Alrighty. It'll be no trouble to shorten it if you find that you can't make the minute =3

So same deal as last time, constructive crit is welcome, but please don't tell me you hate it o.o Paranoid enough as it is here. This is still just a beta, and it's compressed so it's a tid bit buzzier than it should be. And still in beta-stage, some tracks have to be tweaked more here and there.

But I think this'll be the general order the tracks will be in. I hope there's no problems. Otherwise, enjoy~ and let me know what everybody thinks!


The mix sounds great to me, you did a good job. Also I like all the songs used for it. After your tweaking it will be great, I think.

But I have a request to you: Maybe you can cut some seconds (10-15 or sth. like that) from the beginning of my track (starts 13:04), so that the slow part of the song is not repeated that often and it would be easier for me to edit. But only if it's not too hard work for you.

Project FMV Beta Mix: Complete(ish)


In particular, I'm not sure I like how IcyCloud's track starts, and AMV4000's song is being difficult too . . . so there's a bit more tweaking to be done.


oh yeah, blame MY song lol. atleast you dont have to put that first one i sent you in there... that woulda been a lot harder... as for the one i picked... i know the lyrics would get in the way, sorry bout that.. but im downloading it right now...

Hm... so the track mix is about fifteen and a half minutes, and the full mix with the outro will be around eighteen minutes then? Alrighty. That's pretty good. It's on the upper range of how long I wanted the project to be, but there are so many great editors on board that I couldn't imagine dropping anyone.

As far as the mix goes, it sounds pretty sweet. sayde's track sounds really good entering this time, but it's still a bit weird on exit. Although, I'm not entirely sure what you can do about that, Take. I love that track, but sheesh, it has a strange ending on it. The only other place I could think of for it would be the end, and then I don't know what you'd do with "Switchback."

The song at 10:50 is probably the only one that I don't think fits into the mix well. It's just the style of the song. However, as was said earlier by another person, I'm willing to brave one "meh" song if it means that we'll have good editing on all of the tracks - and more importantly, music that everyone wants to edit to.

The final verdict? I like it. Feel free to make a few more tweaks if you feel you need to, Take. Meanwhile, I hope that everyone will download the mix and get a feel for what the project will sound like.

We're gettin' close, folks. Hope you have your concepts all laid out, or even part of a beta track edited. The deadline seems far off, but it'll creep up on you before you know it. :P

PS: that whole post felt disjointed somehow... or is it just me? o_O

Finnally heard the mix :)

It´s awsome....just one thing that bothered me..
The transition at 12:21 is really a hard cut....i don´t like that...
maybe you could switch places with the two following songs, then the slow song will actually fade into the slow part of the Jester`s Dance....maybe you give it a try....
But if it´s too difficult to change i might accustom to the transition.....

Hmmm .dat files aren´t there any .asf????

My suggestion would be
Try this one on the .dat or if you have .asf on them FMV Extractor

Hmm, you could also use Zone of the Enders.... :roll: ....

Hey, just letting you guys know that I'll be on Spring Break next week (starting tomorrow afternoon), and I likely won't be back 'til the evening on March 18th. This means that I'll be somewhat without a computer for that time. I'll try to check in once a day, but if someone posts something, don't panic when I don't respond right away.

See you. <3

*whimper*

Alrighty, so Oropher, if you're using a new song, I need it right away please ^.^;; I'm hoping I'll be able to put it in the same position as your first choice, because *WAIL* I really don't wanna re-do the thing again. And I really wanna get started on my track =\

The mix is in what I'm hoping is final stages of tweaking, and I'll do my best to have a final mix up by this weekend, providing Oropher gives me his new track or sticks with the old one.

Also, the Take had a semi panic attack during class the other day when external hard drive showed up blank for 5 minutes. So I was wondering, because I'm in total *shriek* mode, if someone else out there would mind if I sent you a RAR/ZIP of the track songs, just in case my drive goes KABOOM and I lose everything o.o It's always a good idea to have a backup, anyways.

I'm really hoping it doesn't die on me ;_; All my DoC clips are on it, if it dies then I have to drop out. *goes back to crying*

Just upload a rar/zip file somewhere of all the track songs and post the link here. That way multiple people can have it as back-up just in case. btw, if worse comes to worse, I've got ripped DoC footage I can share w/ you if you need it.
