Slam dunk, IMO. I have no issues with arrangement content. Pipe Maze theme is prevalent and recognizable throughout. I can see how strict, notes-not-rests stopwatching would raise issues otherwise, but I don't subscribe to that method. I'm a huge fan of this remix. Absolutely killer. YES

Right now? In prep for release. It's being tagged, director comments are being written up, and Jose is working on a trailer.

Hey folks. Sorry for the false alarm earlier today with the April Fool's joke. Some people seem to be assuming that because we did a joke today about the album, this entire month of my saying that the album is done was just a lead up to the joke. If you know me and my opinions about April Fool's Day, you know that I have very strong opinions about doing any part of an A1 joke outside of April 1st. Rest assured, Water is done in terms of both music and album art. Speaking of album art, take a look at what we've got cooked up! And here's the tracklist! I've been working with @rnn who's our wonderfully talented album artist for For Everlasting Peace, Super Cartogrpahy Bros., and Apex 2015: This is the Moment, to completely revamp the visual look for The Fabled Warriors. Volume 2 is going to be a stepping off point for this series in terms of art. After Water is released, we're going to go back and redo the album art for Wind to match this new style; it'll feature Bartz on the cover against a "windy" backdrop and a wind-inspired circular pattern. The next three albums (Fire, Earth, and Dawn) will feature Faris, Galuf, and Krile. I want to thank @Otakatt and @Monobrow for their help with the original album art for Wind all those years ago. I had a specific idea for the series back then and we executed on it really well. But given some distance, I've decided I want to change up the look of the series and make things consistent throughout. I'm pretty excited. Anyway look for the real release of Water in the coming weeks. It's all coming together. All that's really left is some preparation stuff on OCR staff's side; trailer, comments, etc. Thanks for being patient.

If you've got a lot of friends on it it's pretty fun though.

That's fine.

We still have some time. NWM is at the end of April. Would like to get things done asap.

Assassin's Creed is going to be interesting because it's not going to be an adaptation of an existing game, but an in-universe entry to the franchise. I'm looking forward to it.

Hey Winning. I need you to do something for me. I need you to start making some music and posting those tracks in the "Post Your Remixes" forum. You're asking a ton of really general questions one after the other in this thread. What you need to do is actually start making music and posting those tracks in their own threads and start getting specific feedback about things you're trying to do. A lot of your questions are also really general. "How do I make dubstep?" "How do I use East West?" This thread was originally about Guitar Settings in FLStudio, but at this point you're just using it as a personal question dump. Stop asking questions and start making tracks. Post your tracks and get feedback. Ask specific questions about specific things you're doing in the tracks that you're working on. This is the best way to learn how to produce music.

This one's for your mom: the Layton Brothers Mystery Room soundtrack. I highly recommend checking out track 4, "Investigation."

You're probably better off asking Atlus about this.

Thanks Mirby for getting this project started, and thanks Brandon for picking this up. Glad to see this is still happening. Let me know if you need anything.

Donald was in the original comic book series that inspired Ducktales, Uncle Scrooge. The "Duck" comics have a very long history that predates the legendary TV show. The teaser art looks great; looks directly inspired by Carl Barks's art, especially Donald.

Guys, need to remind: if you're not a judge, please don't answer questions in this thread.

Looks cool.

Source is an option only admins have. We'll have a conversation about editing options next staff meeting, see what we can figure out.

Let's make sure we cover a female wrestler and have her as a Diva. Shanoa or Sonia Belmont or whoever.

Still wondering about this. If you're seeing DPC lag issues it might be result of NVidia's Powermizer messing with your audio; the symptoms are almost always clicking and popping in your audio. This is a known issue that sometimes crops up; just do a search for NVidia and DPC and you'll see a ton of people posting about this. There are tools available to disable Powermizer too.

DPC spikes? Do you have an NVIDIA graphics card, by any chance?

Snare and cymbal are totally on autopilot. Wish it weren't the case. Everything else is great. Love the expansion of the source material, and the guitar performance is solid. Eh. Really wish that percussion was less repetitive, but other stuff is too good to pass up. YES (Borderline)

Genius. Absolutely love the sound. Toms are killer. Absolutely feels like a montage from an 80s high school movie about a robotics club at Doctor Light High School getting ready to take on their archrivals at Albert Wily Prep. Gonna sign off on the arrangement here. Kris you wanna contact Coffee and see if we get get a fix on mastering? YES

Used the play this game a lot when I was a kid. Brings back memories. Pretty wild arrangement. Compression is definitely heavy, but I'm falling on the side where I don't think it's an issue. I kind of like this really smashed up sound in this piece. Pretty short but doesn't overstay its welcome. Manages to do a lot of things in such a short time. I'm digging it. YES

please call this album series GoodAss

Alright. I'm going to close this thread and allow MindWanderer to create a new one for the project. MW, it's up to you to find the necessary folks to make this a reality. I'm handing this off to you. Good luck, and keep me apprised of any interesting developments.

Don't overthink it. Each musician would be one of the arms. The idea of Final Fantasy's Gilgamesh having eight-arms is pretty iconic, and I really like the way "The Eight Arms of Gilgamesh" sounds.

There are one or two claims that are still being carried over. I'm going to only be doing one track each for the remaining three volumes (the prelude themes). So I guess I should start getting people for FIRE, but I'm not opening up the claims yet. I need to write up descriptions for the classes/characters so that people have something to work off of. But I do want to take this opportunity to put my plan for one of the tracks out there. FIRE will feature Gilgamesh as the enemy character, and of course, we're going to have a Battle on the Big Bridge remix. For this track, I want to gather eight musicians to form a VGM-rock supergroup called The Eight Arms of Gilgamesh. I want the BotBB arrangement to be very dense and really take advantage of having eight musicians playing together. I think it would be cool to have a really big, epic kind of rock arrangement that's a bit different from what The Black Mages and other bands have done in the past. I don't have a full eight musicians in mind and haven't contacted anyone about it yet, but I do have some names on a wishlist for the roster: sixto, Brandon Strader, OA, SnappleMan, and Ivan Hakstock. If there are any rockers out there who are interested in coordinating this and taking ownership of the arrangement, speak up.
