Welp, I'm done with my song and I'm actually really proud of it despite the genre not being something I'm used to producing. Maybe I'll make two songs for my giftee :P

audiorgy
Any poon left for me?

Create an instance of the NN19 digital sampler and load it up with the sample you want. If you're sample is small enough, that will work. If you have a lot of samples I'd recommend using either the redrum or you can learn how to use the zones in the advanced sampler. If your sample are really long, I'd recommend using a free app like audacity to chop it up a few times and use it as several different samples to save yourself some trouble.

Lol, don't worry, i'm guessing a lot of us are having to go out of our norm to make songs for peoples. Hell I'm going to have to attempt some sort of electronic music or something xD

Exactly. A lot of us are out of our element, but that was a risk you ran when you signed up. I typically only produce dnb. Guess what genre I'm not doing?

Now, it would probably be wise for us all to stop complaining before someone works out a flow chart of who's doing who.

Have you tried turning down your headphones or getting monitors? I rarely turn the volume of my headphones past a quarter of their max. In fact, the only time I turn them up to half of their max is when I'm checking the final product just to make sure it still sounds good to kids who love ear damage.

Clearly the pun was intended >:C

Everyone falls into weird habits. I have a tendency to pan things willy nilly ineffectively. I'll layer maybe four or five snares, then send them all in different directions. End result: pans become barely noticeable. Thing is, panning the entire snare to the left or right sounds kind of awkward. Leaving it mono seems like a bad choice/ seems boring. Panning the snare layers in all different directions helps me sleep at night.

If it's too loud, you're too young.

I'm in.

I like to hear the sweet dulcet sound of babies sleeping. Ever so gently making euphonious whispers in their sleep. In the midst of all this I want a guitar solo to creep in. The guitar of course has to be in the same room as the babies. It has to be gentle yet powerful. I really don't care how the babies respond to the guitar. In fact, the angrier you can make them the better.

If the above can't be satisfied though I'd like to hear a song using just a piano and a drum kit. Anything can be done to the instruments so long as the song only has those two instruments in there.

I don't actually know anyone at this reunion. I just kind of snuck in to get free shit in the hope that everyone would automatically assume I'm someone else's friend.

Snappy birthday ;)

I use glue and paper to make my music with. It's not as fancy as what you kids have these days but it gets the job done.

Sentences? Fuck that. I write haikus to help guide my song writing:

Drum rhythm is fast
a chromatic melody
Once more drum and bass

Or how about this one...

Feeling lack of art
Want to write something sassy
Maybe I.D.M.

Ok, I know they're kind of bad but they help :(

Congratz guys. Good luck with the fame and fortune ;)

Well, I for one know I'm going to make it to the project. It's so painfully obvious that my demo was the only good one. Seriously, I'm amazing I know. In fact, why did any of you try? We all know Nal is gonna fall so in love with my song that he'll just submit my track as a single. Then when the cash comes rolling in, I'll get like a bajillion record deals. I'll turn them all down of course owing my fame and popularity to Nal but my fame will sustain itself for the rest of my life. Each year, Nal will do yet another Quarl EP and we'll be able to sustain our happy lifestyle for years to come. I'll have 8 children, each of them named after me. They will carry on my legacy, birthing a perfect civilization.

I don't waist any time writing music. I shit gold.

For serious.

Mother of troy I posted that all the back in April. In any case, I finally got around to ordering a copy. Awesome stuff man! Awesome awesome awesome! Best part of ordering it through NG is getting free newgrounds stickers :3

Surround sound?

Lucky bastard. I'm forced to do things the old fashioned way with glue and paper.

You guys are missing the point. Better established artists have a greater fan base and can attract more attention to a project. While it would be ideal to fill up an entire cd with lesser established artists, the odds of selling your tracks will increase if more people end up looking at a project.

Lets look at a hypothetical situation. PX9 only submitted one song back in 07. To this day it has over 57,000 downloads and 395,929 listens. Look at your latest track. Compare the amount of downloads px9 had on that one song to the amount of downloads you've accumulated in total for all of your songs. I'd be damn well impressed if you had even half the number of downloads that one song has.

Fact: working with bigger names will help you out in the long run in terms of what it can do for exposure. It sucks to sacrifice space on a project for people that might not necessarily "need the exposure as much," but when it comes right down to it I really doubt amateur producers need commercial exposure.

Grammur :D :D

yeah, I was gonna say, there are a ton of subs. I'm curious why we aren't seeing anything from any of the bigger names like cnb, paragon or bounc3 though. It's probably be really good exposure for the album if someone could convince one of them to make an exclusive track for the cd.

Depends. If the melody was obviously taken from a popular song with out reference or credit, then that's plagiarism. The problem with melody is that you really only have 12 tones to be creative with so repeating themes within genres are bound to crop up all the time. I've said it before but I'm not sure if I said it here on newgrounds. Creativity is a lie. A more honest synonym for creativity is self exploration.

Commence flaming.
