That's only because of your many backdoor keys to get the ball rolling, Larry. ...and that endless supply of McRibs.

Quoted for truth. I could have sworn the second management wouldn't have left anyone behind from those that worked with the first. Whether it makes it on or doesn't, we'd still be really happy for you to send it to the site anyway - Gunstar notwithstanding, we don't hear much from you often

Come on Branbro, you know you want it... for my birthday at least (Damnit, I can't help feeling antsy when we're close to album releases again. I'll just laugh everything off, whatever happens.)
-
I'll do that once I find out that I fail to make the mixflood again.

If it's the GB gang, then for the love of god, please don't make me pull an all-nighter like the TMNT one.

I must be doing something right if the tune I did opened the bleedin' trailer! And the transition to the track after it was also genius! Still, way to go for pulling it off Alex! Roll on the pending release for sure!

I understand your request loud and clear. I'll see if I can point out some basic critiques to help shape out your vision - it's a big ambition for a new face. - Good thing you mentioned FL Studio 11, because the ugly Slayer soundfont does not work in this instance. You're trying to make it sound laid back in the middle of summer, but instead the synth-metal-guitar-wannabe has ensured that everyone relaxing on the beach is being chased away by a bull stampede. -- If you want my advice here, I generally prefer to use e-pianos to be the rhythm for that serene atmosphere. It's a good idea to double track two almost-similar-sounding instances of e-piano and panning them on opposite sides of the stereo field, the position depending on those for the other instruments (and certainly don't push either of them further than 40 each way otherwise it'll just sound too wide). - The organ sound at 1:05 sounds way too thick in tone for what it's trying to do. I sense that it has a major tone that it's trying to work with, as well as a lower sub-tone that adds too much congestion to the lower rhythm area. To help this, I would suggest adding an EQ High Pass at 350hz - that would eliminate the ugly low register, while still keeping the dominant tone clean. -- For future reference, this key chart might help for future equalisation quirks: http://www.vibrationdata.com/Resources/piano_keys.jpg If you have problems with unwanted frequencies, this could help you out accordingly as to finding out what tones in your VST may not be needed and taking action. - That theramin at 1:21 / 2:41 needs transposing. It's 3 semitones up from the original progression - bring it back down there. - The piano playing major 7th arpeggios instead of the original's minor 7ths doesn't translate well to the rest of the track. You wrote them purely as natural notes, while in the original its patterns are: [G B(flat) D F / F A(flat) C E(flat)] If you were meant to do that in the first place, then that's what you gotta adjust. Outside from all this, the authenticy is something that I feel can't be done with stock FL samples. I know how hard it is to just work with so little so young (heck, I had been there >_>), but you can always look around KVR for any freebies that could really enhance the experience you're working on. Once you get more comfortable working with these freebies, that's when you can start looking at commercial VSTs and judging any demos from those in comparison to what you would have used. As for synth guitars... if you still really want those, I'd recommend you ask another guitarist to record them live for you. That is by far the most authentic way. I hope this helps you - and good luck with the rest of your project!

Pokémon X/Y and OmegaRuby/AlphaSapphire (Gen6) (3DS)

Sad but true. My body is ready for tomorrow though. -
Dwelling of Duels - July 2014 - Free Month
Rexy replied to Brandon Strader's topic in General Discussion
Nooo, we totally need some Crazy Bus in this Free Month! It's eventually due to happen! -
I guess it's too late to record after all, lol. But either way, I just realised something. If you're aiming for the GB Anniversary, I have a feeling that for me, this'll be a... birthday album release. *_* You hardly see any of those these days, hahaha.

Sonic Heroes. Could beat all the stories, but never the Special Stages (thus never saw the true ending through my game copy). I must be that lousy. *_*

Long time no usey this thread, lol. Anyway, this Friday on SMD, it's going to be a big one, going through not one but TWO new EPs! There'll be a dual playthrough for both RobKTA's OutRun album "OutRax" as well as a WORLD EXCLUSIVE playthrough for Jivemaster's "Green Hill Sessions"! Details about the event is over here - BE THERE!
-
I've done a bunch. Happy listening.

Yes, yes, that Mario album's cool and all... but you CAN'T FORGET A COMMUNITY BIRTHDAY CAN'T YOU?! All the best for our resident Castlevania-passioned Frenchie and core spearheader for the BadAss and Vampire Variations projects. I declare we all eat a pain au chocolat for supper tonight! [EDIT: Also forgot our core Japanese translator, The Legendary Zoltan. Quick cake for him too!]

MY DELAYED FINAL is happening after June 10, and it's been sent over at last. Brandon, thank you VERY MUCH for your incredible suprise demonstration of patience.
-
I've tried Brandon, but the WAV's gonna be coming tomorrow. I didn't realise there was THAT much mixing to be done for it. But trust me on this, I will knuckle down hard even if it's going to require a dozen cups of coffee to get this shit done.

Going by experience, I believe that resubs don't count in regards to the waiting period - usually they can be fast-tracked on a by-track basis, which would explain that the to be judged queue has some fast-tracked resubs long after the date the panel has reached to begin with. I hope that (kind of) helps, though I'm open to be corrected.

So that means an electric immunity / special attack boost payoff for Sceptile and extra speed in rain for Swampert. This could throw the tide in regards to what starter I plan to use when I get the game - it's especially given Sceptile one heck of an edge. So glad we got screenshots at last - vague as it looks, but we may be onto something. Still, mega-evolution and alterations to the story makes it look more liberal for a remake; however, as long as it plays awesome, I'm cool with this.

3DS: Friend Codes on First Page, OMG THE THIRD DIMENSION
Rexy replied to The Damned's topic in General Discussion
So am I! I've got family, friends, people I know, and whatever pop culture icon replicas I've encountered over Streetpass. Possibly the most hilarious thing I've seen so far is my pet cat successfully operating a blind date between two other people. If only if Timmy was really like that in real life... xD -
I've used Cubase in the past. It functions similar to Reaper in terms of workflow from what I found (though to be fair I've known a couple of people who'd disagree with me); the only major downside with it is that some releases of the software require you to have to plug some kind of dongle in to get it to work. It's rewarding when you do something right, but if you're having problems even with ProTools, then it's probably not the way forward right at this moment in time. But yes, I'm in the Reaper club. You may have to get your own VSTs though, but it's smooth as heck to work with when you've got the instruments you need.

All 8-bit food-stuffs are on us, halc. Make it a great one!
