Hey cool! I didn't expect to hear Journey's End plugs! That little surprise made my Friday.

Come, Watson! The game is afoot!

Ah, ok, I like your plan better Claado. I'm no audio engineer, so I wasn't really sure what Compy could do with the mp3s. I'm glad to hear that that's the gameplan though. Cool. PS: sorry, I wasn't trying to micromanage back there, I was just curious about what the plan was.

This is only curiosity, but what happens if ellywu2 never resurfaces? It's possible that somebody could attempt to reproduce his work (general arrangement, etc.). That way, his tracks would become a sort of collaboration between him and the reproducer, and we'd still be able to credit the tracks to him in some way. He DID contribute a lot of time and effort to this project, and if his tracks need to be handed over to someone else, it would be a shame to see all of his work go to waste ... Hopefully he'll pop in very soon and eliminate any need to consider alternative solutions to the problem.

Does anyone know where ellywu2 lives? If he's anywhere near one of these hurricanes or some other "hotspot," he could be having the same troubles as Unknown. I hope he's ok ... And I'm sure we'll get a hold of Russell Cox sooner or later. From what I've heard, he's an extremely busy guy.

Who's files do you still need. Maybe we can all start PM/email spamming them into compliance.

My WAVs are uploaded and PMed.

I've tried emailing Ravi, but haven't heard back from him yet. And I don't have a couple of the instruments he added, so I can't render out a WAV myself. I'll keep trying to get his attention. Does Compy at least have the mp3 to work with if all else fails?

I wholeheartedly agree. I died a little inside with that NO. I highly recommend Fatty Acid's "Matoya no Fuuketsu" to EVERYONE, especially if you liked this remix. Get yourself over to VGmix and download it. WTF? THAT was rejected? That's one of my favorites over at vgmix. And this is one of my favorites as well. It just touches me... Makes me feel good. Yeah, actually it still kinda bugs me. I may try to convince him to resubmit it. It may be simple, but darn it, "Matoya no Fuuketsu" was some fine work.

If fortune smiles upon me, I'll have my computer back and be up and running by this evening. I'll get to work on your edits as soon as that happens, Compy.

Ok, here's what's been going on with me: My computer crashed and burned Friday night out of nowhere (viruses are my best guess for causation) and since then it won't even run its OS. From the look of things, I'm gonna have to wipe the HD completely and reinstall/reload everything back on. I'm taking it to a place this afternoon to try and retrieve the data from the HD (and scan it for viruses) before I wipe it all. With luck, nothing has been corrupted and I could be back up and running by tonight. Worse scenario: some junk is lost or I don't get the computer back for a few days. HOPEFULLY, I won't be losing any of the recently-changed song files and can have those updated wavs to you very soon, Compy. I promise, I'm trying to get things working as fast as I can. Being without a computer for the last 4 days has been driving me insane.

Hehe, the titles sound like they could be the next generation of Pokemon titles. I like them though. I think they could fit pretty darn well.

I see your point. People can still choose to go the "hodgepodge" route even if there are matching album arts offered, right? I just think that we'll get comments on professionalism if we don't at least offer some matching stuff, and there are probably more people out there who would prefer the coordinated look. No biggie. i STRONGLY disagree with the "hodgepodge" route for the project's artwork. as professional as this production is sounding, it should have consistent graphic reprentation that reflects the theme of the project, as well as the level of quality. to accept a mish-mash of art with one piece looking photo-realistic, another done with pastels, and another with a completely different font-style, to me would denote the project consisting of country, classical, and techno. yes, it's easy to just take the submissions you get and combine them, but if there's any art direction to be given for this is that there should be ONE SINGLE THEME for all the art, just as there is one single theme for the music, and that is the Chrono Trigger movie. i do very much like the work that eon blue has done, but i think the overall theme could be tightened up a bit between the few of them. this site produces some amazingly professional work, and the art chosen to represent it should not be taken lightly. ... especially now that we have a single audio technician handling production. That will make all of the tracks on the album feel a bit more consistent with each other. I personally think it would be good to reflect that consistency in the album art. However, that's only one guy's opinion.

sassy ellywu2 and I are making progress ... really ... um, promise? ... RUN!!! *heads for the hills*

I second that.

reverb: UP EQing: changed compression: added levels: changed But yeah, nothing terribly noticeable.

Oh yeah ... new updates are always more fun when you include links, aren't they? ... yeeeeeaahhhhh .... http://www.sephfire.com/music/inciting_incident.mp3

Inciting Incident mastered further ... free scratch-n-sniff sticker to anyone who can actually hear any difference from the previous version. Orchestration and mastering ... two of my prominent weaknesses ... what have I gotten myself into?

Finally found time to remaster Inciting Incident a bit, but naturally my uploading software is now giving me crap. Hopefully I'll have that up later. Now diverting attention to last WIP ...

So calming. I've never even played a Kirby game before (I want to now), but this ties with "Chozo" for my favorite OCR project to date. Thank you all for improving my workweek.

So which Chrono Symphonic remixer is the cute one?

And while we're asking questions: Claado, about the Crisis Revealed track ... The source material is relatively upbeat tension/chase music, but the scene you sent me is the solemn video footage of the Day of Lavos. Were you intending to blend that track with that scene? Which tone are you looking for in me and ellywu2's rearrangement? (Good work on the article Zeality. )

Go to the South Park homepage at comedycentral.com. There's a SP character builder there and you can take a screenshot when you're done. djp interview just made my morning. Most righteous.

Aww, no Aurora review? Thanks for the mention guys. You're all doing an awesome job. I will download this show for as long as you are willing to record it.

~.....anticipation.....~ BTW, I'm going to rework Inciting Incident just a TAD more. The more I listen to it, the less happy I am with the mastering (go figure). SirRus is mastering Morning Sunlight (I think). I'm not touching Confronting the Mystic anymore. It's done. And I'll get started with Crisis Revealed whenever ellywu2 is ready. Can't wait for the updates. Good to have you back Claado.
