Re: VSTi Song Contests on DSF?
I've got the break and all, just don't know where to upload to... waiting for alphacat to let me know so he can put it in a zip file (maybe)...
Re: VSTi Song Contests on DSF?
I know alpha is around. Wish he'd pick up the reigns.

Hyah, mule! Hyah! [cracks reins]
Still mulling this but promise to have things sorted by Monday for sure.
Sackley, got your PM. Please sendspace the break to me.

Re: VSTi Song Contests on DSF?
what's happening with this? got some time off and would like to get started.
Re: VSTi Song Contests on DSF?
I appreciate all of your patience, folks. I've had scheduling meltdown the last 5 days but now [cracks knuckles] it's time to Do This Shit.
So obviously we've had many minds throwing in their 2 cents worth, which is great - we're all thinking in the same general direction I think, but with slightly different emphases (as it should be.) While I appreciate the purist thrust of Pat's suggestions, that sounds like something for people with some experience under their belt; however, I also agree with the idea of keeping it all freeware and not using any native processing.
And hey, if these rules wind up needing to be tweaked that's fine too. Let's just roll out with these and see how it goes... I'm starting a new thread so it can be [hopefully] stickied.
==============================================================================
The 3 Rules
1) Songs can only be made from the featured VSTi, and the provided drum machine kit and breakbeat sample (percussion can be synthesized from the VSTi as well.) You may also record your own vocal content provided it's sung or spoken and not you making synth, bass, beatbox sounds. If a vocal sample is ID'd* as coming from existing media such as film, music, television, the submission will be disqualified.
2) The aforementioned provided sounds can be processed only using the provided DSP vst plug-ins. You can use your sampler to capture, stretch, re-pitch, reverse, or chop the samples, but using native DAW/sampler processing to do anything like bandpassing, phasing, flanging, chorusing, gating, compressing, reverb, delay, etc. is not allowed*.
3) Song can be any style/genre; Song run time can be no more than 4 minutes (entries running over will not be included, period); two weeks deadline with 1 week of voting.
* Winner must be able to provide patch/screenshot/some sort of basic documentation for how sound were made if requested.

Let's get it going then.
