Re: 20th anniversaries of folks who joined in 2003

Yes. As are you!

If this list is correct, 2003 was a fucking magical year for Songfight.

This list is also a little sad with at least a couple of friends who aren't with us any longer on it.

Re: Rest In Peace

Hi All, It pains me to let you know that my good friend, collaborator, and all around best person Wayne "Evil-E" Gamble died suddenly and unexpectedly from a stroke the week before Xmas. Wayne mostly submitted on his own as Evil-E and as part of the Seamus Collective. I don't know what to ...

Re: Song Fight! Live IRL 2023

Thanks for kicking this off Lunkhead! I think it would be great to keep an online aspect as well, so maybe as a two night event, one could be an in person show and then next night could be a streaming/ view party? Any thoughts on ways to make the live fight hybrid? Could there be a way to alternate ...

I just share my entire Logic projects with Toshiro and Crumpet. Let them see my substantial warts and farts.

We use some point-to-point sync tool rather than anything g cloudy. Dunno why.
This is really nice if everyone is using the same version of the same DAW.

Re: Online collaboration technologies

Also it's a good idea to include the click and/or placeholder drums in the demo track. I disagree with at least part of this. As a drummer, the last thing I want to track to is some other drum track. I agree that you should include at least a stable click intro that can be used to line up your file...

Re: Deals On Gear and Software

Here's a place that makes condenser microphones inside of spent shotgun shells. Great for tight spots. I have an x/y I've used as a drum overhead, yet to try on acoustic guitar, but quite pleased with it. Just ordered a single to try on snare/guitar. Inexpensive and handmade in good old Vermont. Yo...

Re: New Video Camera

I bought a used Zoom Q8 and have been happy with it so far.

I don't know anything about color correction. Maybe that could be another thread?

Re: New Video Camera

Thanks for the advice all. I'm starting to feel the pull towards a Zoom Q8, Q8-N, or Q2N. I've considered the Rebel, but I start to worry about having to learn too many features that I just won't have the patience for.

Have I mentioned how much I miss my Flip Video?

New Video Camera

Hi All, I'm starting to think about making videos for the upcoming Songfight Live Online and looking into new video cameras. It seems like every year I'm bouncing between cameras, cell phones, and whatever I've amassed over the years to find an easy way to film myself. I've done a bit of research an...

We used a Google form to have folks submit their videos and info last year. I thought that worked well. If you pm me a Gmail email I can share it with you so you can reuse it if you'd like.
