custom tracks pointless and a hassle

[slimshady221]

First in order to have seperate songs you have to go into your dashboard and make a playlist for every single song you plan on using.

Second, the music comes straight from your speakers so it doesnt sound like its coming from the stadium at all.. which makes it sound horrible and all "in your face".

Third, you can't edit the track position you have to do it all on your computer before you rip the tracks to your harddrive.

pointless and a waste of time.

That sucks for you man. I will agree that it took about 15 minutes to get my songs all together for ND. It was a pain to scroll through the teams every time.

HOWEVER, my stadium sounds are awesome, they sound genuine, and they add a ton of depth/realism to my game! It should be noted my sounds aren't "Soulja Boy" or other random songs...they are real bands sounds. They are amazing and I want to thank EA for providing this feature.

yeah i dont agree with OP at all. i love hearing the authentic fight songs played by the band. the only time i use real songs is for timeouts. lupe fiasco superstar and N.E.R.D. spaz.

its time consuming and it can definitely think of some ways it can be done better (its actually a lot better on the ps3 but thats not really EA's fault) but i definitely dont think its worthless

One of the best additions to the game. Takes a little work but it was well worth it BIG TIME.

as far as itunes is concern, i wasted 2 cd b4 i figure out how to do it.


1. go to perferences, which is found under the file menu drop down or under edit menu drop down

2. once in preferences select the ADVANCED TAB

3. then select the BURNING TAB

4. under BURNING TAB, you will have 3 choices under DISC FORMAT.

5. make sure you select DISC FORMAT option "Audio CD". DO NOT SELECT MP3, this is what i did b/c of all the MP3 talk but just make sure AUDIO CD is selected. as far as the "gap" and "sound check" and "cd text" options those dont matter.

6. now just burn your cd as you normally would, place it in your xbox and you will have the "RIP CD" option available.


****
**** If you right click, then slect get info or if you go thru the file menu to edit song( you know where you can change the title, or artist, or album name). If you select the "OPTIONS TAB", when see a setting for "START & STOP TIME". if you edit or cut songs by using time, when you burn cd it will only burn the edited part.

for example i wanted to use only chorus part of "enter sandman" for stadium sound. I change the start time to "1:34" then the end time to "1:52" on the burn cd it only has that 30 sec clip. I put 51 clips or soundbites onto on cd. now make sure you reset start and stop times after burning cd. Or whenever you listen to, download(ipod), or play that song it will keep that same start & stop time

I agree with you completely; it is a hassle, but worth it for me.

What's wrong with this? It's not random at a Georgia game (just ask Auburn fans what happened after that song came on)... however, thanks to the PA staff tha song has lost its uniqueness.. and yeah and when the band started playing it

People have been complaining about those songs sounding too much like they came out of normal speakers...they don't fit in with the sound of the game. All of my sounds are done by the ND marching band so they flow with the game very well. Hope that makes sense.

Then we are playing a different game because this feature adds ton to the game, and its not pre-determined. You as the user can put ANY SONG in that you want, hows that for flexibility and atmosphere?
