depends on someone’s computer setup @Kites. If they have monitors/speakers and a webcam, I imagine so, but trying to do multi-group battles over Skype doesn’t sound too workable unless everyone involved has amazing broadband.
Any more ideas? I’m done with the AO Vol 3, now, and my wedding.
I have something on my OP-1 Tape right now that is unfinished. If someone is interested, I can either:
1)Send you all the Tape track files
2)Bounce them all to one track via Ear or Album and send that instead
At this time there is no beat, or structure, or discernible rhythm if someone wants to add that sort of thing.
Or I can pick one track to send you. It can be random, even. >:) Or you can just pick a number from 1-4 (though 4 is just a sound file I processed for a song iirc >.> )
someone throw something my way? I’d love an opportunity to muck with someone’s stems, even though it will probably be nothing spectacular in terms of audio
all right, I’ve made a folder in my DropBox called Operator-1.com. PM me your email and I’ll send you an invite to it. I’ve organised it as follows:
Each username will have a folder, and inside that folder will be zip files of your OP-1 Tape tracks (put all four in a folder, name it how you like (the one I have uploaded now is called StrayaSong since I did most of it in Australia lol), and zip it. Then drop that folder into your user Tape folder.
Anyone involved in this may then come in, copy this zip file to their computer, open it, and then use (and abuse) the contents. You can PM the person if you like, or let it be a surprise.
I’d prefer that people just copy Tracks directly to their OP-1, but I won’t cry foul if anyone processes stuff on the computer first so long as they leave it a mono aif file and it fits back onto their OP-1 afterward.
There is a text file where we can (try!) to keep track of who did what to what, or used what, etc. This is going to be a clusterfuck right on the edge of disorganization o.O lol…
I do like the idea of a sort of round robin thing, too, so if anyone wants to start something like that, cool. ie, one person makes a single Tape track, and sends it to the next person, who adds a track, or possibly overdubs, so long as they don’t destroy someone’s work, until we reach the end. That can be broken up in teams even, or whatever, kind of like how they used to do 4 track tape swap collabs back in the day. I can organize that, too, if we get enough people putting their name in the hat. It’s obviously not as free-for-all as the way I described first lol…
