About the ftp space: Is that for dealing with plugs also?
A team needs to share effect plugs etc. Or it could stay with what's in Live.
To be considered?

You should generally provide everything as untreated as possible. If you have had to put an effect on it, live sets should be passed around with stuff prerendered to audio or resampled. If the engineer in your team would like to get something changed, they will tell you: i.e. "please give me that sound with less distortion it doesnt sit in the mix" of course if you want you can give something totally uneffected and put in a request note for your engineer with some reference material as to how you want it to sound.

Okay, I'm so up for doing drum programming and textures as well. Allround musician-stuff, really.

Attention Basetwo & Sweetjesus

Do you wamt me to update the list with the new Able-Tones signees or do you want to copy the list and add the new names yourself?

Might be an idea to post a thread with all participants skills and request those that still want to sign up post them without extra comments and stuff. Would make it easier to organise the teams i think.

Just a thought



:wink:

I can take it from this thread.

Now if you already had this laid out in a spreadsheet or something, I'd take that! :)

I was also thinking that I could set up some sort of survey on the site I'm building to accomplish the same thing, but I realize ppl may not care to have to fill something like that out.
The question is not whether or not you are influenced, but rather what it is that influences you.

I think that is a good idea actually, makes it easier for you to sort things out, maybe just have a list of skills with check boxes next to them (or something)

I dont think anyone would mind filling it out BTW, its not like it would take very long..

If any groups would like a gear junkie... synth programmer... dj scratcher... irregular melody/beat composer... let me know. I've got plenty of weird effects... I could probably work on setting up some ftp space to host files... etc...

if any groups are working with strange constraints all the better... such as everything done with one sample... everything done in Operator... all pieces played by hand... whatever :)

OK, here we go.

In the interest of keeping things moving:

I've got a site up that is running TikiWiki, a groupware CMS. At first, mostly it will just be the forums that will be enabled and active, but I hope to add more functionality as we go along. I will note, however, that I'm not sure how well this site will perform. I seem to be experiencing some long page loads and I'm still trying to determine if it's the server or my connection to the internet that's causing the problem.

If once you've registered on the site you want to go to the main forum and post your experience with the server performance, that would help.

Now on to the specifics. The DNS should've mostly propogated by now, so try browsing to http://liveworx.net. On the right side will be a login box with a link to register. (I would strongly suggest that you register with the username you use on these forums so that there is no confusion, and also because I've already got a list of usernames and what they can bring to the music fest.) It will send you an email with a link to complete the registration process and log you in for the first time, so make sure your email address is correct.

The link to the forums will be on the left. Presently there is only one forum, but when we create teams and I start assigning users to each team, there will be a forum for each team. Only team members will be able to enter their team forum.

Start signing up and I'll start assigning people to teams within 24 hours!
The question is not whether or not you are influenced, but rather what it is that influences you.

Sounds like a great way to simplify this project! Sounds like you've put in some hours on it. Hopefully you won't be disappointed.

Signed in to. Love the instant chat box :)

If I may suggest something. A new thread with the participants and their skills should be running here so people who havent signed up can still do so or they may not know about it?

Base you have put in some great effort and time.
Tremendously appreciated.
