    I remember I had totally talked him into meeting up with me one time when I visited out in Cali, and then my gf of the time got all pissy because I was making these plans that she didn't like, and then I just said the hell with it all, and then she broke up with painfully shortly thereafter and I'll never forgive her because I didn't get to meet Gray. :'(

    But seriously, if he wasn't fer real, then who collab'd with me on that one remix?

    P.S. I'm still mad about that chick out in Cali.

    yes exactly, who did that work for us!

    also HEY, i still bought you coffee when you got lost!

    the most logical thing to explain where he is now is this:

    He works non-stop in a recording studio in Nashville and has no time for anything else anymore.

    Before he disappeared he told me that's where he was going to, he said he was moving to Nashville to work in a studio, and not going to have internet for a while...i imagine he actually is busy working non-stop anyway.

    I'm predicting an Angels v. Cubbies world series.

    I like how well Tampa Bay did this year, great to see Boston have to fight for a spot.

    Cubbies are going to get more attention when postseason comes around though.

    Audix, hitting for the cycle is damned impressive btw.

    this is unusual, after a little while of browsing and working with chrome, i found that it worked the opposite of what i was expecting...SLOWER

    the browser slows down a lot after a little while for me.

    right clicking to open tabs seems to fail for me for some reason.

    and chrome doesn't seem to like playing quicktime player inside of itself for some reason too. (works just plays very slowly)

    honestly it just sounds like you need to support your breath and energize more.

    what i mean by support is use your diaphram rather then your chest to breathe/push the notes.

    also try doing it not so softly, that'll help with the support you're trying to do as well.

    if this is high for you, the higher you are the easier the notes will be if you're louder and are supporting them.

    i hope that's what you're asking for.

    hmm

    All of my latin teachers had me pronounce "que" as "kway" not "kay". This is Latin, not Spanish, afterall.

    but you know, whatever

    hahaha, that's absolutely right, i don't know what i was thinking. it is kway and not que.

    cah-dah-moos-kway

    my bad.

    Oh great, I hadn't really thought of this. I've got absolutely no experience recording vocals when the singers aren't all together (actually, I've got no experience recording anyone but myself, but anyway). Should we stress consonants the "normal" way to do it in a choral setting, or what?

    For those of you who don't know, it's typical to "overact" a little on consonants because of the timbre of a choir's sound and the tendency of things to get muddled really easily by other voices and by the local reverb. We're not going to be singing in a hall and we're probably going to be equalized anyway, but what exactly does that change in terms of stress?

    And I guess we won't know until we see the music (which, if I'm guessing the track right, is a bunch of ahs anyway), but Latin vowels?

    EDIT: First questions directed at Hemo; last one directed at OA.

    i just listened to the track, it sounds like latin to me...which means vowels are to be very round. because consonants create plosives, sibilants and other recording problems we probably will not be over-emphasizing the consonants. however; we will still need to be precise as to where the vowels cut off and end. same goes for breath marks.

    I'd be very interested, though all I have is Audacity and a Shure SM57 plugged in through my laptop's mic jack. I have a little bit of choir experience. I can do either tenor or baritone.

    How are you going to get everyone timbre to match over the internet? Singing in a choir is different than singing solo, as I'm sure you already know.

    well, it's more a question of vowels...rounding out the vowels will help create a more uniform blend. the other thing would be to have less vibrato and more straight tone. certain consonants will also have to be indicated when they're cut off and etc...i could probably create something to help with this depending on what's needed in terms of "lyrics". OA, hit me up, i do have experience in choral writing and can help weed out any problems that may arise.

    Haha I dunno, I'd just end up being a human voteban, because I'm not really that perceptive when it comes to detecting cheating and stuff.

    I am on a LOT though. :lol:

    knowing what cheating is is irrelevant...if you get suspicious, come get another admin to get a second opinion. the only thing you'll probably have to do is warn people for spamming or map stuffs.

    i have banned someone in the server for hacking, but it's so rare that it'll hardly happen.
