Raid
EP1 is back!!1 The casual raid for mains, alts, guild apps, and your little dog too, EP1 believes in two things:
- The internet is srs bsns, but video games shouldn't disrupt your normal life. So we raid on Saturdays; late enough for all to sleep in, but early enough to not disrupt your dinner/evening plans.
- Video games are supposed to be fun!
So with that in mind, I'll be starting up EP1 raids this Saturday, and continuing until real life happens. Anyone can sign up, anyone can roll on gear. I'd love for this to be a 25 man, but we'll run as a 10 man if there isn't enough interest.
Our rules are as follows:
- Show up on time. I don't like PUGs, but I like starting late even less - so I will replace you if you're late.
- Pay attention. No biggie if you're brand new to the content, so long as you listen when instructions are given and learn from your mistakes.
- No QQ'ing. Don't be a dick. We're not Salmon or Kitten, so don't expect us to be - there will probably be a few wipes. This is meant to be a safe place to grow, learn content, gear up, etc.
- Need it, need it. Greed it, greed it. No complicated loot rules here, but I will not tolerate blatant ninjas.
Invites will go out at ~9:30am server to start promptly at 10am server. Be early if at all possible. We're scheduled until 3pm, please plan on staying that late if you sign up. If we aren't going to finish the content by 3 (I doubt we will), a group consensus will be taken 1-2 hours prior about whether or not to run late. If I tell you you're free at 3pm, I want you to be able to plan your life accordingly.
Sign up below - please specify which (or both) you are signing up for, as well as the toon/spec you want to bring.

Vent Normalization
Ardea — Tue, 02/03/2009 - 18:53
If you are on Vent... You should do this!
Vent Normalization makes every bodies voice the exact same volume. In essence, you won't blow your ear's out or have difficulty hearing people.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's how:
- Go to Setup
- Enable Direct Sound
- Select the SFX Button
- Select Compressor and click Add.
- Under Compressor Properties use the following settings
- Gain = Adjust for how loud you want people to be. (I use 15)
- Attack = 0.01
- Release = Around 500
- Threshold = Around -30
- Ratio = 100
- Pre delay = 4.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What the settings do - Copied and pasted from page 8
Gain
How much volume you feed into the compressor. Not really relevant unless everyone is too quiet, then you can turn this up a little; turning it up too much will sound EXTREMELY *%*%ty.
Attack
How fast volume change will happen. example: setting this to 500 means that any-
thing coming in will only be dropped in volume after a half a second. for vent this should
be set as low as possible.
Release
how fast the compressor stops changing things. not really that relevant with vent, setting it around 500 is good for voice material.
Threshold
This sets the point where we actually start changing what?s coming in. Whereas 0 is the absolute loudest you can have for an input, -60 is super quiet. Average users will probably come in somewhere around -25 to -15, with the occaisional few being really quiet, which is why I have this set so low.
Ratio
How much any sound below the set threshold gets compressed and/or modified in the volume department.
If you still want to hear SOME volume variation then set this lower (2-4)... the higher you set it the closer in volume everyone will be.
Pre delay
Mostly just deals with processing; with computer and digital processors they can look ahead a few milliseconds to see what needs to be dropped in volume or changed before it actually comes through the speakers. Highest is ideal.
Thinking of running this at 6:15ish tonight. If anyone is interested sign up.
Need 3 Healers, a tank and some dps.
Clean up From Friday. Lack of interest. We will try again next week. Thanks to all who signed up.
Ok This will be our first Offical attempt. Sign up please to give Vulk and I an idea of who is still interested.
Lack of interest. We will try again next week. Thanks to all who signed up.
Thanks to all for the help last week had lots of fun. Since we still appear to be behind for our 25 man I wanted to throw up this 10 man. Sign up and lets go have a good time.
I just wanted to add that if this does not get off the ground due to lack of interest I would like to turn it into a night of Heroics.
We are going in to finish up as much of Naxx 10 as we can.
