I do my wav kick so much different haha! Have you guys had any luck coming up with a good noise kick? I mangle that channel every way I can, but I just can't get anything deep enough
I found a pretty good one in a youtube tutorial, of all places. I'll have to see if I can re-find it...
It's WAV actually. It's the only channel I use for kick now haha. I have it set up like this:
pretty simple and I'm sure everyone does it this way hehu
Haha, that's not at all how I do my WAV kick!
I'm using this lately:
Instrument is set to manual. It starts off with a slower pitch slide to give it more of a thud on the attack. I use at around C6. I think it sounds pretty good, but since the volume of the kick is on the low side you have to keep all your other channels under 7 (like my lead is usually 68 or 58) or they overpower the kick.
Kommisar, I was re-listening to your fantastic entry this week and I was wondering: is that a noise kick? How'd you manage that? It sounds great!
This isn't even normally my kind of music, but this release is so monstrously badass that I can't resist.

wer's erryone at?
I spent the weekend in bed with a high fever. I couldn't even summon the will to write for an hour. Lame. All the submissions were tight though! Sorry I missed out. 
I guess there's no challenge this week?
I'm actually hyped about this week.
Me too. I'm a really slow composer and a hopeless, endless practitioner of "edit while you write", so being forced to do something super fast sounds like fun.
Speaking of me being unsure about composing in this style, would anyone like to take a listen to my tracks and give me CC or pointers?
@Wedanced: Send it to me or face the excruciating consequences. I mean it. [email protected]
@Hpizzle: Shop screen ~'d
And feel free to write more. I will grab at least 1 from each artist then will go from there when deciding who gets more depending on
what other themes theyve done.@Jredd: Send me that shit and I'll check it out. "Bonus stage" is a good idea. If it fits that...then it's added to the list!
EDIT: For those of you who have a larger presence than I do over at 8bc could you please recommend this comp to any TALENTED Acquaintances you've got over there. I didn't make a thread over there for the sole reason of keeping this comp filled with high quality artists (whether new or old). Doomsberry and I are tight since my blog post about him so I'll get in contact with him. Would LOVE to have him put something together for us.
Sweet! Doomsberry is one of the Great Underrated artists on 8bc, in my opinion. (You know, along with all the other underrated peeps on 8bc...)
I've done a few tracks in the hopes of pulling something together for this, but I'm not so sure about them. This style is kind of tough for me, apparently. I'll keep plugging away at it, but I don't want to contribute if my tracks are crap!
A original nintendo produced game sound track would be cool. RPG or side scroller style no DPCM. Just a thought for the next
RPG or side scroller would be fun. I'd like to try a cheery, mario-esqu side scroller. Something with bouncy major key music with. Maybe a polka or circus lilt to it. Sure you could still have the spooky underground stage music, but making maddeningly cheerful or cute music could be a blast.
Yo 8-Bit-Rex! Questions:
Deadline?
And, can I just send you a track with no specified theme? Like maybe you can find a place for it?
Sent you a "Future" track with an odd time signature! Check your PM Box
.
Curse you, Jredd! I was composing the most futuristic track OF ALL TIME! OF ALL TIME!
Or maybe it's more of a "Final Stage" kind of tune. 
I'm sure I can re-appropriate it...
I've never really tried to do Konami/Capcom style, but I'd like to give it a shot! Is there a preferred length? I read looped twice and fade, but how long should I shoot for?
Yay, I'll actually have something to contribute to this now!
Bluegrass, bitchezzz!
Haha. I do have a mandolin and a banjo. I should try to make some chipgrass.
Are there any chiptunes with lyrics about meth addiction and pickup trucks?
What part, man? B'ham? Huntsvegas? I'm down in the Auburn area.
Huntsvegas! Well, Technically Madison, but it's like the same thing.
the future is here bros.
and it's kind of coming at your face
FTFY
Did this thing ever happen?
I'm chippin' alone in Northern Alabama.
