Wow, that sucks if so. Am about to dash for work so I can't do a reupload; however, the SoundCloud link will also let you download everything.

PITILESS LIVE SHOW (DJP), Thursday, 19 July 2012 14:46 (10 months ago) Permalink

stupid technical question; what am I doing wrong in Garageband that everything I export comes out really, really soft? I have no idea how to make my stuff LOUDER, which is frustrating

This is normal - the music you hear on a professional record is mastered, and part of the mastering process is making it much louder than on the original recording tapes or whatever.

The most direct tool you can use to increase loudness is a limiter. Limiters work by reducing the amplitude of the largest peaks in a waveform, allowing you to then increase the gain further without clipping. The downside of this of course is that you're compressing the dynamic range.

THESE ARE ALL FAKE GUYS. There is a soundcloud list of Centipede hz "covers" and "remixes" the uploader just took those tracks and changed the cover/remix artists and replaced them with animal collective's god name. Dont believe it

Please do not believe these recordings for a second. These will not be on the final recording and are just demos that were leaked by an engineer who has since been fired. These were unmastered and do not reflect the final contents of Centipede Hz or the true capabilities of the band.

I didn't do this with the intention of fooling anyone, I can understand why people would be disappointed or annoyed if they were expecting AC and got me.

I wouldn't sweat it. This isn't like people releasing fake Boards of Canada mp3s on the sly back in the day, this is a band with two (extremely distinctive) vocalists. A band that have been playing these tunes live for ages - they're all over YouTube and other sites so unless ILX really takes it to the next level and starts shooting fake gigs, it's pretty obvious what's real and what's not.

Sure as long as someone's happy:

this is sooooooooooooo good. i <3 u avey tare and want to make you wide eyed and wide other things
