Chavous Posted December 21, 2006 Posted December 21, 2006 i seem to have fallen into the same category as sammyG I've had a sore throat for about week now...sorry, I can't enter.
Flik Posted December 21, 2006 Posted December 21, 2006 I dropped a manhole cover on my hand and am in a bit of pain, so maybe I'll just try and belt out a random humming / oooh'ing / aaah'ing thing tonight for fun. I could care less if it placed or if anyone liked it. Gotta do something to take my mind off the throbbing pain.
Kitsuta Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I've finally done the main recording for the song. Listening to the last part, I'll probably redo it though.. anyway, all that's really left is tuning up. Lots and lots of tuning up.
zykO Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 is it just me or are entrants droppin like flies?
Kitsuta Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Is it just me or are there still plenty of entrants who didn't get sick?
Foxhull Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 there is a possibility that i won't enter, but if i can, it will be melodic oohs and ahs, due to time
DjSammyG Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Dude, I'm totally still entering. I'm doing final recording tomorrow, and sending in a finished product. Hooray for throat betterment!
DragonAvenger Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I have a recording that was a first run through, but due to having a cough might be the final thing. Anyone want to help a not-know-how-to-add-reverb person out? PM me!
Nineko Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I really wanted to enter this, but I couldn't write lyrics Hey, maybe someone who isn't entering because of voice issues has some lyrics to lend me? Just asking.
The Mac Attack Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Well, I submitted my non-voting entry around 10 days ago so there's at least one thing to listen to.
Jillian Aversa Posted December 22, 2006 Author Posted December 22, 2006 I really wanted to enter this, but I couldn't write lyrics Hey, maybe someone who isn't entering because of voice issues has some lyrics to lend me? Just asking. You don't have to have lyrics, good sir.
Malcos Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Damn it, I just won't be able to record, I just haven't got the time or energy to do it!
Jillian Aversa Posted December 22, 2006 Author Posted December 22, 2006 Aw, that's too bad. Two days, people! (Well, technically one, if you don't count today since it's Friday...)
Flik Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Heheheh...I don't know what I'm thinking when I do stuff like this. A bunch of out of tune Ooo'ing and Ah'ing, mixed with some pseudo beatboxing and playing of the strumstick (I just can't help myself!). Playing a string instrument with a gimp finger was fun too! I actually don't like how it sounds, mainly since I haven't worked on music in many many months. I also just completely winged everything with no planning or practice, but hey, this is all in good fun right? After some more minor level adjustments I'll PM you the MP3 link.
Jillian Aversa Posted December 22, 2006 Author Posted December 22, 2006 I'll PM you the MP3 link. Everybody read the first post! I expect submissions to be emailed to me directly, according to the guidelines. Just as a heads up... I'm considering possibly extending the deadline a few days. So many people have commented that they got sick, and I just woke up this morning with terribly swollen tonsils (was gonna spend all day recording), so it might not hurt to give people a little leeway. If you're not sick, though, please plan on getting your stuff to me by the original deadline! I haven't decided yet whether or not it would be worth it to extend the process.
DjSammyG Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I think I'm done. Man, I can't wait to hear and vote on alla these!
Leon K. Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I get access to my recording stuff to-night. So I'm going to get it all done, if everything goes according to plan. Btw Gears of War = Win
prophetik music Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 no chance of me putting something together between now and tomorrow. i thought the date was the 27th =( i can't wait to hear what comes from this! good luck to all the mixers!
Kitsuta Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 I managed to finish my entry, but unfortunately it fails. Hard. That track was very difficult to sing to.. it didn't help that I couldn't sing WHILE it was playing because my recording set up consists of a pair of speakers and a crappy headset. Hopefully next time I'll find a way around that.
Flik Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 Dude, don't worry about it. Doesn't matter how much your stuff sucks or even if you don't think you're that good. This is all in good fun. Plus, can't gain experience without trying, you know?

Plus, can't gain experience without trying, you know? I'm not upset. I just have to figure out a way to record while it's playing without recording the song itself again.

Plus, can't gain experience without trying, you know? I'm not upset. I just have to figure out a way to record while it's playing without recording the song itself again. record the background music to a cd, or sync it to a mp3 player. The listen to it on headphones on a low volume, and record and sing off the mike?
DjSammyG Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 Issue with that is that then you have to re-sync the vocal track with the tune, which is very hard to do, at least if you're me.
Nineko Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 Issue with that is that then you have to re-sync the vocal track with the tune, which is very hard to do, at least if you're me. Come on, I always do that when I add vocals to a song.Just use a software like Goldwave and keep on use the undo thing.

In fact, the music is recorded louder this way.
