^ hahah too true.

Ive been working on tracks for hours. over and over. In the end have to turn if off. Gets annoying.

Listen to it 3 days later and it sounds completely diff. Strange

  • 2 weeks later...

o man.

Best sound. best music. best crowd.

I thought all the DJs before reso were really good.

Then Reso came on, he was honestly a f**kin machine. cutting thru songs with technical difficulty , . making it all look easy.

big big night. Sunday I wasnt feeling the best. But it was worth it.

Long set too. Should get it soon of Jayar who runs the dubstep shows on thursday nights. Ill send it if he has it

Best sound. best music. best crowd.

that's what its all about!!!

That's one big reason why I stopped going to clubs as regularly as i used to. Shit music, wanker crowds, and sound systems that sound like something put together by a 16 year old bedroom dj...

Crown and sceptre really looks on the up & up with these weekender events. The RESO gig was very well promoted imo.

That'd be awesome if you get your hands on that set too :)

Nice mate. would sound sweet on a big system.

My DJM came today. cant stop playin with it. sore back and all.

nice effects on the 400. Basically a smaller version of the 800.

Really impressed. Great quality.

I'm jealous mate, they are awesome mixers!

I just started having a play around with fruity loops tonight, awesome application hey!

Have you still got any tracks posted up Craig? I remember you posting a couple up that you made somewhere...

hey mate. heres my Myspace music page

http://www.myspace.com/preisswork

some oldish tunes on there.

Theres a trance song. and a couple other diff sorta sounding tunes

Now that I have the mixer Im gonna do a mix of my tunes. add some effects etc.

Let ya know when its done. :)

Edited by PREISS

that'll be gold!

I like the Jungle Neck track a lot, its very tripped out...

im working my way through learning some of the basic fruityloops functions. I've played around with it a little each night, started building a track last night. Building a basic electro house track. Keeping it very simple. Will post up a clip when its progressed a little more.

I really cant stand electro house, but a lot of the sounds and samples I've come across in FL belong to the genre...

yeah I know what your saying mate. If your a memeber of demonoid you can find some packs that work with fruity loops.

You can buy packs with great sounds too.

Fruity loops is great. been using it for years. but smoe of the stock sounds lack and you need to tweak alot.

yeah I'm going to definitely look into getting more sounds & packs. These ones are pretty damn ordinary like you say!

A guy I know was supposed to send me an invite me to join demonoid - still waiting for it... prick

I've wanted to make tunes for a long time now, finally starting. So many ideas!!!!!

FL is a good starting point imo. A mate of mine gave me Cubase SX3, but it lacks a little without some good VSTs

Did you get cubase working ? wouldnt mind having a look myself. I had a cracked copy that didnt work

You should look into sony soundforge too. Great for tweaking etc once your track is recorded.

If your mate cant get you the invite to demonoid let me know . I may have some invited left :banana:

lol, cheers mate!

yep, it definitely works.

(its cracked)

It came with the very basic VSTs (like A1 Synth - which is quite cool), but hardly any samples.

Actually came as a bundle with Nuendo and Steinberg Wavelab too. They all work as far as I've seen. Pretty sure I kept a copy on my ext HD - it's at work, so ill get back to you

Nice Steve!

i want to look at modifying sounds & making my own, but theres a lot to learn from a newbie point of view. That'll be far down the track i reckon

A good drum sampling/sequence kit would be cool. Something like Native Instruments - Battery 3.

Im happy mucking around with FL at the moment though, very cool app

cool cool.

yeah ill deff grab that stuff of ya. Let me know when its up and running.

Dont underestimate FL studio. Its pretty classy, just gotta tweak alot. Did you know SPOR produces with FL studio ? I was pretty amazed myself, as his sounds are so techy and all over the shop. Ofcourse he would have midi sounds hooked up etc etc.

Nice Steve!

I'm not much into FL, can't really get into it. Battery is cool though, got some battery kits on a drive somewhere but at the moment my fav is Addictive Drums which is a standalone program or VSTi. Other cool drum programs are Toontrack DKFH and FXpansion's BFD

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
