Priestman Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Alright I have been to this site many times in the past but I never cared enough to register or post on the forums. But now I'm older and I enjoy talking to people and supporting awesome communuties like this (I was a wee-bit of a shutin). I love ALL of the work on this site. Out of all the music I have on my computer from mainstream bands, my most listened to album is the Chrono Symphonic. I love you guys I have a question tho. Do you guys make your own stuff as well? As in not just remixes but original stuff? Just wonderin because sometime in the future I may have a request for some original stuff. (I'm an amateur Animator and I prefer to have unique music rather than jackin songs from the internet). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverCoat Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 most of us do, yes You can get all my original music here: http://soundtempest.net/soc/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zircon Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Nah, I wouldn't say "most of us" because there are hundreds of ReMixers on this site. But there are a bunch that do, such as myself, tefnek, Rellik, Steffan Andrews, bustatunez, Audix, Tweek, sgx, and Siamey to name a few.

Priestman Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 Awesome! How would one get into Remixing? I've always been interested but the only instrument I can play is the Piano. Everything here is amazing so I was always interested Well thanks for that answer Keep fighting the Good Fight! --Priestman-- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matney X Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I'm not a remixer, yet, but I make my own stuff. www.myspace.com/fewsandtwo is the most recent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steffan Andrews Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 As well, you'll find a handful of OCR veterans also work professionally in the industry as composers, and not just for video games - television, film and other media too. Some were established before arriving at the site, while others used OCR as a place to learn and experiment before building a career.

starla Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Most of the remixer/forum profiles will link to the artists personal webpage, if they want exposure on their originals/other remixes/what have you, that would be a good place to check as well.

Steffan Andrews Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I love it when people ask "what program" you use. It's like asking a mechanic what wrench he uses to fix cars. The sequencer is the main frontend, but there can be many components. In a modular sense, the sequencer in its basic form just tracks the MIDI data you put into it, and it offers tools to manipulate and manage that data. It's the synth plugins, sample libraries, hardware sound sources, and sometimes a very large and convoluted setup of networked computers to achieve the entire scope of someone's capacity to produce music - vis-a-vie, the "Studio." True, you can be entirely in one environment on one computer, in your favorite sequencer. I assume that's the "program" you are referring to? In that case, there are many out there, some with lots of sound sources and effects included, some with few. So in a broader sense, it would be better to find out what sequencer someone uses, along with what virtual (and/or non-virtual) instruments they're using. In addition, if you like the sound of some of your favorite tracks on OCR, PM the ReMixer and ask them what they used to produce it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Priestman Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 The sequencer was what I was referring to. I figured you couldn't produce those works of art with just one "easy-to-use" program How do the products from using a single environment sound? Are they worth it? I would love to learn how to remix but pretty much the only resources I have available to me is my high-end comp, fast internet, and piracy. I have no money to spend unfortunately Thanks! --Ben-- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see some friendly n00bs Please make yourself at home. I use(d) ModPlug Tracker (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ModPlug_Tracker), which according to some people is difficult to learn; this I disagree with. But maybe it's just me.

starla Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 There is also a remixing forum, if you search through the threads you'll find many questions similar to yours that have already been answered, as well as quite a bit of information about different programs that people use to make music. http://www.ocremix.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=12 Good luck!
