I believe she was Olympic in proportion to some others, and maybe , the whole world got the chance to appreciatte and download a few tasters, that may, or may not have had influence on the numbers game, but at some point the music seems kind of judged by the numbers ,

which one ?

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1367193214' post='2062498'] Or at least [i]seen [/i]it. [/quote] Oh sh1t does that mean Ive got double vision aswell

Me , I LOVE it here , the knowledge ,the openness , the willing to share and give freely , the p1sstaking , the retaliation , the characters , the musicality, the lessons , the caring ,the help , the PMs , the telling offs , the ocassional vote ,the diversity and yet all with the a shared interest of the low end , did I say......... I LOVE it here .

[quote name='51m0n' timestamp='1367188756' post='2062461'] I havent had a chance to download it, but I got the PM, and another one, which I also havent had a chance to downbload, I'll let you know when I have so you can get your cloudy space back for whatever else you might want it for... [/quote] It could be mine , if you want to check the volume feel free , I did a radical EQ session and it seemed to enable a noticable hike in volume without busting the Kmeter

[quote name='SpaceChick' timestamp='1367181221' post='2062351'] De ja vue sweetie [/quote] I'm sure I've heard that before but On topic , Its not the sort of bunch I would want to join .

Cheers Paul , do you need special compressors for that trick , or should the std Reaper ones have that sort of functionality. I like the track too

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1367059493' post='2060737'] WEEKEND BUMP! ...why don't you switch off your TV set and go do something less boring instead? [/quote] I did, and I would like to thank Mr Skol303 for pointing the way to this marvelous competition. Thank you Mr Skol303 for pointing the way to this marvelous competition .

I am sure it will get there at some point but it is a bit stuck in Stoke ATM , dive in dudes , Chris is trying to move it on .

urgh , sidechain gates and compressors , I have entered a mix but will have do some further reading , I have only just got the fundamentals of EQ in my head , so thats pretty much what I have done

Hmmmm , I have already voted , so I guess that is me in the clear

[quote name='51m0n' timestamp='1366821595' post='2057699'] Yeah, it is a meter, it does nothing but show you how loud the track is (in a very average level way), set it to not go over 0 and you're done, render that. Simples! [/quote] I dont really get the meter thing , sorry , I can level the volume to 0db on the meter and render it to wav , if I insert this wav to into a new project and K-meter it , it is at -16db , It sounds quiet to me , but I am unsure how to get to a definitive level now !!

Wow , a great entry this month, I will need a couple more listens to a few of them ,

Sounds excellent, hope it goes great

It might seem odd , but I am not sure I can do much to what is already there , OK I get what Skol said about the number of dulpicate tracks , but there also seems to be a full LR mix on stems aswell Now I have done a few bits and will do a few more , but I am leaning toward a 'less is more' vibe with this one . Will I be cast into satans pit if I said that I quite liked the track

Fair play Bob , that is a big sound , lots of presence in there , and mainly plugins? this is stuff I havent got a handle on yet ,but think I should at some point . the topic is fine bud , it teased 8 entries , even with lighter evenings and work getting busier In all seriousness though , will the entries suffer when mundane sh*t like the garden, and outside chores, and making hay etc while the sun is shining , and golf (WTF) but hey , and riding a bike , and summer in general tempts the musos out side ? PS .......wear sunscreen

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1366672279' post='2055897'] It's got a sort of 'country' feel to it… yeah, sorry for using the C-word there … which is probably a hangover from the choice of track in this month's mixing challenge (I blame you 51m0n!). [/quote] Its another great entry there my man , I have just had a funny moment though , my daughter loves getting involved when she can , she is 12 , but she was sad when she saw your post , she said she can't listen to your song because you used the C-word !!! I only just realised it was C for Country

Cheers Skol , It was a bit of fun , but I wont let on what the accent was supposed to be , suffice to say an accent was all that was needed I was quite pleased the way it all sat in the mix , and I was surprised how well I could disguise the tone of my own voice for the 2 characters , I will listen to the others now , and then get stuck into the mix comp

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1366667207' post='2055852'] Yay! POTATO BREAD!!! [/quote] I got a potato clock once , I was gutted , I was late for work , I should have been up at seven

OK , I'm in , it is a bit silly but it might raise a smile [url="https://soundcloud.com/lurksalot/leapfrog"]https://soundcloud.com/lurksalot/leapfrog[/url]

[quote name='urb' timestamp='1366275993' post='2050319'] Hey man - just do what you can - this month is looking eerily quiet as it stands - I know it's a lot of effort to do something good but it's really just a bit of fun - would be nice to see others getting involved or failing that giving feedback on some of the tunes posted - it's about getting creative and making mistakes and learning something (I think) - imagination is just as important as technical skill - and hey if you can combine the two - job done! Anyway hope some other folks are doing something too Mike [/quote] Cheers Mike , I will have an entry in Defo , I have sussed the accent I need and a trick to get it some where near , but I have to re-record the vocal in the wardrobe , its the only place in the house without a noticeable reverb , It might not be quality , but it might raise a smile or two

yep get stuck in everyone , its a great cause and something bass wise to get involved in ed to add .. I am not sure there is a 'right ' gig for this thing , I think it is a momentum thing , and the sooner it gets a next gig the better , the money may trickle in, but if it gigs it creates and carries its own history , this will give it more heritage and a greater pulling power for the pennies , just keep it moving , don't let the grass grow

I think that some of these fantastic players can be very inspirational BUT, I prefer threads like this, because it offers far more encouragement in a 'real life' kind of way. I only recently started trying some home recording , and boy was I taken aback and intitially was very dissappointed at the work I had to put in to get a track sounding half decent , but in the band I seem to cut it OK . Very similar to the OP , and I have to say, just realising that I was normal in this regard was quite encouraging
