Make everyone in Ventrilo the same volume

Oct 30, 2009 Engineering

We’ve all been there. The one asshole in Vent that blasts us with  machine-gun like volume.  His laughter blows your speakers and his plosives and sibilance are CIA-approved torture techniques.  Or the worst case scenario: The unstable audio connection that sends shock waves of static bursts that make you impulsively throw your headphones across the room.  He can’t control it because he’s a savage.  But that doesn’t mean you have to put up with it!  Follow these nine steps and everyone will be the same volume!

Mike Omni – Provocative Dreams

Oct 29, 2009 Audio, Mike Omni, Soundtrack

Mike Omni’s “Provocative Dreams” revolves in phases; from hopeful to yearning to triumphant and back again.  The Fender Rhodes MKII beds the whole track and teeters between beauty and cacophony.  The Ovation acoustic evokes a sense of loss and determination at the leading behest of a fat-bottomed Ocean one-piece bass.

Mike Omni – Caldera

Oct 28, 2009 Audio, Hardcore, Mike Omni, Punk, Rock

Energy abounds in this hard rock composition from Mike Omni.  With a thick, abrasive bottom end and dueling guitars screaming on the top, this won’t just blow your mind, it’ll blow your soul.

Mike Omni – Slipping Away

Oct 27, 2009 Audio, Classical, Mike Omni, Soundtrack

A beautiful concert grand weaves melancholy within an eerie atmosphere in this piano solo from Mike Omni.  What starts with mourning crescendos into a powerful piece that sings of hope only to reiterate that the hard part is still ahead.

Mike Omni – The Sun Sets Again

Oct 26, 2009 Audio, Drum & Bass, Electronica, Mike Omni

Crank up your bass to eleven and get ready as Mike dusts off his vocal cords (and vocoder) for this high-energy Drum & Bass banger.  With a bottom end fatter than Christopher Wallace, a head full of screaming saw synths and lyrics straight out of William Gibson’s Neuromancer, this one is sure to please the scary little caffeinated child in all of you.

Mike Omni – Dem Be Bahtee

Oct 24, 2009 Audio, Mike Omni, Reggae, Urban

Hard beats and a bass so thick it’s offensive.  The eerie patch from Blue carves a line through the choppy reggae organs in this new one from Mike Omni.

Mike Omni – The Days Get Darker

Oct 23, 2009 Audio, Jazz, Mike Omni, R&B, Rock

The stars of this Mike Omni piece are the dueling harmonies from his beautiful one-piece Ocean bass. While the two movements compete for your affection, the Les Paul Classic trickles notes onto you just like Jimmies on soft serve. The Fender Roads MKII, a Mike Omni favorite, breathes heavenly life under the composition.

Oct 22, 2009 Audio, Mike Omni, Soundtrack

Vincent dePaul – Civilian

Oct 21, 2009 Audio, Critical Mass, Urban, Vincent dePaul

The melancholy of Viktomajarmo’s composition drove my pessimistic vitriol outward.  As you can tell, I have little faith in my generation to do anything worthy of merit.
