gice i think s&l exploded or something

FA 12-28-2006 01:55 AM

yea it became fun for a moment

Surf 12-28-2006 02:05 AM

it won't last

FA 12-28-2006 02:11 AM

of course not

Surf 12-28-2006 02:29 AM

I think its stopped now anyway. i missed all the excitement.

also, how do i turn something from acid into an mp3 or something that'll play through a media player?

FA 12-28-2006 02:54 AM

guess not, anyway, in ACID go to:

File-->Render As...

Window comes up and I usually save as .wav cuz to render as .mp3 I think u have to register or some shee. Anyway, to convert the file to .mp3 I use audacity...which is a free program. I'd consider getting it because .wav files are huge...

Surf 12-28-2006 03:24 AM

wow. just saw the picture.

anyway, I managed it render it straight as a mp3 without having to register, so here's my first go at something, ultra simple and pilfered from other songs.

I made a thread about this on *eek* Sputnikmusic community's forum. Let's see if that way the administrators will give [size=8][B]US A MOTHERFU[B]C[/B]KING MODERATOR FOR ONCE AND FOR ALL[/B][/size]. I hope it's pixies, despite he's not around at all and he doesn't even give out constructive criticism for the masses, but hey.

[size=7]IN THE CITY OF THE BLIND, ONE-EYED PEOPLE ARE KINGS[/size]

Better than nothing, I suppose.

TheBigMachine 12-28-2006 03:36 AM

Why don't you do it? Or dont you want to?

did u download loops or create your own? if you downloaded where'd u get them? (just curious)

Anyway, the guy is annoying kinda lol..I hate saying this cuz I'm 100% guilty of the same infraction, but it sounds too ... redundant? for a lack of better words. Mix it up a bit, more melodies, beats etc...ugh i'm a hypocrite..

TojesDolan 12-28-2006 03:47 AM

It would be stupid to say "hey I know what the forum needs mod me", besides I'd prefer to bitch to someone rather than do it myself. Also, I want to continue posting my material and being able to critique without the stigma of being a moderator, because I'd get mostly c[I]o[/I]ck suckings or "boos you suck at modding and ur worse at writing".

So no. That's not really my role in this place. :)

FA 12-28-2006 03:50 AM

i'd like to be a mod..but with limited responsibility....and it will never happen anyway

I sampled them from massive attack songs and stuff like that. the guy is tom waits, one of his spoken word tracks. I couldn't get the back ground stuff off the track so there's a bunch of annoying noises. But I'm going to start mixing up the beats n bass and stuff and something a bit more melodic. Just need some more loops/stuff to sample.

FA Tojes or Pixies would all be good choices for mod, any mod would be good tbh.

TheBigMachine 12-28-2006 03:54 AM

Fair enough, fair enough.I understand that. I guess that'd be the same for people like FA and Surf. Maybe not FA

FA 12-28-2006 03:58 AM

wait what did i do?

I have lots of good loops but a majority of them are trash so I end up making my own ditties sometimes.

By the way, I think you can render as mp3 for so many times...if I remember right...before you have to register.

anyway, here's the latest song i've been workin on...needs lots of work:

Surf is a great critic and even better writer, but needs to tell the thin line dividing your own tastes at writing and other people's styles, and how to judge each and every one of them. :p

A bad of which most of us at S&L suffer, so heh.

But objectivity is not part of the job of a writer so disregard the comment.

Justin also needs a bit of the good ol' fashioned internets before he's ready. Besides, pixies' been eager to get this from day one. Parallel to Burt, maybe.

Reference see: First post of your very own community thread. :p

FA 12-28-2006 04:01 AM

aww i need more internets

TheBigMachine 12-28-2006 04:03 AM

I was nominating you for mod, but Tojes said no.

Sorry, double post cant be bothered editting. I dig you and surfs music. Hook me up with some of your influences.

FA 12-28-2006 04:07 AM

[url]http://www.myspace.com/lilyandparrotsmusic[/url] --- it's a new myspace GO ME, it's boring cuz i don't do anything to it really and i made it a couple days ago

influences for stricly electronica:

Quoted for tr00f

And FA: do you just download loops and stuff from the internet? And I've got a key-gen so I can just reinstall if i need to register. The new song is cool, it sounds alot like midi (fault? i don't know). next on my list of things to figure out is the synthesiser/midi keyboard thing that comes built in.

And I dont listen to much electronica really. Trip hop is cool, so like Dj shadow massive attack portishead etc. And kid a/amnesiac era radiohead i suppose. And the new thom yorke album. I know FA doesn't like radiohead though.

Eh, I just felt that people who are not involved in our little gay community are welcome, as long as they don't come here to troll a poor dumba[size=2]s[/size]s whose only sin is not being good at writing. How odd.

AND YOU KNOW I LIKE YOU A LOT JUSTIN GTFO

[QUOTE=Surf]Quoted for tr00f

That's our sin, young man. Every writer's sin. :(

FA 12-28-2006 04:11 AM

yea i get loops off of torrent sites usually. MIDI? eh..not exactly what I wanted, but I guess that's fine hah. What synth/midi thing? I've missed this apparently

pullin out the old username i see...ilu too. I didn't like the trolling at first either to be honest, but the kid brought it upon himself..

TojesDolan 12-28-2006 04:13 AM

[B][size=6]OK LAST TIME I PUT MY HANDS IN THE FIRE FOR THIS SH[B]I[/B]T FORUM, FROM NOW ON I WON'T GIVE MY OPINION ON MODERATING, THREADS THAT NEED TO BE CLOSED, THINGS THAT SHOULD BE ADDED OR LIKEWISE, IMPROVING OUR COMMUNITY. LET VERMIN EAT EACH OTHER. THAT BEING SAID, HELLO, I'M RETIRING FROM BEING A GOOD USER AT ALL AND NOW I'LL JUST BE ME. THANK YOU.[/size][/B]

FA 12-28-2006 04:13 AM

hah where'd this come from.

You tone it down fella...we don't need them big bold letters clutterin' up these boards ya hear?

K..in all seriousness...wait..i don't know where this outburst by you came from tbh

Surf 12-28-2006 04:16 AM

Tojes: This is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning

And i don't know, i just call anything that sounds like a beeping noise midi. the part that was most like it was the middle section, the start was fine and the ending. and its the soft synth thing.
