_even_more_riverrun_mixes_(and_turntable_stuff)_

[negative1]

ok,

i put up a mix set of the 'riverrun remix' already
in Post your mixes, music, etc here...


anyways, a few more developments..

just got a new turntable:
-------------------------------
the ION ittUSB

http://www.amazon.com/Ion-iTTUSB-Tur.../dp/B000BUEMOO (got it slightly cheaper from
shortCircuit City)...

anyways, its a (cheesy looking) decent turntable,
that has USB capabilities..it also has line/phono outputs,
and an input jack.. it comes with the free software
audacity ( http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ )

i dont' have a stereo yet, so i wanted something
with a pre-amp...i looked at audio-technica, and
some other ones..but i decided to try out the usb feature
on this..

anyways, the turntable required a few steps to install,
the platter, the belt, the needle, and then it had to be
balanced etc..so after an hour of putting it together,
that part was done..

my new computer had VISTA on it..and audacity supports
that....i tweaked some of the sound settings, and got it
to support outputting the sound as the record...and
then i was good to go...

i tested the recording levels, and was good to go..


riverrun on vinyl
----------------
i had already ordered all 5 records previously (along
with a whole bunch of other stuff new order 12x12,
future retro, etc)... so i had those ready to go..

i started digitizing each of the non-cd mixes,
and the riverrun versions...

yes it was good to hear those in a non-mp3 format
finally...

some of the are actully different from the mp3 versions
(due to mixing, etc)...vanilla monkey sounds very
different....


i will be making a couple of things from these..

- maybe something like a misterions mix 2?
- another mixed set..

it looks like the titles are slightly different from
what i had previously listed in my uwmk3 listing..

also, there appears to be only one:
vanilla monkey mix by martinez - the hungry ghost one,
i thought there were two, but the second one was a
rip from a dj set, and it had faster bpms...

anyways, i'll post more later when i get finished..

by the way,
whoever mastered these records did a great job,
there's very little clipping, and the levels are well defined.

most of the other vinyl i've been sampling clips a lot, and
is very poorly mastered..

i enjoyed your Lemonworld mix from a while ago but thought that suffered greatly from sound quality issues. any chance you can make that mix in a higher quality?

that will require a lot of work..
i need to go back and fix a lot of glitches in those..
which is very time consuming..

also, the originals weren't that great to begin
with, so i'm limited by the bitrate that were at..

done,
i've gone back, and re-editted the lemonworld
tracks..

there were a lot of pops/clicks/skips in some
of the tracks, especially 'shouttwice'..in general
its cleaned up...

now as far as the quality goes, there were 2 original
tracks in 256k, and the rest were 192k, so the
final result is 192kbps...

i'm going through one more soundcheck, with
headphones, and i should be posting
lemon jam v1.1 tomorrow..

hey uw'ers,
i've had time to go back
and redo this mix,
looking back, the original
had some glitches in a few
of the tracks, skipped beats,
missing bars etc..

these were in the original files,
so i really didn't notice them too much..
however, after listening closely,
and a few requests to go back
and fix them, i did so..


there are some noticeable differences
especially in 'shouttwice', which had
several glitches and missed beats,
these have all been fixed..

i've also gone back through each
track, and removed all pops, clicks
and skips...overall it should sound
a lot better..

in my original release, the files
were split (across mp3, and shn)..
however, i'm just going to put
out 1 file as an mp3 (for now)...

as far as the quality goes, 2 of
the original files were 256kbps
and the rest are 192kbps..after
converting to wave files for
editting, i've reencoded them
back down to 192kbps, so they
area all at least the same
quality they started from..

the overall mix is only 51 minutes
long, but the quality is decent,
and there are lots of different
styles of music represented..


all the tracks were originally
available to download for free
from underworldlive.com as
unmixed tracks...

i really like this mix, and
hope you enjoy revisting it,
or if you've never heard them
before...

Looking forward to your UW history mixes, too!
