Singing event! The official thread! - GM-Boomy - 04-12-2006

Welcome! This is a little event that does not require any RO playing, so there won't be any "advantage" for anyone Icon_lol

This event will end May 31st 2006 at 11h59pm.

All you need is a song, a microphone, a little program called Audacity (it's free) and your nice or not so nice voice Icon_biggrin

You'll have to choose a song, post the song chosen here then sing over it while you record it. I'm gonna show you how to do this, it's really simple.

1- choose a song then post it here. You can't choose a song that was already took by someone (except if it's a remix and the song doesn't sound like the exact same thing as the original). You'll need the mp3/wav file fo the song.

2- Download Audacity from there: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/ and choose the more recent stable version (you can use the beta version if you want, it's up to you) and install it. Also you'll need this dll file to save in mp3: http://www.yourfilelink.com/get.php?fid=76285 (save it where you want, but remember where, we'll need it later).

3- Open Audacity. You'll have this window when you open it:

4- At the top of the window, under the play/stop/etc. buttons, you'll see 2 sliders. Be sure that the 2nd one is near the end (if your voice sounds distorted when you'll record yourself, lower it a little.). Then in the dropdown menu just after those 2 sliders, choose Microphone.

5- Now press Control+P (ctrl-p) to open the preference. in the Audio I/O section, in the Recording rectangle, choose the channel dropdown menu and select 2 (Stereo). Also, check the Play other tracks while recording new one then press ok.

6- Click on the Project menu, then Import Audio. Choose your mp3/wav file. This is your "song" track, the actual song who will play in the background.

7- Now you're all set to record yourself! When you'll press the record button, the song will start and a new track is created to record your voice.

8- When you're done, on the left side of each track, you'll see 2 sliders on each track. The one we need to modify is the first one of each track. On the "song" track, put the slider at -3 dB (you'll see the value when you'll click on the slider). For the "voice" track, it all depends on how loud you sang. but you should always put a positive value on this track to make your voice louder than the music. In my example, my voice track has a +6 dB value.

8b- You can try to add some effects on your voicetrack and the voice track only to make something original, but it's up to you, this s not mandatory and it's just for fun.

9- We're ready to export our file! Click on the File menu, then export as MP3...

You'll have a warning telling you that your tracks will be mixed down to a single stereo one, click OK it' prefectly normal. Your filename should have the following template:

Quote:Your forum nick (the original song name - the original artist).mp3

So mine would be:

Quote:GM-Boomy (I hate - Three days grace).mp3

Audacity will ask you to locate the lame_enc.dll file (remember the file in step 2?). Click yes then go where you saved the file. Your song is now exported in mp3!

10- Upload your mp3 there (you can zip it if you want): http://www.yourfilelink.com/ and send me the upload link by email at: boomy [Image: atsymbol0qk.gif]

hero-server.net (the @ is an image, be sure to write it yourself).

You can make as many songs as you like, you won't have more prize tho, but that's up to you Icon_wink

.

Here's my "soso" exemple of myself singing "I hate (everything about you) - Three days grace". Have fun!

P.S. The prize for each participant (read carefully, participant, not entry Icon_razz

) will be 1 obb, 1 gift box and a mysterious prize (you'll love it Icon_biggrin

)!
