putting this out there as possible source for a future sample pack contest

or just as a source of a bunch of samples, its all downloadable (only as mp3 tho i think)

DSF49 should be…

one-sample challenge
small multi pack

Dunno if this is doable but, just a thought, what if we uploaded the entries onto some streaming platform, maybe after the contest or something. Whatever profits it gets could go to the Andy/forum/mods whatever. Could have them as like an album or something. Would be a cool way to go through past competitions and also potentially generate a small bit of money to support the forum

Cool idea but would probably have to make sure the sounds aren’t copyrighted for liability purposes.

We could each have a go at doing a pack of our favourite samples from our own collection.
Say 10 samples per pack…?

i like the “each contribute one sample to the pack” idea better

if everyone contributes 10 we’d end up with like a 100, kinda defeats the purpose of having a limited set of sounds to work with imo

No I mean we each come up with our own pack.
So first competition I create a 10 sample pack from my own collection & everyone uses that.
Next one, you do a 10 sample pack. etc etc

DSF Sample Pack Contest 49: winner = Faultier - #128 by _ronzlo (this comp is over, and @faultier as winner gets first option on choosing the next pack contest unless mistaken. Let’s keep it that way.)

DSF Sample Pack Contest (No Video) - #4 by sleeps (lets just lock thread, merge it into this one, or use as the basis for the @faultier’s DSF50 comp.)
——-

K, so we have a bit of a clusterfuck but nothing we can’t sort. Let’s stop fragmenting (I’m guilty too) said meta-chat in all the various subthreads and keep it here so something finally gets done.

Alright, now that’s out of the way (& thx to CreamLord for pinning) - this is the problem in a nutshell.

Basically ppl wanna do both but not everybody wants to do the proposed format. They’re both gonna happen, so nobody needs to freak. We just need to coordinate so it’s not a clusterfuck.

Normally voting would be called for but tbh I’m wary of those who vote and then don’t participate, so before we try and do a call-out headcount, are there any compelling reasons one or the other should go first? (@MARSEN @faultier you’re running these, so nows a good time to mention any time limitations or other reasons you can’t commit atm…)

Do you just want it pinned up indefinitely?

_ronzlo · March 23, 2020, 3:49am

Yeah, why not - it’ll help keep us lazy fucks on track (hopefully.)

mks · March 23, 2020, 5:36am

You should pin it until 2027.
