hmm well they arent usually ugly. I try not to associate with them. that way it lowers my chance of a drunken mistake

Aaron i was just kidding.

i'm sorry to disappoint everyone, but i will not be uploading a song as it is .32mb too big for soundclick

i was a little dismayed when my dad wanted to move into this place with me

lucky it was only one bedroom

Dumb down the bitrate?

how does one dumb down the bitrate?

vaccinate it so it gets autism

When you go "save as mp3" you should have options to choose the bitrate. It can be as low as 32kbps but that sounds crap for anything except simple talking. For music the minimum for decent quality is like 128kbps, 320kbps is the highest quality usually for mp3 audio. The files take up space accordingly.

I disagree with 128 kbps being a good minimum as it sounds like crap to me, 192 kbps is about where my cutoff point is most of the time unless a track is percussion heavy.

V2 and V0 rips ftw

metal up your ***

You can get by with 128 it just isn't brilliant.

i'll do it tomorrow after i record the solos for the song

What sort of song is it?

it's an epic prog metal song. more prog then metal though

Nice, hope you can upload it soon.

wow being born from a corpse. wacky.

You can but I hear irritating artifacts in the sound 70% of the time and sharper frequencies seem "damp" around the edges at 128 kbps. This stops being a big issue around 192 kbps I find, to a very small one.

The production of the song and the quality of the equipment it is being listened through is really the determining factor of whether it will bother people though.

yeah i have a FoT rip thats 128 and it sounds like ***

The point I'm trying to make is if he needs to put his song at 128kbps just to get it on soundclick, it isn't the end of the world.

I spose so

supposedly results in some odd static in the track, so cool

I've always figured you make those by starting with the picture and coding it backwards, pretty cool trick.

That's hell clever that formula trick. Chu would love it.

Any of you cats follow the Guinness Premiership?
