No, hence the edit.

I talked about it like I had hearlier, but yeah, no.

but if any of the oscillators are synthing a wave then no

you could create a perfect sine out of the sample then turn that into a sine wave osc. then use fm , presumably

Not many samplers have an external input for a LFO, yet it basically amounts to the same thing as the carrier for FM or AM. You could even argue that a filter is some arbitrary wave resonating at the filter frequency.

Such a good mix.
It's like inspiration central up in here.

fair enough
but, if you really want to nitpick, an FM operator pushes the wave directly through another wave and ultimately out of the speakers
an LFO's wavecycle is not only inaudible, but it never heads out of the speakers anyway. It's just assigned to a knob that it will twist back and forth.

But anyway i used a noise shaper so that's the same shit as FM
so i'd've disqualified myself i guess

do we have to PM a private soundcloud linky or something else? i havnt had anything else to do so i've finished mine thereabouts

Yes. Guys, please read the first post in the thread before asking questions, if your question is unanswered, proceed to ask.

I don't care where you upload it, just PM a link, and don't show it to anybody else.

im so in on this.

Nearly done with my tune. woop. yahhh

Edit: It is done lolololololollololololololollololololllo

Haven't been on here or posted in a while but I'm in!

Started working on this a couple nights ago, so far so good.

when is the official deadline for this??

1st October 2012?

I assume you are going to make a Soundcloud account to upload these for voting? Or will you use your personal one? We could just Dropbox you finished tunes there to make things easier...?

Just a thought

Been working on this, will send it in if i finish by the deadline

Almost there on mine; it's going to be interesting hearing what people have done with theirs.

I've sent in a tune, according to the rules constructed solely with the 808 sample. For the next round, though, why don't we limit the rules to just FX that still lets sample have some resemblance left? Like delay and reverb, maybe some light flanging and chorusing. Beyond that it's just composition, pitching and slight timestretching (again, so that you can sill hear that it's the original sample). If you can use FM on a single sampled wave, then it isn't really just composing just with that kick, you use other sounds as well.

Warwolt, the point of this exercise isn't to have 20 tunes that 'sound the same' because they used a single sound. It's to take that one sound and push it, use your DAW like you don't normally use it, figuring how to make your claps and hats and leads and pads etc from scratch, starting somewhere else each time.

But if you win, I guess it's up to you what happens next time.
Winner chooses the sample and determines the rules we abide to in production.

Jam, I've got a ghost soundcloud up, so technically it's a personal one, but I've only got it for this competition. Tracks are going up privately.
If you want to send me a dropbox link, go ahead. Mediafire was just an example as it's easy to work with, and easy to delete files post-sharing.

Good luck everyone!

this was fun as hell

would be ridiculous to require the drum to sound like a drum though

that kinda drains the fun out of it imo
