oh.

damn second. yeah your voices are sweet. gotta love em.

anyway, whenever i watch tankmen or 300, i savor (lol) the sound of that classic voice. It sounds very professional

That's awesome man, you would have never thought about it, heh heh.

im with you on the OCD thing.. thats how i feel about the mouse i use.. its a logitech one that is no longer made anymore but im CONVINCED its that exact mouse that i need so i just buy extras on ebay for 99 cents.... ive bought really expensive mice but this ghetto one just works perfectly.. i cant explain it... same with your professional socom headset...

Is the Mac SoundStudio any relation to the Amiga tracker "OctaMED SoundStudio?"

If it is, I may well give it a play. If not, I'll stick to my overpriced toys :)

Yeah, cheap works. I spent nothing on my mic, but it's an old radioshack omni dynamic mic that can be found on ebay for five bucks, so there you have it. My sound system is basically an Audigy 4 Pro, and it works alright. But everything I record gets a hefty layer of hiss added to the track's background, and try as you might with expensive equipment, removing it will damage the audio. There's just no way around that, so cheap works, but I swear I can't wait until I can afford a new setup.

Thanks for sharing all that stuff, pretty sweet.

That makes me feel silly for getting my poor quality $80 mic.

:'(

Haha I just use the mic in my iMac. I have a bunch of nice microphones, my family being very musical, but usually I'm too lazy so I just use the iMac microphone and edit it in audacity, and If I remove background noise, it sounds pretty sweet.

I use audacity and a basic logitech usb headset. It works all right.

on topic:
I use an eyetoy camera that is used for the Eyetoy games for PS2(how ironic).

off topic:
when are you going to make Tankmen 3?

Haha, I use crap I salvage from places.
Eytoy as a camera and mic, a mouse i got from school...

And the guy asking about tankmen, its tankmen 2* ohmygodohmygodwhensitout

Whoops
I meant the third tankmen.

hey sounds like you ghetto'ed it up.. word

im gonna go buy one now

In a unrelated story: Is there going to be a bit of Office Space soundtrack in the 2nd Tankmen, as there was in the first?

BTW I figured out Mountain Dew game fuels secret, it taste like cherry gummy bears.

I drank a whole two liter of it yesterday, and the caffeine content was making my insides burn, I don't recommend it. I was fucking miserable.

I got one of 'em Logitech headsets too. One of the ear pieces are broke but it still should work. I'm gonna try it out and see how it works. If it works great for you should work good for me too right? Besides, my crappy lil' $15 mic isn't really the most charming.

you sound an awfully lot like trey parker sometimes

why using sound studio, when you have garageband?
garageband offers you some basic filters, and i like the way you can edit them so easily.

if only I had a mac :( ty for the info jeff

Your profile pic looks familiar :\

OctaMED SoundStudio is (I think) a tracker program. SoundStudio is an audio editor.

I have bested you! I have NO mic! I use nothing but the finest pencils to write down the voice file on the harddrive!

haha i remember sending you a pm about your sound. i didnt wanna give into buying that so i got some podcasting mic instead.

when i think about it i probably could have saved like 70 bucks if i got that headset instead but at least it makes recording easy. or maybe im just a chump.

Look a dot

titty

Hehe, I have a little OCD thing like that as well. Then again... I have some other OCD problems which are a bit more intrusive. Still, relatively informative about how the price tag might not signify the value.

Hah, I use a peice of shit my grandpa found in someone elses trash.

well it's not like I Voice Act anyways.

Back in my day we didnt have no fancy microphones.
When we wanted sound in our internet cartoons, we'd hire the town cryer to record for us.
We'd stand him up, shout the lines in the script as loudly as we could, and then send him on his way to visit every house watching that particular cartoon at the time.
oh thems was dahk tahms, child.

thx

Thanks for sharing your story. :D

i make songs using a really shitty logitech mic and Sound recorder for Windows. i put a sock over the mic to get rid of feedback. i put up a song on Newgrounds that we used to record all of the instruments AND vocals. it came out pretty good. btw i have OCD as well.

I came to your profile to say something like "STOP BEING SO NICE TO YOUR FANBASE" but I actually read your post.

I'm in a similar situation as you. My old shitty headphones broke on me and my mom generously went to get new ones. She came back and i was sorta pissed to see that they were microphone/headphones. I didn't say anything because I didn't want to seem like an ungrateful prick...turns out they play music LOUD as balls, which I like. And it records crisp and perfect audio. Which is awesome because I record voices in most of my flashes.

So we both won. We got what appears to be cheap shit, but it's just as effective as any other mic. Well...maybe. I haven't really compared my audio to yours.

Glad to see such an established animator using cheap things that get the job done effectively.

btw, MAKE MOAR TANKMANS THEY R FUNY.

i have sound studio too im guessing you have a mac like me? =D

Heh, yeah I use SoundStudio3 too, with a video camera as a mic though. I guess you win there...
