Got it, thanks.

Hopefully I will take a crack at this during the weekend.

Fun idea.

Can we use Ableton's effects or no?
as much as i understood, the cov.op sounds are the only sound material you should work with, together with all Live's effects plugins to manipulate it, but no other instruments or external plugs.

I loaded this as an Ableton Live set. After I record a few bitchin midi notes I play it back and I don't hear anything. I hear something when I'm recording it, however. What am I doing wrong/???????

Hi MojoTwin2,

"someone" had set this one up with the monitor on the track set to "ON" instead of the usual, and correct, "Auto". You can change this by switching it to auto manually, consult the manual section on "monitor", if need be.

I just submitted mine.

I know I didn't win, but I had a blast coming up with something for this and actually learned more about Live in one day than I did in the last month.

Thanks for hosting such a fun contest.

Are we going to be able to hear all of the submissions or just the wieners?

Thanks CovOps- that was fun and instructive.

I'm sure it would work just offering tiny prizes- as long as it wasn't too hard for you people putting sets of sounds together you could do another one soon?

Looking forward to hearing the winners!

Rob.

woah, some REALLY REALLY nice entries!

We'll make an anonymized (?) player tomorrow and upload these, so that you kind folks can have a listen.

Bjorn has made a huge score chart which we will be filling out in the next day or two, and then we should be able to announce a winner :D

PS: Note that you can still sign up to get at the files, you just won't be able to submit. Cheers.
