hey, this is pretty cool. good stuff. i never knew that about the soundtrack for this game - i had heard it before, and i thought it was pretty good, but i didn't really notice the degree of complexity that was going on.

hey, ocr xbox live gamerscore leaderboard! awesome! edit: and with that, it's gone. i'm assuming you're testing out new stuff. really cool idea, though!

if you could post some specific spots where it gets too technical, that'd be great. i'll go in and break it down some more. what class?

the minimoog is my favorite synth. got a chance to hang out with herb deustch a year or two ago and play his personal mini. pretty awesome time.

i personally didn't hear about it until i dl'd the cave story remix project, listened to it a bit, and then decided to give the game a try. really interesting style - first platformer i'd played in a while.

money makes up for creativity, to a point. look at most current-gen games on the 360.

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?
