Malcos Posted November 9, 2005 Author Share Posted November 9, 2005 Hmmm i should probably try to get the rns files up, rather than the rps, might help for others manipulations... Er, yeah, that's what I meant lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hy Bound Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 V- Static rave- I think what your problem is with the bass is the fact that you have a lot of the bass coming from EQ boosts instead of the bass synth. Usually you should tend to use EQ to sculpt the sound, not create it. The way I mastered it (since its an .rps I can't send it to you) I took the master bass level down from around 6 to about 1.1. I also took the bass EQ down some as well. The bass should usually stay behind a bit instead of taking up the whole mix. Another thing to keep in mind is that your master mix down should be about equal in high and low frequencies, the people who like bass will boost their bass knobs and the people who like treble will boost those; don't try to force feed them... Anywho, on to the lead, I usually put my lead through a unison set to about 50 dry; enough to get a little width, but won't sound soft. I tend to use mirror synths to add to the backing of some of my synths, which might help with adding depth to your synth. Also, if you patch a Scream into the Oscillator output and Audio input (Filter A, Filter it will stand out more. Otherwise, it is very well done. Keep it up! I'll comment on under the ice after class... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V___ Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 **awesomeness** Ooo!! Ok, I can agree with the bass idea, i can see it in all my bass-y peices now. That'l be a habit to break, thanks for that! I'l test out the unison and scream ideas when i get home, same with the mirror synth. Thanks dude, your a champ! I think i'm going to restart this almost from scratch, sound-wise. The rack is a bit cluttered, and i've found better ways of organising recently, plus the ideas with sound, so the next file posted here will be an .rns and cleaner!

V___ Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I hope people are still reading this thread.... Anyway, i need major help. In case you havnt noticed, i'm in the Full Metal Alchemist remix project, and theres a song I went with called Scar, which is mostly percussion, and no melody til just after halfway through. The melody consists of 4 notes (i, iii, i, ivA) played on brass. So this is my mix of it. I kept in mind the final eq shaping problems i had in my last tunes the whole way but when i got to the final EQ i found i had to dip the bass a fair amount, is that normal? I'v never been able to get a comfortable kick either, so is there some effect/technique/idea i'm missing? I'm not sure bout balance of volumes overall either. You'l want Microlab Pack 1 for this, its 3.0 but i just downloaded 3.04 so i'l be able to open any of those. Heres the file (rns this time ) http://www.geocities.com/v_gasm2000/ScarProp.zip (rightclick and choose save as, direct link wont work *shrug*) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcana Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Sorry, my hosting's disappeared for the time being, so your RPS files aren't online. They might not be around for a while, wait a month or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V___ Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Sorry, my hosting's disappeared for the time being, so your RPS files aren't online.

V___ Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Does anyone still watch this thread? I'm hoping so, cos i got a reason file i'm gonna upload soon, and i'd love to get feedback... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcana Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Post your files. Sorry, I don't have space anymore, since I've moved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sephfire Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 I'll have a few files up later. Granted they may not be the final mastered versions of my remixes, but they'll be the basic package. This "song files as tutorials" idea needs to be taken to the next level. I recall a year or so ago when Prot was trying to create a whole website where OCR folk could post their remix song files. I was rather disappointed that it never really took off. This thread at least needs to be sticked or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottPeeples Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 Been meaning to do this one for a while. It's the .rps file of my Synthetic Demon (E1M5) mix from the game Doom. Check it out if you feel like it, it's about 26mb though, so be prepared to wait a bit. http://www.scottpeeples.com/music/Reason_Files/synthetic_demon.rps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Compyfox Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 I thought you did this with FL4 or so... woha... you never cease to amaze me. Maybe I'll take a listen if Ihave access to Reason again. v2.5 or already saved as v3, Scott? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottPeeples Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 It was written with Reason 2. But I saved the .rps with v2.5 so i don't know which it'll take to open it. Oh and by the way, if anyone needs some space to put their .rps files, just let me know and you can put it on my hosting if you want.

We need more stuff on this thread! Perhaps we should also do a 'Reason originals' thread or something. What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sephfire Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 *bump* This thread needs more love. http://www.sephfire.com/music/purity.rps This is the "Walking on the Air" mix I made for AnimeRemix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V___ Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Very nice sephfire This thread does need more love, I'l start posting my PRC entries regularly or somthing.

Arcana Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 You guys would probably not believe it, but my music skills have increased exponentially because I've been able to look at example files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V___ Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Heres a cleaned up version of my entry to the PRC:A 10 comp. If you havnt voted, get there and do eet! http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=79996 <--- there ya go! Anyway, its in the zip file as an RNS (not RPS) because i'd appreciate any help with it. Even if its just 3-4 little tweaks on a synth, if it cleans up it, i'm happy. Feedback is also awesome.
