in that case, perhaps the participants should not vote?

really shouldn't let that guy bully us out of doing the poll, which is the easiest way to go. MAybe start a new thread with the poll and have everyone make a post with an x to indicate they voted in the poll. As long as the number of replies matches the number of votes everything is cool.

of course i vote for myself. Why wouldn't i?

With the rules that we have, maybe we can call it the Dogme 9 challenge...?

I did find myself consciously having to hold back on using Operator and effect plug-ins - was a fun challenge.

We could also call it the "look what we can do with just 1 sample and tools built into Live, stop downloading thousands of plugins and make some music" challenge :D

seriously though, this was really fun. Did many people send tracks?

no shit, this made me realize how addicted i am to certain VSTs and 3rdparty LivePacks. also that i have been ignoring a lot of the native effects that are really quite good and that i paid good money for! a real eye-opener....

I think 7 entries in 7 days for a "just for fun" challenge is about par for the course here. Actually, it's better than I got for the Michael Jackson remix challenge - 14 entries over a period of about a month. Plus I did download the sample about 4 times as I kept accidentally erasing it :roll: :D .

What would be really nice is if the forum supported embedded music players, especially for activities like this... after all, it's all about the music...

yes a music player would be quite useful. When you check out photography forums, users get to share their work all the time, pictures are simply part of how the interwebs work. On audio forums, we don't get as many examples.. of course we can always use those free upload sites, etc. but I think that having to click and go off to another page limits idea sharing, especially while in the middle of a heated debate.
