Timaeus, please do OCR00061 - OCR00100 Tables, please do OCR00101 - OCR00140 SystemsReady and Olarin, check your PMs for assignments and links.

If something is clearly meant to be a flute, but also a sampled flute and not live, put it as a flute. Synth is more for a generated electronic sound that doesn't necessarily have an acoustic analogue. Tables, please work on OCR00041 - OCR00060.

If you've finished your assigned batch and want some more remixes to do, post here for a new assignment!

For extra tags, check the instruments that are prominent. For example, if the violin in a track particularly stands out, check "violin." But if it's just a background instrument that doesn't really draw focus, leave it. No on the comment box. We have a specific set of tags that we've gone over many times. We don't want to get into adding really subjective terms like what you've indicated.

Never enough OverClockeds.

I believe the the Collective refers to the OC Jazz Collective (who are also awesome)! The hip-hop group is OverClocked Assembled.

Yeah remember guys, a song can be in a key and also modulate and have accidentals here and there. That doesn't necessarily change the key, it just means that the composer is stepping outside the box for a bit to keep things interesting.

ladyWildfire, I strongly urge you to get someone to spit some rhymes over Tribal Hunter if you decide to sub to OCR. The beat is too good and is practically begging for someone to rap over it.

An updated zip file has been uploaded with fixed file names. Some extraneous hyphens floating around that I did not catch. Also remember, if you have a Maverick from MMX5, use the Japanese name, not the weird localized Puns 'n Roses name (i.e. Tidal Makoeen instead of Duff McWhalen).

Remixes are up! Let me know if there are any issues. Thank you and enjoy.

Your name First place choice remix name Second place choice remix name Third place choice remix name Please use the forum's bulleted list feature, as shown above, and please do not "creatively misspell" remix names; copy the remix titles from the list above to avoid any mistakes. Do not include NUMBERS in your list, i.e. your first choice should be "Remix Title," not "1) Remix Title." This is really important, because it'll help me plug your votes into my tallying spreadsheet without a lot of hassle. Voting in the proper format will help expedite the tallies being done. Thank you! Things to keep in mind when voting: The most important thing to consider when voting is how well the remix incorporates and arranges both themes. Production and enjoyability should also be considered, but this is primarily an arrangement competition. The sources have been linked above for your reference. Everyone is allowed (and encouraged) to vote, including competitors. Competitors should not place their own team's remix in their rankings, regardless of whether they are the remixers for that round or not. However, by voting, they will earn a first place vote for their team's remix. If you are on a team, you must post what team you are on in your vote so I can make sure your team gets your voting bonus. If you do not specify your team, I cannot guarantee that your team will receive a voting bonus. You are required to make an actual decision for each choice, meaning, you cannot declare a draws or a ties for different places. This will be counted as not voting and your vote will not be counted. Do not post reviews in the voting thread. Compile your reviews for each round into a single post in the main competition thread. Post only once in each voting thread. Everyone must adhere to the Competitions Code of Conduct.

Music is being prepared. Hiryuu, Anorax, and Darren Smith, you guys didn't submit 44.1kHz waves. I have to convert these. Please make sure you are exporting your wav files in accordance with the standards specified in the first post.

I agree. I think it would be worth exploring putting some artist links on remix pages.

Music will go up later tonight folks. Sorry, got caught up with some other things last night. Also, remember guys, if you're having trouble coming up with an idea for your remix this week, you have team members you can bounce ideas off of. Get on Skype or something and start brainstorming. There's nothing wrong with having your team members come up with the seed of your arrangement, so long as you're the one expanding it out into a full piece.

These are the files I have: Caffeine Shoveling Hunter Turtloids - Ghetto Lee Lewis feat.

Great graphics and music. Awesome character progression with Zero. Really love the story with Repliforce. Tragic love between Iris and Zero is sad. Bad VA is charming and also excusable. Revelations about Zero's past are interesting. Game has great control, very fun.

Mega Man X4 is my favorite X game

Round 4's song is Mega Max X4 - Final Weapon

You need to be more specific than "a video project."

yep

It's not supported in IPB.

Remember guys, if you voted previously, make sure you re-download the remix pack, listen to all 13 remixes, and re-vote in the new thread. Votes in the old thread won't be counted.

Voting is still ending on Saturday. If your team doesn't submit a remix for that round, they don't earn any points for the round. I guess you still get the bonus but it doesn't actually matter because your team cannot place in the overall rankings at all.
