Bundeslang Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Frutty Loops Music Competition 5: Finally. VOTING STAGE. Voting Stage has begon. I used almost the same rules as previous FLMC's, but there are a little changes. Here's a little information about the contest: You can only use the stuff that comes with fruityloops, it's not obligated to give a FLP file, but if you submit a FLP file you get 3 bonus points in the voting stage (A nr. 1 vote). You may NOT use sytrus, wasp, soundfont player or anything else that must be purchased seperately. No extra plugins or samples. You may use the provided samples in the earlier contests, here are the samples provided by Prophecy in the earlier contest: http://bambombim.googlepages.com/FLMC4Pack.zip The source tune is: Mega Man 3 (All tunes). http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/nintendo/nes/index-gr.html Go down and find Mega Man 3 http://bambombim.googlepages.com/MegaMan3Midi.zip or http://bambombim.googlepages.com/MegaMan3.zip (Some Files could be the same).

Gollgagh Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I think that people don't feel very obligated to work very hard if you give them a wide open theme, like in a previous FLMC that had "Sadness" as the theme. We might want to stick to a single source or theme like the previous contests. Since you've already suggested Megaman and Godzilla why don't we choose one of those soundtracks to work with? Quote
Bundeslang Posted January 11, 2007 Author Posted January 11, 2007 The last contests had 30 MIDI's, and first I didn't want a source tune as well, but you are right. I leave Godzilla behind and say the source tune for this match is Mega Man 3. I don't want a difficult source tune because then it might be hard to mix a song. Source Tune: Mega Man 3. Good luck.

RocketSniper Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I might participate in this one if people can get those .zips up. Anyone have 'em? Quote
Bundeslang Posted January 12, 2007 Author Posted January 12, 2007 I might participate in this one if people can get those .zips up. Anyone have 'em? I found them. I will upload them to my site. http://bambombim.googlepages.com/FLMC4Pack.zip Quote
Gollgagh Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Don't forget that we have the .nsf as well: http://djpretzel.web.aplus.net/songs/original/Mega%20Man%203%20(1990)(Bunbun%20-%20Capcom)(17%20Songs)%5BWith%20SFX%5D.nsf Quote
Paladin Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Sorry if these are obvious questions, but this is the first time I've come across this competition. Firstly, can we use samples (wavs) provided in the "packs" folder of FL Studio (and anything else in this folder)? Also, do we choose one source from the game to remix? Or do we have to incorporate every source tune in the game into our mix? Again, sorry if I'm asking obvious questions. Quote
Gollgagh Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Choose any number of tunes from MM3 as you wish, be it one or all of them. Although, trying to do all of them would be ridiculous, in my opinion. As for what you can use, you can use anything that comes default with fruity loops except for what Bundeslang listed. Quote

Just one of the tunes is allright, but you may do two, three or more. You may submit more than one entry as well. Quote
Paladin Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 Sorry guys, but I'm strongly thinking about pulling out. I've just read through the FLMC4 thread. I just don't know if it's worth spending time on a mix if the competition is only going to get 3 votes or so. Not to mention that the last competition seemed to be poorly organised and generally badly managed. Granted, a different person is in charge of this competition, but I just can't seem to shake off the feeling that this competition is more hassle than it's worth. Quote
RocketSniper Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 Well this is pretty crappy. None of the players I've installed will play it - apparently the .nsf isn't in .nsf format. Quote
DDRKirby(ISQ) Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 yeah FLMC isn't a really established compo, and to top it off, its been on shaky ground recently, so if you're not doing it just for the fun and challenge of making something good using FL defaults, you might not want to bother. Quote
Gollgagh Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 Well this is pretty crappy. None of the players I've installed will play it - apparently the .nsf isn't in .nsf format. It's working perfectly for me, and all I have installed is chipamp. Quote
RocketSniper Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 I got a different .nsf (with .frm file), and it works great off of Zophar.net. I'm working on something but as of now it's HolyshitomfgwhatwasIthinkingthissucks, With luck, it'll get to omgIcan'tgetsomeofthesesynthsright so I can submit it. Quote
Bundeslang Posted January 15, 2007 Author Posted January 15, 2007 I have set up a small site about the contest. http://bambombim.googlepages.com/flmc You can find the information given in the first post there. The songs will be hosted at this site as well. Great to see a competition forum, I was always hoping for it. Hope everyone find this new forum. Fun to see this coming up during my first contest. I will PM TO about information because I'm the runner of this competition at the moment. Thanks DJP. Quote
Bundeslang Posted January 16, 2007 Author Posted January 16, 2007 here goes...Top Man FTW! Great, I can't wait to check it out. In the meanwhile I have done a small song by myself. It is a remix from Gemini Man and there's a little from the Weapon Receive tune in it as well. It's here: http://bambombim.googlepages.com/flmc I'm not hoping to take first place with this. Quote
The UnMod OutKast Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 Say Bundeslang, can we get a list of all the people that are going to participate? Quote
Gollgagh Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 He doesn't know. I'm gonna try something for crying out loud. Quote
Bundeslang Posted January 18, 2007 Author Posted January 18, 2007 He doesn't know.I'm gonna try something for crying out loud. I don't know and I can't know. Some users could have started something without posting it and also some users say they will participate and then something happends and they don't have any time left. I will see who are participating. The more, the better. There's still enough time to mix a song. Quote
Sir_NutS Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 oh what the hell, I'm doing an entry. Let's see if my FL skills aren't too rusty. Quote
DDRKirby(ISQ) Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 oh what the hell, I'm doing an entry. Let's see if my FL skills aren't too rusty. snap! looking forward to seeing this... Quote
Bundeslang Posted January 18, 2007 Author Posted January 18, 2007 snap! looking forward to seeing this... oh what the hell, I'm doing an entry. Let's see if my FL skills aren't too rusty. This could be fun, take at least an hour and my song can't win anymore. Quote
DDRKirby(ISQ) Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 My song's pretty much in some of the finalizing stages now--so it's pretty much done (though I might allow for some minor modification if people give me feedback i agree with). Quote
RocketSniper Posted January 21, 2007 Posted January 21, 2007 Bump. I've gotten so used to some of my synths that it's hard to go back to 3xOSC... and my ears are hurting for it. So, yeah. I've got about 1:00 of acceptable sounding song. Question though, can we use stuff we've recorded ourselves, such as beatboxing or singing? Quote
