It's fine. We're all men here, and have all displayed our testosterone-fueled rage at some point.

I appreciate efforts made to fix stuff B)

ALL messages have been sent out. 10 out of 21 songs needed some fix. Didn't send messages to the people who would obviously see this very quickly, like Bonkers, and KotR. :P

I guess our track needs some fixes too, does it? If so, I'll give a hand. :)


Production fixes, no hand necessary. I'm going to end up completely re-recording it, again. :blink:
Some of the "timing issues" I can't even hear.. it's like they're listening by miliseconds.. maybe they've run the album through some kind of analysis machine to catch the unheard flaws. :P

They wanted you to make the album in FL Studio.

Well, Since My OG project file for Prelude was made almost a year and a half ago (with all re-do's using the same project file), I've figured out that my track layout is just too fucked up to work with. As well as some routing issues/other poorly done things that make it easier to just re-do everything from scratch. So using what I can from the old project, I will start over. Make it less chiptune-ish and and "Less repetitive". I'll probably just end up using the Old version as an omake track on my own and put it on youtube or something/put it in DoD as an Alt track for a free month (since it technically hasn't been released)

Hopefully shouldn't take too long, but since the 4th of july is coming up , my leg is still messed up and I'm moving back to Oregon. It may not be as quick as I thought getting it all done.
Luckily maintheme is all done, just need to make minor adjustments and re-master it (since I already fixed most issues before we finally got feedback).

Really stinks you gotta redo again Bonker.. :( Especially since your song was pretty impressively produced to begin with.. I mean i've heard a lot of home-made metal, and even a lot of Pro / underground stuff... most of the people with fixes to make rival if not surpass most of the new underground metal coming out, and that's pro-level. It's definitely among the best of the home-made stuff as well. Mirrorthrone comes to mind. I'd say your production is almost as good as the latest Mirrorthrone thing. And that was on the Brutal Legend game. Well this is turning into a bit of a rant. The point I'm trying to make is I loved everyone's work and I thought it was really well done, some of the issues they mentioned are legit but others seem like an exaggeration of an issue that isn't as offensive as they make it out to be. I guess it's good that they're pushing for all of the songs to be "perfect" because in the end, that'll probably turn out to be an asset for the album. But it does seem a bit discriminatory. I've only ever called it like I've seen it with OCR, apparently that makes me a wet blanket who often says stupid shit. In the end, you're going to like a song or you aren't and you will find reasons to not like it.

Having ranted that, I still really appreciate everyone's hard work.

this one?

I thoguht it was a really well made trailer

the "rock" bits are totally out of character i thought

they really kind of harshed my mellow

I think some of the songs that need fixes were more refined than that one, especially yours and M-H et al, but just because it's in the trailer doesn't mean it passed the panel, so that doesn't mean anything ;D

I thought the rock song in the trailer fit very well because of the characters being show that the track is associated with. Also, I will admit full bias to the fact that I did direct the damn album :P

Having said that, I know that the OCR evaluations can be harsh. Understand that I, as one of the people who evaluated the album, kept in mind the same quality standards that I held when I was directing my own project, and the same as when I am evaluating any other albums. I know how badly Brandon wants to get the album out there, and up on OCR (regardless of any real/faux trolling taking potshots at the way things are done over there). Even if I can speak in the royal "we", I want to express that I am thankful for people going back and making the fixes. This album does have the potential to be awesome, and be the unequivocally most metal and beastly album OCR has posted to date. It was VERY close on the first runthrough, and getting it to that point took a lot of time and skill on the part of everyone involved here.

There is no case of being discriminatory here. Aiming high is always a good thing, especially since you are less likely to look back later on and see issues that you wish you could have fixed. Personally, I look back at some of my earlier stuff that I thought was pure gold then and see holes the size of Hawaii in them. If this really were discriminatory, the album would have been rejected and told to not be fixed. It isn't like it is a joy to make people go back and fix things. We're not monsters :D

Wow, I ranted a bit more than I expected. Anyways, I'm looking forward to the revisions.

What specifically needed to be changed overall? EQ? Volume levels? Other stuff?

It depended on the song, but that's up to Brandon to convey as our feedback is meant for the director only.

Thanks for your posts here. :)

Yeah, the feedback was shared with those who needed to make fixes, and posted on the Facebook group for the project(s). It wasn't published publicly. Though anyone who received feedback is free to share it here on their own. :D

y u love justin bieber? :(

Now 3 out of 10 tracks are on the panel to be judged, 2 more are almost done being fixed.. that leaves 5 (half) of them that are in the wind! M-H's session is crashing in his Cubase because Windows is evil, NintenJoe64 has apparently lost his passion for vg-remixing, AMT is supposed to be sending me some clean WAVs for me to mix and master his song with.... last I heard blackguitar was sending his stuff to an engineer to get remixed, and TheoConfidor is up for fixes but 'life' is going on so it's a matter of waiting and seeing! :ph34r:

That's where we stand right now with the fixes

Well i'm officially Fuckin pissed off.

Here I am, 6AM just working along on my fixes and shit (huge fixes)
And I do something, Hit Ctrl-Z like I normally do, to undo shit. And Fuckin reverted back to when I started working like 3 hours ago, I lost everything and I panic'd and hit the save button and tried to redo- (Ctrl+shift+Z in my DAW) and it didn't work>
Close out , reload.
Back where I was 3 hours ago.



FOR FUCKING FUCKS FUCKING SAKE!



AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Eh, I had a similar thing the other day.

Program crashed and I thought shit, loaded it back up and it had auto-saved. Thinking it had saved where it had crashed I finished the bit I was doing, mixed down and thought nothing of it.

Then (since its just demo stuff) I cleared my computer of all the individual files only to listen to the mixdown and there was just about everything wrong with it. But at least it's only a demo.

Tough luck there man.
