It all started as a rather innocent comment on Quite's 64k intro called 'qq' to which, Preston did the usic. For reference, here's the actual comments in chronological order:
Punqtured: "Overall, it's not one of your best. But it certainly has cool camera-moves. A very nice AO tunnel and some really nice ideas in the soundtrack. It does lack bass, though, and I really have to agree with saga on the drums part. I know it's V2, but I've heard better drums (especially the kick) from that synth. The composition and the filter-enveloped(LFO'ed?) sounds are nice, though.
But all in all, the production is solid and I actually like the design/colors."
Preston: "Punqtured, can u show examples of "better drums part" in v2?"
Punqtured: "Most of Teo's executable music entries will have, yes ... haven't got any of them around at the moment, though. But I'm sure they're on scene.org somewhere. His entry for Revision 2012 32k executable music perhaps? Yup ... K0rnmeister by Teo for starters"
Preston: "Punqtured: url?"
Punqtured: "Preston: (link to k0rnmeister by Teo)
It's mainly the kick I'm talking about. It's got a somewhat more punchy frequency distribution. The one in the intro seems bland compared to Teo's"
Preston: "Punqtured, its really good bd. But u said "drums" ) And where u hear "better drums"? I mean snare, hats etc"
Punqtured: "Preston: Well - I could use time to find songs where I find the snare or the hats to be better, but it's all just personal preference. Taste. What people like or not. But it'd be downright ignorant to insist that nobody ever made better "drums" with V2 than those used in this track ;)"
Preston: "Punqtured, I does not matter what you say. And I have nothing to defend. I just know how its difficult to create snare drums or hats in this synthesizer. Never heard something like that. I'm proud of what i did in buggy V2. I found the opportunity to make so-so snare and breakbeat loop. And when u tell me how someone makes bassdrum... man its too simple to create. ) It's just ridiculous. This means that you do not understand how it works. And I do not care about you suckers. Of course i can be in silence, but i can fuck u off ) What i did. U loosers. Tell yo mammy about your tastes..."
Punqtured: " (quote) This means that you do not understand how it works. (/quote)
Oh, I'm sure I have a pretty decent idea of the inner workings of softsynths, my good Mr. Preston ;)
But it seems you're completely ignorant to constructive critisism, so here's an altered version of my above comments:
YEAH! You totally ROCK - Never EVER change anything. You're to 64k intro-music what Sergei Bubka is for polevault ..."
Preston: "@Punqtured: its not constructive critisism - its mostly bla.. bla..."
Punqtured: "Ok"
That's when we decided to pull off a quick intro as a spin off of this discussion :)
