Here's some information:

............................................................................................
it's time to begin the first modules.pl Multichannel Music Compo!

Rules are simple (I think so) and I hope quite original.
In short: each participant sends one sample, then I pack it into one package and you write a module using them.
Simple? Sure Okay, so let's see the details...

PARTICIPATION:

1. To participate, you have to be registered user
2. You can apply using special form available on modules.pl
3. Each participant has to send ONE, chosen (and it'd be great if created) by him/her sample, which will be used in module.
4. There must be at least 3 participants to start the competition.

SAMPLE:

1. One participant = one sample
2. Sample must be MONO, 8 or 16 bit
3. Sample can't be longer than 64 kB (65536 bytes)
4. "Sequences" are NOT allowed (it doesn't concern sound effects like door creak, sound of sawmill or mangoose snoring). It is said that for example kick+hihat is a sequence.
5. If sample will comply with the requirements mentioned above, your application will be accepted, sample added to sample pack and your nick added to participants list (together with link to his/her sample)

After 7 days, all accepted samples will be packed into one archive and will be available for download from modules.pl

MODULE:

1. One participant = one module
2. You can use ONLY samples from sample pack

EDIT: Can't find the link. Help?

[pyby]

[SoundCrafter]

Question: Do we have to use every sample? I realize we can use only samples from the pack, but do I have to use every one? Some of these clash BIG TIME

[CrazyAznGamer]

W00t, I very much nearly missed this one,

Haha, it'd be cool if you used all the samples, and see what you can do with them. Clashing samples may not fit with each other, but I look at it as a challenge

[SoundCrafter]

Well, this is upsetting.

I'm having some computer troubles as of late, and it's been determined that the only way to fix it is by replacing the mobo. I don't feel like doing that, plus my computer is old anyway, and so I am getting a new computer. Unfortunately, my old computer (this is being written on a temporary PC that doesn't have OMPT) will not stay on long enough even to sign on to the internet. That being said, I will have to withdraw from this compo...what a shame, I really had something going here...oh well. If I get the chance, I'll upload what I had...damn it all.

I'll notify AceMan...
