★★ BILF 2015 (Category Winners Announced Pg 27! Fuck!) ★★

[rfurtkamp]

To be fair, my chance of winning anything is about 0% since I have fairly non-hip choices!

[PetZounds]

How about this:

After all voting is done from each category (small, med, large), the top two from each go on to compete in a finalist round.
I'll contact each person who makes it to finals and ask them if they have the capability to do a short cell phone demo.
If each of them say that they can do it, then we'll have sound clips for finals.
If any of them don't have the ability (no camera or whatever), then in the interest of fairness we'll probably have to go without clips.

Anyone have any additional suggestions or does this seem like a decent plan for the time being?

[rfurtkamp]

Even cellphone demos won't be created equal (interface, phones, etc).

If we go demo, let the folks doing it decide IMO - audio, video, format, whatever.

We're not restricting their guitar choice or amps etc either - so why go there with the limiting cell phone?

BECAUSE I AM GOD AND WHAT I SAY GOES


Just kidding.
That does make sense, I suppose if we have demos at all we might as well let folks do them however they want.

[goroth]

Put all demos on youtube
Shitty compression algorithms = the great leveler

[rfurtkamp]

SC streaming isn't much better to be honest.

(It's why I have *everything* set to downloadable, it's a pale imitation of itself streamed even with good cans or monitors)

[morange]

I say, if we are going to listen to demos, let at least some of them sound great. Forget about fairness, think of my enjoyment!

OH SHIT my board is in one piece and I'm going to actually remember to enter this year

[goosekevin]

reminder to myself to enter

[behndy]

Members of the community vote on which board they like the most, and then the winner is voted in as the year's prom queen!

I'd be lying if I said I've never fantasized about being a prom queen. Or any kind of queen really.

i'm right there with you gurrrrrrrrrrL.

super excited to see everybody's boards. don't think i'm going to enter though. SO freaking flattering to win last year, but i have the same board still. mebbe one pedal swap.

but BRING. ON. THE. LOOT.

[UglyCasanova]

Question: Do volume/expression pedals need to be on the board to count? I don't mind if they do, as it would just make it harder to pick the other pedals or skip the volume/expression pedal.

Hopefully, I'll remember to send in a board.

[rfurtkamp]

Expression/external FS is attached seems to be simply part of the pedal it's attached to in practice.

Little different than full MIDI but...I'd say it depends on you and your actual use as to whether it should be 'attached'.

I agree here, usually an expression pedal seems to be an extension of the pedal it's plugged into, rather than something on its own.
Unless it's some crazy fancy one that has 60 outputs and 7 LFOs or something.

Submitted! Changing the image title may or may not have worked, using a pretty poor laptop here. Sorry if it didn't do it right.
