Out of interest, what software do you use for generating audio from images? I'd like to try this out myself some time.

I used the Import > Raw Data... function in Audacity and then tried the different data interpreters until I got some interesting waveforms and not just digital pink noise from start to finish.

I think you can use jitter for stuff like that too

Aaah, clever! I'm definitely going to try that. I use Audacity all the time but never even knew it was capable of this. Great piece of software.

Cheers Charic, I've never heard of Jitter but will check it out.

Ah on a quick search it seems that jitter might go the other way...

Wow. Super smooth tone and great playing - I wish I had your skills! I like how it builds momentum from start to finish; very natural and the change around 2 minutes is great. Mix sounds fine on my headphones.[/quote]

Thanks mate, enjoyed doing this, Looking forward to seeing the next picture and giving it another bash!

Nice work Mornats! You've got a good tone on your bass and I love the chords that kick in around 1:25 (my favourite melody in the whole track - really nice). The drums are solid too, they almost sound as though played live (maybe they were?).

The mix itself sounds good through my headphones; well balanced and nicely produced.

Cheers mate This is the result of my first bass lesson (new fingering techniques that have really helped). The drums are actually EZdrummer with a nice bit of room added. Amazing software I have to admit.

Right, where is the October photograph?

[charic]

I'll ask the winner to get looking tomorrow, currently looking like it's going to be Skol barring any sudden changes

There's some very good stuff been posted, and it was difficult to make a decision.
This competition has also further brought home to me the fact that I don't have a single ounce of creativity in my body, so thanks for that.
