Look what I made! / I did some chillout. An EP's worth of it.

« on: November 10, 2011, 14:10:51 »

It's not nice to end a long absence just by popping in to spam around, but can't help it.

Aaaanyway, I put together a chillout EP during the summer, got it finally released. All kinds of links (itunes, bandcamp, direct download) at:

Fans of xerxes might like it, or well, at least xerxes himself does.

The Lobby / Fallout 3 Alternative Soundtrack announced

« on: November 23, 2008, 18:29:18 »

Hey guys.

As the title suggests, we're making an alternative soundtrack for Fallout 3 - a soundtrack that follows the atmosphere of the earlier Fallout games more faithfully than what Inon Zur made for FO3.

The soundtrack will be made available to download free of charge and it'll replace all the music heard in-game.

The core group consists of Sampo "Ceekayed" Närhi, Gábor "oldbrian" Valasek, Michal "Claymore" Dlouhy, Maciej "trompkins" Stankiewicz and a person known as Xaimus.

Head to http://fo3.xaimus.com for more info and previews.

Tracking / Re: What's your tracker / format of choice? And why?

« on: September 17, 2008, 11:50:25 »

Mainly Chibitracker and sometimes Renoise.
Why chibi? IT interface and usable built-in reverb & chorus (good for very minor tweaking and helps to save a ton of channels - 64 channels hasn't been enough for me for years). The downside in chibi is a load of bugs but I can live with it. I'll have to live with it since I can't feel myself comfortable with renoise no matter how hard I tried.
So I use Renoise only for the vst/vsti support.

Currently... copious amounts of nothing. Will change soon hopefully.

The Lobby / Re: Yo!!! Where's the Metal Scene?

« on: September 12, 2008, 10:20:47 »

Well, the metalscene as it's own entity breaths by artificial respiration on these forums.

Then there's Tracked Aggression and Metallurky which haven't been updated for quite a while. In fact, 'lurky is currently down and I don't know if it's for good or is there just a technical problem as the page says.

As a positive note Tracked Aggression still has all the TA music disks and Red Rain interviews up and downloadable. Have fun.

The Lobby / Re: [Updated] Dimmu Borgir's "Sorgens Kammer" uses agony2.mod

« on: September 12, 2008, 10:13:25 »

Yep, it's a clear rip-off and it's a rather well-known case already. Quite sad, but at least Dimmu Borgir polished the composition a bit and made it actually better than the original was.

And I don't know what have you been eating/smoking/drinking Jojo if you can't hear the undeniable similarities between the songs.

Tracking / Re: modern tracking methods

« on: April 26, 2008, 12:49:03 »

I've never had to touch more modern tools to get the sound I wanted, so I've sticked to IT2.14 since '96. I just recently switched to chibitracker due to it's reverb/chorus settings, support for stereo samples and more memory capacity - saves me the trouble of exporting the songs channel by channel for individual channel effects, which I actually did a couple times before.

So basically I've just learned to use the IT interface and commands so well that I can do just about everything with it, providing I have the correct samples. I also recently bought Roland Juno-D, mostly for playing purposes but it also helps alot with finding the proper sounds.

I also rarely use renoise with some vsti's for bass/synthlines.

Oh, and post-processing happens with Soundforge 6.0 with a bunch of plugins (mainly compressors and limiters).

ChibiTracker Bug Reports / Weird filter envelope bugs

« on: April 13, 2008, 23:46:16 »

When using filters for some samples it just converts the sample to loud white noise and doesn't actually filter it at all. This does not happen always, and I've been having hard time figuring out to which samples reproduce this bug (though I've not had the time to really test it systematically).

However, this is the only bug in chibi that is really disturbing at the moment. Other stuff work fine enough. There are some weird little bugs with the filter envelopes in generally, but one can easily live with them as long as one can accept that they don't work exactly like in IT.
