no, you're not understanding what i'm talking about. not a hardware synth, like a keyboard or something. a software synth, reason's Maelstrom or FL's Sytrus. ok, sytrus would be easier than maelstrom, but you get the picture. the whole point is doing everything - drums, bass, pads, everything - using different instances of the same synth. edit: yeah, zircon, that's what i'm talking about. like Blue v1.01, for example - that kind of stuff.

my wife cuts my hair now. way cheaper than ten dollars every two weeks for a five-minute buzz.

has anyone ever done anything like this? i've been getting into single-synth remixing a lot lately because it forces me to get creative and not just do everything in a rut. using just one synthesizer and completely exploring the tonal capabilities of it have really expanded my flexibility, i think. it's pretty fun. i've done tracks using NI's Massive and Absynth, Rob Papen's Blue, and i'm thinking about digging into Omnisphere some this time around for my next one. anyone else ever did anything like this?

CHz strikes again, the venerable encyclopedia of all things video game music related. i don't know how you'd know that without knowing everything.

remixes are hobbies. work is work. if people work for free, then people who need money for their work get undercut.

ahh, he's new. don't rag him too bad.

if you like bose, look at their triport headphones on ebay. you can generally find them for around 60$ if you look around. beyond that, the earbuds i use when i need to be more portable are really cheap. these are also ones i have owned. both of them are pretty durable and have pretty good sound. and they're cheap, so when you drive over them you're fine. i've owned six pairs in the last seven years, and i like them.

oh, do tell!

i'm currently listing myself as selling computer bits - drives, monitors, components of various kinds, some cases, card readers, etc. i've got a lot of stuff sitting around that i want to make some money off of so i can buy this. if you want some new stuff, let me know. most of this stuff is simple plug-n-play components that'll enable extra devices or something, so they're pretty user-friendly.

bump? i'd love more responses to this.

not to knock you, sam, but why do you do this kind of stuff all the time? the thread was about genres, not 'post your video of something vaguely related to something mentioned in this thread at some point'.

oh, perfect. thanks, harmony.

yeah, it's all really speculative. i like articles that explore possibilities, though, and his reasoning for most of his ideas are relatively sound. there was a Wii version of this about four months ago that i read that was actually really cool - similar stuff, but not quite as large as this was.

well, you mentioned final fantasy. six of them were on nintendo, then five on ps1/ps2 (a few on pc, too, which was MS) with xi going cross-platform to MS as well. now XIII is 360 for one version and ps3 for the other. companies just go with what's the best install base for their games. always been that way, always will be that way.

to those who read this, i don't want to start a fanboy flamer thread. i'm posting this because it's one of the best bits of game journalism that i've read in years - HONESTLY. it's mostly speculation, but it's well-researched speculation - and contains a ton of stuff that i, as someone who considers himself well-informed as to the nature of the gaming industry, didn't know or realize. some of the middle issues aren't as riveting as the rest, but articles one, three, five, seven, and eight are really good. eight is the capstone of them all - lots of info regarding the coming year in each of microsoft's stable of dev studios and squeenix's relationship with microsoft and the 360 console. hist first article talks about this year's expectations for the PS3, and why next year's likely to be a lot better for the PS3. master samo released this in eight parts. they're linked below. one: the beginning two: the MMO three: the newcomer four: the ally five: the paradigm six: the following seven: the massacre eight: the unveiling really, really good stuff. only thing that bothers me is the fact that HHGS never proofreads their articles, so there's some grammatical inconsistencies. drives me up a wall, but there's still good content there.

good tut. i'll honestly say that i've never really know what sidechaining is, and this was a good clear description of what that is and how to do it.

sorry for the double post. depending on what you need, Florestan's String Quartet soundfont on hammersound is pretty nice. it's very much a specific sound, though, and if it's not what you're looking for it's kind of annoying.

anyone know a good gate effect? i know i can just stutter the audio volume, but i've seen effects that have more features than that in a tight package. anyone got something similar?

since your question is about music, this should have been in the remixing section. i'm sure it'll get moved soon, so just fyi. your link doesn't seem to work. any reason the link that's displayed isn't the link that pops up when you click it?

we are talking about the same thing, right? i honestly thought tvs were required to have coax inputs. i've never seen one without one. my dad has one from the seventies with a connection, for goodness sake. if that's what you need, and you don't have it anywhere on your tv, i don't know how to help you. there are virtually no tvs out there without this connector on it SOMEWHERE. which is why you haven't been able to find the converter, i'm assuming.

but can it blend?

and your tv doesn't have an input for coax? or is it being used for tv/cable currently? if so, coax switches are, like, a dollar at radio shack. my family bought one in 1996. i guess i don't understand why you need to go from coax to rca to get it into a tv. every tv made in the last three decades has had a coax plug.

like this?

ok, that's all your stuff, abadoss. thanks for keeping us updated, man.

is that why your hair in your sig is white-ish? or is that all the organic stuff?
