... and the way I was talking up this site for the last few years you'd think you would have registered a long time ago. It's about time! :D

Holy cow! This is getting more and more real by the minute! Slack, everything looks great so far.

GET THE REAL THING!!!! OK, if you need votes put me down for real CDs. This is my one and only shot at stardom, so as far as I'm concerned the more professional looking the job is the better. :D I offered to put up a little more money just to help out but since you're not crazy about that...

If I counted correctly in the Submitters thread there are 34 submitters. If there are 42 sets accounted for that mean you have 8 pre-orders so far. I included a pre-order with my submission, so that means at most you have 7 pre-orders from non-submitters, even fewer if any other submitters...

Already did! I included a pre-order with my submission package, so I'll get two copies. Slackmaster, the idea about paying per minute is pretty good. And fortunately for me that doesn't apply to my 5:08 submission for this volume. If it did then I'd be out $38.50 just for my submission, then...

Slack that certainly sounds reasonable to me. You're sticking to your original submission process and doing the best with the resources you have. Can't argue with that. I gues there's another option you haven't brought up. Maybe because you don't want to be the one to do it? In any case...

I'll risk speaking for the rest of my "band" (OK, one other guy), but this sounds OK with me. Like Jaymz said, anything to make this more like a real CD sounds seems worth considering to me.

Wow, I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking the same things you guys are talking about. I bought a copy of the first compilation and heard a lot of good stuff, so I was pretty nervous about commiting us to a song for this one. I've been working with another guy off and on for over three years...

Yeah, I had problems with my Artec. But then again, I did *not* say Artec sucks, just that I had problems with mine. I might have just gotten that rare bad drive from them, who knows. I just took a chance because it was so cheap and in this case I got what I paid for. I still have it...

I started with EX CD Creator but switched to Nero. It was pretty intuitive and it comes with some nice extras too (love the WAV editor!).

I bought an Artec about six months ago because it was chaep (about $50) and came with a full version of Nero, which I love. It worked for a while and now reports continuous problems (a variety of messages). I bought this on to replace an older one that came with the PC, so I put the old one...

Cool, n-Track hung in there and I was able to finish our song and get it in the mail yesterday! I'm kind of bummed though. Our final takes were performed about as well as we ever played that song but for some reason I couldn't get a mix I was really happy with. It's OK, but not as good as the...

Yeah, that definitely crossed my mind while trying to get things working again. In fact, I still plan to do that. The wrinkle is that I'm seriously out of time to complete our song for the compilation CD. I'm on vacation as of Saturday so we need to finish tracking tonight to allow me time to...

Holy sh*t!!! :eek: I sat down last night to start laying down the keeper tracks for our submission and for the first time EVER n-Track started crashing on me. It finally ended up crashing my PC regularly, which floored me because I'm running Windows 2000 and I've rarely seen it crash, at home...

I know. No harm intended. :D

Well put, Toki! I like that "scientific artist" concept. It's true that the science-art continuum is more of a circle than a straight line. Go far enough in either direction and you start to blur the line between them. We have a lot of technology availabe to us to do all kinds of things but...

That's exactly what I was going for, and I kind of agree with you. Luckily it's an easy thing to change. I don't remember seeing a choked crash cymbal as an instrument in my drum machine but all I had to do was reprogram two pads. I used my normal "Crash 1" and "Crash 2" and just set the...

I can't add much to what's already been said. In fact just about the only thing I can't agree with is SLuiCe's statement. My wife probably wouldn't be too into me using it to get girls (of course, if she wanted me to bring them home for us BOTH to enjoy then that's a whole other story ....)...

Man, I didn't expect these reviews, thanks guys. I was pretty nervous about posting this since it's my first time in The Mixing Clinic forum One thing that I was hoping to get some feedback on is the drums. I always spend a rediculous amount of time programming to minimize the drum machine...

Thanks, all. Besides teh playing mistakes, there are two things I think I want to fix in the final version. One is that the kick sounded pretty good on the monitors but in the car and at home it sounds a little heavy to me (I'm still learning my monitors) so I'd like to tame it just a little...
