"Lesser Knowns" (Official Event Thread)

[Ed Viper]

I'll take over organization, if that's what you're asking. I'm pretty good at keeping organized.

I dunno, just a suggestion.

I am a terrible organizer so if you could lead everything that would be great. Seeing as I am running the bandcamp page all the music will have to come to me at some point so I can put it together and upload it.

Also just double checking has anyone else dropped out? I know anorax has.

Okay. I'll see about organizing stuff.

[Belgerum]

It will probably be 4th who's gonna have to take all the songs as he is the one hosting the bandcamp.

And he can master. He should master the songs as an album, unlike everyone else who makes brony compilations!

All songs should be sent to me, through a dropbox link preferably. It will take some time to fully master everyones work and everyone would need to leave any compressors/limiters off their master channel and leave me at least -3db headroom. I was planning on going through them all and changing the gains so they are all playing at mostly the same level.

If you want to to do that, that's fine, but when do you want them by, then? If we all get them to you by the 25th, then when will you finish mastering enough to post them to bandcamp or whatever? regardless, I'll get my stuff in ASAP.

Get them in as soon as you finish the track, if everyone gets them to me on the 25th then the album wont be going up on the bandcamp page that day.

[Belgerum]

Okay, I just sent one of mine over Skype, and I'm working on finishing my other one.

BIOS is not located on your HDD - It's on Mother Board. It runs separately and all the time (e.g. main clock, system settings like overclocking etc.), unlike hard drives. If what you're saying is true, then only a full BIOS reset will do it.

[LFP]

Cut the red wire.

Always works for me.. :\

[the4thImpulse]

Please don't release your songs on youtube/soundcloud until after the album is released, and when you do upload them put a link to the bandcamp page aswell.

[Glitchhog]

I've got exams on this week. Is it okay if I get the track to you on the 24th or so?

[K3WRO]

Ok, Should I send a Wav. file or mp3., it doesn't matter right?

[LFP]

Ok, Should I send a Wav. file or mp3., it doesn't matter right?

I think a wav file would be preferred if we're mixing the songs together for a teaser or something similar.

[Matthew N.]

That teaser should have been released long time ago. I'd say forget about it and work on your tracks.

[3M0 DJ]

Hey, who's the one who is making the cover art? I kinda changed my OC a little bit.

[the4thImpulse]

Everyone needs to master their own work if they can, if not I can master it for you but you need to get your tracks to me as soon as possibble so we don't delay the album any further. Send me a PM if you need me for mastering as soon as you read this message.

[Belgerum]

I was the one making the one that's full of OC's, but 4th was making one too. I think we were gonna call another vote once we're both finished. I've got basically all the OC's, do I'll probably finish mine by tomorrow.

[Anorax]

Join the club of people backing out.

You do realize that someone, probably Matthew, will start that Gaybraham thing again because of this somehow, right?

Oh, um, probably shouldn't have mentioned that.

But dude, that sucks. Hope you get it fixed relatively soon...

[Belgerum]

Okay. Now to go and update the list in my sig, the cover pic, and everything.

PEOPLE, PLEASE SEND YOUR TRACKS TO 4THIMPULSE ASAP IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE IN THIS EVENT. HE NEEDS IT SOMETIME BEFORE THE 25TH, BUT THE SOONER THE BETTER.

IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO PARTICIPATE, AND ARE ON THE LIST IN MY SIG, SPEAK NOW.

[Matthew N.]

I won't be sending my track yet since I will be working on it for the entire day tomorrow.

You do realize that someone, probably Matthew, will start that Gaybraham thing again because of this somehow, right?

Nah, that's obvious enough. Computer virus my...

Jokes aside, look at my sig. It's not me who came up with this idea.

[Belgerum]

[3:22:11 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): uhh, dude?
[3:22:18 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): problem, big problem
[3:24:19 PM] Belgerum: what is it?
[3:24:27 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): my computer
[3:24:31 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): its done for
[3:24:32 PM] Belgerum: oh no...
[3:24:36 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): totalled
[3:24:38 PM] Belgerum: not another one.
[3:24:46 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): sigh, it seems so...
[3:25:00 PM] Belgerum: So, are you not gonna be able to participate?
[3:25:14 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): its seems extremely unlikely at this point
[3:25:46 PM] Belgerum: Well, do you have a track somewhere?
[3:25:49 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): which is extremely frustrating
[3:25:57 PM] Belgerum: that's kinda all we need
[3:26:02 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): uhhh,, no
[3:26:20 PM] Belgerum: lol this is why I keep my music stuff on my flash drive
[3:26:35 PM] Belgerum: So, are you just gonna say that you quit?
[3:26:43 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): id hate to say that
[3:26:51 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): but what other choice do i have?
[3:26:55 PM] Belgerum: idk
[3:27:10 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): the best i could hope for is to get another computer on my birthday
[3:27:16 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): which is the 28th
[3:27:23 PM] Belgerum: that's a little too late
[3:27:29 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): pretty much
[3:27:41 PM] Belgerum: so you're quitting?
[3:27:47 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh
[3:27:49 PM] Belgerum: just to be certain?
[3:28:19 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): not quitting so much as being completely unable to meet the deadline for technical reasons beyond my control
[3:28:45 PM] Belgerum: okay.
[3:29:06 PM] Belgerum: Do you want to post the news to MLR, or should I?
[3:29:26 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): you can do it
[3:29:43 PM] Dante (ViRiDiA): im barely able to talk to you now on my parents piece of shit laptop
[3:29:59 PM] Belgerum: okay

It seems Computer difficulties have claimed another artist from the album. It's really too bad, but It seems ViRiDiA can't participate, so scratch him off the list.

Also, brace yourselves for mass-messaging.

[Matthew N.]

This is quickly going downhill...

[Belgerum]

Well, we've been pretty lenient thus far. I don't think we can stop now, if ever want to finish this.

Besides, Think 20 people or 10 people doesn't make much of a difference to the album's purpose, or the quality of the submissions.

[Belgerum]

TIME FOR A MASS MESSAGE. YOU SHOULD ALL FIND THIS IN YOUR INBOX SOMEWHERE SOMEHOW.
PLEASE READ THIS: IT'S IMPORTANT

Well, it's been really fun putting together an album with all you bronies. Though some may have left or joined us along this strange and wonderful journey that has been the Lesser Knowns Album, all of you guys have contributed to the experience I've had, and it's been a great one. i can't speak for everyone involved with the album, but I loved chatting, discussing music, and getting feedback from you guys.

We are now in the final stretch. We have LESS THAN A WEEK until our deadline of June 25th. We've already delayed the album once, and with After Party and other brony music albums coming quickly after us, I think we'd all rather not do so again. So I have the last few business items for you guys.

First of all, we need an album cover. Both me and 4thImpulse have made album covers in our own time. Mine, I collected a bunch of OC's for, and his is the one that uses the CMC. Some of you have probably seen both of these in some draft form, and neither of these is entirely final (Considering ViRiDiA has just left us, and we both still need to remove him.). Both can still be edited to add or remove names, or make any small changes you guys want, so keep in mind that there will be changes to the one we choose before it's put on bandcamp.

So with the crunch of time, I'm gonna have us vote between these. Pick your fave!

Socondly, the main thing everyone wants for this album is the music. WE NEED ALL FINAL TRACKS TO BE SENT (IN A .WAV FORMAT) TO 4THIMPULSE ASAP. I DO NOT MEAN SEND THEM ON THE 25TH. I MEAN ASAP. (memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=766)

You are highly encouraged to master your tracks yourselves, but if you are having issues, 4th has also offered to master a limeted number of tracks, should the creators not have time or ability. If you need his assistance, it is imperative that you ASK RIGHT NOW.

WE HAVE LESS THAN A WEEK LEFT, THIS IS ALMOST OVER GUYS. AFTER THIS WE CAN SIT BACK AND LET PEOPLE LISTEN TO OUR STUFF AND BE LAZY ALL WE WANT, BUT WE NEED TO BUCKLE DOWN AND FINISH THIS.

[Matthew N.]

Don't be hatin', but I pick 4th's cover as the main album cover. I think I've already said that about a week ago, but I'll say it just to make it official.

IT NEEDS TO BE A WAV FILE

If I don't get a wav I will ask you to send me one and if you take to long it won't be on the album.

If you don't get your song to me by or on the 25th it won't be on the album.

[Matthew N.]

Is 3200+kbps floating-point fine?
