Morning Discussion
by Chris Faylor, Dec 18, 2008 4:30am PSTA week until Christmas. Like, seven days. That's just crazy! And no, I haven't started my shopping yet, and I obviously haven't learned from the mistakes of years past. Pfft.
But I tell you, the really exciting part is that I'm finally going to sit down and play through Fallout 3. I've been holding off for a time when I could just immerse myself in the game and do nothing but play it for a few days, and after all the praise I've been hearing from industry folk and friends alike, I have to say, I'm rather psyched.

I finally compiled and released my entire album. Recently I have posted several links to my acidplanet pages and from the response I decided I should release it.
http://www.filedropper.com/djphildo-goingin
16 Songs (5 new, never released on acidplanet)
113 Megs
2.5+ Years of work
Songs are in chronological order of when I made them, so it should be easy to hear how the mastering gets better as you go on. However thats not the rule, I have remastered several of my earlier songs about a year ago with some new techniques that I learned as I went on.
They were all made in fruity loops, almost everything from scratch by me. If you download it, please send me a message letting me know how you found it. Even if you didnt like it, response and feedback is the only reward I get for this. And it IS a great reward. So dont be shy!
Download a copy, give it to your mother and your dog. Give it a listen, and I hope you enjoy it.
Thanks Shackers!

Something that’s always driven me crazy
When setting up an HP or a Dell with Windows XP, and you’re using sata drives, you need to get the right drivers from the manufacturers website, press F6 to load said driver and then install windows. If you don’t you’ll end up blue screening.
The problem I always run into is there’s a billion different drivers and I can never tell which one I’m supposed to use (This mainly happens with Intel). So I end up going through 10 of the wrong ones and finally find the right one.
IS there an easier way to determine which one to use?
I’m having a hell of a time trying to get XP 64 installed on a HP XW8600 workstation. I just keep blue screening right when I go to install Windows because it needs the right driver during F6
Any ideas?

She said she loved it, its like Forest Gump, and that most of the other people she was with didn’t like it.
So I guess I have no info for you guys other then my wife has what I think is pretty good taste, but then again she watches The Hills and left the room during Sunshine because she got scared.
She did say that she was on the verge of tears for a lot of it.

I have an idea for a small desktop app that is sorta like itunes. Its similar in the sense where its a desktop app, but it pulls info from the internet when online, but theres functions for being offline as well. (It has nothing to do with music tho - thats its only similarity)
The problem is I only know PHP and JS. I'm not really a programmer, but this is something I'd like to toy with - what progamming language should I look at doing this with? I'm currently thinking of doing it in Air and using mostly JS since its cross platform.

Okay, I just want to confirm a few things with Obj-C... it doesn't look too difficult now that I'm reading more about it and not just trying to jump into it... but i want to make sure on a few things;
@implementation LotteryEntry
LotteryEntry is the class, and everything regarding this class has to go between @implementation and @end, yeah?
- (id)init <- this is like your basic constructor? why the - and +'s?
- (id)initWithEntryDate:(NSCalendarDate *)theDate <- what if I had this, but needed one more thing to pass to the method... IE: Date and an int for some reason. Would it be :(NSCalendarDate *)theDate :(int) number?

So I haven't been produced any sort of music for like 8 years. I used to have a mini studio with a Nord Lead, Prophecy, Akai S5000 Sampler and Midi controller and cubase and everything like 10 years ago. Sold it all to pay rent for university :( sucks I know. I just downloaded Fruity Loops demo cause I decided I want to get back into hobby of making some tunes.
Question #1: So I have a pattern that I've created with the Piano Roll and I've painted it out. How the hell do I now throw some automation and create a volumetric envelope *only* on the first pattern so it kind of "fades-in" ?
HAAAAALp!
