  1. Welcome to OCR, glad you enjoyed the panel. I moved your thread to Requests because that's where it belongs. Also, it might help if you provide more details as to how these musicians are supposed to collaborate. I mean it sounds like you're looking for band members, but you haven't even provided a location.
  2. No, there isn't. Here's why.
  3. It also stands for Dancing Nitro Fairweather. What's your point?
  4. It's probably a better idea for you to actually post some details about what you're trying to do instead of just a title.
  5. Speaking of Spies, here's a little story. Last night we were playing Dustbowl, and in the third round we (BLU) took the first point, so everyone fell back to the second point. You guys probably know that RED engies usually hide a teleporter in that little room that leads to their spawn so that they can still get to the first point after the spawn door locks. Usually a BLU demo will go up there and get rid of that crap, but I guess none of our demos decided to check. So everyone (RED and BLU) was pretty much concentrating on that second point, and I got killed and respawned back at the BLU spawn. Everyone knows I almost always play Pyro, and whenever the coast is clear I like to fire off my flare gun for fun/target practice. We've got no teleporter, so I'm making my way to the second point and I decided--on a whim--to shoot a flare into that room that leads to the RED spawn. All of the sudden, someone lights up. I hit a cloaked RED spy. I had no idea he was there. I quickly backburnered him as he ran away and then starting laughing my ass off.
  6. I've been noticing lately that people have been posting YouTube links in the WIP forum to share their music, creating a quick video with the song in it. The problem with this is that sometimes YouTube will downgrade the quality of your audio and make it sound lo-fi and muffled. Mixers also using MySpace can be a problem: MySpace's flash player sometimes recompresses the audio and adds artifacts. It also requires registration for downloads. I want to stress the fact that it's always best to post an actual audio file (preferably MP3) of your remix that people can download and listen to. This allows the people giving feedback to hear an accurate render of your song and pick out any production issues that might be present without worrying about whether or not it's just YouTube or MySpace that's responsible for the crappy sound. There are a lot of options available for music file hosting that don't require the listener to register. Here's two:" FireSlash's WIP Uploader http://ocrwip.fireslash.net/ FireSlash wrote up a little uploader script where you can temporarily house your works-in-progress. There's even a nifty little flash player for the files. Tindeck http://www.tindeck.com/ Allows both downloading and streaming, as well as download stats and other stuff. I don't use it myself, but other people swear by it. If any other frequent WIP posters have some good suggestions for WIP-hosting sites, please post in this thread following the simple format laid out above. Sites that don't require the listener to register are preferred. Thanks, and happy mixing.
  7. After my own mix for the project, this was definitely my favorite. Seriously though, this was an amazing piece of work; Xenosphere is one of my fave mixes too, and this really captures the feel of that track. Amazing work.
  8. You guys should really contribute to the community and do some game remixes before asking for support from here. :\ edit: keep in mind I'm not trying to be rude or anything
  9. I've never been a fan of the DKC games.
  10. Like I said in your other thread, you should really post an MP3 or something for people to listen to. YouTube sound quality gets degraded, so its difficult to tell if mastering issues are inherent in the mix, or if it's just a result of YouTube being crappy. There are a lot of places you can use for hosting music files. I recommend Tindeck or Pownce.
  11. Sakuraba wrote some great tunes. So great that he uses them over and over again in every game he scores.
  12. This kind of stuff belongs in the Non-Remixes forum.
  13. A thread about a band doesn't belong in Offtop. Moved.
  14. To make Dark Knight seem even better.
  15. Great for OCR, great for the U of M, and great for Paul Levasseur!! Just wanna mention though: you can comment on how great an event this is for OCR in this thread, but please post your reviews of the piece itself in the ReMix's review thread. It's better to keep it all in one place.
  16. To be fair to Carrey, he did a great job with the role he was given. It's just that that role wasn't The Riddler.
  17. Huntress anyone?!?!?!?! Only partially joking, actually. Read Huntress: Year One, the 6-issue mini that just concluded. The character would actually work quite well in Nolan & Goyer's Bat-verse.
  18. F10 quits the game. Don't be a dick. Yeah, we don't mind newbies at all. Just make sure you mention that you're a newb to your team and there shouldn't be a problem.
  19. You got a lotta guts comin' here, after what you pulled.
  20. Yeah, render to wave and then use LAME with the RazorLAME front-end. You can set up your encoding options. VBR with a lower upper-limit helps with filesize; set that to like 192 and you'll shave off quite a bit. Also, this doesn't belong in Tutorials and Guides; it's just a question. Moved.
