A Simple Drone: http://poorserver.no-ip.org/ProjectVolu ... drone1.mp3

Notes: Created with PV's Teh 3x OSC in FL Studio 6

Epic (an intro): http://poorserver.no-ip.org/ProjectVolu ... /epic3.ogg

Notes: Created with EastWest's Symphonic Orchestra in FL Studio 6
midi, preset, and automation files available if anyone wants them

Sound Pack 1

Notes: Here are a few sound effects. The door ones I clipped right out of a sound effects CD that Sony puts out (royalty free). The ice one is an audio clip a of a bullet going through glass that I clipped off the gunshot, speeded it up, and ran through a vocoder. The rest are done from scratch in FL.

If Vitriol could copy this into his first post (Quote, copy, paste, remove Quote bbc code) or if someone would lock the old post, I'd be a very happy buearocrat

Also if someone would check this to make sure everything a new contributor would need to know is represented
