fleabag Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 How very dare you. Its a very legitimate way of making a noise Quote
DJpullchord Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 (edited) Okay I’ve done one. its called ‘spores and chainsaws’. please excuse all the background noise, family life etc. How do I get onto here from a voice memo on my iPhone? Is it even possible? Please excuse my ignorance. Edited January 14, 2018 by DJpullchord Quote

Create if you've not got one, it's free, a Soundcloud account, then load the file, preferably in MP3 format, to there. Post a link to the Soundcloud track, stand back and admire. If any of that causes issues, post again here with description of the problem and someone is sure to be able to help. Ignorance..? Dunno what that means, innit..? Quote
DJpullchord Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Can’t find an option to create an account? Do I need the app? ta Quote

Interesting little read regarding MP3 format and Soundcloud uploads (a couple of minutes). Near the end of the article, it recommends (possibly), uploading a Wav file. Although, every man and his dog has a theory on Soundcloud and compression it seems. I find it all very confusing. Quote
Dad3353 Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 What's an 'app' (don't forget, I'm old..! )..? I use a PC, and go to the 'Soundcloud' site. There, there is an option for creating an account. It is normally displayed on the first page, when addressing 'Soundcloud.com'. Try that..? Quote
Dad3353 Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 'Wav' files are fine, too, but more bulky, so longer upload time, s'all. Remember, for what I do, I'm not looking for commercial uber quality; the 'standard' stuff is, I find, quite good enough for my cloth ears. Quote
DJpullchord Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Can’t upload to it from a phone. Will have to miss this one! Quote
Dad3353 Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Does it work any better from outside the cave..? ... ... Quote

If so it's very easy to create an account - the link is in the top right-hand corner of the SoundCloud homepage. If you're using phone only, then let us know and I'll try ti find a workaround. 15 hours ago, lowdown said: Interesting little read regarding MP3 format and Soundcloud uploads (a couple of minutes).

I've always just uploaded the highest resolution WAV file that I'm able to muster (usually 24/48 or sometime 24/96) on the blind assumption that the better quality I put in, the better quality that SoundCloud's ham-fisted compression algorithm is likely to put out. But that is literally just guesswork. Quote
DJpullchord Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Phone only at the moment. I may see if I can upload to YouTube and post that. Computer is packed for imminent moooooove. Quote

Skol303 Posted January 19, 2018 Author Posted January 19, 2018 ...I'd just like to say, given it's the start of the year, how damn good the music has gotten in these monthly challenges (my own notwithstanding). Seriously. It blows me away each month. Have a listen at how we all sounded a few years ago and it's even more impressive how far we've come (yeah I need to fix all the links on that page, I know...). Well done all. Sterling work 1 Quote
Bleat Posted January 21, 2018 Posted January 21, 2018 (edited) Well I have just about got something done, which is amazing considering I'm currently suffering a heavy cold and have gone virtually deaf... so maybe not the best mix ever Cheers, James. ps dunno how to embed these stupid files ! https://soundcloud.com/foolsjourney/where-the-wild-mushrooms-grow Edited January 21, 2018 by Bleat being a tit Quote
SH73 Posted January 23, 2018 Posted January 23, 2018 (edited) Here is mine Just drums, guitars and bass ........and shite mastering, ha. Edit: I have deleted the track as there is a dreadful hiss and hum. I`ll try and amend it this morning, then re post. Hope it is still OK to enter.I have listened to all tracks and must say that they all great. I have picked two top ones https://soundcloud.com/user-527099495/bass-groove-m-mshrms-re Edited January 25, 2018 by SH73 file re attached Quote
