Vocals Competition?

Postby doomtron » Thu Sep 03, 2009 12:49 pm

I was just thinking, since vocals are released in the 3.120 betas and will be in the final release, are we going to have vocals competitions?

I have a few ideas on how it would work:
Sync would be judged as how well the vocals are synced to the singer.
Instead of Note Placement, Pitch Placement would be judged.
Song choice would be about the same.

I think this would be interesting(I would enter one).

They are canadian, which is why they come in bags." So you end up wanting to hang out with your rastafarian friend but wait, YOU DON'T HAVE ANY FRIENDS.

Then, when the clock strikes twelve, you realize that your goldfish are quickly running out, and you wonder to yourself "Do goldfish feel pain?" So to test this theory you begin to break them in half, demanding that they give you direct coordinates to the rebel base. But they say nothing, so you continue to munch on their cheesy wheat-y goodness. But what's this? THE BAG IS EMPTY!

Alone in your dark empty room, you crawl your hollow shell of a body to the darkest corner, and your mourn, you mourn the lost of your goldfish, and you ponder... should I buy another bag?

That is a ****' goldfish.

Well, hopefully as the vocals code gets better more people will become interested.

Every once in a while, I wondered if this feature would become popular enough for a Vox competition. For those interested, I have begun a tutorial thread with a tested (albeit cumbersome) method to create a working vocal chart. Alternate means are in discussion and new ideas are welcome:

Code: Select all

<@away_xbox> Looks like it's your lucky day Amak11 >:) Since i don't see Amak here ill choose somebody else....
* @away_xbox straps 15 sticks of TNT to Amak11's body. The display reads [58] seconds.
<@away_xbox> Diffuse the timer by cutting the correct wire. There are 14 wires. They are Green White Peenus Indigo Black Gold Grey Brown Violet Turquoise Teal Magenta Mauve and Yellow.
<Amak11> oh really
<Belisario93> hmm
<Amak11> !cutwire Peenus
<@away_xbox> ...snip....
<@away_xbox> Amak11 cut the Peenus wire. This has defused the timer on the TNT! Just try and get it off you without setting it off, ok?

Yeah, more people will fret vocals once EOF has full vocals support.

You can currently use any UltraStar compatible tool out there and just convert it, or do what ryanpanties does and use a keyboard to find the appropriate note values.

You would need two microphone inputs that are processed and evaluated independently.
Is this even possible with the mainstream audio chipsets out there?

EDIT: Oops, sry, my mistake.

I dont think you understand. the competition is not two people against eachother on the same song for the highest score.

It would be a bunch of people who made their own songs with vocals tracks and they would judge who made the best one.

The drum competition hardly gets any entries, I don't see something this difficult to chart to be popular.

Spoiler:

It's not a real goose, it's only a picture of one.

That's pretty much it. Unlike instrumental tracks, the vocal track has to be accurate, since note placement is not subjective. Judging would be a painful experience as well, as judges would have to pretty much play back the pitches, on an instrument or in a MIDI editor or something.
