umm just sent my first WIP (this link) to sephfire so he could add his own touches. man we were slooowwwww with this project, sorry to let you down guys. sleepyemp would do a great job with this track anyway, so I don't think anyone lost in the end. if you like this WIP seph and I could finish too otherwise good luck everyone.

Hah, wow as a hardcore CT fan myself, I feel like we have really done a service to CT fans everywhere. This was a spectacular idea - once again gotta give props Claado for the idea and seeing it through. Good job everyone, this is a classic project that I never get tired of listening to from time to time, because the themes are so nostalgic and we all did a great job with our reinterpretations and making them our own.

man Blue, you've really mastered the art of soundscape design with your instruments. everything clicks and gives a vast and epic sound overall. I'd really say you do this better than most everyone at OCR.
I like how you bring in the bass to fill it out after the sweet intro, and the guitar melody interspersed with chimes and synths all just come together to make this a beautiful song so far. I could keep raving but I'll just wait for the next update and then for it on the frontpage!

wow. you got that vibe down for sure. more remixes from you would be wonderful
-
i think i said this before, but this song makes me wet.
its the tears guys, the tears. the emotion. the ecstasy. comeon guys.

This is really great. Very appropriate title as well. It definitely has the Pocohontas vibe and in a good way too.
I keep asking my sister to let me know when you and her are hanging out so I can join and finally meet you in person - haha I almost got to this weekend - I told her to call me if you were at some friend's "moving to a new house party" she was telling me you might be at. Anyway, I'm in town on the weekends so hit me back if you want to hang. And by hang I mean you can play this song and all your other OCRemixes for me haha.
Great job buddy.

I like this a lot. Go for the submission!

Roe! You did what I've been failing miserably at lately! Congratulations for getting on the site - this is some classic Roe hottness. I haven't talked to you in forever now that I think about it We used to go back and forth on the wip forums back in the day, so it was a great surprise to see you up on the front page! I love the song man, especially the drum and bass programing as JJT noted. You need to be hired to make music for matrix-esque high energy hollywood movies or somethin.
Take care,
Ravi

badass man. I dig your style, and have yet to find a mix from you that I do not enjoy listening to. But this one is hella tight. nice job with the vocals, I hope to hear you in your songs more.
-
This project is incredible. My favorite. Awesome work guys... I haven't listened to all the songs yet, but I want to give Malcos mad props for his Indian mix, and also the Balrog mix. Hot stuff guys, everything is rocking and far beyond the current average for OCR quality songs.
-
I love it, zircon.
-
that's the coolest thing i have ever seen on this forum. nice!
-
where's the saxamaphone?
no but seriously, real nice. Through the Dark is still my fave by you, but this one is probably your 2nd or 3rd best IMO.
-
haha nice show guys. personally, I'm totally psyched that wingless is cohosting these days. he is my fave. And I hope that statement won't construe this into a favorites thread.
o noz! lock plz.
-
this is hot hot hot. I am definitely a fan of BGC, and this one is my favorite by him thus far. The melodies are always catchy, the beats in this one are definitely more interesting... the string lead is the highlight of this mix for me. Fits in perfectly with the style and all the intricate hooks going on to make this mix amazing.
Congratulations again on the marriage. Thanks for bringing us more mixes!

has anyone else mentioned exploring other art forms yet? Probably sgx
but really, not just drawing/painting/filming/photography, even reading mind opening literature could open new doors of creativity. This could all be a part of po!'s advice of just taking a long break... travel, read some books on the beach, explore some exotic locations that remind you of your most mind blowing dreams, such as your new songs for the South American temple's soundtrack...
Studying abroad might be an awesome opportunity in your college years to really explore not only the musical talents abroad but the lifestyles and beauty of their lands.

Do drugs?
haha, if all else fails. or perhaps even as a primary weapon in your IMMENSE arsenal.

this is most certainly a n00b question, but what is a reliable program you all use to monitor the peak levels, and see if your songs are hitting 0 dB or not? Can you rest assured that if your song is not going above this level during the entireity of your song that it is free of clipping?
-
ah, I remember reading a very similar post on SGX's website last year... I'm sorry to hear you're in a slump, and I do hope Danny posts in here with his thoughts from when he felt the same way. Clearly, he is dong much much better these days.

* Parametric EQ (only making very small modifications, +/-3db, and usually only to the lows/highs)
* TRacks compressor (I love the sound of this, and I set it so that I get a nice, saturated mix given the type of music I do)
* TRacks limiter (some colored limiting to keep my levels in check)
Could you or somebody else elaborate on compression. I have found that a lot of the industry audio-engineers are frustrated with being asked to make CD's as loud as possible through compression. On OCR, the judges also tend to look down on overcompression of tracks as it loses the natural audio quality of the instruments. So my question is what is a "nice saturated mix" setting on a compresser such as the TRacks compressor. Also, do you not generally compress individual tracks like your drumset, guitars, vocals independent from each other? How do you achieve a good balance with this if you are only applying compression to the master track?
As for what I can contribute, I found a really great series on mastering through workbooks and associated ear training from Dave Moulton (one of the top audio engineers in the world):

how can the Wingless be so awesome at so many things. He is quite definitively, the man's man. In other words, yes I have a man crush on the Wingless, and no I am not ashamed of admitting it.
THANK YOU WINGY FOR PLEASING MINE EARS WITH YET ANOTHER EARGASM!!!!!!!!!!

hahahaha. nice.
