Aegis Fang Posted March 11, 2006 Posted March 11, 2006 so would it be illegal for someone to send me the files for a music writing program that's NOT a demo? Quote

When I set up the folders, I messed up. From now on, the upload folder will be under the web folder instead of on the main page. Login to FTP --> Web --> MusicDrill --> Drag your file there Now you can access your files by adding the prefix "http://upload.txbands.com/musicdrill/*filename.wav*" Note: I changed the capitalization to all lower caps. Our web addresses are case sensitive! Quote
Dynasty Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 Ryan, I went ahead and moved your file: http://upload.txbands.com/musicdrill/ryan.wav Quote
Fortisimo Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 Ok, I've uploaded my entry, entitled "Experimentation". It's at http://upload.txbands.com/musicdrill/Experimentation.wav It's 1:59 long. It's not a band/orchestral piece, although there is some classical instrumentation in there. It's a hybrid of modern sythetic pieces and classical styles. It's fairly simple, but I like it alright, at least for an experimenting piece. I personally feel it should be played at at least a fairly high volume and it is imperative you listen to it on pretty good speakers (as in, not ones that came with your computer in the box, lol). Well, enjoy. Quote
BigRyRy2026 Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 alright that techno dealy is fly as heck, my vote goes for you Quote
Fortisimo Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 Thanks, but I really liked your piece as well. It showed some very impressive compositional abilites. Quote
thesnareguy Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 I am working on it. I have a different idea, of writing i guess. I'll post it when im finished. FL Studio 5 Producer's Edition is awesome. Quote
Fortisimo Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Lol, no doubt. That's where I wrote my entry. Quote
mnkyman Posted March 16, 2006 Author Posted March 16, 2006 dont forget you have about 32 hours to post your entry Quote
thesnareguy Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 Almost done... I still need to learn all the capabilities of FL...Good stuff... Quote
Fortisimo Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 Definitely; and you can add even more stuff with new 1st and 3rd party VSTi or DXI generators and effects. There's pretty much always mor you can do. I've been using the software for 2 and a half years and I still find new capabilities occassionally. It's amazing, really. Quote
thesnareguy Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 Finally finished. My song is called "Refulgent Stars". It is a...a...I dont know. wow. I dont even know what kind of song this is. I just wrote it. O! Its some sort of slow Electronica song. There. Heres the link. Refulgent Stars 1:48 (Might want to use REAL speakers...hehe) Quote
