CLOSED: Audiotool Summer Games | Round 8 | Naut

  • 12
  • 31

After our excursion into showbiz - thanks to revry - we now return to the roots of our Summer Games: the User Challenges.

Contest Page, this way: https://www.audiotool.com/contest/weekly_challenge_8

This time naut challenges you to record the sounds for your track yourself, using the recording device at your disposal. These can be sounds you create on unusual objects, inside or outside the house. But you can also record musical instruments that you have lying around. The main thing is that it is a recording made with this device and not played directly into the computer.

Challenge Summary:

  • Create a track with self recorded samples
  • No Audiotool synths and drum computers allowed
  • Record sounds or instruments with a recording device
  • No direct input to your computer like hardware synths or similar
  • Any sample processing must happen in Probe or the studio"
  • Name the samples correctly and upload them to the library
  • Other usual rules apply (see Contest Page)
  • Deadline: October 9

  • Seems like I can make it into the Top10 this week 😉

  • remove from sticky

  • ... if I put a fart into a Flanger, would it become angelvoice? ....I need some Proanswers

  • just give us more time, I have a job and a kid.... I want to see the sunlight sometimes ;-) heheh

  • Can I put any recorded samples into the drum machine?

    • Anything you have recorded via a mic can be sequenced with the machiniste, yes.

  • ukelele and bedroom desk banging-core

  • Soooo, what if I record instruments on a different site, simply because it gives a cleaner sound, and then transfer them over to Audiotool? Is that ok?

    • Not in line with the challenge unfortunately. Limit yourself to what you can record with a microphone, no software synths allowed :)

  • So are we just making a melody?

  • This will be interesting. Likely not entering, but it'll be cool to see what you're all capable of with instruments.

  • Are we allowed to use the Machiniste with the samples?

    And if I understand it correct I can record sounds from my keyboard?

    • OK thanks!

    • Yeah, you can use the machiniste to sequence samples, as long as you have recorded the samples.

      If you record with a microphone and not line-in then that technically is within the rules :)

  • been so long since i uploaded a sample. this will be fun! @JayFK can i come over to your kitchen?

    • 😄 sure

      I was in the basement yesterday. It's interesting what noise a hammer makes on an old carpet. 😉

  • If I use a centroid as a synth, that doesn't count as cheating. Right?.....Right?

    • I'm sure I can find other ways to make glitchy electronic sounds 😝

    • Debatable, not really in spirit of the challenge though 😊

  • So we are allowed to use the effects right?

  • type to grab the guitar
