Hmmm the karate i went to must have been completely shit. I didnt even see blackbelts do any grappling moves. They thought themselves above it, it seems.
sorry for wasting your time, but the description isnt very descriptive.
I'm not trying to diss karate, it can be as effective as any other art for most people. I just think aikido's probably the best art for the smallest man. I dont believe any other art would teach the appropriate skills for someone to be able to wrist lock someone twice their size. Again, i'm biased, i admit.
But if you want to hurt them instead, reverse the grabtake your right hand and smash down on the elbow and break it so that now it bends the wrong way lol.
Heh, aikido is ALL these horrible moves. The point being that the safe move and the nasty one are one and the same, but with different pressure applied. If somone aikido locks somone, and they try to get up they'll just move to where the opponent is putting the extra pressure on themselves, instead of trying to force the opponent.
I dont know how accurate that is only because im writing it instead of doing it so sorry for any little errors.
Heh, no worries. I'll try write one, just to see how hard it is. Actually, just look for "Irimi" by "Hiroshi Ikeda". Theres a couple of them, but one of them is hilarious.

If you play it bacwards, theres a good chance no one will notice. If you slightly alter it, they will. The reason no one will notice the backwards song is that backwards songs sound shit mostly if you leave them backwards all the way through :)

Apologies, i didnt see your post. I could swear it werent there before.
Anyway, i've decided to give up the fight. Its about time i started learning to write anyway.
I was just on a buzz, and now its time to be over and for a new one to begin.

Yeah yeah, its made from original artists work. I claim the remix as mine, with the original artists being given credit as they would in any respectable real life set. Since I'm not making any money, what can they really get me for?
Heh, i'm gonna regret bringing this up :)
The work is at least partly MY intellectual property. The work i am uploading is not recognisable as any one artist.
Tell you what, i'll write to the artists them and email them, and if they do not reply, how about taking that as permission? It'd stand in a court of law as being permission through no denial. I'd be willing to try it anyway.
realised the legality. While you may thinking that the legal folks would just got after you.. you are mistaken.... they would go after who is hosting the illegal file which is NG in this situation.
Is it just me that feels like it would be negative publicity for the music industry if the industry was to try to take down a site full of legitimate artists? There would be a massive surge in hate for the industry i think, tho it is only speculation?
I believe it would cause its own death if its actions crushed young talent which could make them money in the future. So i'm pretty sure they would come after me, and i would accept the circumstances and explain my position.
I KNEW I SHOULD'VE KEPT MY FUCKING MOUTH SHUT.

The ones i'm aware of are acid and cubase. In cubase you can record to midi AND manipulate it, in acid you can just manipulate it and run it through software synthesisers.
Basically both go to wav i think, but you cant write a midi track in acid.
Does that make any sense
Does anyone know any free progs with this feature, or am i being lazy and should just look at the threads Denvish put up?

SpamWarrior: I think the third rule
# If you turn out to not be the original author, you will be responsible for any repercussions.
is basically a disclaimer for NG, saying that they're not going to get involved in any legal action regarding copyright. So basically, if you get sued for using copyrighted material, NG will wash their hands of it, and you're on your own. Despite RC's comment about NO COVERS, the Video Game genre is full of remixed versions or versions played on different instruments, and I'm fairly sure that most of those tunes are copyrighted to Namco/Nintendo/Square Enix or whoever.
Hmmm well the way i see it a cover is a tribute to the original in most cases, tho i'm not sure what mxpx meant to achieve by covering barbie girl..... (shameless plug for a shitty remix)
As long as the originals are credited, i dont see the problem with covers myself, but i have no power or influence so i'll STFU :)

Drop some feedback if you wanna..
You have a good sense of rythm, and that one with chirpy synth is nice. What i object to is imitation of US voices and styles, in people that arent from the US. If you're british, get fucking British, dont go fake and pose like you're an american. Even Roots Manuva sounds more British than you, and both his parents are Jamaican.
Sorry to be scathing, but hip hop should come from the soul, not a commercial image of what hip hop is.
Even GLC are more true than any US imitators, and i'm pretty sure GLC are taking the piss.

Hehe, indeed. But they've made a longer story of it:
"# You are making the legal claim that it is your own original work.
MY intellectual property, THEIR sources, so i'm a little confused on that.
# Loops you made from existing copyrighted songs are not your own original work.
I dont make loops. I make whole tracks and advertise them on here so people can review them and give constructive criticism.
# If you turn out to not be the original author, you will be responsible for any repercussions.
See first point, cos i'm a little confused, as to what my role is. Maybe by asking i'm just asking for trouble, but i'd like to know.
# You are giving permission to Flash authors to use your audio, free of charge.
Fine, its not like anyone wants to use my horrible madman shit anyway. And its not like its a copyrighted track that is being played, it is something made that i put my own creativity into to make, made from copyrighted sources.
# You will remain the owner and credited author of the submission."
I credit my sources where i can fit it in, and if i havent then i i've probably made the track name out the original artists tracks, such as Massif Amusement. Then all thats needed is a google search. Oops, my bad, i didnt realise Massif was a proper word, i thought Squarepusher stole it from youth culture. Anyway, just in case, Massif Amusement is a mix of squarepusher and weeksy.
So, even thought i'm juggling with fire, poking a tiger with a pointy stick etc, do i have to get out yet?
Apologies for starting a new topic for this, but i see it as relevant, as much of the software Denvish told us about is likely to be windows or mac only.
Here is something I got told about today, i have no knowledge of it apart from that it is cheap.
No idea of the quality, but it looks nice :)

Maybe linux isnt necessary, but its linux based. Something like you load the cd and a linux studio desktop opens up, and then when you take it out its back to normal.
Whether it works for windows or not, i forgot to ask.

Well I know a real trained Martial Artist coudl whip a boxers ass, but I dont think what im doing is good enough for me, I like boxing and karate, I didnt mean to make it seem like karate wasnt as good lol.

Heh. I was ok at it til i did it wrong and injured myself.
Thats where aikido differs from the punching and kicking arts. Its completely about defense. You cannot attack someone with actual aikido.Yeah thats what my karate place is about, I dont know anything about aikido though.
I mean by form, there is no such thing as an attacking aikido punch.
If somone gets a hand on your wrist, you move them so they want to move in a certain direction and exploit it.Oh yea my sensi tells us about a million things to do when someone grabs you.
How many of them end up with you controlling the opponents arm and having the chance to break it in at least one place? Aikido is about arresting people in a non damaging way, yet having the chance to break their arms in a real life, really dangerous situation ie fight versus two crackheads. No amount of punching will hurt a crackhead who is the same size or bigger than you.
What form people choose is personal. however since i have no time to make myself bigger and punch faster etc i choose the art of manipulating the enemy. I'm not saying i'm good at it, i'm not, just my personal preference.

Heh no one here would admit to screwing up, everyones too proud, myself included.
Depends what art you study regarding the music. For a hard style art, it'd be good physical training. For something thats less muscle and more timing and skill, ie tai chi and aikido something like that, learning new moves to music would only cause later confusion i reckon.
Of puttin up all my capitalism stuff into one thread, which the capitalists then ignore.
This way if i bump up the old thread i will get in trouble with the mods, and if i dont they win through sheer scheming.
The evil of capitalism is a social constant, so dont expect me to give up any time soon.

For an example go on a fileshare prog and but aikido vs karate to see the possibilities.
People think boxing training is brutal, or whatever training, they want to try doign the riot police aikido course in japan. I've only read about it and i'm scared of going. Crazy shit like an hour of press ups. You're only allowed off the mat to be sick or if your instructor says you can go. People have died of heart attacks doing the course.
Is there any other place that teaches its arts that severely? Not rhetoric, i'm just wondering how many crazy people there are in the world :)

Too clarify, capitalism is about the values of "fuckgeddabout everyone else, lets just think of me and mine"
People say these values are fine, yet they despise criminal organisations that have exactly the same values, but use different methods to the average man.
The methods are not so different to the mob however.
In the past violence was used to earn obvious power. Now people go behind the scenes and pull strings. In the past the mob owned newspapers, shops, whatever.
The ruling class owns it all, the entire system. Is it that hard to believe that someone can rule it all, when even uneducated gangsters could rule sicily, and have influence in the USA?
No arguments about why people would work without the incentive of material goods?
Have i completely blown you away by saying that people would like to do jobs that require more training, for the sheer pleasure?
Or are you just enjoying your expensive goods, locked in a bubble away from a real world of pain and misery?

Where tho? File sharing services have too much stigma cos of piracy for respectable people to be associated with them.
Actually, i think a msypace account could do it. Go on myspace.com, click music and get then artist signup. I dont think theres a limit on the meg per track, if you upload it to there i can easily download it.

It is, just because you think capitalism and insane human greed has only been around since the industrial revolution....
The Romans - Capitalists, you point out slavery that this has being going on for thousands of years.
If people who go seeking "opportunity" (Taking others lands and resources because they can) in order to increase their own gain, that is capitalism.
Just because it isnt pleasant doesnt make it not capitalism
Sure, you can try the bullshit about the african tribes selling each other to the white man.
These were people of simple values being taught the capitalist system.
They would have only sold the slaves if people would've bought the slaves
People say i shuld study economics and STFU? There you have it, supply and demand.

Sell some fucking nukes then, go on, sell some WMD to dictators, so you can start a war years later on the grounds that they are dangerous. Then go in, subjugate the people, enforce your culture upon them and steal the oil.
America bankrupt? BULL SHIT MOFO. It has nukes as part of its military power, it needs nothing else. Everyone else fears you, and you like it. Bully.
What can you do to sound files with this programme?
All i can do with soundforge is trim files down to fractions of second. All very nice, but i get the feeling theres sooo much more. Ie i heard rumour you can reverse sounds on it, but no one ever said how and i cant work it out.

The comment based on sample rate is mostly correct.
