I'm hoping one of them is mine, but only three so far? What happened to the motivation that I saw when this thread started
I was not having fun so i stopped.
Will be happy to review tho :)
next one should include the use of soft synths

You can make soft synths outta alot of these samples, just need allota reverb :)

This is just speaking from using fruity loops, but generally when I make my own synths in FL, if I've either ran 2+ oscilators all running at slightly different pitches to giving that natural flangy (unsure of word) sound and or based a synth off another synth that was already a chord, then yeh it sounds off when I try to make chords out of it. If that makes sense :mellow:
Off the top of my head, my track didn't use chords either cause I think some of those samples were already chords.

Dude, that makes no sense!!!
If you are using oscilators, then you are using a synth already not making your own.
Some of those samples were chords, yes, but i wanna do my own chord progresions, not be bound by what key the sample is played in.
Anyway, im just whining and making excuses coz i feel guilty for not entering when i gave u shit for saying only 1/3 of the people will enter, guess i am eating my words HARD now arent I.
I am looking forward to seeing what u all come up with!!!!!

We'll see, I'm working 13 hr shifts at the moment, so I'd only have the weekend to do it, granted this should be enough time, but I've also bought an xbox 360 which is sortof sucking my spare time away very effectively.

Don't worry too much, most entries will slip in in the last couple of hours (I'm just going by other comps I've witnessed).
No more extensions please it's getting silly - I just use the extensions to procrastinate - it isn't productive anymore and I can't see how it would be gaining more entries now (so far the extensions have been helpful tho).
Anyway thanks for doing this thing it does take a bit of effort so big ups.

Well i've put in a bit of effort now that i've had some time but i'm far from stoked about the results.. normally wouldn't submit something I wasnt atleast partially optimistic about but since the entries are slim i'll put it in and just deal with last place modestly :)
I definately found this sample set more difficult to work with than the last few.. had to try writing a different style to what i'm comfortable with because it suited the samples better. Haven't had as much fun with it.. but as I haven't worked with samples at all since I moved from reason to cubase (all VST), it has been a crash course in some skills I needed anyway.
Still far from finished tho so whats the latest we can email submissions tonight ?

Mines just on its way to woj now. Pretty rushed and a tad on the average side but atleast its an entry!
Started getting into it a bit more after a full day on it, could have made something reasonable in the end I think had I managed to find more time for it but anyway it was a good excercise in persistance atleast :)
Lets hear some tunes !

Yeah picking between all our ramblings below there would appear to be atleast 7 entries.. ? which if so is not a bad turnout given how it was looking a week ago!
Thats on par with the previous comps so it should be all good.
Also it's not counting suni & phorte... or did you guys bow out this time? :shear:
Is the same hosting being used as last year? I remember there were some issues with files downloading incomplete without any warning of the problem, few ppl including myself had this prob with some of the downloads, and I'm on solid adsl so it wasn't a dialup issue or anything. I didn't even notice on one of them, thought they'd just only bothered to make 3/4 of a track :blink:
Maybe a zip file with all tracks in their original complete form? I think this was done previously for the adsl people but would be good to have it again..
Cheers.. Now comes the interesting part !
