StarwarsKid StarwarsKid Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2005-06-15 Posts: 506 Loc: Oregon, USA	Hey all. I've been working on music recording for the past year now. Since I've been part of the KORG community for a while I thought some of you may be interested in hearing it. I've got 5 songs posted to Soundclick.com http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=670878 Thanks for listening, Matthew _________________________ let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance- Proverbs 1:5

I'm getting a digital drumset soon (as in when I can afford the one I've been drooling over =) ). How do you make it, anyway? $\:\)$ _________________________ as long as it works - why fix it?

(accept the drums which are audio "loop" files in ACID wav format. ACID format has a timing mechanism in it which allows you to stretch the audio file according to the tempo set in the audio editing program) I have a pretty simple setup. Here's my equipment list: Home built AMD 3500+ PC w/1GB ram, 160GB HDD Prosonus Firebox (firewire audio/midi interface to PC. Think of it as a high-powered, external audio card) BOSS GT-8 Guitar effects processor Ibanez Electric Guitar Ibanez Electric Bass Carvin Electric/Acoustic Guitar M-Audio Axiom 49 midi keyboard Software: Cakewalk Sonar 6 Producer Edition That's it. I purchased the software for $400. It's a very good multi-track audio mixing program that gives you plenty of control over your audio clips and levels and has many plug-ins for effects and embedding of other applications.

If you're more into techno and looping you can substitute Sonar with Ableton Live. By the way, both can be downloaded from their respective websites as demos. Masken, You're the third person to make that comparison. (which is very interesting since these are three opinions for three different continents.) I had never heard of Mike Oldfield until my music was compare to his. I went to the local library and checked out "Tubular Bells". It has two 25 minute songs. Interesting stuff. I'm looking for some of his more contemparary stuff so I can hear it too. Do you have any recommended songs to listen to? -Matthew _________________________ let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance- Proverbs 1:5

Witto Witto MM club member Registered: 2004-09-29 Posts: 1828 Loc: Belgium	Maybe just some of his hits, "In Dulci Jubilo" "Moonlight Shadow" (with "Maggie Reilly") "Shadow on the wall" (with "Roger Chapman") "To France" (with "Maggie Reilly")

cj cj MM club member Registered: 2000-04-06 Posts: 1102 Loc: Brisbane, Australia	I love Mike Oldfield and have just about all his stuff. I'll be downloading your stuff as soon as I get home. Fave Oldfield atm is Platinum, Five Miles Out and Tubular Bells 3. But I recently dropped Crises back into the playlist. cj

StarwarsKid StarwarsKid Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2005-06-15 Posts: 506 Loc: Oregon, USA	Thanks CJ, I'll have to track down those Oldfield tracks and give them a listen. On Friday, an uncle of mine sent me some lyrics he wrote last summer, so I composed and recorded the music this weekend. I have some polishing to do but hope to have it finished by the end of this week (work gets in the way,.... again) $;\)$ Matthew _________________________ let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance- Proverbs 1:5
