I don't mind about herty. It's just the fact that I'm worried about having too many people and it gets the results of the 4th and 5th one. That's why the 1st worked out, because it only had 6 MPCers and it all flowed... And 17 MPCers for a "song" will be unbalanced. Just my opinion though, I don't want more medley like community comps :/

I think that's a great idea! I would like to participate in the next Community Comp, but my OC Skills are indeed lacking and I do not feel fit to participate in it should it compromise consistency's sake and all that jazz.  |

We always can do 2 different songs with both 7/8 composers

We always can do 2 different songs with both 7/8 composers Exactly, the only reason this didn't work before (for I think the 3rd OC?) was that no-one kept in contact thus one of them fell apart. So long as 2 people are willing to keep in touch with all the entrants & potentially help with positive criticism and maintain mood and structure, it'd work perfectly. That'd also mean we could have 2 different soundfonts in addition to different keys, tempos and moods for each one. I think the best thing to do would be to try and get everyone in a group chat on skype and make sure the organizer has enough free time and is involved in the community enough to keep things on track. I'd offer but I'm pretty busy preparing for university applications (which is why I'm practically on hiatus with everything except keeping up with MPC, I'm very easily distracted >_<). That's why I recommended Herty since he keeps up with everything and I believe would organize it very well, however for an additional community OC I'm not sure who'd be best. Maybe Rehd if he has the time? Hopefully people will eventually decide on who does what soon. Oh and in addition to trying to get everyone in contact, I think it'd also be a good idea to make a video about entries for the community OC, on both the MPH channel as well as whoever will organize it/them. I'm sure there are plenty of people interested who have little to no idea about this forum, let alone that the community is mostly located on skype. And yet again more waffling from me, but hopefully it'll quicken up the process since as soon as it's decided who organizes this then the composing can begin! |

2 would be a good idea due to the large amount of composers in the community. Infact... Myself and 6 other MPCers are already working on a community style comp, just less official atm. Trois, MileProwersFan, Sparkster, GuitarMaster, AquariusCyclone and Pwnzin8r. It uses a custom soundfont - If you want, that could be the 1st one and we can simply add another on top of that. Or it can be a seperate thing. You decide. |

if we have 17 PLUS the other 7 composers working on this less oficial song, so it would be 3 diferent comunity OCs, right o__O?

If anyone still wishes to re-record the 5th community OC, I have the files, or Phazon can be sent the files.
I also apologize for not being here much for the last few days.

I think we should leave this to people with experience and notorious success in OCs.
Everyone who wishes to be part of the Community OC should first make an auto-evaluation to be completely sure they would at least satisfy the expectations for a Community composer. If not, just step aside and let the veterans do it.
I don't want to be the one to name people who shouldn't be part of the next Community OC... but I know no one else will do this. So... if it is needed, I will point out these people.

I agree that the smaller number of composers makes for a better flowing composition (rather than a sporadic medley of mixed emotion), so I do think splitting into groups is a working idea (I apologize for having the other 2-group project fail, which is why I think the idea of having two coordinators would probably be better).
As far as skill level goes, I do think it's an interesting idea to "leave it to the composers with experience," but it's also not very fair to those who just want to do it for fun. Perhaps we could have an "audition-based" group or something to that effect for those who are more serious about creating a collaborative form of art with people across the globe, and then we could also have another group for those who just want to have fun composing with other people (after all, MPC is fun). haha
Just a thought.

Support. I think it would be REALLY unfair to just let the experienced MPCers do it. We need to let other people have a shot too... <_< I suggest we have 2 compositions - One for more 'advanced' OCers (This doesn't mean advanced MPCer - It's possible to be great at remaking music but struggle with thinking up an OC) And one for less experienced OCers, and people who just want to try. This shouldn't mean one composition is treated better than the other - It's just so people of certain experience can work with people their own level. Only problem is it could be REALLY biast. It would be so cruel to name names about who's good and who isn't. |

Can't we just, you know, get sign ups going and pick people out of a hat?

I wouldn't feel so bad if we could just get a list of people, private message them all, then accept the 1st 8 or so into a song, and then have another 'public' song on top of that. That way, people wouldn't have to be rejected, just... Not accepted. |

i'm not sure how many composers would be in each, but we could have like 4....
2 for good OCers, 1 is soundfonted, other is non-soundfonted
2 for not so good OCers, 1 soundfonted, other not
that may be too many but, just an idea
