Working for the stream-end editionLast Thread: >>692019021Tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szoluCoZmBg >What is this?An annual collaboration project where /v/ sings about video games for a full month, from September 15 through October 15.

>>692055329A song called DIVERSITY but created UNITY
Kyaputen Murasa no OC anchor!
>>692055454Starting thread off with fresh mix:https://krakenfiles.com/view/fXrbLfPN8Q/file.htmlOpen to ideas for filling the interludes.
How many songs we got? Seems like the rush came true in the end.
Who's organizing the album order? It's happened pretty fast, how much thought have you put into the flow of each album?
Countdowns for important events coming up soonDEATH BATTLE POLLS:https://timee.io/4ukART BATTLE POLLS:https://timee.io/4um
>>692052789Yes
>>692055674I think it's just been separated into what songs go in which category, but order can't start until we poll album openers>>692055710You should also poll the album openers.
>>692055674We can probably make suggestions.
>>692055820we'll do that on saturday then unless you want it sooner
Can the owners of https://the-voombox.xyz/ and https://vthemusical.neocities.org decide if they'll accept new banner art? It feels sad to lose the bandcamp tradition just cause bandcamp's new owners had a hissy fit.

>>692055924Is there any reason to wait so long?It makes sense to wait for Album Art and Death Battles since edits are still being made, but we got all the song out, we should just poll openers already so we can start organizing.
>>692055996no other reason than doing one pull every 24 hours. I can run it concurrent with the death battle polls.
By the way, anons, did you check out the musical video i've made on "Snoot-lizer" song?Did you like it? I was relieved to find out that Snoot Game community liked it, i've been editing it for a week straight, most of the time i was brainstorming ideas for jokes to put.
>>692055329Posting again but K, if you post your takes for Six Ninety Nine (the Bring Me To Life parody), then editfag could make a better mix.
>>692056097I've seen it, it was amazing.
>>692056064If any poll should be done first, it should be album opener one. Death Battles don't have as much importance in organizing the musical.
>>692056097I liked itI do wish I could make a new mix of the song now that I've learned more tho...
>>692056218It wouldn't be the first time a video used a new mix.
>>692056218You could always DLC it
>>692056197alright, i can just run those right now because we can nominate.https://poal.me/1ua3t5NOMINATE YOUR ALBUM OPENERS! DO NOT VOTE FOR FREE SPACE.
>>692055454Editor of Fratley's Girl, please update the mix with the timed backing vocals.https://krakenfiles.com/view/EbmrDcT8TD/file.html
>>692056323>>692056367Can I really DLC old tracks?
>>692055538Every time.We're at 152 finished songs without DLC, and we've got a few dozen in the edits tab.
>>692056443unless it's a retard moment I don't actually need to do anything other than let you guys tally up the votes, right? (and shill the poll every hundred posts or so)
>>692056443>can only nominate one song>can only vote for one songShit poll desu.
>>692056529It won't make it on any new albums, but I don't see any rules prohibiting it.
>>692056728ahhhh damnit. anyone know a site with infinite write-ins?
>>692056529Yes, I've done it a couple times.
Extra Life would be a good opener if the singing was stronger.
I have some trouble finding information. When can we expect the new albums to be done and available for download?
>>692056529it's not common but i can think of two DLC remastershttps://krakenfiles.com/view/AmShQCDuTO/file.htmlhttps://krakenfiles.com/view/Ph9O0LRA4o/file.html
>>692057146We're aiming for release on the 27th.
>>692057146either October 27th or November 3rd.
>>692057293(hopefully the 27th if we can get it done in time)
>>692055965/v/oomboxer hereIf someone can come up with how the UI should look like, I can definitely make it happen.Not soon, though, as I lack proper access to a computer and my dev environment for another month~, but shouldn't bee too hard.If anyone is willing to take a shot at an UI mockup, it'd help a ton, otherwise I might take another month for my uncreative ass to find the best placement
>>692057289>>692057293I'll have to wait for that much longer to sperg out in my car to and from work? Ah well... Thank you for the information!
>>692057451You can listen via the webplayer if you want, though the album order hasn't been decided yet, and we haven't even finished mixing all the songs.
>>692043525sorry i just got back, boyoxa5658@angewy.com
>>692056846We usually ask the thread for nominees for each category. When we get some, then we make a poll for each category.That's how we used to do it.
>>692057756We got nominations last thread: >>692019552

>>692056484i will later, in 30~ minutesthe biggest problem was the main vocals really, i had to time it all myself
>>692058163We are not accepting new songs anymore buckoThe deadline was yesterday.
>>692058163>>692058260Remember for next year tho! Sounds like a banger.
>>692057841Pc masterrace, platforms
>>692058163>>692058402Technically it's DQ'd because it's posted outside Musical times
>>692058198Damn, just so you know the backing was timed to the unedited main vocals.
>>692058552rip
>>692057926using this list, and checking the albums we desperately need Vidya 1 album suggestions, since we have only one.
>>692058783The albums are not organized yet, its just a placeholder. All the vidya songs are candidates on either list, the Top 2 will be used as Vidya 1 and Vidya 2 and then everything will get reorganized.Same with Board Culture.
>>692057293I'd much rather have it on November 3rd since I have family visiting on the 27th.
>>692058552He can just post it again next year, no one's gonna give a fuck.
>>692059182I hope we've gotten past the "grudges". It wasn't fun waiting an entire year to watch people kickstart their argument they'd been using the previous musical for.
>>692059182That's why I said "technically", this looked like an honest mistake so I don't think many people will mind.
>>692057841Got our Industry opener right here:https://krakenfiles.com/view/WGjTVZSfUJ/file.html>>692055454
>>692059319adddeddd. love it.
>>692059267Alright remind me next year to do a subtle meta song about drawfs holding grudges
>>692059512it'd be funny but people will spend a thread whining about how gay meta songs are
>>692057841see>>692014690
>>692055329so which song has HALL OF SHAME potential?>inb4 DiversityOk but besides that one?VI: Porn on Steamhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtvAaclxpDoVII: Other Boardshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGbWiWCkTZgVIII: Army of /v/ 4chanhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9h8DnpsEAMAIX: Controllerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jrx7UY277woX: Why don't you go back to /vg/?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YJmk-GJLMMXI: In Gacha We Live, Lamenthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9CCaDXVyY0
>>692059772is it just bad singing that makes it "shame", though? Porn on steam is legendary for how bad it is.
>>692055710When you do DEATH BATTLES, rehost the files on Gofile. Kraken compresses the browser stream, which can lead to one version sounding worse than it actually is.Another benefit is that you can have multiple files on one link, unlike Kraken.
>>692059643But it is not a meta song! It is a song about dawi holding grudges in total warhammer! Bringing them up turn after turn!
>>692059883Sure.
>>692059835Porn on Steam was hated as fuck in the start.It's become ironically iconic now, but it wasn't recieved half as well on release.
>>692059267Unfortunately there will probably be more manufactured drama in future years. The best we can do is ignore it and just have fun.
>>692059772The hall of shame are the songs that nobody remembers. Those are all great in their own way
>>692059772I'm bummed how much In Gacha we Live, lament was butchered because the original is an absolute banger. All of Mili is.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfTWgMgknpY
>>692060034That's the hall of mid.
>>692060126The worst part is that it'd probably have been done this year since we got more femanons.
>>692060126So this is what the original is supposed to sound like? Damn they destroyed that song.
>>692060263could do a "redo" as DLC? Or is that not kosher.
Does anybody have the livestreams from the past years?I wanna see people's reactions to these songs >>692059772
>>692060379Alternate mixes, remasters, and redoes have all been done as straight-to-DLC side projects before.
>>692060263yeah, the near shouting the singers are doing is hard to mimic. It sounds like mush when I sing along (although I'm no singfag)
Reminder we've still got a bunch of songs that need editing!
>>692060379I mean there's nothing stopping it, but it always goes to DLC and it's just effort that could have gone to the main albums wasted.
>come up with a great idea for next year after deadlinewhy does this literally happen every year? last time it was "Welcome to the /v/ board" which got sung, so i guess it worked out.
>>692060831I just remembered that I wanted to do Boom De Yada last year
>>692060831>welcome to the /v/ boardwhich became the Vidya Board of 4chan btwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiPbGJ0-Isk
>>692057926ten minutes for any last minute suggestions
>>692061575Pulling off nearly all the roles in a musical number by yourself felt kind of funny
>>692061692I got to be a goblin named sneed.
>>692057926>>692061618Diversity

No one will remember Overwatch tweeted about her feet. However Dirty Projectors is great and you should listen to them.
>>692063264feet in of itself is evergreen content though, so it can be slightly reworked.

how long you guys want this to run for? a full hour sounds too short, how bout when i wake up for work in eleven hours
>>692055329Is there any song you forgot to sing? >Retardy>Robotniks Ring Racersall easy songs I forgot to finish cause I'm lazy lmao
>>692058570Yeah so i think i've figured out what's going on, the pace of the main vocals and your background vocals don't line up. I made a render of just the vocals so you can see what i'm talking about: https://krakenfiles.com/view/LVHA1a8DCI/file.html
>>692063103It's just like the /v/gas>vote for the nominees>barely anyone votes>okay well here's the nominees vote for the awards>WHAT WHAT ARE THESE NOMINEES? WHO MADE THESE>uh the vote>WHAT VOTE???Every single year.
>>692065320No, but I got cucked out of singing more stuff because I got sick right in the middle again.Still managed to contribute to I think it was 7 songs in some way, shape or form.
>>69206527324h polls
>>692065320Jebus forgot to sing Please Please Please
>>69206527324 hours so everyone can vote.
>>692065948>>692066147ok
i wonder, if we all got free accounts on WoW or something, and met somewhere, then casted our vote for stuff, if that would curtail rigging. Sure people would multibox but you can't really multibox 6 accounts at once easily
>>692065564desu I haven't seen or taken note of anything related to the /v/gas in many years now. think I remember they restricted voting to just steam accounts which actually does make sense but probably killed lots of interest
>>692065331Could you upload the rendered main vocals alone?
I assume stupid horse mixer will fix the v2 take eventually but if not, please make sure to use the v1 take cause the harmonies are on point in that one.
>>692066671Wait what's wrong with V2? I thought it was done.
>>692066810I asked the mixer to make the vocals clearer, which they did, but the harmony is really out of tune now. That's all that needs to be fixed.
>>692066963I'll take a look at it tomorrow.
>>692067173Thanks friend.
>>692066482https://krakenfiles.com/view/PfiYYeml74/file.html
We should've done a One Direction/Liam Payne song about the Bandcamp dying
>>692067542I get it, cause he died too.
K is lucky her voice is so soothing cause I still can't understand her in Gnosis.
>>692066140I got you next year if Palworld is still alive.
>>692068138The song will be super outdated at that point.
man, why does my voice suck this year. usually i can tolerate listening to it but relistening to the tracks make me cringe
>>692067565WHAT
>>692068463Oh...you don't know. I'm sorry.
>>692068463He died in Argentina a few hours agoSuicide
>>692067542it's easy to brush it off with how crazy the world has gotten but a news organization (tabloid) posting immediate pics of his dead body is incredibly sickening. how do you even explain the thought process on that
>>692068771I know. I was there.
>>692068771Looks like he was drunk, could've been an accident
>>692068294Maybe you just picked songs that don't match your voice so well, at least to your own ears.It's why I tend to stick to my Sabaton and adjacent comfort zone.
>>692068947Pics or it didn't happen
>>692068997guess ill stick to weezer for life. voice acting is hard to change how you sound for different songs
>>692068924I think its crazy how the people who worked there took the pics and sold it to TMZ immediately.
>>692068960He was high on coke and maybe methHe had gotten #metoo'd recently tooI don't think he was in a good headspace
>>692067324I think this should do it. https://krakenfiles.com/view/ayyMZ8fMFS/file.htmlAnd what it should sound like: https://krakenfiles.com/view/oAWr0P21nr/file.html
>>692069097Referencing the David Brockie/Oderus Urungus tweets about Nelson Mandella from when the latter died.
>>692056097That was great shit, the song was fun and the video was fun
So since the voombox confirmed that he'll be implementing a banner in the future, let's make a banner. For consistency let's keep the Bandcamp dimensions. I'm thinking of a theme.
>>692069161yeah that's messed up too but at least they have the excuse of everyday people needing money. fuck them both, but fuck a business especially
>>692069220Celebrities try not to force themselves on women or children challenge (impossible)
>>692069848I'm still waiting for enough of these people to just get sucked into ai text adventures. Yes, it's generative AI, but using it to tell stories with yourself is really fun.i'm not kidding when I say that being able to literally self-insert into anything keeps the loneliness at bay.
>>692069848Okay, woman.
>>692070269Okay, child.
>>692070720Don't you have a plant to kill?
>>692069565A resurrection theme would be nice, or would that be too heavy-handed?
>>692062495For future reference,. leaving polls up for 24 hours only really works out as fair if people had like 24 hours to vote on options. Slept through every post asking for suggestions since I was up to be here for the end of the musical. Plus it's hard to vote on death battle opener options as wildly different as diversity when people haven't decided if we want the serious or shitpost version, personally only 1 of those would get my vote as opener. Not a huge deal in the end.
>>692070956Seems avant guard, will people even get the "joke"? Just do what you want as long as it looks good and has a color scheme that won't blind us, really
>>692070956Usually the banner has been kind of fitting video game theme i.e. a meteor for VII, so maybe we can do a zodiac theme? Or a time theme would work for resurrection as well and the musical trailer already had a clock theme. What are some good games with clock motifs that could be used?
>>692071150I mean if it's like Mercy or RE art that would be pretty thematic I think
>>692071327
>>692071327https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZZoXKmT_Sg
So the winner gets opener, does second place get closer?
>>692055454Since I can't edit the sheet, I'll just dump my shit here.

>>692072498a true soldier of god
>>692071894No. closers just go to whatever songs fit as closers, usually little meme tracks like Epilogue or Concord. I don't think we've ever voted on it, that would take way too long to poll every little thing. If you see songs worth swapping around or positioning differently, post it in the thread. >>692055674if you have suggestions suggest them. the organizer is mostly just filling the space and trying to get some fitting stuff together, like the 2 shadow songs are together and Captcha follows up All The Lolis like the writefag intended.
Sheet anon - Can we please use this new mix for the album instead of the current one? I noticed Aniki gets drowned out when the music hits and that's a disrespect to him.https://krakenfiles.com/view/mpijIMcB3f/file.html
>>692048478Thanks singfren and thanks sheet anon for dlcing it. Next year I'll deliver a more definitive version.
Red Stew/Tainted has been locked so long the only way to make edits is to comment on the post. I remember singfag giving a much fixed version of his vocals but could only do so via the unfinished version of the spreadsheet and commenting on the sheet and thread.
THINGS YOU CAN DO:Song art is still viable, you have a few days left to try and get some in, in fact last year we had double-digit song arts submitted past this point of the musical! Just avoid making any for songs that already have it or album openers unless you're ok booting them from that spot.We need ALL songs to get synced lyrics if we want the stream/files to contain them. It's not hard, just a bit tedious. If you want to help, here's a guide: https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/689550662/#689552260VOTE IN ANY LIVE POLLS!!!! OPENER POLL IS LIVE: >>692062495Double check your stuff is in order! If you made songs, make sure they're on the sheet/album order and the file is correct, every year there ARE songs where a pre-final or wrong version gets used and fixing it now is far easier than later! If you made art, make sure it's in the folders! If you want, check other people's shit!Nitpick stuff! The album order is WIP and you can help suggest things to move. Think 2 songs would be funnier if 1 was after another? Think 2 songs would fit better if they swapped categories? Noticed 2 very long songs after each other? Noticed the same singfag in too many in a row? Let us know!Nitpicking applies to other things too. The "Notes" section for songs is the original song being parodied, and they should be "Title - Artist" format. If you see any typos or ones that are wrong, let us know now so the song can have the correct data, it'll show up on the stream and forever in the file downloads so people can find the song if they want! Or if you have a better idea for a title on a song, or notice editing is fucked up in a way that should be easy enough to fix, or the wrong file is somewhere or a song is left off, let us know!Prep Dancer GIFs. These will be asked for in the thread in a week or whenever, gifs of dancing characters to go on the livestream. They have to have transparent backgrounds. Find some if you feel like you have nothing better to do.Celebrate the year!!
>>692074890who the hell is aniki and why do i keep seeing this guy everywhere even in other boards??
>>692071052yeah, i'm getting conflicting advice, some people want it now now now, and I wasn't getting any advice about waiting, so I'm just doing what people want. Sorry you couldn't submit.
>>692076307lurk moar
>>692076998it's not a huge deal either way, just funny to see the poll for vidya have 3 options out of the huge pool of songs. at this point we're just picking 1 song not to be an opener.
>>692078218Why are it decided to do Industry/Misc and Platforms/Misc instead of a combined Industry/Platforms?
>>692078218Wait.. when did we have the album art poll?Did I miss it?
>>692078218he's just making shit up lol
>>692078218bait>>692055710
fuck nevermind I'm supposed to post that in 6 days, stupid fucking american calendar dates
>>692078218Why are death battles and album openers 24hrs but album art is mere hours?
>>692078453it was bait.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnQVIckb574
>>692078401that post is a shitpost but we're supposed to do separate industry and platforms. the totals depend on how many songs we get, we can't do a full platforms album in a year with like 5 platforms songs but this year had plenty of platforms songs to justify an album.
>>692078401>>692078415>>692078432>>692078440>>692078453>>692078509just making sure you guys are awake. lets keep the thread off page 10.
>>692078602I literally bumped it before you, dumbass.
>>692078602>pretending to be retarded
>>692078639it was on page 10 and the post before it in the thread was almost 15 minutes before it. you failed at making the post you think you made.
>>692069259How's this: https://krakenfiles.com/view/fPfFYvJPLJ/file.html
>>692078980Great. Maybe turn the main vocals up a couple db in the first and second pre-choruses? They're noticeably quiet coming off the verses.
>>692076998when you do the art poll make sure it's unlimited choices per person so it's not the same few obvious options getting almost every vote while the weaker ones sit at literally 0 or 1.
>>692078551Combined Platforms and Industry >>>> Industry with random crap in it
I was bored sohttps://krakenfiles.com/view/AOhHbwYho3/file.html
>>692079885Is this going into the death battle?
>>692079795do you not get how numbers work? we can't make albums if the songs don't fit for them. we needed a full industry album because we had a full industry album worth of tracks. there is no debate on that fact.
>>692079885I'll add it to the list.
>>692080014Only if the singers want it>>692080229Oh cool
>>692078980>Who is Fratley?>Keep listeningFuckin amazing once I realized.
>>692080514My only complaint with the song is they could have changed "woman like that" to "woman like rat". But that might have went against the not being a furry thing, so maybe it was for the best.
>>692078980Is there a reason the vocal volume takes a nosedive when the song gets to the "cause she's watching him with those eyes" part.
the more I listen to https://krakenfiles.com/view/qapKbthPzI/file.html the funnier it gets
>>692081269I'd be a lying ass fool if I said it didn't make me laugh out loud when I hear it. Gdi Anonika kek.
>>692079648>>692081014i'll give it another once over, sorry it's been a long day
>>692080514can you explain the joke please
>>692080810The point is that the singer slowly caves/confesses, but his interest in her isn't furry he swears.
>>692081493the funniest part is he didn't even know it *had* a backing track to even attempt to match, he just sang random bullshit and made his own tune.
>>692081937Hence why I said it might be for the best it didn't get done that way. It would work if he was openly furry, but in the context of the song, it kind of conflicts with the rest.
>>692082297i think i was loosely inspired by Smells Like Teen Spirithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTWKbfoikeg
>>692082297Nah, the funniest part is he wouldn't have sang to it even if he had known. That's the legend of Anonika, he sings off of memory.
>>692082297Anonika really is a treasure sometimes. His sense of humor is on point, making a little teapot song to sing is equally funny. +2 respect points for him this year, may his death battles go well because he earned it.
>>692082297Can't sing off tune if there is no tune.
>>692082428if by "I listen to the track then try to mimic what i just heard", sure. I can't listen to the original at the same time i'm singing different words, my brain cannot compute this. Essentially i'm giving myself a handicap everytime, and yet sometimes it just clicks like the short songs I did. It felt easy as shit to do those spongebob songs and the strong bad one. Despite growing up with Strong Bad I'd never actually heard that song before the musicals.
>>692082428Singing on an OC track really is the perfect opportunity for him too, nobody knows the song to have their brain say "this is inherently wrong", it's just wrong in an intentionally-trolly way. He has my vote.
>>692082550(and i'm responding to the obvious bait because I genuinely want advice for next year)
>Have a ton of work this weekAnyone know when the stream is happening, or did I already miss it?
>>692082581hopefully the 27th, the 3rd if not
>>692082579the genuine advice is to do more simple songs like the teapot song. they dont have to be literal childrens songs, but stuff where you can follow it from memory and not have issues because of that. you also tend to be best when you're going for funny and not serious, not sure what it is but your serious songs don't feel like old serious el pato songs where they turn funny just by you doing them.>>692082581probably either the 27th or nov 3rd, ideally 27th since we don't want the threads to go too long as we're technically tourist guests on /v/
>>692082720>>692082772>Both dates are SundaysAwesome, I'm gonna make it bros.
>>692082772I personally hope the 3rd so I can actually plan for it but if the 27th, I hope family decides to take off back home that day but I know they're gonna stay till Monday.
>>692082840yeah we tend to do sundays because most people are off sundays. saturdays are an option but when we poll it usually loses to sunday anyway, and 26th is probably cutting it too close.
>>692082912yeah it can suck for some people either way, there's bound to be some busy the 27th and some busy the 3rd so it's a wash. at worst we'll have the youtube reupload of the streams even if it's not the same.

Whats up with the virus infesting popups that are some how getting past my adblock on this musical upload site.
>>692083385Yeah, idk how Kraken is doing it either.
>>692083374its in the folder, check again later for the sheet since its locked, if its not up like tomorrow post again
>>692083385>>692083489Kraken is just a godawful parasite of a website filled with some of the worst bullshit they can fill it with, we only use it because their standards are so low that they don't need an account and don't nuke an audio file called nigger killer kkk where someone just screams that they want to kill niggers.

>>692066382They stopped requiring steam accounts a decade ago, lol. And they're still going, believe it or not
>>692085279i do want to find a way to elinimate rigging in our polls because it seems like such a solvable issue, but there doesn't seem to be a good polling site that can really stop it. Some definitely do better than others, though.
>>692085372The /v/GA's have had the same webmaster for 13 years so it's all custom now. For something like this, yeah, it's extremely hard to have an unrigged poll. Anything that fixes the gamesmanship would also require some kind of verification, be it a google/discord account or whathaveyou. Steam's web integration still exists, so if you wanna code something up you can absolutely still do it how the /v/GA's used to it and require a steam login to authenticate, which is a bit easier to swallow than google or discord
>>692085776epic gamers are always so repressed...
>>692085372>>692085776But of course this raises the issue of someone having a perceived level of authority over the musical, who has access to the results, the ability to view the results ahead of time, or potentially edit results, and they will get a name, and that name will be in every thread until the end of time no matter how good/bad of a job they did :^ )

Do you guys have any ideas for next year? I was going to write it at some point this year but I got carried away with other things, but I wanted to do a song about anon trying to love his vidya waifu even though she's not real (this being the focus) set to thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCueCS0OeVg
>>692086894I tend not to think about it much but I do keep notes on songs or gaming events. next year maybe I finally get to warrant cherry pie for a ufo 50 song or something
>>692065320The Make My Dreams Come True parody.The musical just had to happen at a busy time in my life.
>>692086894https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESx_hy1n7HAthis about games where you have a lot of creative freedom.
>>692086894I was just telling other anons that I had an idea to do a song about /v/ memes of old to Katy Perry's Teenage Dream obviously called Teenage Meme.https://youtu.be/IOZmV6iE2B0?si=jngmkdyrN5CqseqT
>>692086894https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2DFWOkioy4about Stardew Valley and sucking off CA
>>692086894>Do you guys have any ideas for next year?I got two in the last day.At least I've written them down. Coming 2025 to a musical near you.
>>692087938>>692087860>>692087759>>692087129four parodies you guys won't be able to do next yeari kid, has that rule actually ever been enforced?
>>692088431as long as there's no lyrics it should be fine, otherwise you could just troll claiming random songs
>>692088431to me, the spirit of that rule has been more about discouraging using written lyrics that have nothing to do with the musical. like anything made in random threads, or even anywhere else on the internet. at this point everyone is writing lyrics throughout the year anyway like an open secret
>>692088838>>692088556yeah that's what I thought.
>>692086894>any ideas for next year?>implyinguh listen sport i don't know how to break this to you but your mom and i are getting a discord>a discord?i meant a divorce. don't worry, nothing will change. it'll be just like it was before
>>692086894I just hope there's more big happenings next year. I have a whole folder full of instrumentals for songs I've considered parodying but I just couldn't think of any good, relevant topics that'd fit them.I tried brainstorming 3 or 4 different songs I could potentially make a Concord parody out of, but I just didn't give enough of a shit about it to get very far with any of them, and honestly a 15 second joke song being the only thing Concord gets from the musical is just too perfect, wouldn't wanna ruin that.
>someone sang your fucking song after allthis must be what it's like to watch your retarded baby grow up and leave the nest. thank you based singchad.
>>692088838>discouraging using written lyrics that have nothing to do with the musical.there are 2 major elements for it1. being able to say WE made this shit, no vagueness or question of ownership2. keeping the project fresh and viable. if we had threads 365 days a year we wouldn't have made it past year 2. faggots procrastinate and shit grows stagnant. even a month feels too long frankly with the way people keep stretching it with things like editing past the deadline or starting a day early or working well into the 16th in many parts of the world. very little gets done for like 20 days in the middle there. part of what keeps the musical hype and special is that you're limited and either strike while the iron is hot or you don't. don't take the 2 minutes to shill that you have been waiting on someone to say like 2 lines as gollum for weeks? better luck next year. If the musical lasted 2 weeks people wouldn't procrastinate like that, they'd be forced to say "lets get this done asap instead of leaving it on the sheet and coming back to it in a few weeks". I don't think we should change that but I think we've bloated.>at this point everyone is writing lyrics throughout the year anyway like an open secretyou people tell on yourselves too much. There's not shot I'm not one of the top people when it comes to quantity of songs written and I've never written anything outside of the month. Half of the people posting how many songs they wrote are posting rookie numbers like 5 or 10, if it takes you a year to do that for how basic most of our parodies are something is seriously wrong. even if you're slow as hell and have high standards a single parody should be a matter of a few hours, most people here are putting more like 15 minutes into their lyrics. I don't even mean that as an insult, but like if the most ambitious line in your entire parody is finding a mildly funny way to word "jannies eat hot pockets" that shit isn't taking a serious amount of time.
>>692089932it's more like inspiration comes at random ass moments during the year, rather than at prescribed musical month.
>>692090043not him but i don't write in advance either. when i get an idea during the year i jot it down on a piece of paper, simple as
>>692088957>I just hope there's more big happenings next year.there are happenings every day, most of them don't get songs. there's thousands of new games every year. there's thousands of board culture topics worth songs that never got them. be more proactive, anons are out here writing songs for Deal-chan, Shadow the Hedgehog, Mr. Bones Wild Ride, UFO 50, Gnosia, yellow paint trend, PS5 Pro, it's so little of a focus that it's more of a benefit of where to start than it is a limit on saying "gosh I wish I could write about Terry Davis even though his connection is loose as shit".
>>6920899322 weeks equals a 50% decrease in viable recording time which equals half as many songs done, which isn't the end of the world but we don't need to get into the politics of a thanos snap
Is there normally a thread after the stream as like an epilogue/post mortem thing? Last year I wanted to talk about some songs the day after the stream but the last thread was over and a new one never showed up.I also thought there would be a thread for the youtube uploads but either I missed it or there wasn't one.
>>692091039we don't really do that. Threads go unti stream's done, the thread dies, and the circus leaves town until next year.
>>692090595see you're just completely wrong here. it's blatantly disregarding the facts. most singers aren't out here singing every moment of the full month. they pick up a song or two here and there, watch a few, and then at the very end they rush and get a bunch of shit done. this year had the smallest "final rush" of any month I've witnessed and we still did like 30% of literally everything in the final 3 days. it is a very common discussion point that some singers "do too much", even if they don't agree there's such a thing as too much, they're not going all out every day of the month as if it's the last day. the singers that don't operate this way and consistently chug out songs maybe go from 15-20 tracks down to 10-15 tracks, the average singers goes from like 2-8 to 2-6 at absolute worst, maybe K fits 1 less song in but she tends to just do everything in the last week anyway so even that is possibly not happening.I'd expect like 15% drop in songs, and a chunk of that 15% would just be less death battles and duets on songs that don't need them. because with less time people would procrastinate less and just do shit. the lord of the rings song got complacent and sat waiting for volunteers to magically say "I am doing this" out of nowhere, so nothing got done. by time they said "hey it's almost too late, can someone help finish this?" they only got 1 of 2 people to fill roles needed because it was fucking 30 minutes before the deadline.
>>692090043you don't need to write a full parody the moment you think of the idea. you can count the number of songs that truly feel "inspired" each year and not just like "it would be neat to make this" on a single hand. Your Ed is a good example, something a few steps past the most barebones idea like "what if I took a song about a character named dora and wrote a song about a character named dora".and again don't get me wrong, I'm not shitting on those ideas, they're often a good starting point and can end up with great songs, but there's no major flash of inspiration behind most of our songs. they tend to be either very literal transitions to keep the song similar to the original like 1999, or wild random ideas that have no clear inspiration or connection behind the matchup like My Seed And Feed. you don't need to do anything other than say "oh I like this song so I'll write the title down in a note for sept".
>>692086894As much as I hate Taylor Swift, a "Back to December" parody called "Back to September" where anon is saddened by the end of the musical and wishes he could just go back to the beginning of the month.>inb4 meta shit
>>692091039there are pocket groups of likeminded people that join up to talk about shit post mortem and maybe even keep the camaraderie up here and there during the year, but we don't tend to do threads for those things. you have to keep in mind that our threads are very directly against the rules of /v/, we're allowed to stay because they don't feel like cracking down on us and benevolently look the other way. abusing that benevolence by pushing the limits can fuck us over. we have had to leave /v/ in the past due to the mods kicking us out and I would fully expect "hey it's mid november, here's another thread for the september to early october project" to be one of the things that could kill our legacy spot.
>>692091424saying "inb4 meta shit" is just admitting you know you fucked up, it doesn't mean the people that would reply are somehow in the wrong. we do not need circlejerk the musical. if you want fan songs for /v/tm, make /v/ the musical the musical to sing about it. /v/ the musical sings about /v/, not about /v/ the musical.
>>692091242>most singers aren't out here singing every moment of the full monthyou have a lot to say but again, I said viable recording time. I can't record on weekdays, so having just one or 2 weekends literally cuts the time in half. more in fact. and if there aren't others like me with similar life constraints I'd be surprised
>>692091545Instant replies.
>>692091546>I said viable recording time.you said a 50% reduction in viable recording time is a 50% reduction in content put out total. which is extremely far from the truth. You might personally put out 50% less, but very many people would put out exactly as much because recording time isn't their limit, motivation to stop procrastinating is.
>>692091605yeah it turns out when you go to a vegan thread to post "haha fuck you guys I eat meat" people will reply to tell you you're a shithead.if you want to jerk other anons off go join their discord. this isn't the place for it so you'll be told off on it when you bring it up, because we don't want other retards seeing you acting retarded and thinking they're welcome to be here.
what is the point of this argumentwe can bump the thread with something fun instead
>>692091760It's fun to piss off anons who think they control the musical.
meta songs are the gay porn of the musical
>>692091474Nobody look at musical 6 and how some (combination of) psychopath(s) kept the threads going into mid-November. Then you start wondering what changed and what notably toxic /a/ browser came to /v/ and started injecting himself into the musical and it starts adding up
>>692091545I do not remember this much hate over meta songs in the past few musicals. was it just that we were too busy dramafagging over J to express it? Or is it more being sick of this shit after a few years of meta openers.
>>692091817all you're doing is fucking up the vibe and thread for the rest of us. they do control the musical, we had no meta songs this year and that was for the best.
>>692091858bigger fish to fry basically. when your house is on fire you don't worry about the cat bowl being empty. when you're bored and the house is fine then you bitch that nobody but you feeds the cat. meta songs have been mocked for as long as they have existed, but it gets lost in the sea when there are bigger issues.
>>692091846granted this was before discords were around so if you did happen to want to talk to the same people the whole year you were SOL>inb4 discord>inb4 skype and messengeryou didn't give out your skype your AIM or your MSN to strangers. Discord is way more anonymous (despite having a name) than them.
>>692091846That says more about the musical if you let one guy take over the way you say.
>>692091997>i say this when discord was released in 2015, and year 6 would have been 2018. jesus christ i feel old.
>>692091997I would agree except this was a year 6-specific issue. Every other year had the good sense to die off after the yt uploads or (in year 7) the livestream
>>692091665>which is extremely far from the truthyou know it's okay to have different theories, neither of us can speak for everyone. but 4 minus 2 is still a loss of 2 at the end of the day
>>692092159did it take a significantly longer time to organize and get the livestream up for year 6?
>>692091858in the past few musicals we had polls deciding if meta songs that got done should be allowed to exist at all even as dlc, it was just a blip on the radar because there was so much else going on. it seems like a big deal this year only because so little other drama happened other than the 1 day of AI wars.
>>692092145Yeah, part of how the whole year 6 drama started was jebus dm'd roco on discord.
>>692092080He simply refuses to die. You think covering songs from the musical (written and performed by other singers) and uploading them to his personal youtube channel would kill his credibility, but he showed up and took lumps for years and years and simply refused to go away until he was apparently unbanned by virtue of never shutting the fuck up about it. Autism is a hell of a drug
>>692092276I mean, hating someone because the cabal told you to is really cringe but you do you.
>>692092276The autist we needed.
>>692092198it is not a theory, it is extremely basic math. if you have 4-2=2 and I have 4-0=4 then that's only a 25% decrease. unless you have a "theory" for why some people will have more than a 50% drop, you have absolutely no ground to stand on to claim that the musical would have a 50% drop from some random distribution of anons experiencing individual drops of between 0% and 50%.
>>692092276I just genuinely do not find these "crimes" even remotely offensive, but opinion are like assholes, we all have them.
>>692091242>maybe K fits 1 less song inkek and nah, I might record late but I also spend a fair amount of time on prep
>>692092407and we can add>hitting on a girl>a dox that was never proven>tweeting "lol musical drama">livestreaming himself playing guitar while we dramafagged without him proving that he wasn't the one shitting up the threadslike, okay, some of these are obtuse but they're not crazy.
>>692092407the "crimes" aren't offensive. a tiny number of people have a grudge and find excuses to justify the grudge. oh no, a guy dm'd the same girl that other anons literally lined up to fuck IRL in offline meetups? guess which one of those 2 events caused a max exodus of singfags? because it wasn't the dm.
>>692092276If anything, uploading to his youtube improved his credibility.
>>692092510>>692092503not to mention that the people trumpeting his ban while they had cabal backing claimed "we" voted on it, when it was a secret vote amongst the singfag clique.
>>692092558discord is the real enemy. the singfag discord fucked up so much of the musical.
>>692092374>half the time>half the songsit's not outlandish, don't be upset
>>692092516Theoretical question: What if literally anybody else on the planet took these songs and made covers for their own personal youtube?
>>692092579>tfw there's 2 now
>>692092604Why would that matter? It's one thing if he ripped songs verbatim but people do covers all the fucking time of mainstream and amateur music alike.
>>692092604Literally nobody else has been banned from the musical except people who don't matter and roco through guilt.
keep hearing about november but it looks like the final thread of 2018 was when the stream ended https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/436730265/
>>692092654don't forget mobilecamanon
>>692092680mobilecameron, by the way, for shilling his own song on twitter. He was either the original writer or performer, not a theif. iirc he later came back and did work as anonymous>>692092201I don't remember if there was a stream that year, and the b4k isn't working for me right now. The threads definitely lasted into November and iirc even past Nov 15th
>>692092604if you are suggestion what would happen if anons uploaded our songs to their youtube, we already know because tons of them do exactly that. very few people give poornon shit for uploading stuff like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLHqST-6QAQ with absolutely no credit to /v/tm because nobody has a grudge against him. there are literal dozens of people that upload tracks from here.
>>692091312speak for yourself, thinking of how to change song lyrics into vidya has been a shower ritual for me
>>692092794>He was either the original writer or performer, not a theif.Can you prove he's taken songs that he didn't write or sing himself?
>>692092853what?
>>692092582I accept your concession that you cannot counter basic math
>>692092841hell, i do it on some random bullshit youtube channel sometimes when I want to store my favorites. it's a channel that gets zero views so I don't gaf.
>>692092853https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68bnGR5RsKoThe majority of these were originally made before musical 6, when he joined
>>692092909sorry, you're banned dont come back
>>692092970oh nyoooooo
>>692092893bad faith
>>692092968okay but he's the one singing the songs...?
>>692092841Pretty sure music videos being on one's own channel was always allowed.Your example is plainly a video, not just the song.
>>692092841damn, why don't I have my own youtube parody channel. I bet that's fun
i'll admit, circulating the hot goss from years past is fun, but i'm happy we stopped doing this during production.
>>692092968>direct and proper credit to /v/tm in the title of the video itselflet me guess, you're going for the hypocritical angle that even though /v/tm exists solely to take music content from other people and "parody" it without permission (steal), our content is sacred and nobody else can touch it?let's be real for a second. Jebus is a /v/tm fanboy and a fuckin' nerd. doing unofficial covers of the songs for fun on his own time is harmless. if the best dirt you have on him is that he likes /v/tm enough to sing ancient songs, well I guess you should become a lawyer because you'd love suing all these people uploading covers of songs, there's literal millions of them.
>>692093035the part where no credit to /v/tm is given and it's not submitted to the /v/tm song video playlists is suspect at best if we're going to crucify people for their youtubes.
>>692093156not a single person here has ever posted my channel, but I do parodies outside of /v/tm sometimes for fun. you should do it if you enjoy it, it's not only good practice for stuff like this but it's healthy to give yourself something creative to do
objectively roco's drama is way more interesting than jebus's
>>692093313Not gonna argue there. Really I think the whole thing is overblown.
>>692093264The entire intent of the musical is to make silly shit without thinking of how to promote yourself, you were told as much last year when you started this apology tour and made your little discord https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/650871579/#650923290
>>692093535so I guess we're banning Jebus and poornon now then? who else has a youtube, I'm pretty sure kiwi had one.
okay pump the brakes the goyim are getting too knowledgable.
>>692093535fuck, we need to ban K's kid... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6ySC_RsVc4
>>692093560Greene obviously.
>>692093535talking to his butt buddies as if they're him doesn't do you any good. there's at least three of them unfortunately. always filling the thread with posts about their little leader when everyone should just move on and shut up
>>692093684oh fuck his name is on it and everything and he's covered it with our banners and shit, why didn't anyone tell yaypyroo about this? it's just fucking blatant self promotion
>>692093719literally none of this happened during production this year.
>>692093719>always filling the thread with posts about their little leader when everyone should just move on and shut upwe had almost no jebus drama this entire monthdon't blame the people defending the guy when faggots like >>692091846 are going out of the way to derail the thread with his drama, that post sparked this entire series of chains by itself and it did so intentonally
>>692093801>>692093840I don't give a fuck, it shouldn't happen at all, shut up and move on
>>692093840totopo lighten up the entire point of this is to get it out of our system for a year. Despite agreeing not to do it all musical we are gossip-obsessed addicts who need to keep circulating these stories. Because we don't watch soap operas.
>>692093914YOU are part of the goddamn problem. you don't get to stir the pot and blame the people that aren't starting shit and then act like a child and go "I don't care" the moment it's pointed out that your post is full of misinformation. Shut the fuck up yourself if you want to.
What songs still need mixing? I'll do a few when I'm home.
we could all shut the fuck up together. in a small room. naked.
>>692093719>talking to his butt buddies as if they're him doesn't do you any good.Jebus you're spooked. Go to bed, nigga.
>>692093675absolutely sinister channel
>>692093992If you look at the album order they're all conveniently highlighted now, I think there's only like 7 left to do?
>>692093981I am telling you to shut the fuck up and you can't handle it, fuck off
at this point i'm genuinely not sure where the psyops begin and actual trolls begin.
>>692094080No, I'm telling you to stop being a hypocrite and shut the fuck up yourself, because you don't get to start this bullshit and then pretend you have the high ground when you clearly don't actually stand behind your words or actually care about who's right and wrong. if you want to stir the pot so much fuck off to somewhere else to do it.
i'll stir your pot totopo
>>692094156totopo, none of us cared about any of this, we were just bumping the thread. At least i fucking hope so lmao
why don't we just ban all the videofags uploading to their own channels? just blatant self promotion
For the last time, it's not my discord!
What happened to the cover art for x givin' timmies to ya?
>>692094156you are being a huge retard, stop posting
I do find it ironic that discord is blamed for so much drama and garbage posting when in reality the discord is more like a lazy circlejerk of the same few people waiting until the next year is here and at most asking for advice on an in progress song somewhere people will actually help you
>>692094353Literally the current /v/tm discord
>>692094353well yeah because 4chan hates discord and blames it for all its troubles. It's just more of the same.
>>692094290Nah, fuck off, if we need the bumps that badly I'll get them for us by telling it how it is. fuck off yourself if you don't like the truth when it's pointed out.
>>692094404there's no we, go back to your hole

i just happened to notice, why is the poal.me public polls obsessed with vtubers?
>>692094668People obsessed with /v/tubers often smoke polls
>>692082550This is why most people sing along to the instrumental.
>>692095190It's half-and-half, depending on the song. Obviously only when the original and instrumental line up perfectly.Sometimes I record a special track where I give myself stage directions, like counting down when to come in after the bridge. Surprisingly effective.
>>692066963Found the issue: having multiple instances of AutoTune open maks SO insanely slow for some reason, so I removed it from the harmonies to work and forgot to add it back before rendering. Fixed: https://krakenfiles.com/view/wwDLq5BDqN/file.html
>>692095701I love this song art so much. It's so simple and so stupid and so effective. Makes me smile every time I see it.
Favourite SONG art this year (that you didn't make yourself)?
>>692095862my a-> (that you didn't make yourself)... uh, idk
>>692095862looking at the folder, how could anyone not love 1999.

>>692095862elden ring someone suing
>>692092841>very few people give poornon shit for uploading stuff with absolutely no credit to /v/tmWe should. In the early days he'd have been banned for that.
>>692096410we know grandpa, things change. you'd have too ban a dozen people if we investigated youtube to find people to ban, it's just a waste of time for everyone involved for what is meant to be a fun project to make stuff with other anons.
>>692095862the minesweeper art strikes a very nice balance of parodying the original art, being very obvious about what the topic of the parody is, and looking clean and attractive without being too simple. good details line lining up the bombs patches to the original art.
Bit late again, after I got home from my wage cage, I went straight to bed because apparently I got sick as fucking hell out of nowhere today. Howdy Anon, it's that time of year againMusical's over. What are you workan on?Time-stampan lyrics to help the stream?Relaxan after a job well done?Listenan to some of the tracks in advance?Writan some of those ideas you couldn't get out before the deadline to prep for next year?Sittan on your butt and waitan for the release?I'm going back to bed to hopefully sleep off whatever the hell this is.

will there be a stream/watchparty of every track?
>>692109254Yes, we're doing one song every day.>>692105668Added. Please let us know if you find more!
>>692109254We usually have a stream a week or two after everything is compiled
>>692097039relaxan after grindan. put in genuine effort for once. it was fun and satisfying, but exhausting and kinda gay. wouldn't have happened without a heads up, so thanks to whoever was posting reminders in snoy threads the week before
>>692095701Anon who made this song art, could you do a version with lower case text?
https://krakenfiles.com/view/58CayVS8ah/file.html
>>692111306Yeah, I'll give to you after work in about nine hours if that's okay. I did the upper case for the image macro vibes. Should I keep the impact font if I'm making it lower case?
>>692113181Do it if it looks good.
>>692093675Its kinda funny and strange how this kid has the exact same K style of mumble singing (and doing backing vocals).Can't be K's kid, not british.
>>692092679I was around back thenThe threads did last until November because people didn't wanna let go.
@anon that wrote apaches.I'll give it a shot next year if some of the lyrics are tweaked to have the right stress/syllable count.
>>692114304Can you provide any examples of stuff that needs changing or would that disqualify the song next year?
>>692114018Out of curiosity, we keep hearing about how we're granted exceptions from the rules about making "generals", but wouldn't that be on the poster if they wanted to make threads after the project (getting a 3 day or whatever), and not the entire project? Or are the jannies that obtuse?
>>692114710this rule is basically don't ask don't tell.
>>692114818the issue is that at the scale of 4chan if rulebreaking is tolerated it quickly becomes unworkable. They have to act like the Astartes because of how massive the site is.
>>692114941>implying reens don't break rulesonly girlyman and the smurfs care about his babby dex
>>692114818I also remember back in Year 6, there was also a /vg/ thread (which was much much more slow).I think in Year 7 we were posting almost exclusively on /vg/ because the mods got really mad at these threads for that particular year for some reason.

Have we ever had a song about flash games?

>one of my songs gets nominated as an opener>looked like it was doing good>opposition surgesNot even mad. The competition was good enough on that one I was considering voting against my own song. I'm just happy that it got any votes.
>A Scarred’s Pain a-Gonna BawlYou have got to be kidding me. How did this song pass under my radar? I was asking for people to make a parody with the source material. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>692055454Made an instrumental for I'm A Little Shitpost:https://krakenfiles.com/view/XQ1ws8r1R8/file.html
>>692116796theres a candle in the wind one when flash got killed off
>>692119584I'm still really mad about that. even if newgrounds is entirely usable, it's annoying to see "lol get ruffle nerd" on every flash game archived.
Alright I'm home now. Is anyone editing Sweet ol' E3?
>>692122497Yes! https://krakenfiles.com/view/MzRhvLZBE2/file.html
>>692122653Nice, I was thinking of picking it up but it seems I won't need to.Are you using REAPER with that pack of plugins that was shilled during the musical?I was wondering since I found that there's a nice trick pretty much exclusively for parodies you can do with Ozone and Audiolens where you record an isolation of the original vocals (gotten via UVR) to create a preset with the same dynamics and width as the original vocals. After you then apply Ozone's "learn" tool that lets you enhance shit automatically you can then just pick the preset you just recorded and automatch the dynamics and width of anon's vocals.The rest is reverb, FX, cleanup, timing, volume and vocoders and whatnot, but it really helps.
>>692122653Hall of Shame nominee potential
>>692055454https://krakenfiles.com/view/KfjP8eCqjc/file.html>>692123537I'm using Studio One. I've tried that trick and it's neat, but I didn't use it here cause I don't want to kill the SOVL of the performance.
>>692123798Ah, kiwi then right? Well the DAW shouldn't matter, the trick just werks with the Izotope suite. But yeah sometimes it's worthwhile not using it, or at least not relying entirely on it since you can control how much it conforms to the width and dynamics.I feel like it helped save a few of my tracks this year at least.
>>692123537>Are you using REAPER with that pack of plugins that was shilled during the musical?Can someone post it again?With all the stuff we've collected this year like Vocalign and the Synth thing?
>>692123949No I'm anonymous. Kiwi uses Adobe Audition.
>>692124235This one has Vocalign and Vocalsynth 2 in it, right? Also some bonuses for some extra options.https://files.catbox.moe/kcjndk.zipI do wonder what else could be stuffed in it though.
>>692124235Here's a resource of torrents for plugins you can use to help you get started with mixing your vocals and stuff later on, I pulled all of them from RuTracker: https://files.catbox.moe/kcjndk.zipUse Qbittorrent to get the torrents working.We recently got Vocalign 6, a tool that lets you "sync" different stems of vocals automatically.For audio software, I recommend REAPER. It's not as easy as Audacity, but once you learn it you'll be able to do whatever you need: https://www.reaper.fm/download.phpWe have a mixing template for it, too: https://krakenfiles.com/view/KkXQIw2zdS/file.html - Also included in the torrent ZIP.In case you have a powerful enough PC, this is what you can use to remove vocals from songs you've downloaded: https://github.com/Anjok07/ultimatevocalremoverguiIn case you need high quality files for songs you like, the best bet is to find them using Soulseek: https://www.slsknet.org/news/node/1And finally, in case your music only exists in the form of a Youtube video, here is YT-DLP. It's CLI, but it works well enough if you remember to use "yt-dlp -x --audio-format flac": https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlpYT-DLP has a few GUI implementations, such as TarTube: https://tartube.sourceforge.io/There are still a few General Edits tracks that need mixan and I don't wanna do them all.
>>692123537>I was wondering since I found that there's a nice trick pretty much exclusively for parodies you can do with Ozone and Audiolens where you record an isolation of the original vocals (gotten via UVR) to create a preset with the same dynamics and width as the original vocals. After you then apply Ozone's "learn" tool that lets you enhance shit automatically you can then just pick the preset you just recorded and automatch the dynamics and width of anon's vocals.I'm really interested about this, can you please share the links and maybe a tutorial?
>>692124486Editfag I would give you a blowjob if I could
>>692124518All of the software is gotten via the torrents in >>692124476And it's pretty simple actuallyAudiolens>Program that is not a plugin, you open it on your desktop and record audio that you hear playing while it is open.>Use UltimateVocalRemover to extract vocals from a song, put it in the DAW (REAPER in this example) and record with Audiolens>After recording the section of the vocals you want (a chorus and a verse could be mixed differently FYI so it's useful to split the recordings between those sections) you can save them, title them after the song or whateverThen ontoOzone>Ozone is an actual plugin in DAWs, its supposed to be for mastering a mix, while Nectar which is in the ZIP is for effects and Neutron is mostly for instruments or fucking with the quality of the sound>Add Ozone as a plugin on your vocal track, and if the chorus has different mixing then give it its own Ozone instance>Click the "Assistant view" button that's red/blue and learns your track and what to improve>after its done you can just go to the preset section where it mentions rock/pop/rap whatever and click around the menu until you find your own saved presets>these saved presets include your audiolens ones, pick one and let it fix the Ozone setup to what Audiolens had recorded>after its done, use the menu to make the Width and Dynamics 100% matchand then it'll probably sound closer to the original vocals in a master, though you'll still need to put in work for the reverb and stuffNectar and Neutron also have the ability to use these presets but I haven't figured out what they do differently or if they add reverb or no and such.I'm probably over explaining this, but once you learn the trick it takes like 2 minutes tops
I'm gonna try my hand at City Jam
>>692124476Stuff I use that's not in the bundle (since I didn't make it):>FabFilterTheir plugins are really nice. I use Pro-Q3 and Pro-C2 on pretty much everything.>AutoTuneI don't use it a lot but sometimes it's better than Melodyne.>SoftubeTheir Saturation Knob can really bring out a vocal, though it should be used sparingly.>ToonTrackEZDrummer, EZBass, EZKeys are invaluable, though largely irrelevant for the musical unless you wanna make OC.>Wavesfactory You ever want to recreate that slowdown effect some pop songs use now? That's a tape stop, and Wavesfactory's Casette Transport is a good one. You won't even have to pirate it: https://www.wavesfactory.com/free-vst-plugins/
>>692124620What if Editfag is a girl?We have no evidence of them being male.
>>692125382What if Editfag is is straight and we've been calling them a fag the whole time?
>>692125145Can we get a basic tutorial on reverb and stuff too? I'll compile it all for next year and make sure that it's all posted in every thread or easily accessible in a rentry in the OP every time.
>>692125382Then I'd give her a blowjob
>>692125145I'm still trying to understand what is the point of Audiolens.If I have the vocals, can't I just split them in sections and render them on Reaper itself?
>>692125598Audiolens is just about recording how something sounds and letting you mimic how it sounds. Doing that in REAPER by yourself means you'll rely pretty much entirely on your ear.
>iZotope "assistant" trashMe? I make my own vocal processing chains, how could you tell?
>>692125494Use the mix template, adjust to taste.The key to reverb is putting it on a separate bus and sending the vocal tracks to that bus, instead of putting the reverb directly on the track. This makes the vocals blend better together, you get independent control of the dry signal and wet signal, and it saves CPU usage.
>>692125245Based.>BlurHow have we never done Song 2?
>>692125494I mean I know a few of those things but I'm not the reverb expert, Editfag is, I just picked up some methods after working my way through enough songs to necessitate it>>692125378I can probably throw these into the bundle too, though I'll make a point of what's most beginner friendly.
>>692117302Can someone explain to me how a mouse click shows up in the files? Surely editor isn't playing them out loud and rerecording them?

>>692129046i'll give it a minute while I get the rest of these links together.
>>692129117Which song are you missing? I might have it.
>>692129162well, I haven't download any of these because this usually isn't a problem, if you wanna be a god and just send me a drive link with all of it I could get this underway right now (If you already have it)
>>692128969It is not like you are held at gunpoint for the polls to happen in an hour, it can be in two, whenever you can set them up.Hell we could make them run for 36h? instead of 24 to make sure no retard misses it
>>692129238Sure.
>>692128913Can K post her vocals of Six Ninety Nine so we can get a proper mix?
>>692129215I have some, not all, that's why I asked.>>692129301Idk you'll have to ask her when she comes back.
they're downloading fine guys
whoever made (It's-a Me) Nintendo mumblecore3.mp3 you have like 20 minutes to give me a flac (assuming you recorded lossless) or else i'm using the mp3
>>692086894I wanna do a song about the Arkbird from AC5 with this obscure Swedish proghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6kW2qHmGkU
Has GNOSIS flac been uploaded yet or is it still mp3?
>>692128583Put all 3 versions of Bait up for DEATH BATTLE since the other singfag didn't say okay to being a duet.>>692129606That was K. K!!
these are the up to date contenders for Diversity, right?https://krakenfiles.com/view/Y7VJKpC3HS/file.htmlhttps://krakenfiles.com/view/qapKbthPzI/file.html>>692130364Mama K givin me mp3, you hate to see it. but of course i'll poll it.
>>692130161>>692129606K will upload them before we compile. She uploads through smoke signals so it takes a while.
>>692130419Someone said they did an actual mix for the serious version somewhere in here if you want to check that out and use it >>692103062
>>692130685I'll poll all 3 for that.
i'll be honest I thought General Sturm would be the advance wars general, and I was a bit more excited.
>>692130864It's Sturn not Sturm. Advanced Wars x WH40K would be quite a thing though
>>692130743Only if you do it in a separate poll. Otherwise the votes for a single performance are going to be divided.
>>692131078ah. Okay, i see your point
granted i almost want someone else to poll diversity because I'm one of the options, but as long as you guys are okay with me setting up the polls i'll do it.
>>692131290Just do a poll for mix (passable/vocalFinal) and another for type (shitpost/serious).In that order I believe.
>>692130419yeah, >>692103062 is the one i was working on yesterday and what i consider the final mixi did make a sliiiight tweak to one word in the vocals i haven't posted but it's so small it doesn't matter and can provably waitt. diversity's write/producerfag
>>692131795so you're okay if it's just that one and my silly one
>>692130864in the black hole armymy c-o is fucking flakwish we could fight andy/samiinstead of always lose to maxthose direct attacks
>>692131903silly one as in the shitpost version? sure, why noti'm obviously biased towards the serious version though
I’ll be honestI hear no difference between mp3 and flac and I’m tired of pretending there is
>>692132123I still believe it is better to have anonika's take going on in the background during the whole song. Specially his beggining and end phrases..t faggot who made the first draft mix
>>692132196well without 500 dollar headphones, you wont. There's a reason it's for audiophiles and it's because they actually have the equipment to tell.e
>>692132272I'll include it. Sorry for being flip-floppy (it's kind of my thing), I'm just trying to keep overhead down, it's hard enough to do this over work-fi.
Is "Revoked (you had to agree) a mix battle or two different singers? can't check cuz bandwidth sucks.
>>692132272As someone who ||sang|| most of the versions of Diversity, I agree, we need Anonikas vocals in the background. As much as I like anons serious mix with the melodyne, I'd rather it be a battle between the anon group version and anonikas.
>>692132706It's a mix battle.
>>692133059Thanks!
>>692132921I made this real quick, what do you guys thinkhttps://krakenfiles.com/view/DDHLPl0T2B/file.html
you guys are okay with a poll being "1" "2" "3" with a link to the gofile, right? (So you would vote for "1" if the first file in the gofile is what you want.) I can make it fancy but it will take more time.
>>692132921i'll see if i can add them to my mix later in a way that (hopefully) isn't too "overwhelming"if that's the version that ends up winning though i'd still like to have the serious one in DLC or something
>>692133298The contrast between the voices and anonika's being completely off time makes me smile so much
>>69213329>nice serious vocals>suddenly>I DON WAN SEE DAT IN MY VIDYAI'm choking on sweet tea at a chilis right now.
Next thread we need all version of Diversity posted so we can make a single release with 10 versions of the same song like (It's-a Me) Nintendo.
death battles are gonna be next thread btw.
>>692132196FLAC is primarily for archival and production. MP3 for listening is fine though it's a waste of space, opus is so much better.
>>692132921>discord spoilersEmbarrassing.
>>692134391It actually is, I forgot where I was for a minute. Imma go kms now.
>>692134453granted I don't know how much we should mock discord anymore, it's kinda required to do anything these days. Just don't join tranny servers.
>mfw trying to fit 5 (five) vocal tracks in a single mixalso where's this discord i keep hearing so much about, i joined last year but it's gone now
>>692134547Speaking of servers where tranny singers can allowed, you're welcome to join the current /v/tm discord if you want.
>>692134641>mixing audio recordings in FL StudioI feel so bad for you.
>>692134734meh, it literally just werks for methe vocals have all been preprocessed and exported from melodyne anyway so they're only really there to be run through the FX chain
for Diversity, I think it makes the most sense to poll one serious and one goofy (that is to say, the v3 anonika and the melodyne version version.) If anonika (me) loses we will have a battle to decide which serious one we use. Does this make sense?
>>692135265I think the serious one is made better by your vocals in the background
>>692135321Which file is that?
