analoq Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Follow these steps: 1. Take a video game MIDI file 2. Run it through an orchestral sample library 3. Post it to YouTube with game footage. [highlight]Important:[/highlight] Don't credit the original MIDI author. What do you get? You get the ForgottenFactory YouTube channel. You see kids, before OCR existed I would transcribe video game music to MIDIs and post them on the web. Not taking kindly to their behavior, I attempted a debate on their channel but they have a habit of deleting my posts. Oh well. Now, MIDI rips are a dime a dozen, so why am I singing this guy out on OCR? Well, they appear to be targeting fans of OCReMix with their friend invite spam. Not a big deal, but I thought I'd give folks a heads up anyway. cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
José the Bronx Rican Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 I wonder about a couple of my invites; I don't do much vetting there except to see whether it's one of those "time-share" or "make-money-at-home" channels. One user whose name escapes me has ripped a few of mine and of others' MIDIs and posted videos, and the only credit is deep in the channel's description. Better than nothing, I suppose. Still, I might come up with a plan for calling attention to the original MIDI transcribers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
