resincum wrote:hello senseis. D.o.S. and I were kicking around this idea for a while, there's definitely a load of us around here doing this kind of thing, so let's get some kind of collective drone circle jerk going?! If this takes off, I'd really like to press some cds with packaging and stuff.. after production costs are met (basically cost of cds) the rest can be donated to ILF. w00t??

rules: no rules. no time restrictions, 30 minute fart drones welcome.

submissions: email resincum@gmail.com with ILF DRONE COMP or something like that as the subject. include your forum handle, the name you want on the track list and title. also, please send it as a .WAV
***if everyone submits a stereo .WAV recording with a -2 to -3dB peak it will make our lives much easier for mastering purposes***
if you can match your file name with your forum handle that would be rad :D
Ancient Astronaught wrote: The easiest way is to put a limiter plug in on your master track in your daw and set the thresh hold to -3db, then you reduce the input gain or the track volumes until you see it never or just every once in a while bounce off of it. If you reduced track volumes then you can remove the limiter plug in and be good to go, if you use the input gain in the plug in to reduce volume than leave it there but raise the threshold up to -2db without touching anything else. That way even if it peaks over a lil its not detrimental, and who ever is mastering will have tons of headroom.

If your using your phone theres no help for you unfortunately and we'll do the best we can with it.
^^^TIPS FROM THE MASTERING SENSEI^^^
I'd like to wrap things up in about a month from now.. if that's too soon, let me know!

I probably have enough stuff I could cut together into an entry, but I'm not sure which way it's going. I've been recording all my drone jams in one project to see what sticks, so there's twinkly tuneful stuff and synth bass and sludge guitars.... It's pretty funny right now listening to all the tracks at once, maybe it can be made into a proper song.

Shit. I feel like I'm slacking. But with this nasty ear infection that I've got, blasting drones at my eardrums isn't exactly something I feel like doing.

Did we have any restrictions or limitations or must use gear or is it all out drone with your bone out??? Also are Crystals allowed, do we have to tune to 432hz and amp worship whilst we work on it in the dark under a full Moon sitting cross legged in a pentagram drawn in unicorn blood???

I would be down for all of this if the lunar calendar didn't put the full moon after the deadline (2nd June, there is one on the 4th of May, but, that's way too close).

It's illegal to sacrifice unicorns AND I am serious about it.

nah man no limitations at all, crystals or pedals or synths or computers or flutes carved out of unicorn bones it's all fair game
needa get on that 90khz batdrone though, you're missing out if you're sticking in regular ol' human hearing range...
