What? does this mean that if i submit something i will automatically win!! alright!!! j/k

i wouldn’t mind if the date was extended a while, as i have not done anything impressive… Ive done a couple loops, but none that i think would win. perhaps another week would allow me to get something good? what say?

Well im happy with an extra week. Im on a temp computor for a while until my one is finshed being upgraded so i prolly won’t be able to put my loop in flash. So will it be okay to have it just as a download (you’d get better quality)

I just caught this thread. If the due date’s been officially extended a ways beyond June 7, please count me in. This sounds like great fun.

I have a few questions / thoughts …

1. What criteria will be used to judge the winner? Are we targeting a certain style, tempo, vibe … ? Maybe future battles can be more specific? Just a thought.

2. Compositions should be COMPLETELY original in both melody and rhythm. If we’re just splicing someone else’s work on top of another program’s drum loop … hmm … seems sorta lame-o. Maj is right – comps should be hardcore original. The playing doesn’t have to be entirely organic, but the musical arrangement does. I wonder if I’m making any sense!!! (-:

3. Can we just submit the mp3?

LOL. I was just bustin’ yer chops there. 🙂

What program(s) did you use? I’m pretty heavy into Nuendo, but Samplitude is looking better and better.

I used Fruityloops 3.3 - I used Sound Forge to do my voice, then brought that into fruityloops. Oh and during the trippy little break there’s a drum loop in there that I made with a demo of mixman studio.

Now how is nuendo? i have heard of it; samplitude I’ve heard of.  
The main ones I use now are Fruityloops and Cool Edit

Well i made the drum **loop** in mine and i carefully layed it over a 2 second sample off a timeless classic so if fits just right. Surely thats as creative as doing something else but useing your own work…

As i said, il post mine and im sure if people think its wrong they won’t vote.

Nuendo is great. I’ve enjoyed learning it. Samplitude is more transparent though; more depth and punch than Nuendo. I use the Aardvark Q10 for my soundcard and breakout box. It’s been great for home recording.

How long have you been into digital recording? Ventured into the VST arena yet?

On another note, have you checked out the Studio Projects C1 mic yet? Killer mic, rivaling the expensive German classes, only waaaaaay cheaper. Amazing vocal mic, especially considering the price. It does really well on acoustic guitar too.

When’s the deadline on the battle?

thats awesome prstudio! it would sound perfect on a design site! one thing though: are our submissions supposed to be created from loops, or are they meant to loop continuously?

looping or non looping i don’t think it matters now at this point.

I think the new date is the 14th if i’m not mistaken?

It’s Friday the 13th. Deadline is June 14. I’ll have my little ditty posted tomorrow. Hammer falls at 11:59pm, right? (-:

It’s June 14 … 10:45pm MT. Just in the nic of time. :rambo:

The file size is rather large. We musicians hate compression.

Belly up? Hmm … Can we just make a new one with better rules and guidelines; something more “official” perhaps?

This one was pretty “official” but i geuss it would up to a mod. I listened to yours Dex and its pretty good. It reminded me of some 80’s rock and roll. Well done.
