hahah, you called the original primitive? how stupid a comment... listening.... Hahaha, that's even funnier is listening to your version in comparison. So far there's nothing but filtered bullshit and badly mixed beats. I have no idea how this song got 4 pages of replies, but I can assure you, this sucks. Here's why: - No sense of anything musical. - Rhythmic songs are great, when they keep an interesting rhythm. - Extremely over compressed, it hurts to listen to. - Lacks composition. - Lacks melodic structure. - Lacks style and originality. - Simply sounds bad. - Too bland and simple, there's nothing interesting going on. - SOUNDS BAD! You fail. This is hands down the WORST Killer Instinct remix I've ever heard, you should be ashamed. Also, do some research before you post bullshit, because that "cover" you posted is the original song from the arcade version, combined with the character select theme that was used on the "Killer Cuts" CD that came with the SNES version. The SNES music is badly ported from the arcade (though still sounds better than yours).

OCRA-0009 - Final Fantasy VII: Voices of the Lifestream
SnappleMan replied to zircon's topic in Album Reviews & Comments
hahaha, your signature sucks -
This thing STILL isn't done? I don't think anyone cares at this point...
-
hahaha, picky Is there a way I can ignore posts by a user? If so, GOODBYE BLUEFOX!
-
The point is that you just copy and paste text without knowing anything about it. And half the time you paste shit that nobody cares about. I don't know if you're trying to appear intelligent or what, but it's failing.

Bluefox, once again, stop pretending like you know what you're talking about... Anyway, I use Dunlop Jazz III picks primarily, I also use Dunlop Tortex of varying thickness once in a while, and my favourite pick would have to be my Cymbolic Brass pick (made of brass...). The brass pick is really interesting and gives a great sounding character to anything you play with it, it's hard to get used to at first, but I really like it now.

Hah, this caught me by surprise. I got an email from OCR being all "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!" I don't care if it was automated, it made me happy! Also, thank you, my friends! <3

There should be a rule against people posting huge blocks of pasted text which they found on some random website and they don't have a clue what it means. Bluefox, I'm talking to you. Anyway, this is cool stuff. I look forward to trying it out. Not sure if it would be worth it for transcribing as much as changing existing recordings I've made and finally using some interesting loop and phrase libraries.

SSB Brawl Main Theme WIP - orchestral breaks/big beat
SnappleMan replied to Sole Signal's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
The way I see it, the guitar isn't performing any role that a synth couldn't play. Find yourself a nice synth patch that has a bit of depth and flavour (maybe very slight/slow flanging, light distortion, light delay), and that should instantly spice you up. -
Can we hold a poll to ban Nicholestien? If we get an overwhelming number of votes, the forum staff might listen!

OCR01692 - Metroid "Cranial Syphon [Kay-raid]"
SnappleMan replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
The awesomeness of this song keeps my anus from performing properly, hence I shat. Multiple times over. -
I'm stuck with Garageband. Ouch?
SnappleMan replied to Overflow's topic in Music Composition & Production
If you're student you can also get Cubase Studio 4 for about $150-200. That comes with both Mac and PC versions, and it's full featured, unlike Logic Express. -
These days all mic preamps are built to support both, guitars and mics. I used a tube preamp for some time, and I really liked it. Going 12AX7->12AX7->EL84 will not sound like you're hoping it would. They're not part of the same circuit, and so they work independently, what you want is to mod the amp for another 12AX7 tube, then they work in series or parallel and they thicken up the sound. Adding the preamp will only give you a gain boost.

Wrong song man, you're thinking of The Doomsday (also on Project Chaos). -
SSB Brawl Main Theme WIP - orchestral breaks/big beat
SnappleMan replied to Sole Signal's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
I think you people are blinded by the OMG BRAWL OMGGOMGOMGOMGOMGOGM The fake guitar gives away any illusion of a performance. The orchestral samples are too slow on the attack and they sound very out of place with the beat because they're mixed very poorly. The beat itself is decent but too repetitive and doesn't go anywhere. The concert bass drum at the end sounds even more out of place in this. The bass is good, I like the bass. Overall this sounds very disjointed and awkward. It's too early to judge the quality of your arrangement (so far it's pretty boring and depressing sounding) but I say keep working on this and it should turn into a good song. -

Express Slot Sound Cards For Notebooks
SnappleMan replied to Faustt's topic in Music Composition & Production
USB is not a good way to go for mobile pro audio. If your PC has a firewire port, then get a firewire device, if not, get a firewire adapter for your Express Card slot. Express Card soundcards will happen someday, but for now there's only one that I know of, and it costs over $1000... -
And then realize you've wasted your money because you can't write for one.

YOU JUST FUCKING DIED! STFU is tits.

Yes, cutting frequencies is what you need to do, but also take into account all the effects that you're using. Reverbs can very quickly drown a track in a heavy, muddy frequency stew. Always check the EQ levels of the reverb, use the high pass and low pass filters to only keep the reverb frequency you want. Also, you said that you add distortion, this completely fills up the spectrum. Distorting a B3 organ and then playing a full chord will literally eat up your entire bandwidth. Your goal in mixing a song should be to find and isolate the sweet spots of all your tracks with as little frequency crossover as possible, of course, this doesn't mean brick-wall everything till it's separate, just make sure you familiarize yourself with the sounds you're working with and don't overlook all the frequency boosts that the effects you're using bring to the mix.

Speak for yourself, spanky. I play for real. \m/

It's true that I'm in love with you, and even in my shame you wipe away the imperfections and take away all pain. You wrap your loving arms around this wretched thing called "me." Your love is all I'll ever need; Your love has set me free.
-
Technically that's not true. I bring forth the case of Peter Quistgard.
