For all us creators: any interest in a fun creative "challenge?"

[Rarebird]

Sure! Why not

Also...in case it would be of interest/value to folks (both those participating but folks in general): 1010 Music is having some sort of sweepstakes contest and are offering a free sample pack of Halloween sounds: https://1010music.com/contest2024

I'm not entering the contest but I was happy to download the samples

I can't even enter the contest.

Can't contribute because I'm not a musician, but am following this to see what you folks come up with.

It should be a hoot!

Bumping this thread so we keep Mr. Hind's "Results" thread fairly clean

Looking forward to hearing everyone's stuff next week!! For me, I'm 99% done with the music and about to pivot to the REALLY hard stuff: the title for the song, and what art I'll use for the video still

I have two of three tracks recorded. I have some composing to do for the final track, the bass part, then I have to either mix it myself or take it to my friend who has a studio to do a quick mix.

Sure...how about 10/28 so those with day jobs have one full weekend to wrap things further?

I may not make this deadline, but I should be able to have something done by 10/30.

Don't let it shock you but...it's a pretty soft deadline Looking forward to hearing it when it's ready!

Cool. I'm making progress. I'm working out a lot of harmonies in the bass part, and that's slow going for me. I'm happy with what I have, though, so it shouldn't be too much longer.

All righty...quickie hack job of a master done...Ozone 11's "helper" kept trying to brickwall the damn thing to oblivion It's better now, clear enough and listenable. So, I'm calling that a wrap and starting on the art! Oh and some fun notes per Pat's suggestion

I have no idea how to master a track myself, but I like this service. http://www.waves.com for a decent and somewhat adjustable quick master. One day I will attempt to learn the art of mastering though. Looking forward to hearing more from everyone.

I have Ozone from some sale many moons ago, and it is certainly a very capable tool....in the hands of someone with vastly better ears than mine though Many times I simply go with a preset or use their wizards, and then just look for the enhancements I DON'T want...mainly I don't want a brick wall. So if I see too much limiting in the final stages I push the levels down until only the absolute sporadic peaks just tip over the threshold.
