prophetik music   Judges ⚖️

updated up to now, except neko's two posts that i asked him to clean up.

unpossible most graphic cards IDLE at 50C. i'm willing to bet your temp sensors are toast.

i've found that ati cards don't really overclock very well. corruption usually is a result of heat, but it's weird that it's happening no matter what. buy nvidia? i don't know what to tell you. i've only overclocked an ATI once - a 4870, back in the day - and it was terribly difficult to get stable. i was only on one monitor, too. i'd be inclined to point to a secondary monitor as part of the issues - but again, i'm just speculating.

collab? need some akkadia-rising-esque sax that's less noodly and more spacey?

not having to load and leave things in memory will be fixed when there's a real install. they'll be able to dump stuff from chunks that are farther away and not continue to leave them in the memory.

well, you'll get a printed bulletin of events when you sign in, so it's gotta be finalized at some point that week.

powerglove and wave theory are coming?!? awesome! they're probably two of my favorite vg bands to see live. can't wait to nab a wave theory cd this year.

the desktop's processor is faster than the laptop's processor thanks to a better FSB, actually. common misconception. sound card makes no difference. i don't think i've ever actually put a sound card in a PC i built graphics card should help with some acceleration, but as a whole MC is cpu-based, with little gpu acceleration. it uses 500mb of ram because it doesn't have an install - it's gotta load everything it uses into the ram. if/when they build an installer, it'll be much less.

prophetik's second track is done. sent you the wav just now. finished last night.

i've got a few active projects right now. i'm finishing up a progressive rock track for MMX, i've been collaborating with CHIPP Damage on a rap/rock FF8 track that's sounding pretty awesome, i've got two orchestral projects going on, and a jazz/light rock thing as well.

too bad i saw this thread as late as i did. i've got a ton of experience doing tech support and customer service from various jobs - i mean, right now i work 40hr/week for Microsoft's internal tech support service - and i'd love to work for a company i support as much as this =) oh well. i'll see you at magfest, so maybe we can chat a bit about future projects and some other things that iv'e had on my mind.

thanks, man =) also, nice name i went by PSWii60 for a while myself on a few online games.

this is what i'm thinking =( moseph, i'm going to just turn UAC off completely for this new build anyways, so that might make a difference. i'll give it a shot.

your tom samples sound pretty bad =( but this is actually really fun to listen to. add some reverb on the lead in the faster part, and some better tom samples, and you're golden. nice work

...someone's been hitting the drank amirite

so, i'm in the process of building an offline-only windows-based pc solely for music creation. i'm trying to decide if it's worth going the w7 64-bit route, or if xp 64-bit would be fine. i know that xp's 64-bit distro was really buggy, but it's also incredibly lightweight - under 200mb at any given time. it also runs anything created for music, ever - i've got several VSTs that have never functioned properly on w7 (the steinberg virtual guitars, for example, don't install on w7). my main worry is that w7 is definitely what is being developed for, and i don't want to have to reinstall all this stuff down the line just because everything in a year or two starts requiring w7. but i don't know if i want to lost a gigabyte or more to the OS itself. with a 64-bit box i guess it won't matter as much, but it'd be nice to not worry about it. what do you think? i've got a 64-bit copy of w7 sitting around, and it shouldn't be tough to get the copy of xp if i decide to go that route. basically i'm asking if anyone's got experience with xp 64-bit, and if they think that my fears about bugs and crashes are unwarranted.

also, i'm urgently in need of an XP x64 disc with a working key. i'd gladly trade a vista x86 or x64 key, or i think i have some other operating systems in various forms. to be honest, a real key would be enough - but a disc would make things much easier. by urgently, i mean i need it within the next week. preferably sooner.

neko, that's a ton of stuff. would you mind typing it up in some approximation of the listing at the beginning of the thread? it's a lot easier when i just copypasta the stuff in there. also, nice gif

my secret santa got in touch with me today to say that they're bringing my gift to magfest. so, it's coming! just a few weeks away.

lol! bustatunez still complains on irc about how cold it was in that water. it was cold because it was linked to the outside!

fyi to everyone involved, i'm up for a collab with someone if they want. i already offered my hand to remix any random stuff that doesn't get touched by people, but i'd be happy to help people who want to try remixing get a track to a finished state.

nice work, txai. this makes me 3rd, right?

that organ thing looks like the keyboard that they use in the "Hey Ya" video. doot doot doot doot!

run the installer as an administrator? or in compatibility mode for xp?

this actually sounds pretty sweet. i'll have to give it a shot =)
