Has Anyone got the Midi for any of the parts as your not getting much free parts with this comp....
So once I submit MY remix, I can't legally distribute it to my friends?
I think the main synth is the most important part I didnt download yet
yes but i want the midi notes so i can make my own sounds instead of using his sounds thats all.
oh shit is wav/mp3 not midi ooh ok lol
Sry man
yeah no probs easy mistake.
Sounds like fun 
I think the samples have way too much delay/reverb on them for them to distributed as remix parts, why couldnt PVD include dry parts instead

Thanks... just bought the pack and got the other two samples as well. Nice to have... although I do see what you are saying, Stef de Roux, about the samples and reverb.
Number 3 concerns me a bit - you're gonna get a crap quality track unless you cut the start-end points of the track to boucne it at 320kbs. How the hell are you gonna get a track to sound good at <128kbs on MP3?

Need the midi files, even just for the lead!! Are there any programs that can extract the midi sequence from a wav file? Otherwise I guess its just trial and error trying to play it on the keyboard.

When I had Windows I remember finding a couple freebies and cheapies that didn't do a bad job. Edit: I'm away from my computer (on my BB now) otherwise I'd post a link...and out of town with no access to Ableton and my controller until Saturday otherwise I'd hammer it out. |

Must say that I am getting a bit sick of this shit.
- You want to hold a remixcompetition, because,
- You want to discover new talent, on which,
- You can probably make a lot of money out.
And that you let us pay to download some damn samples!!!
You guys might disagree but I am getting so sick that we have to pay for the samples to enter a remixcomp. Indeed, the original track is included to, but if I don't want it. Is not like you can create a entire remix based on the two free samples you can download.
Fuck this, I ain't entering!!
Sorry for the faulty language
Not gonna lie..."Far Away" is a one hell of a bland track. I love Giuseppe and Paul...but I was shocked at the out come of this track.
Hooray for the new "pay to remix" thing 
the probably make more money with selling samples than with the actual tune
