STADIUM BEATS & PLAYER BEATS

[bsbllfan12]

does anyone use this, ive been thinking of great ideas for my stadium beats like uploading the fox sports net song to be played during the intro and after the innings and such just to add to the realism of the game a little. Also using "the charge" for in between pitches i think that would be awesome as well. Just one problem.. i dont know how to make it one specific song for each scenario.. do i just have to make multiple playlists with just one song? help needed

[jeffy777]

Yes, if you only want one song per player/event, then you have to make a specific playlist for each each song.

For my players, I personally just use one big playlist for all the players with a bunch of my fav songs, that way it plays a random song for the players, instead of the same one every time.

I also used an audio program on my PC to add echo/reverb to my songs so they actually sound like they are being played on the stadium speakers. And I edited them so I could use different parts of the songs instead of just the beginning.

I have done also the same for player beats. I used a bunch of songs and catergorized them for batter walk up. The only problem i have is that if my team is playing away and not at home. There batter walk up still comes on. Is there anyway to fix this. The batter walk up music is usually only played in the home stadium.

[jeffy777]

The way to fix it would be to use stadium beats instead of player beats. Go to you home stadium and set the playlist for home team batter walk up, then the playlist will only play for your players at their home stadium.

i got most of this to work, it was interesting how the FOX sports theme song wouldnt even rip from my cd to my hard drive, a little error sign would appear next to track 14 so hmm possibly some kind of copyright deal idkk,, anyone try that? maybe just a bum file

hey I am still not sure how to acutally upload the beats into each player/stadium! I have songs on my HDD but how to I put them into the game????

Hey, Jeffy what's the program called that you use? I have been looking for one to do that as well.

You have to save the songs as playlists in your Xbox Dashboard first. Then you can assign playlists to the players/stadiums.

Hey, Jeffy what's the program called that you use? I have been looking for one to do that as well.

I use Adobe Audition for editing songs, adding echo/reverb effects, etc :)

[twilight313]

I also have that adobe program..But i stream my music my zune file on my computer..So i guess i will Have to edit my songs i want then put them on a playlist and apply them to a stadium or player correct..Or should i just load them on a CD then put on my Hard Drive..

[bdiv]

Sweet, thanks Jeff. I found a free 30 day trial version that Im planning on using in the near future.. Is it fairly easy to create the echo effects? Are there any specific settings, tweaks, etc. that you could pass along to me so I won't have to mess around with it myself? Thanks in advance.

[airlebron_23]

hey thats a great idea wit tha fox sports theme song, anyone wanna upload tha mp3 of them for me, & other player songs and tha ones u have with tha echos jeffy777

Here is the easy way to add echo effects in Adobe Audition:

Load up an Mp3 then go to Effects >> Delay Effects >> Full Reverb

There are different presets there. I like to use the "Church" preset because it sounds the most like a stadium.

I also use different chunks of the song, so that way the chorus or whatever will play in 2K8 instead of just the intro. To edit out chunks, just drag your mouse over the parts of the song you want to get rid of, and hit DELETE on your keyboard.

Then just save the file as a wav. Once you have a bunch of them, burn them to a CD, rip to your 360, save them as playlists, then apply the playlists to your players/stadium beats.

Any more questions, let me know and I'll be happy to help. :)

[airlebron_23]

uhh can u answer my question?

[bsbllfan12]

with that adobe program do you still get all the features on the free trial that you would get with the real deal or is it limited access?

[jeffy777]

uhh can u answer my question?

I don't know if you'll like the songs I have. They aren't official players songs. Mostly classic/modern rock stuff, just random songs I like. Couple examples: "Takin Care of Business", "Enter Sandman" by Metallica, etc. If you or anyone is interested, I could zip them up for you. Send me a PM.

As for the trial of Adobe Audition, I think it is basically the same as the full version, but it's been a long time since I used the trial.

[bsbllfan12]

hey jeff would you mind trying to upload the Fox song to your 360 just to see if it works for you?

[jeffy777]

Sure, I'll try it in the morning :)

[bdiv]

Would you mind uploadin the Takin' Care of Business song, and/or any other songs you may have that would be useful like.. between innings or something like that. Thanks in advance man, I appreciate it.

[bsbllfan12]

any luck this morning? jw :D

[jeffy777]

I couldn't find the link to the fox song, could you post it for me?

I'll upload some of my songs (with echo) for anyone who's interested :)

[bdiv]

If you could post Takin' Care of Business, and any others that would be suitable for in-between innings would be sweet.

scroll down to very bottom of page and youll see the download link for the song

[jeffy777]

Yeah, it works great :)

I'm working on uploading some rock songs now (with stadium echo)

[bsbllfan12]

ok whenever you get the chance i want you to find out if you can rip that one to your hard drive, dont feel rushed tho, appreciated jeff

[jeffy777]

Yes, it works fine. I just convert it to a wav file then burn it to a CD, then rip it to my 360.

I'll have a link for you guys tomorrow with the songs I use if anyone is interested in them. I have a bunch uploading right now.

[bsbllfan12]

ok if you could just include the fox song that would be great man. thanks

[bsbllfan12]

one more thing, you can rip the songs off of a flash drive cant you? or does it strictly have to be a cd?

[jeffy777]

I'm not sure about the flash drive. I don't have a flash card, so I never tried it.

So are you saying you would like me to add echo to the fox song?

[jeffy777]

OK guys, you can find my collection of rock songs with stadium echo/reverb added HERE (http://strongfamily.us/music/)

You'll notice some songs have several different versions. This is because I broke the song up into 45 second chunks, using different parts of the song such as the intro, chorus, etc. That way it keeps the songs more fresh in the game because you don't here the same part every time :) And the game never plays more than 45 seconds of a song anyway.

[bdiv]

Wow thanks so much Jeffy, this helps out alot. I really appreciate it, man.

[GhostRider]

Yeah, it works great :)

You Iz a Musician then, Jeffy?What unit are you using to add echo with?Are you also a (777) Vai fan?

[bsbllfan12]
