I like it! Thank you. Now I just need to host it... but I'll probably be using it within then next couple days. Thanks! -
Ye Olde Sig Shoppe - * sig requests* (read first post)
Geoffrey Taucer replied to CapnHulk's topic in General Discussion
I guess I wouldn't mind having a real sig. Preferably something involving guitars and/or Xenogears and/or the Chrono series. I'm not picky, just something cool looking. -
Live Performers offer and request thread
Geoffrey Taucer replied to GrayLightning's topic in Music Composition & Production
I'm definitely going to take a look at this one. I guess rubber suit man has first dibs on it, but like I said, I'd be happy to take it if he doesn't. -

Damn, rubber suit man beat me to it. If for any reason rubber suit dude can't do it, pm me and I'll be happy to. I also can't read sheet music, but can play very well by ear. -
Live Performers offer and request thread

Mods, it would be nice if instead of making people scroll through page after page of performers offering their skills, we had a running list in the first post that could be edited as needed when somebody else offers. Just a thought. -

Everybody, I think as well as listing what you have to offer as far as performance, you should also list what you have available as far as gear, because unfortunately, that's sometimes just as important. If you're the best singer/guitarist/saxist/whatever in the world, it's still useless to the rest of us unless we know you can get a quality recording of it. Demos are also a good idea, if possible. -

Any flute players? A live flute player would be very helpful with this mix I'm working on. -

Hey, mods, is there any chance we could get this sticky-fied? -

I play guitar, irish whistle, and keyboards. Acoustic guitar is my specialty. I'm very proficient at finger picking, especially that folky-country-type stuff (see my "Town Life" collab with djp). I'm okay but not spectacular at classical. And, of course, I can do plain ole' chord strumming just fine. I can do electric guitar reasonably well. Either rythm or lead work is fine with me. I'm not all that great at high-speed shredding, but I can generally do more mellow melodic work pretty well. I can also write a guitar part to go along with your mix. In addition to guitars, I play irish whistles and keyboards. On Irish whistle, I'm reasonably good. My whistle is a high D whistle, but unlike a pan flute, an Irish whistle can hit sharps/flats, so if your stuff is in another key I may still be able to play it (D and G are the easiest keys for me, though). I'll give pretty much anything a try. An irish whistle has about a 2 octave range. The lowest note I can hit is D one octave above middle C. I have also now aquired a low whistle, which plays in the same key, but one octave lower. It sounds unbelievably sexy. I'm planning on buying a lower whistle as well. I'll edit this post again once I have it. Here's a list of what gear I have available: -A Yamaha s03 keyboard synth (has pretty good piano patches) -A Yamaha FG-80 steel-stringed acoustic guitar -A Line6 Variax 300 steel-stringed acoustic modeling guitar -A soundhole pickup -A Shure SM57 microphone -E-MU 1212m audiocard -A Squier Standard Stratocaster electric guitar -An SFX-02 Tweak Fuzz pedal -Crate VTX15 electric guitar amp -A Mackie 1202-VLZ mixer -A Feadog high D irish whistle -A Humphrey Journeyman high D irish whistle -A Burke low D irish whistle -A Chilean pan flute For electric guitars, I generally use VST amp modelers (either Guitar Suite or Amplitube) rather than my real amp, as they usually sound much better. I cannot read lead tabs or sheet music. I'll be learning the parts by ear. -
OCR01276 - Donkey Kong Country 2 "Set Sail"
Geoffrey Taucer replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This is how this tune was meant to be played. Absolutely brilliant, and one of the best-done orchestras I've heard in a mix. -
Chrono Trigger: Chrono Symphonic - History
Geoffrey Taucer replied to Claado Shou's topic in Projects
I wish I could participate. Unfortunately, I lack the gear/software/money required to convincingly synthesize an orchestra. -
Chrono Trigger: Chrono Symphonic - History
Geoffrey Taucer replied to Claado Shou's topic in Projects
Sounds like a great idea, but I think you're making a mistake by excluding piano. Pianos are sometimes (I'll admit not frequently, but sometimes) used in movie soundtracks to spectacular effect. -
OCR01249 - Donkey Kong Country 2 "From Within"
Geoffrey Taucer replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Holy shit! This kicks ass! -
OCR01247 - Chrono Trigger "To Far Away Memories"
Geoffrey Taucer replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This mix is AWESOME! Congrats on finally getting it up, Neil. -
OCR01225 - Xenogears "Pillar of Salt"
Geoffrey Taucer replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
This is a perfect example of why I love Star Salzman so much. Pure genius. Nothing more to say about it. Star, I bow down to your greatness. -
OCR00789 - Chrono Trigger "Temporal Distortion"
Geoffrey Taucer replied to orkybash's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Good, but not up to Star Salzman's usual standards. However, I should point out that Star's "usual standards" are rediculously high. -
OCR01177 - Xenogears "A Momentary Emotion"
Geoffrey Taucer replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
I'm a huge fan of Kaijin's style, and this one was definitely up among his best. Brilliant, beautiful, perfect. Not much else to say.
