Michael, why a chrisian song in Indian? Couldn't it have been at least in english?

also Michael, can we , when sending you the package, give a dedicated codename or something, so that we can find our songs amongst the many songs there, seeing that many of ths songs will sound almost identical...

I thought it would be fun to do something a little different. Name your master with you RO name. this way we know's who's is who's.

It's not Indian, it's ethiopian. there are some tablas though.

Michael, ive finished the song, can i upload it onto your ftp site or would your rather that i send it? 8-)

upload away, remember to name it after yourself.

should i upload it to the same folder? ,or you have a different directory for uploads.

Same folder

Well I uploaded me version, just be warned I followed SwivelPoint's motto... "No peaking, with maximum phatness." so it's maxed out but won't peak at all...

If you haven't emailed me yet, do so....

Michael,

So far, how many are participating ? Mine should be done by the week-end hopefully.

Richard

right now it looks like 10 are participating.

I'm missing a few regulars for our group project!!!

Michael,
What's the time limit?
Is is ok if I'm doing it on monday?

Best Regards,

I say everyone has until the 16th, monday after this coming one. It's not like we have a release date so if some needs more time, just let us know. thanks.

Hi,

Mine is uploaded 8-) . How are we going to proceed to listen to all the songs versions ? CD or Download ?

Richard

Still waiting for some. I Haven't decided how to distribute the masters... Majority rules, do you want it on CD or download?

Michael,

By download, it would be faster to get them (for me) . Will you rename them so we will go blind first ?

hey if they get renamed, could you number them (as their renamed names), and could you send out some emails to the owners of the songs with which number is their song? 8-)

I'm in for going totally blind, so that no boddy knows who did what.
Then it's easier to just listen through the numbers and deside what's one likes the best... let only music be the jugde!

I think that downloading is the easiest way for us to get the versions.
Then peoble can burn CD's themselves so Michael don't have to.

Best Regards,

Ok, So we'll do a download. If you want me to mail a CD just let me know and i'll drop one in the mail. First we have to get all the versions in.

This is going to be blind. I think you'll listen better if you don't know. Everyone will find out who's is who's in the end.

Also don't forget to remember what you did, maybe write it down somewhere so later on you can tell us.

Hey beenyg, won't you be able to recognize your own mix ? :wink:
...just kidding,

Regards,

Richard

I agree with the blind way too. Of course, matters of taste will also come in and play a role but it will surely brings interesting results by discovering the "how's" and "what's". It'll be a fun and very constructive way to learn and discorvering... for me :D

I prob will trillium, but im afraid that somone may have done something similar and i won't be able to.... just in case type of deal. But sure, going blind is fine,

One more question,

at the end, are we revealing whose is who?

Bennyg,

Yeah, I know...there will probably be more than 2 that will sound similar...I was just kidding. :)

Richard

Yes, in the end we will know who's is who's. This exercise will help everyone involved. Not only will we be able to hear what some different equipment on the same mix does, but we will also hear what the same equipment on the same mix with different people can do and how they used it.

Again, this is not a competition. No one outside of the participants are going to evaluate these masters. So don't get nervous. This is strictly a learning experience.

Day's are counting down!!! it's not to late to participate if you want to. If you have your's done, go ahead and upload it.

ok, my server was down for a day so i'm not sure if anyone tried to upload anything. If you tried to upload anything begining thursday night until friday night 11pm, I didn't get it. should be working now, at least I just tried it and it was. let me know if you have any probs.

I've got seven so far

If I'm missing anyone let me know. thanks

Yes; Michael Fossenkemper! 8-)
...and i think iznogood will give it a try too.

Best Regards,

I'll be uploading my version later today, finally found some time.

OMG!!! Studio B mastering!!! I had a dream a few days ago that you joined the forum!!! Wholy s**t talk about freaky s**t!!! Many of my friends have mastered at your studio, and ive heard very good work from you (im also in charlotte), im delighted to see you at this forum!

Good to see a fellow Charlatan...errr I mean Charlottean here.
Come by the studio sometime.

Well, much to my dismay, i won't be able to participate in this group project... It's too bad, because I had really been looking forward to it. But I guess that's the way the cookie crumbles, as "they" say. In any case, I think it was a terrific idea and I hope you'll do another one of these - or something like it - again.

Ken

Still missing a few files!!!!! Ken you still have time until We say when. So If you find that it's still not over and you've got a little time to knock it out, cool.

Mike,
I'm going to try and get to this today. At first listen to the file it sounds like it was limited fairly hard. There is also some distortion in the vocal range. Is this the way the song is? Maybe I should try to download it again.

yeah, the bgvs are pretty distorted. sounds like they were clipped during the recording or somethng.

Hi Joe,

Same things on my side, distortion in the vocal (female) and also feel like pretty hard limiting. I have downloaded it twice just to be sure but this is the way it is I guess.

Regards,

Richard

do we have a set final date? Im really excited to see them.... 8-)

If it's not too late, I'd like to give this a go.

yes, the mix is pretty compressed but not limited. There is a little distortion but there is a great mix in there somewhere. was mixed on a very old neve so there is some "analog warmth". there is a really good mix in there, you just have to dig a little. Did you guys want an easy mix?????

It's not too late so I'm going to upload the mix again and you can grab it. email me directions.
