I think it's far more important for audio recording, especially if you have multiple things recording at once.

*sigh* Okay yeah fuck Map 30, that thing has drained out all my inspiration, I turn into a vegetable whenever I even hear the song. I'd like to switch to the Waste Tunnels, if that's OK. Pretty sure I can come up with something awesome. Er rather take, not switch, as I was technically booted from the project, I guess! :S

! Hmm... I'll have to think about this. I had a thought that maybe I should just drop map 30 and try another song, especially since it seems a bit of the soundtrack has now opened back up. I literally took Map 30 because it was the last one available [aka nobody wanted the piece of shit]. Track 5 sounds enticing...

Anyone can start a remix project. Managing it is the hard part. You can also have huge projects like the Cave Story Remix Project and Bound Together that aren't necessarily "official OCR projects" or organized on these forums, but are just as successful if not moreso. So yeah, you don't need "qualifications" to do ANY sort of project over the internet, just be ready to deal with a lot of typical deadline excuses from project musicians, if you can even find any with free time [harder than you may think!], and people who think they know better/could run the project better than you.

200-999? haha cheapskates

I guess it depends on your tastes :D:D

I might try a song once I finish another project PS4 rocks.

Michael Angelo Batio is the guy to ask about this stuff: aww yeah Guitars with more than 2 necks aren't really playable, by the way. Batio sounds like shit using his quad guitar, but I guess it's kind of cool to look at XD

Ah thanks Yeah sorry I thought I'd be clever and use "Pardessus" because it's a french forum

I can't see the project forum anymore. It seems to have disappeared? It's getting very difficult for me to stay interested in this project.

Converting to .ogg is a terrible idea. If they're already in .mp3 format, and you convert them to .ogg, you get both .mp3 encoding artifacts AND .ogg artifacts, all rolled up into a nice, lossy, terrible sounding .ogg package. So I don't see why you would do that.

I just posted on Doulifee's forum with a good question!

Egads, I've been dropped! Can you put me back on? I've actually been waiting for more feedback before I do anything more, since to me it's practically almost finished. Maybe I should start actively asking? I thought this project would be a little closer than the other one's I've been on, but nobody's really talking to each other so... I'm seriously unsure of where to go next with my mix, but I'll try and search out some other opinions myself. I'll hunt for stuff to fix myself, for now.

You're both half right, I guess. Without the deep textures and filters, there really wouldn't be much there. Yes there are indeed notes, but the melodies are so incredibly simple that there's almost nothing to build off of. Most of the soundtrack for HL2 is a few notes repeating over and over again, with [good] processing/filtering/effects for progression.

Snapple, do you have a link to those videos? I've been looking for them ever since I got back home. So fucking hilarious. This forum NEEDS those videos.

I think you are exceeding the number of simultaneous voices allowed. So basically, you're having polyphony problems. I can't help you tweak Sonar myself since I don't have it, so look in the help file or try to ask on the Sonar newgroup or bulletin board

Your latency may be too low? I dunno. A bigger buffer would ease the CPU a lot, but of course the delay gets bigger... There are also guides out there regarding maximizing Windows XP for music production. http://www.audioforums.com/resources/windows-xp-optimization.html is a good place to start.

Apparently the firewire Audiophile blows, and the latency is ridiculous I know a guy that has [had?] one, and he said this. Maybe he set it up wrong but I doubt it.

I think it was Chad Seiter that used a Mia and I haven't seen him for months now that I think about it

The irony in this thread is wet much like y

No Read up on both MIDI and VSTs on wikipedia or google or something

go to findsounds.com and search for "gong" you will get results of varying quality, but there should be a decent one

There's a nice sticky with a long list of places to get VST and samples, go ahead and check that out.

I forgot how to adjust latency in Sonar, look in the help file. DAW = Digital Audio Workstation

I forgot you put Fuck through that thing good times
