Re: 30Mb file limit on RKO

NP, I will mail you if I have any specific RKO questions.

I didn't try, I thought I'd abide by the rules :)

Will try to upload a larger file as a replacement later today


EDIT: That worked! I managed to upload a larger file :)

Thanks Jan.

30Mb file limit on RKO

Hey there,

Quick question.

I noticed that RKO has a 30Mb limit for uploads. Is this still the case?

I got a bit carried away with a remix (@320Kbps / 48Khz it's 47Mb). I could encode it as 192Kbps to make it fit but higher quality is preferable to my ears.

thanks.

Re: RIP Tron

Such sad news.

Some of his later remixes were amazing - his Bounces remix put that SID on my personal "do no touch" list because its perfect.

RIP.

Re: Look what the cat just dragged in...

Hope the cat didn't put it's back out dragging the little book of soundchips in.

That book was way more substantial in weight that I expected, given its title and size. A good read though.

Merry Christmas!

Re: Fun game, guess the remix

Thanks Steve, it took a lot of experimentation and effort to find a vibe I was happy with. If anyone's interested, here are a few variations from the cutting room floor, the first one shares a fair amount of similarity. My original prototype, just to get the notes down: https://soundcloud.com/timfor...

Re: Fun game, guess the remix

It occurred to be because it sounds absolutely nothing like the remix or the original..

Apparently I’m No. 1 in the upload queue so I’m not holding anyone up if Jan fancies delaying it a few days..

Fun game, guess the remix

Hey, I’m nearly done making something new. This is the intro, it’s a remix of my remix, question is, what tune am I re-remxing? https://soundcloud.com/timforsyth/guess-the-remix/s-iivFRmKNW6d Backstory - I must have tried 4 or 5 times to come up with an intro to this, in the end I spliced up my remi...

Re: Terra Cresta

Thanks guys, glad to get confirmation the sounds and vibe are in the right place. Vred, I think you’ve hit the nail on the head. I couldn’t put my finger on what was wrong, hence this post, but you’re right, the pacing or dynamics are lacking in the second half. Like it goes from 0-5 then a relentle...

Terra Cresta

Hey, I'm fairly close to finishing the arrangement on this one, I've got my work cut out for me mixing this thing as I have a tendency to keep turning everything up. This is why the opening is so quiet and I just got carried away towards the end. A few fx are placeholders for now (like the s&h i...

Re: Abandoned WIP - Gauntlet 3 vs Plok

Ill definitely go back to it at some point. The reason I’ve abandoned it for now is the bpm I hole I dug for myself. I’ll have to rebuild the whole thing from scratch or painstakingly double stretch all the notes out. Adding to this is the automation, I put a ton of effort into the Plok solo, which ...

Abandoned WIP - Gauntlet 3 vs Plok

I’m an idiot! First time I’ve tried writing in 3/4 and I accidentally set the tempo to 192bpm and forgot about it. Due to several technical reasons I need it to be 96bpm but cubasis on iPadOS won’t let you stretch midi. So this is an early work in progress, the drums are placeholders (same repeating...

Re: WIP: Ice Queen

Thinking of royksopp, although this isn’t a perfect fit for your track, you just made me think of Andromeda off their lost tapes, in my opinion an outstanding example (like many their tracks) of how to build something from an initial hook to something wonderful. Has a good Sid vibe at the end of tha...
