March Mix Competition - Its Voting Time Again!!!!

Right this is the 'official' topic of the March mix competition. We are tasked with producing the best mix we can of Creepjoint's (Cheddatom's band - a big thank you to them all) track Sapere Aude off their second album.

Download the stems here:-
[url="http://creepjoint.co.uk/sapereaudestems.zip"]http://creepjoint.co...reaudestems.zip[/url]

[color=#ff0000][size=5][b]We are going to attempt a blind vote this time chaps so [u]the entrants must not post a link to their final mix in the topic[/u]![/b][/size][/color]

[b]Instead upload your final mix wav somewhere (soundcloud, box.net, dropbox.com, wherever) with it set to private and downloadable, [u]then PM me the link[/u].[/b]

I will gather all the mixes, rename them to something arbitrary (there may well be an A.wav, B.wav and a C.wav if I'm feeling very very inventive) upload them to a freshly prepared soundcloud account and then open up the poll pointing it to said account.

For the sake of fairness I wont vote, but I will put in an entry. Once the poll closes I will disclose which mix was whose.

[i]NOTE if you do put a link to your mix in the topic you are inadvertantly disqualifying yourself since you will lose anonymity.[/i]

Enjoy, and best of luck to you all!

[size=5][b]The mixes are in![/b]

[b]Your efforts can all be found here:-

[size=6][url="https://soundcloud.com/bc-mix-competitions/sets/bc-march-mix-competition"]https://soundcloud.c...mix-competition[/url][/size][/b][/size]

NOTE this is still a MIX competition, some of these mixes would appear to have run into some heavy-ish limiting for level, feel free to turn your headphones/amp/laptop up and down and keep the levels equivalent to appreciate the mixes equally.

Good luck one and all!

[b]The results stand as follows:-[/b][list=1]
[*][b]Sapere Aude - mix A (1 votes [7.14%])[/b]
[*][b]Sapere Aude - mix B (5 votes [35.71%])[/b]
[*][b]Sapere Aude - mix C (0 votes [0.00%])[/b]
[*][b]Sapere Aude - mix D (3 votes [21.43%])[/b]
[*][b]Sapere Aude - mix E (4 votes [28.57%])[/b]
[*][b]Sapere Aude - mix F (0 votes [0.00%])[/b]
[*][b]Sapere Aude - mix G (0 votes [0.00%])[/b]
[*][b]Sapere Aude - mix H (1 votes [7.14%])[/b]
[/list]
Ok so I can reveal now that the mixes were:-

Mix A was skol303

As the mixes are going to be transcoded by soundcloud I have rendered at 48/24... the file size is 98meg- is that too big?

Mine was that sort of size , so just peel the spuds , do the veg, roast a joint ( a cut of meat of your choice ;) ) serve with gravy , consume , and your upload should be done , or just sit and watch the rugby in slow motion , either is good :D

Heh, uploaded in around 15 mins on 40mb fibre - gave me just enough time to do the joint... ;)

40mb fibre B) , I got my own advice wrong anyway :blush: , after roasting the joint , I turned to veg, fondled my spuds , and made a mess with the gravy :gas:

I really am trying to stay away from that 'just tweak a little more' thing I do... mostly due to being enlightened by[url="http://forum.cockos.com/showpost.php?p=260487&postcount=19"] this post[/url] by yep on the Reaper forum.

The thread itself is a great read also... B)

Mine's going to have to be a rush job again this month... but I'll certainly be submitting [i]something[/i], most likely by the end of this week.

So far I have the stems mostly prepped: drums gated and EQ'd, buses set up, etc. I just have to actually mix the bloody thing now!! :D

PS: I'm really digging this track.
