    I play the trumpet, dabble with the ukulele, and sing choral stuff. When's stuff happening?

    I can play the Flute quite well.
    But, similar to Luprony, I don't have anything to record or send MIDI files or anything.
    /broke
    I can also sing, but I don't know if you guys want a semi-high-pitched guy singing in there.

    I play clarinet and guitar, but I don't know how to record or do anything like that...

    Besides, my clarinet was stolen last year and my skills on my guitar (classical) are negligible....sorry...

    You should hear my singing; I used to sing quite well (And I still do) but my voice cracks occasionally.
    :sigh:

    Some F'in kid at school. He broke into where The instruments are kept and he took mine...or she, I don't even know...

    I was pissed. I was always the first chair player and it was because my clarinet was so good. I had to make due with a crappy one that the school owned

    The first option looks good, but the server is only for windows, so that may or may not be a problem if we have any non-windows using members.

    The second option might be fine, but I couldn't figure out how to use it... hopefully someone else can understand it?

    With the third option, it looks like you can only have 3 contributors to the server (so only 3 people would be allowed to use it) before having to upgrade to a premium version.

    As far as I can tell they all look trustworthy, and Norton Security didn't pick up any security threats when downloading any of the softwares.

    That's... That's just ridiculous. Did the school at least try to do anything about it?

    Meletric Thank you ! We're going to have to look into that second option then! Maybe Pulse Wave will know how to work with it.

    Don't worry about that. FTP is nothing proprietary, it's a standardised online protocol like HTTP (Web), POP, SMTP or IMAP (mail), so servers and clients of all kinds are required to be fully interoperable. By the way, FileZilla is a great free cross-platform client, I use the Linux version for all my FTP purposes.

    I don't think anything's fully assembled yet, but you'll need to talk to TenorTrouble for that...
    Just that, nopony seems to check out more than the general chat and forum games section out of habit.. including me.
    Well, this should revive this again somewhat... :grin:

    Mmmm... I'd like to know, the electric guitar part of this, must be a distortion or an overdrive one?

    A percussionist! Just who we needed!


    We've been having some issues on how to upload our files and I am finally sick of it! I say we use Audacity and ANY download site like megaupload where we an store the files. From there, we can download and and record with the rest of the orchestra. I say we use audacity because it is a small and easy program to use and you can have multiple layers of recordings.

    The standard for recording will be ten seconds after you hit the record button, you start playing. The ten seconds gives us some space to synch the files if they aren't all in the right spot. Another thing we can do to increase the quality of the sound is to have two to four recordings of each part with each submission. That way if one trial isn't up to snuff it can get thrown out by a main editor.

    Any questions or objections?

    1)Would built in computer microphone work for recording (my best microphone died a few months ago)? 2)Will I be playing any synth?

    Answer 1) it will work for now. At the moment, all we're looking for is to get at least one song out.

    Answer 2) Yes. I don't think it's written into the first score, but it can be written into the next ones.
