  1. believe it was posted in your picture thread. whatever the case, i know i've seen it before. i'd like to show her my softsynth... nope, killed it.
  2. shit, i dont get off work till 11. keep mustin on the phone.
  3. i'm almost certain that's going to come back to haunt jill one day. bet my bottom dollar on it.
  4. FL is one of many sequencing tools that may or may not be right for you. Check with your doctor before you begin usage. Seriously though, what do you mean by "Basic Software"? From my knowledge of it, if you make use of the VST capabilities of FL, it's just as powerful of a tool as any other. The idea of FL as a "beginner tool" is a flawed one. You'll learn with time and experience. You can rip the score from a midi, but OCR doesn't look too kindly at that. It's preferred (nay, enforced) that you play or write the notes out by yourself, as opposed to ripping someone elses work. MIDI rips are not accepted on OCR http://www.ocremix.org/remixer/ae/ http://www.ocremix.org/remixer/beatdrop/ http://www.ocremix.org/remixer/darkesword/ http://www.ocremix.org/remixer/dct/ http://www.ocremix.org/remixer/geckoyamori/ http://www.ocremix.org/remixer/krispy/ http://www.ocremix.org/remixer/mythrilnazgul/ http://www.ocremix.org/remixer/sirnuts/ http://www.ocremix.org/remixer/tefnek/ http://www.ocremix.org/remixer/trenthian/ http://www.ocremix.org/remixer/zircon/ off the top of my head. i'm sure there's more.
  5. Nigga. Not nigger. Anyways, its been some time since I posted about how much I enjoy this song. It still ranks in my toplist of VGRemixes. Great stuff from Ubik and zyko.
  6. I do this on occasion (bad habit) but then I ALWAYS end up wanting to change around a middle section or add in a bridge somewhere...and realise that I have to manually move each instruments notes over x amount of bars in order to fit in a new part. When you work with 20-30 instruments, that becomes a severe pain.
  7. Unfortunately, that will most likely not be happening. My hard drive is slowly dying and when i tried to save the file, it corrupted the save, and corrupted each subsequent backup save I tried to open. I'll probably be redoing it at some point, but it would mean starting all over from scratch and working from the rendered mp3.
  8. Uh. yeah, I'm sure it's possible to work your way around it. There'd just be way too much thinking involved if you wanted to do something extreme like 4/4->7/8->5/4->3/4. I could imagine signature changes to be the easiest thing in fruity. http://www.mythrilnazgul.com/Shnafu.mp3
  9. Not to seem like a big bad moderator or anything, but a word of advice for the future. In this section of the community (Remixing 101), it pays to type coherantly and not resort to AIM-speak (I would hope it pays in all sections, but...). You'll get a lot more respect if you can convey your question/point/thought in a manner that's at least somewhat mature. Typing in a constant state of speedy-chat speak won't get you any brownie points here. It's not a race to type as fast as possible. You're making a post. Think it out before type it out. Sorry if it seems like I'm jumping on ya, but it's good knowledge.
  10. I use the Edirol 50 but i've had it for less than a year...so I can't back that up. But it's been very useful to me in the time i've had it. I use knobs on occasion to automate my FX while recording...and it's helpful. Saves the trouble of going back and individually mapping out the knob automation.
  11. A follow up to my mention about 9th Wonder the other day, this is an excerpt of an interview with him: Also, check out the first post here: http://beatmaking.blogspot.com/ for a great video of how to effectively use the FL turntable
  12. woulda dug some vocals in this, but it's hot so it's ok. closing time...
  13. OMG U READ STICYS PLZ. IN EBFORE TEH LCOK
  14. i'm usually a fan of the more avant garde remixers (shna, wingless, ab), but...I just can't enjoy most of this mix. When the drums aren't going on, yes, i dig the textures of the synths, pads and ep, the panning choices, the ambience...very creepy and ephemeral, almost Silent Hill-ish. It's just...I mean, Retentions of Conflict, man. I understand that the drums are supposed to be lo-fi, chaotic, overcompressed, yeah, I got that...Doesn't mean I like it. When the drums are banging away, sounding distorted as hell, I squirm a bit. I'm not a fan of the Flaming Lips or whoever else uses overcompressed drums like this (I know it's used a lot in triphop, but I can't say that massive attack or tricky ever made me squirm). I'm siding with the issues brought up by the dissenting panel members. I agree that the arrangement is great, but the drums are so grating and distorted...yup. I'm reminded of the decision for Figaro Chiptune, a couple of days ago, where sound quality overrode arrangement and resulted in a rejection. So, yeah, Figaro had more of an issue with sound quality, but the argument is along the same lines. In fact, I feel pretty much like Vig did for FC: So maybe it's not the same. Hell, it's only my opinion. And I know the Earthbound soundtrack lends itself well to unconventional and unorthodox remixes. Fan of AB's stuff. Not a huge fan of (sections of) this song.
  15. That's interesting...I guess the submissions policy wasn't as tite back then.
  16. I had over 23 instances of Kompakt running in my Doom track...bad idea at the time...bad idea now. Can't remember WHY, but I had a reason...
  17. I know' date=' I know. I can [i']tell just by listening that it truly is his work. It's just one of those things that's almost too awesome to be true. You guys must've been stoked when you got that one. I wasn't on staff at the time, but no doubt. Protricity in particular felt his own material just didn't compare. LOL indeed. you could say he was "souled" on the whole package from the start.
  18. if anyone has any doubts about how far FL can take you, look up 9th wonder - one of the rising stars of the hiphop world. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9th_Wonder "Originally making hip-hop beats from his North Carolina Central University dorm room using software called Fruityloops and selling them on Soundclick, he has since become one of the more accredited producers in the hip hop music music industry."
