i would do vocals but i know nothing about technology lol... would i be able to record vocals thru my built in mic on my mac, or would that sound shitty? if it'll sound shitty then i'll pass, i'd wanna do your cover justice, seeing as that instrumental snippet sounds so cool!

if you get close enough to the mic it'll sound alright but a bit tinny. used that for a while before buying a mic. your choice, though!

i sent meysell my vocal track, and once his cover is done (it sounds like it is 95% there) then there are no more pending covers so there's no reason not to send everything!

yeah, i got vocal tracks from dud and hybrination, think another set is coming in so we'll have two or three vox to choose from because they're all too good to throw out. should have them up tomorrow. we're done folks!

nah i thought my mic would be alright but there's some weird corruptions going in in it. doubt i'll fix it in time, you carry on with the other vox

Cool yeah you did a great job with the instrumental! Maybe you could just overlay our vocals or something else creative with it so it's only one version. Your call though.

Use all the vocals at once! That would be cool.

ooo yeah meysell, you could either use both vocals at once, or you could have the first section be one of us and the second section be the other, since the vocal part repeats! that'd be cool too

or quickly alternate between vocals and get a boys latin-esque effect going

wow that's great, i love the slight updates you made to the instrumental. i also love what you did in the second half when u brought in dud's vocals for harmonies! sounds great! lol i kinda wish u had more of dud throughout the first part to mask my screw ups. maybe im just rly harsh on my own vocals tho. but this is ur baby, and im honored to simply have taken part in it, awesome job all around.

now how do we send this all to sonic, i'm guessing he needs the original files not just the soundcloud links, right?
Re: CAVSGR (CA Does PB Vs. The GR)

by meys
yeah, he'll need some lossless files - i guess we just wait on his word now?
Re: CAVSGR (CA Does PB Vs. The GR)
Posted: Sat Dec 06, 2014 8:53 pm
by hybrination
yeah i guess best thing would be to collect them into one file and send him that, but with lossless files that will be huge, dunno the best course of action here?
Re: CAVSGR (CA Does PB Vs. The GR)

can a CA google drive account hold all of the lossless files?
Re: CAVSGR (CA Does PB Vs. The GR)

by snowtire
yeah i'd think so. I think they give you 10 gigs for free. or everyone could send their wavs to whoever is organizing this (looks like dud?) and they could zip em up and just put em up on mediafire and send that to sb?

1. i know nothing about this kind of stuff, so i definitely want someone else to take over at this point, i just compiled that list
2. i feel like not that many people check this thread anymore (including people that have contributed), so maybe we could get a mod/admin or whoever on board to make a stickied post at the top of the forum that says 'if you submitted a cover for CAVSGR, send your loseless file to ______ by (date)!' and then that person can send the stuff he receives to sonic in one big folder

we could make a shared Dropbox folder and make it kind of a submission box - seems easy enough!
