Spooky I'LL HOST IT ON MY AOL HOMETOWN WEBSITE WITH THE PICTURES OF MY CAT

Mockery No problem, I appreciate you looking into it. Let me know if any of your friends can offer free space. Even if it's something like 200 megs and a couple gigs of bandwidth per month, I'm sure I could use it for the upcoming mp3s.

liquidstatik Oh pooh, its running on a cable modem I got a few friends that run hosting services, so if I can find one that has a good connection and wouldnt mind setting up a mirror site ill let ya know but as for now I cant help ya.
Jun 28th, 2003 05:49 PM
liquidstatik Well... I THINK its hosted in a wharehouse with a T1 line, but I emailed him and he hasn't replied yet. But when he replies I'll let ya know.

Mockery Liquid, what is your friend's server though? I mean, if he's running it off of his cable modem, that's not gonna do the trick. Having 20 gigs of space is great, but if it can't handle a good chunk o' bandwidth, it's not gonna help too much.

And yeah, I wouldn't host them on your server AChimp... but for the record, I don't even need ftp access. The people who are going to mirror the files are more than welcome to upload them on their own.
Jun 27th, 2003 04:09 PM
AChimp I would host them, but I don't trust Mockery with FTP access and MP3s would download really slow off the server I'm on anyways.
Jun 27th, 2003 03:14 PM
liquidstatik Im hosted on my friends server(20gb of space) so im sure I can host a few of em. If you want I can just pm u my ftp info and u can upload em yourself, cause im on dialup and would take too long for me too upload em

Mockery I'm just waiting on ZeroSignal. He's the one converting all of the songs from CD to mp3. So whenever he's done with them, I'll be ready to put them online. 650mb is pretty good man, I'm sure we'll be able to mirror at least one of the albums there.

What I'm planning on doing is releasing 2 songs per day on the site, rather than all of them at once. For one thing, it'll keep people coming back, but the main thing is I don't want to kill all the bandwidth off in one swoop. By spreading it out, it should be better.

mysteryman Have any idea when you're gonna need the mirror site? I'm up to 650MB now.
Jun 3rd, 2003 11:56 PM
Mockery Thanks, I like the new boards too. And yeah, mock mail was great but that damned company had to turn shitty and start trying to charge people up the ass. :/
Jun 3rd, 2003 11:40 PM
mysteryman sounds good, by the way, the new message boards look nice

I havent been around in a long time....still missing my i-mockery e-mail though That shit was nice.
Jun 3rd, 2003 09:43 PM
Mockery Cool, maybe you could mirror some of the mp3s when they're ready then. I might email or private message ya once we have them ready. Thanks.
Jun 3rd, 2003 08:40 PM
mysteryman I've got a 500MB hosting plan through PowWeb....

Jixby Phillips So THATS why you were taking your sweet ass time to reply to this thread!!

Cybernetico :/

I fear I can't host anything because I'm dirt poor. Sorry

executioneer Don't confuse the sampling rate with the bit rate. The sampling rate, measured in kilohertz (KHz), is the number of times per second that the original sound source was sampled during recording. CD-quality audio is recorded in stereo at a sampling rate of 44.1 KHz. No matter what bit rate you use to record audio, it will never sound better than the original source. A 44.1 KHz stereo recording converted to MP3 format at a bit rate of 128 Kbps will always sound better than a 24 KHz mono recording converted at the same (or even a higher) bit rate.

I am referring to the sample rate in khz, not the bitrate of an MP3 in kbits. They are two entirely different things.

I am sampling the audio at 24-bit 96khz; an MP3 is 16-bit 44.1khz.
I have the capability of sampling at 32-bit 192khz, but that is just wantonly excessive for an analog signal.

The MP3 will most likely be encoding using a variable bitrate to maximize sound quality while minimizing the file size.

Mockery 50 megs for 40-50 mp3s just isn't gonna cut it. We need someone who doesn't have any big space restraints on their server.
May 30th, 2003 07:45 PM
Cap'n Crunch I can put 'em on my free 50 megs website that I never used.
May 30th, 2003 05:01 PM
Zero Signal Yeah, I'm capping them now and sampling at 24-bit 96Khz so that you can experience the full dynamic range of the phenomenon that is A.L.E.

It's a lot of fun revisiting the days of yore while going through these songs. Acting like fools in Rog's basement and recording it to tape, and spreading it like some horrible affliction. Those were some of the best times ever.

I-Mockery looking for someone to setup a mirror site.

Since we're no longer selling the A.L.E. albums, we've decided to put them all up online in mp3 format in the near future. Many of you haven't heard any of these songs, and we've got 2 full albums worth of comedic tunes and spoken word pieces for you to hear.

Naturally, all of these mp3s will be a strain on the server, so I'm looking for someone who can host mirrors of these mp3s in case the I-Mockery server is too bogged down with traffic. There's gonna be about 40-50 mp3s in total. Whoever can mirror the mp3s will be thanked on the site and if you'd like, I can send ya some free I-Mockery stickers or whatever...

Really glad we're gonna be able to share these songs with you guys though, because "Songs You've Never Heard Before" and "Negative Patient Healthcare Outcome" haven't been available for a long time now. Looking forward to seeing what you guys think of our old comedic tunes.
