Sports, politics, movies, videogames, questionable hobbies, photos from your family vacation, etc. Talk about stuff that isn't ponies or music. But do try to stay on topic and respectful of alternate opinions.

So today I got to use the studio they're they teach use this trimester. The setup is like 10 times less confusing than the last one I used. Like, nothing was straightforward and it kept changing every week. Channel 1 was not actually channel 1 and I was very sad because of that :Y

I would be happy if everything was pretty straight forward. Like, something i recently said was not straight forward enough so I had to go back and explain it. (it's so hard to make text based jokes without facial expressions to enforce that one is joking.) but yea straight forward is the best. And at least now you know this will probably be piece of cake for you.

I'm pretty happy about it, like this last one I worked on was an analogue desk with broken gain knobs and a confusing as shit channel layout. The one I'm with now is digital and I can work so much faster with it ;w;

At my church we have 2 different sound boards. Both are analog, but one is a hybrid. The hybrid one has 32 columns across the board for sound, but has 4 layers so basically it has like 128. But it only has 32 input channels so its more like 4 presets for those 32. And only 16 inputs work for some reason so yea.

why is it so hard for me to find voice samples of the ponies without background music. is it just me that has this problem?
edit* and a google search shows this posted on mlr: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=1174
Spoiler thanks freewave:
*thanks freewave (because i found this in one of your old posts and I figured you would have probably posted the same link here as well. so Im thanking you for what you would have done before you knew you had to do it. Except you didnt HAVE to do it, you would have done it and said to look before posting, and then I would feel silly for not looking hard enough and then yea. anyway, you helped me somehow. thanks :) I hope that even made sense. I'm literally on drugs right now. hernia surgery blah blah so i have an excuse. kind of. not really. whatever.

I hate how I seem to have a lot of time, but not really. My three days off from the surgery are already over. I was absolutely not productive the entire time. :/

Id say thats not a problem of not having time. Thats a problem of not using the time you have effectively. I have the exact same problem a lot of the time, and I have no idea how to solve it... But being in school from 8 to 5 a few days a week tought me theres a difference. Those days I actually don't have the time for music :/ I also have a 1 h comute to get there, and I regularly stay to 7 or 8 to finnish programing stuff... I have long days... and Im expected to put down so much time on homework to... which I don't, but still...

There is a messaging app called Ethan where you can only text one guy, the creator of the app: ethan.

It takes a while for him to respond. Either because he is responding to a lot of people at once, or it takes a while before he actually gets the message. Idk
But what I know about ethan is that he likes electronic music and he didn't know about monstercat until I informed him. I also informed him of Sub.Sound and will be informing him of some other great under ground people I doubt he knows. (like probably virtual riot and desso or something.)

Since when the hell is Virtual Riot "underground"? Do you even know what "underground" means in this context?
Notebook Memories, the debut album from yours truly, is currently up on my bandcamp for free. Any feedback, encouragement, hate mail, etc. is highly appreciated! Even just listening is pretty cool of you tbh.

By underground I meant really "underground" and "becoming established"
Basically anything under radio mainstream and yea
Like where I live, nobody knows virtual riot. So that's why I included him

once about a month ago I was complaining about how I was in a music contest that failed.
Well, it rose up again and was back on track.
And I got an email saying that I placed as a runner up.
Which is pretty flipp'n sweet.
And the prize is:
$100 USD
A Patch

Basically, music has been easily worth my time now. I am pretty pumped now. The only problem is: I submitted 3 songs and I have no clue which one they liked. derp

EDIT:
http://bronyaerospace.net/
So it was the song Candyland (at least now I know.)
I placed in top 4 (im assuming third place since I'm in the middle of positions 2-4)
I placed alongside Silva Hound and DJ Alez Android

First went to .... Capt. Fluffaton!!! congratulations

and I see a familiar name in the honorable mentions:
MyCutieMarkIsAGun
so good job to everyone who submitted. yea

Hrm. I'm on there.

Well, it's not really that bad. All the stuff that's there has been free if people want it free--I only put it on Bandcamp if people want to pay.

Not sure why you'd want it off that website, though. The quality is terrrrrrrrible.

:/ I don't mind my stuff being there really. It's not like anyone was paying for it anyway :I and I don't feel like being mad about it out of principle, so I won't.

theres like a million of those sites, they are just like bots that collect shit they can find, often from ripping it on soundcloud.

i found myself on a few of them, but like it really doesnt matter.

I only had an issue with it because I was intending on selling the song they have. Which also, it's a private song. Nobody is even able to listen to it on any of my things (sound cloud/ YouTube / etc)
But I guess I really don't care too much. Because it's not like I would get a lot of money anyway.

The song of mine on there is actually one that Pinnacle tried to sell when I specifically asked them not to sell it. I could care less where my free music is downloaded from

That's actually the only reason that I would want to take it down.
My uncle long ago told me he'd just make a torrent with all his music in wav so others don't need to be shittin' bad quality rips of his work. "If I happen to get more people listen to my music, it'll happen anyways. So why not be ahead of them, with quality?"

Yeah, beating cruddy little websites like this is not really about taking them down, since that's like eradicating house flies. Just provide better quality downloads. It won't make them go away, but it'll draw listeners away from places like that.

Out of curiosity I searched myself - The only thing of mine was my song The World Behind Closed Steel. Nothing else, and nothing from my band either xD Honestly who the hell even uses those sorts of sites though? They look like dingy little automated virus pumps. In most cases, musicians like us aren't really known enough for people to be going out of their way to get our music, which they could easily get from the download links we (usually) provide, from some awful freemp3 site.
