The Mix Competition - Take II - Page 26

i don't think quality really matters here. I mean, if it's an insignificant loss, i wouldn't worry about it. However if you hear cracks/pops and major distortions, you're probably in trouble. It's not about the quality of the sound, it's about the skills and the selection.

So basically I need a good mp3-editing program. Now i've already downloaded and tried about 10 programs off of download.com , and they all either 1.suck or 2. can't handle a big 30 minute mix. So now I'm looking for tried and tested programs that I know will work, so i don't have to waste anymore time.

THanks guys!

try Audacity

I have to re-record my mix. File was corrupted when my ****ING HARD DRIVE LOCKED UP LAST WEEK. Don't know if I'll get 'er done before the deadline, busy week.

whothafunkk · Apr 13th, 2006, 10:23 PM

oh and i want to erase all the swearing i did?! please!
i have suppressed rage issues, especially about spinning.
some chicas who like to spin get no credit.
and people like to judge me by my appearance and not my sound.
we'll see about that
wtf

That's why we do it by number instead... Becuase everyone KNOWS that if we were getting votes by our looks. Well, I'd be the winner hands down.......

It's getting down to the wire folks... Hope everyone's getting their sets done, I'm HOPING for 100% of the entries (I'll be satisfied with 65-75% though).

I really wish people weren't like that WTF but unfortunately we live in a man's world, run my men who think with their other heads which is why women who are DJs have to look like porn stars to get the fame. However, I'd rather see a chick with baggy jeans and a hoodie rockin the ones and twos, bringing me the hottest tracks, leaving the party thinking that was the hottest music I'd heard in awhile and having nothing to do with how she looks. I've always been curious about hearing the beats you rock because I bet your style is pretty phat.

Mine's ready, I just want to play it in my car once first before I upload it.

Man this competition is gonna be so hype I can't wait! But I'm writing exams all next week so I won't be able to listen to the other mixes until 2 weeks from now.

That sounds heavenly man. I might purchase a bottle of spice rum for myself on Monday afternoon myself because I have Tuesday off so it will be the perfect day to kick back and listen to everyone's mixes in their entirety and whatever I don't finish on Monday, I can hear on Tuesday.

Dogfax · Apr 14th, 2006, 04:45 AM

Good point.. better not get too into that rum cos I gotta work on tuesday. ......Sod it! Ill just go with a hangover! My boss will understand.. lol!
