Fin - Your link doesn't work.

Also, I only have 100GB of transfer, and we already have used up 40GB in 24 hrs, so ThaJeremy's mirror will be greatly appreciated. :D


I have unlimited transfer but Im not sure what kind of speed we can get out of it...I have never put up anything this size. I started the upload last night before bed and it said like 13 hours for the upload. Its still as 7 hours now so the link is not going to work yet. Hopefully we are limited by my connection speed and not server speed...but I just dont know...

Yahoo. Finally here.

Looks like my kind of track list also :D. These things are always undertracked.

I was running my mixing process in PT le.
Which has the 32 track limit.

Ive since picked up Digital Performer, and just track with PT and now move my files to DP to mix, its Sooo much nicer not having the track restictions!!!

Enjoy Darnold, ill be looking forward to hearing your entry.

Got to pull it up today. Was scared to death when i pressed play. I thought my interface had blown up or something.

Make sure you go through and sort and drop secondary channels down before you start thinking your interface is blown. :D

Besides that i finally figured out why my right side sounds weaker than my left side. The woofer in my right monitor is blown. Cant believe after months of noticing the right side being weaker than the left it was because of a blown speaker. Its not completely blown to crap at least its not crackling at all it just sounds less defined. I checked it by pressing in and sure enough its rubbing like hell.

Oh well its time for me to sleep anyway. Ill get a replacement ordered tomorrow.

All I did was rename the files from .aif to .wav no conversion was needed just renaming.

Took me ages to get a drum mix but im getting there. My first mix should be ready pretty soon.

Yikes! Maybe I need to put up files for #13, I rarely run more than 16 tracks :o

I actually cant recall anything youve ever recorded.
I wouldnt have any problem with that, as long as the song is good, and you put up the prizes! ;) :D

Per month?
Per year?

Per Month. I am going to look into an upgrade next month. :D

I really like the higher quality (24 bit) and higher track count PMC's, but it does suck a LOT of bandwidth - also, lightningmp3.com has blossomed a lot faster than I expected, so that hasn't helped.......

edit - or do them starting the last week of the month, so I can spread it out over two months.

edit2 - we generally get close to 300 downloads per PMC! :D

Yeah, its a bummer that it uses so much man, but i really appriciate it!

Also, i love the high track count, high res stuff too.

Fact is, alot of people have never mixed something like this.

I find joy in giving them the opprtunity to try it.

Hey, not a problem at all! :D

PMC#2 was the first real song I ever mixed. Helped me a ton. I truly enjoy helping out! :D :D :D
 
I actually a little thrilled there havent been any entries!!

Seems like everytime there is one guy who mixes it for 5 minutes and posts it, then says.

"Ok! I just finished this mix!" "What do you guys think?!" :rolleyes: :D

HAHA!!! there are too many tracks this time!!

Love it.

-Finster
 
LMAO, just as i posted, i saw YOU ARE THAT FIRST GUY ECK!

hahahaha.

Ok...im done acting crazy now.

Hey NL5
Is lightningmp3 sending out emails with links yet. I tried about a month ago and didn't get a reply. I can see people uploading multiple times thinking it didn't go through (I've been guilty of that :o).

I had alot of fun mixing this especially since the tracks were all recorded very well thanks to Finster. Some amount of tracks! It was a bit daunting at first but once I got going it was cool.

Anyway heres my first rough mix.
http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?fid=880

It just donned on me ECK.
Take and paste that chorus into the intro, and see if you like it.
It worked well n my rough mix i did.
It seemed to make the tune pop out better.
But its your perogative.

Bass needs better definition.
The DI bass tracks are out of phase with the mic'ed tracks BTW.
Youll need to nudge the DI tracks forward a tad to put them into phase.
Or you can opt to use just the mic'ed, or just the DI, but not both.
The best combo ive got so far is using both roy basses and a tad of 57 1.
No di at all.

Anyways good rough starter man.

Should be working fine - just switched over to a MySQL system, so files that aren't listened to for more than 90 days get auto-deleted. I plan on adding a lot of features to it this winter, while still keeping it "quick and dirty" like it is now - no sign-up, no banner, no waiting, etc.

Dude, sounds like your spending more time on thet great server of yours than on mixing.. Correct?

Hehehe..

It's really great that you do this stuff, thanks man!
