Friday, I recorded a killer track live from my synth. This thing was awesome; one of my favorite tracks. It had harmony, rhythm, melody, counter melody, and it was just really something special. I recorded this to casette tape. Tonight, i was recording from the casette tape to disk to turn in to mp3. i decided to rewind in my main stereo 'cause it's faster. Instead of rewind, I punched record--ruined about 5 or 6 seconds in the middle of my song. So I'm pissed about that. Very pissed indeed. I recorded the same song on Saturday, but it didn't turn out quite as well. The original was fantastic. It's got this gap in at about 45 seconds. Really a big bummer. It was the first track Lindsey liked :( and I really don't know if I can rerecord it as well as I did last time. So,yah, one of my best tracks down the tubes 'cause i hit the wrong button. >8( |

Prepare yourself for even larger dissapointments. It comes with the turf. I've lost hours upon hours of material through unfortunate data losses. It build character, think of it that way. Just think of it as a sacrafice to the cosmic oneness that put the music in your fingers in the first place. |

part of me thinks I should skip school tomorrow and start a new tape... i can pound my track out every ten minutes. it's 5:30 minutes long--i'd review after each recording and then if not satisfactory, start all over. that would be awesome. :) I really only have to be there for two classes... the question is how to get out of it! |

Yah, man, thanks for the vote of confidence. ;) I've lost other tracks before, but in retrospect, I don't miss them because I've gotten much better tracks out recently than then. but there's an emotional thing about losing some old stuff. I suppose this version could be edited... I could merge it awkwardly before and after the gap :) |

i hate losing tracks..... one of the best ones ive ever made, just a synth melody part, it was amazing, very radiohead-ish if i do say so myself, and the sound itself + the actual arrangement was just perfect.... ..decided to save it before i converted it to mp3 (in fruityloops) and didn't realize that when it saved my file, it deleted the synth part because i was using a demo version of that synth plug in..... ...i recreated the part and its found its way into another track of mine, its good, but not nearly as good as the original... i was quite upset i guess it comes with the territory... |

it happens to the best of us i once lost over 300 finished/unfinished tracks when my computer crashed like 2 years ago |

Yah--it's definitely frustrating. if APhex really lost that mp3 player, he must be really upset. |

Dont you dare skip school, Luke! >8( |

if you can get the money together, it'd be an idea to get a hard disk recorder? maybe? dunno how much they cost though |
||||||||
|

|
|
Im sorry about what happened, Luke, but I want to be at school with you! Youre talented and persistent and you can get it right again--I know it! Stop staying up so late; get some sleep! Let your brain rest! I love you! |

god dammit! I told you guys NOT to use tapes...only use HD-recording... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmm..you say you lost about 5 or 6 seconds worth... how about converting what you got as you got it to a WAV file..and then touching up..editing..cutting and pasting..patching up those six seconds with existing stuff.. dunno..worth a shot.. |
||||||||
|

that's a really good idea!!!! might take a bit of patience, and it won't sound EXACTLY the same as it was originally, but you can get it pretty damn fucking close great idea flea :) |

man, i was just recording a big mix on my turntables with the most crzy shit. like mogwai and joey beltram and cex and bits from bushwacked and then "BLAM" right in the middle of "Ryan Kidwells funeral, a CD falls on top of the record thats playing and skips the needle right off the record. damnit, i was having fun.... |

awww fuck no thats goddamned fucking annoying! |

That IS a good idea. :) Luke--You can do that while Im at the allergist getting shots after school. But plase come to school! You need to be there for statistics and computer animation (we are getting through After Effects together!), and you know you want to be there for english to do those stupid bio poems! ;) For "Who wants to see..." you can put, "the missing six seconds of my song reappear magically!" as one of them. ;) I will make sure your day is great! I promise you! :) |

Thanks for the tips/cosolation, everyone. :D I'll try redoing it, and if I can't get it, some shotty wave editing will have to do ;) I bet if I put a sample over the combining point, it would sound like the song wasn't hacked in two :D |
||||||||

I bet if you go to bed early, too, you will clear your mind and can prevent things like this from happening. ;) *hugs you* |

Lets go to school! :D Besides, you have to get that info on your parking space to sell to Trent for twenty bucks! ;) Woo hoo! ^_~ |

heheh i'm sorry spookyluke, but your beloved is right |
||||||||

She always is :) |

my beloved is always right i'm always fretting about my mom possibly not letting her come up to stay, and she's always telling me "i've got a feeling, calm down, it'll be okay, i will be able to come down" she's right every time |

better you recorded the midi events while playing, you could play it everytime, adding some new things while the synth played the events :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that would have been a good idea too :) |
||||||||

just put some weird effect in the gap of silence boyeeeeeeeeeeeeee |
||||||||
|
|

|

heh,.. yyeah. I'm sorry but this couple just has to stop. the beauty of things like aim is that the public doesnt have to cringe collectively when a conversation like this is exhibited to the entire internet. think about it, sweeetie. <3 |

*raise eyebrow* If Luke and I both happen to post to this board, it is perfectly appropriate for me to reply to his posts and give him advice or support. There is nothing wrong with that. |

Sorry to hear that mate. I lost my best "commercial" track a few years back. It was the only thing I've done that I could actually see them playing in clubs etc. Flea's suggestion may well work, give it a go. |
