" is what I would say if I knew enough about theory to put that information to use. EDIT: Well...that's not entirely true. It does help me a little bit.

Alright, I'm in. I'll post some gift ideas a little later.

The only good thing about being unemployed...I get plenty of music time. Though I do have to spend some time job searching, and I plan to start making an Android app.

Yeah, good luck to you as well. I'm looking forward to all the music that'll come out of this compo.

I'm in the same boat, I face an uphill battle. Going out with a bang is also my plan. @Avaris, are you still using as your source?

I use a template in FL Studio that Neblix made a while ago. It sets up channels for instruments and drum samples, and routes them to a seperate track on the mixer. The EQ plugin is ready to go on each track, and the template sets up a drum bus. The other thing I like about Neblix's template is that it sets up MIDI Out channels for Kontakt, really useful. Having a template speeds up my workflow, wasting less time on setup. I'm sure other DAW's have the ability to save templates as well.

Happy birthday!

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, a bit tall.

Thanks for the sig Sir Strader!

It's in the same doc as the list of themes, click the roster tab.

I know you guys are in the process of printing the physical albums, I'm wondering if the album is a "while supplies last" type of thing. Or will I be able to pick one up at any time?
