Freshly Baked ReMixer Challenge 2008 (Phase 3: Match-Ups, Mixing, March 16th Deadline

That's a great idea, but I don't want to install any additional software taking up CPU cycles and taking away from the overall stability of the system. Besides, I like to chose when I save iterations and label them with comments.

[Kanthos]

I don't think you understand how Subversion works then, because it does exactly what you just described. There would be minimal, if any, extra CPU cycles, especially if all you use is Tortoise SVN. SVN is a versioning system: you basically make a repository (a place to store data; the setup is really easy), add an empty project to the repository, and check the project out. You can then add files to the project and commit your changes to the repository. SVN is only active in the process when you actively invoke it; it's not something that'll sit and monitor all your changes. It works when you commit by comparing your working copy of the file to the latest version in the repository. So for your purposes, it'd be a bit of setup, and then you'd commit changes as frequently as you like. You wouldn't want to change the filenames each time you commit; instead, you can see the history for a single file and can revert to the committed version of your choice. You also can add a comment with your commit to describe the changes you've made, so something like "Added a bass solo" would make it easier for you to find the version you wanted than remembering that you added the solo in "CT Remix - Tyrano's Lair 03.cpr".

Take it or leave it, but from using it both for personal use and in a team at work, I'd be very comfortable having Tortoise SVN as one of the only processes running alongside my DAW, both for stability and CPU cycles.

Tru dat.

I use it to submit Data Structures labs using the SubClipse plugin for Eclipse.

sonar producer 7 is the bomb-digitty

I just discovered a really disturbing problem in Sonar 6 PE yesterday. It seems in the majority of my projects some of the plugins have just stopped working. I can load them but they make no sound whatsoever. z3ta seems to be the most common one but I've also noticed it in Stormdrum and Sytrus. I'm at a loss. Nothing gets them working, I have to delete them and add them anew. It's rendered most of my project files virtual useless.

holy shit. You better bitch to customer support and ask for a refund or something, cuz that's pretty brutal man. (unless of course it's pirated)

[anosou]

Finally got started! I'm-a delivering un-tss right in your face when I'm done :3

It's not pirated, and I've owned it for a year and a half and never run into this problem. before that I had Sonar 3 and never had a problem. Maybe it's something I installed though frankly I have no idea how I'd figure out what.

[HoboKa]

:'( well I hope your resolve it dood

[prophetik music]

i need another song, since mine is so light on melodic source material (it's pretty, but it repeats way too much for what i want). i'm taking toxic seahorse as well for a verse and bridge melody.

and btw, it's rock that i'm doing.

[Jaybell]

Waaahgh! I was busy all of the last week and now I have like six days! And I have a bunch of things to do, too.

Whatever! I will try to get a thing in time! It will be okay, probably! But I can't promise it'll be super long and amazing.

Hoo boy.

[Steffan Andrews]

Sorry dudes, looks like I won't be done in time. I've conscripted zircon to collaborate with but we're both insanely busy. I've had to turn down a number of gigs in the last few weeks. I still want to do the track though, and I've already sequenced a number of sections that are sounding great.

[Lemonectric]

Aaaah this is going to be tight.

In the more traditional sense of the word.

I will definitely try to finish in time, though. A disappointing remix will be better than nothing.

[Steffan Andrews]

A disappointing remix will be better than nothing.

I didn't hear that.

[Argle]

I think I have to drop out. Sonar has fucked over most of my projects. I don't even want to work on anything as it might be gone the next time I load the project. I apologize to whoever requested Brinstar 1. If I get this problem sorted I will continue to work on it and post it in the remixes forum.

[Pavos]

Hmmm that deadline is coming awfully close... I'd better hurry :S

[Strati]

I'm still waiting until the night before.

[prophetik music]

subbed mine. it's not really done, but i won't be able to finish it before the due date because of the recording required. so i subbed what i had.

[Flexstyle]

Oh. Crap. I hadn't noticed it was the mixing stage (yeah I'm lame). Here's hoping I come up with something FAST!

[Bahamut]

Crap...there's no way I'm going to be able to finish, much less start my track - I've been too busy lately.

[The Joker]

I just gotta make an ending... then this birch is finished!

[anosou]

-insert comment about crap and not being able to finish-

.. just kidding I'll probably be done even though I've just gotten the intro down :/

[Bundeslang]

I Uploaded my Song (don't have time left).

BTW: Chickenwarlord, I didn't request the Kirby Song you remixed, like your description said. Or is it a tribute to me in a different way??

[The Mac Attack]

Thanks a lot for giving the Wand of Gamelon a go Bundeslang!

I had fun listening to it, and I hope you had fun making it.

[Devyn]

Uh oh the deadline is getting short. I'm expecting some killer stuff from you folks. Also, props to DJ Sammy G for choosing or accidentally landing on my track, not sure how it works.

Good luck, can't wait to hear all of it.
