This is an interesting experiment you're working on, I'm looking forward to seeing what happens!

Re: Medusa 2 (VSTi for Windows) (38 replies, posted in Software & Plug-ins)
I guess I'd just like the vibrato delay as a way of customizing the instrument slightly further, as well as being a simple way of making ending vibrato. Maybe I'm just lazy. That's a great idea linking it to pitch attack though, I wouldn't want the interface to change either as it looks sleek as is.

This plugin is excellent. The only feature I would like to see added is the ability to set a delay for the vibrato, that would really complete this for me.

Mic control is mainly just for live work.
In the studio the vocalist should stay as stationary as is comfortably possible, let the voice channel comp sort out any loud bits and/or bring up the quiet bits. If they start moving about you can get weird phasing type noises, especially with any sibilance.
You can always spot a singer who has done mainly studio or live by their mic technique
Whoops, I feel like I should have known that. I know how much studio engineers can care about mic placement. Sorry if I misled anyone.

Re: A new resource : Soundfonts for chipmusic and retro games (15 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Hell, I'd be satisfied with just .wav samples. I'm not exactly sure what, if any, advantages there are to soundfonts; I just like them because it's one file seperated into instrument banks. Somehow (perhaps erroneously), I find that more convenient.

Re: vocal smoothing (32 replies, posted in Audio Production)
Experienced singers with mike technique back off the microphone a bit during louder moments, and come in closer during those intimately quiet sections. This certainly helps cut back on the amount of compression you have to use, because too much compression and you lose the dynamics anyway. Or so I've heard...

Re: Hero Core OST - the soundtrack to an independent game by Daniel Remar (16 replies, posted in Releases)
It seems to me that the game has a Metroid inspired feel, and the music possesses the minimalism that made Metroid's score so great. There's some good tunes in this, some highlights of mine being tracks 1, 3, 7 and 14. Nice work, I'll have to check the game out.

You should definitely check out Linde's latest release, and I'm not sure if this is lame self promotion, but I've written some pretty mellow stuff in the past:

Re: ant1 (22 replies, posted in Releases)
Interesting release, I found myself enjoying the minimalist pieces alot; Tracks 1, 8 and 15 in particular. There's potential for extending many pieces, was it a stylistic choice to truncate them? In any case it was a fun listen.

Re: One-second songs compilation! (52 replies, posted in Collaborations)
The way for this to become something more than an album of musical non-sequiturs, is if everyone agreed on a small set of tempos and keys, that way there would be a few "mini suites". Although I suppose it might take too much organization, and it's probably not the desired outcome. Perhaps an idea for another compilation.
