When I was taking my driving lessons we where driving around some mountains. I looked down at my steering wheel and sure enough, I was driving a Toyota. I started laughing and my teacher looked at me like "what's so funny?" So I yelled "DAYUM I'M DRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIVIN' DA DA MOUNTAINS N SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET." She didn't do anything but tell me how to drive after that That's awesome. I lol'd

About to replace my acoustic yet again; getting a Carvin C350, which will probably replace my variax acoustic 300 as my recording guitar, though I'll probably keep the variax around for live gigs (what? I can dream, can't I?) and for quick demo recordings.

Only thing I really like about young link is his d-tilt; it's a spike, and an easy one which requires much less setup than most.

Nope.

stfu, guitarn00b! ... Actually, yeah, you're right. As far as bang-to-buck ratio for recording amps, you really can't beat an sm57. But that assumes you have an audio interface/preamp/mixer/something with mic inputs. The mic may be just $90, but if you don't already have the ability to record it, getting that will likely cost at nearly as much as the mic itself, if not more. Though honestly, unless you have a REALLY nice amp, I'd spring for modelling software (ie guitar combos, amplitube, guitar rig) before I'd spring for a mic if all you're gonna use it on is guitars.

Brad, update the tracklist. Also, if we still need somebody to take "Epilogue: Dream Shore," I'll do it.

I'd skip the amp altogether, plug the guitar straight into your sound card, and use a vst amp modeler. Guitar Suite is pretty good, and it's free. I've used it in every mix I've done to date that used an electric guitar (though I'm using something else for my upcomming mix of -- ohwait, that's secret)

I hope they don't take out Doc. He's the man.

I'll buy plane tickets in a couple days (so the price will show up on my next credit card bill rather than this one)

Taucer's criticism is fair. However, the only parts that are "note-for-note" are the intro (source), outtro (source), and some of the structure and underscoring of the main theme. If you listen closer though there is a lot of added harmony; at that time I didn't want to touch the melody. In all fairness, I've considered how lucky I was to get this passed then. I'm sure it wouldn't get passed now, and I'm not clueless as to why, don't worry. If it stays on the site, score. If it gets dropped for QA, that's cool too. I would love to remake something more my own with my new equipment. Technologically, I couldn't do it then (AWE32, need I say more). I owe this mix getting posted to Vegas and a good engineering class, not to my equipment. Que sera sera. It's definitely well-executed. I would love to hear more of your stuff. What a coincidence... Is this going where I think it is? I hope so.

That would suck royally.

I'll order mine tomorrow.

Zircon has spoken!

You probably won't need that Fantom X 8. You should just send it to me, so I can get rid of it for you.

Got some nice intro stuff, but starting around 1:22, it turns into a note-for-note cover of the Fantasy Reborn arrangement of the same song until Celes' theme comes in. Then, at 3:28, it goes back to being a note-for-note cover of the fantasy reborn version.

You guys need to choose a date and set it in stone quickly, or I won't be able to make it. I'll be flying home, and plane tickets are more expensive the longer you wait.

I vote thursday.

wtf? I already told you I can't go. Oh yeah. Forgot. That sucks.

That works. It's more or less what we did last year. btw, you bringing your accordion?

I didn't realize this thread still existed. Updated my list

So do we have a more specific time and place for a meetup, or are we just sort of assuming that we'll all run into each other during the course of the convention?

Actually, I didn't mind the walking at all.

And with a high-quality version of the nintendo world video! Damn, listen to that music!
