Aww He's my favourite coach trip contestant for all the twitter love he's shown you

Nicky's getting a lot of love on twitter atm from girls that went to hang about outside the arena for going out and talking to them. And some accusations of being a liar for saying Luke didn't go out because it was cold (rolleyessmilie, as if he's going to say 'no he's staying inside because he can't take any more of your crap'). Nice to see though.

Yay!!!


You might need to explain this in better detail. Trying to figure which bit could be classed as "the steps up"?


It would massively to just have an acapella, even moreso if the backing vocals were on a separate acapella track but that's very unlikely to surface anytime soon.


Not quite. I did reduce the bass on the wavfile but I've not got the opportunities


Is this stuff you can do on Audaity?

There's a very long history of emigration from both parts of Ireland to the west coast of Scotland, I think a lot of people have some kind of ties with both countries.

I do think there's an anti-Scottish thing amongst some English, but I also think there's a more general sense of distance and difference, and lack of that kind of connection.

I've just realised I've written a load of nonsense here. Phase cancellation will only work on stripping vocals from the instrumental backing (i.e. removing it, rather than isolating it) so all the invert-one-channel stuff is rubbish.

Apparently melodyne (with the Direct Note Access feature) can work quite well to an extent to isolate vocals out of mixes (though anything that hits the same note will come along for the ride - whether they be guitar notes or whatever, but could help in getting rid of the original drums). Of course, it's expensive (€699) but there is a 30 day trial version on their website which has most features available. It interjects random beeps into the audio signal but do a couple of different takes and I guess you could edit together a beepless extracted vocal?)

He needs to taste my pancakes .

He also favourited 'Who am I going to shamelessly objectify now? ;'('

He's clearly a tart

Yeah. It's funny how this is making me more aware of it. I've never really given it much thought before.

There was a comment on the Answerphone video thread on the MFs from someone (standard knee-jerk anti-Nicky comment saying 'no looks, no presence' blah blah and they finished up with 'plus he's Scottish'. Maybe it was meant to be a joke but in my world, jokes at least have a soupçon or even a tincture of wit in them. Or at least a winky face to heavy-handedly signify the presence of an attempt at humour. Or even a lol at the end of a sentence to indicate they're just an idiot.

So you've got your chord progression, which consists of four chords. During the first three chords the bass is mainly playing the root note of the chord. On the fourth chord, in the last bar, the bass starts stepping up from the root note to lead back to the root note of the first chord again (during the 'ooh-ooh And my…' vocal bit). Does that make sense?




Yeah it's a bugbear of mine that acapellas aren't derigeur. I can't write a song from scratch to save my life, but I can rearrange/remix existing songs to my hearts content and love doing so. Finding acapellas of things I *want* to remix though is increasingly hard.




Ok what software do you use? You should be able to just stick an eq on the channel strip, or multiple eqs if needs be.



[/quote] Is this stuff you can do on Audaity?[/quote]

Yep. Though as I said, I got it the wrong way round. It only works for removing whatever is absolutely dead centre in the mix (usually vocals, bass and drums) but won't help lift a vocal out of the mix.

Guess everyone went to bed. Lightweights!

Anyway, just been checking Nicky's mentions on twitter after the Newcastle gig tonight and I do get the impression he's winning doubters and indifferents over from his tour performances.

This was one of my favourite tweets I came across.


Also, love this photo https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BhXPcWAIIAACAFK.jpgrig

EDIT: Turns out that tweet earned that girl a follow. Yep, follow the Johnny-come-lately's why not. But not us ****ers who have been here since the ****ing auditions. Pfft.

I'm still up.

Also, damnit, he better follow us Thursday!

I'm still up! Just no one was posting anything so I thought all you lot had :/

Glad he's winning people over. That picture is seriously disturbing though

I'm going to pretend I didn't see the edit

I posted three posts in a row like a mental!

And yes, like Cake says, he'd better follow us on Thursday else my fan-gills are in danger of being clogged by bitterness.

Still, Ben from Coach Trip Dm'd me to tell me how tall he was so, you know, it's not all bad

Just three? Slacker


Why Thursday in particular?

And 'fan-gills', now I think you look like a sontaran.


Bad shirts all forgotten, eh That's really sweet though (I assume you actually asked him and he doesn't just go around DMing people telling them 'hey, I'm 6'2", btw' or anything). Perhaps he'll go in for other stuff now?

Even I have a limit on how mental I'll allow myself to appear




He tweeted that he's going to do his biggest ever follow spree and that he'll follow 'you all'. How that's even going to be possible I don't know but needless to say I'm expecting to be left fuming again




Yep, I tweeted him. He took it to DM though. I'm taking that as the virtual equivalent of 'going somewhere quiet'

Really?!




Oh dear. I'll get the kettle on...


Absolutely! I thoroughly approve

Edit: er, by 'other stuff' above I did mean other reality tv shows, just so that's clear! But you know, whatever and all...

Oi!

(You may have a point)




Probably for the best,




Oh don't worry, I wasn't taking it to mean anything dirty.

Though I wonder what other dimension-related questions he'd be willing to answer

You know it


I wish he wouldn't make promises like that that he can't possibly keep. But I'm going to have faith


I'm sure you mean how big his house his. Definitely. Couldn't be anything else.

Still seems to be a lot of love for Nicky on twitter this morning, nice to see he's winning people over (look! on topic! where's my prize?).

[quote=sycamore;71520241]You know it




Yeah. Even if he just follows the people who retweeted that particular tweet, that's 1600 people plus.

And of course, if he does, it devalues a follow anyway. He can't really win. But never mind that, WHERE'S MINE? Does he not know how much I've had his back in the wild west of the DS forums since the beginning??!




Judging from the hints that I've seen, his house is pretty big.


Yep. Definitely seems like yesterday's gig in particular was a good one. God, I'd love to hear that voice live. Vicarious twitter stalking only goes so far.

Yes, exactly. Lose-lose situation.


I can't begin tell you how much I'm looking forward to Thursday.


Is that a euphemism? I can't even tell any more


Well the only person stopping you seeing him is you, you do realise that!

You're looking forward to my inevitable abject despondency? You're a cruel, cruel woman!




It's most definitely a euphemism




Meh. I'm in Brighton at the moment doing my godfather duties and have tried to persuade my friends (one or the other) to accompany me to no avail

Trying to detect sympathy based on language variants and accents, Ulster may more likely have some "literary" ties than the Republic..
