wait, 35 lots? a lot is like, a bunch of stuff at once. like saying "how much for the lot" when you want everything, usually a system, controllers, several games, accessories, etc. 34 of these are single items, and one is like, a 4 game bundle.

damn, this dude's gone for a year and he shows up to sell us stuff and doesn't even give a real link

that's cold

Alright, so I'm doing what I can at the moment. The .opm files can be opened with a text editor, they're basically MML files as far as i can tell. In the text file they show up in a different order than in VOPM. I was just figuring it out by comparing across two different laptops, and then I realized it was written at the top of the .opm:

//MiOPMdrv sound bank Paramer Ver2002.04.22

//LFO: LFRQ AMD PMD WF NFRQ
LFRQ just being FRQ in the LFO section of VOPM, and NFRQ controlling NFRQ in the PROG section.

//CH:   PAN    FL CON AMS PMS SLOT NE

This is the PROG section of VOPM. Pan seems to have no use.

CON being the algorythm used, and i'm guessing NE is noise.

I'm not sure what SLOT is a control for. It might just be whether or not an instrument shows up in VOPM, as all the usable instruments are set to 120, while all the blank ones are set to 64.

WF would be the waveform of the LFO, i'm guessing 0 = saw, 1= square, 2= tri, 3= noise

//[OPname]: AR D1R D2R    RR D1L    TL    KS MUL DT1 DT2 AMS-EN

Since each OP has it's own set of commands, I'm guessing AMS-EN is 0 for off, 1 for on. the AMS-EN shows up under the PROG section.

The reason I was so confused at first was because VOPM has the OP values in a different order. So this isn't really a fix, but if you've got a lot of time, here's a horrible way to use your OPM files with VOPM.

and prosounding it won't make it louder for when you're writing on the go, it'll make it quieter.

In the event you're not being sarcastic (ha) and me not being a dick (HA) I meant a cd without cover fwiw.

no it's like in movies or tv when you see a gold record in a frame, but way smaller and not gold and I JUST THREW OUT A THOUSAND OF THEM CAUSE I'M AN IDIOT

So for whatever reason, when I use VOPM for OSX in Ableton, the import button doesn't do anything. The load preset button in Ableton only accepts .fxb files. In Renoise, the import window shows up, but it either doesn't change any of the values in VOPM once an OPM is loaded, or it just crashes. Anyone have any luck with this?

cheap low quality vinyl usually means lathe cut, which means it'll basically be un-listenable once you listen to it 5-10 times.

i'll keep that in mind.  i was once told that's how "dub plates" are.  the dub plate the guy had was a chunk of material. 

i was hoping for maybe thin vinyl or even low quality sound.  by low quality i mean you wouldn't want to listen to it loud at a club but would be fun for at home.

dub plate is basically another term for lathe cut. they're actually designed to be played out in a club just to see how the crowd reacts to a single before they do a major pressing of it.

cheap low quality vinyl usually means lathe cut, which means it'll basically be un-listenable once you listen to it 5-10 times.

i put it in a fucking messenger bag with the rest of my shit jesus christ

i don't know much about this specific one, but a lot of companies seemed to do this kind of thing when they were being made. i've got a yellow tommy hilfiger GBC. from what I can tell companies would just put their logos on them and use them for giveaways.

yeah TFM was first. i didn't really hear anything about it being discontinued, but maybe he just decided it's as good as it's going to get?
