My honest opinion of News at Live at the moment is that, yes, it is a great concept, but doesn't sound all that great. It's a RPC jingle followed by a guy who keeps blowing into his bloody microphone - now that is unproffesional.
Sort out how it sounds, sort out the presenter and sort out what sorta news prioritises the other, and then you'll have something sounding decent. I'll see if I can digout a track of the ClubHabbo Community News Sheet - now that sounded good.
Yes Olleh and the difference between the service offered on the site you where fired from is that they paid a producer to compile the clips each and every day and from what I can remember it cost so much that they couldn't continue paying for the service after a week or two.
So in all honesty to make a comparison is a tad pathetic, in my honest opinion.
Please remember that we are very much in the testing stage, we're experimenting with different aspects in each broadcast.Quote:

I don't care how unprofessional people say it is, Finkelstein's newsreading voice is pure class, someone get the BBC to hire him!
However, he does have a point about the plosive sounds in the microphone, I had a big problem with it when recording my songs. The solution is to hold it further away from your mouth, turn up the input volume and speak louder, then you dont get the rush of air entering the microphone every time you say the letter P or B. Also, I've never heard of the "Pittel Patch" :P. I don't know whether thats an accent thing or something though.
I hope this carries on, I like the concept and the beta sounds great.
I have to agree with Alex Finklestein sounded just like somebody off GMTV or BBC news or something which gave me a bit of a giggle at the time :P
Full respect to Finklestein though for doing it just need to sort out a few minor trivial things and it should be perfect.
He sounded pretty good, well done :)
For those who are interested, check 'http://audio.habboupload.com/1211532445.wav' for a preview of the ClubHabbo News sheet.
Portish, I think you're either posting in the wrong thread/catagory/forum or you've just been hit on the head by something rather big (rather like Olleh's ego). If we wanted to hear the Clubhabbo news sheet we would've asked because I don't think anyone is interested in hearing a hasbeen system which didn't work for Clubhabbo.Quote:

News on the Radio has been around for a long time, it doesn't give you (or Olleh) the right to post such things.
Ugh, I hate it when fansites start getting ******. It's like kids in a playground screaming "You're gay because er... I'm better!" and well, there's always one more mature kid in a situation like that. You'll never guess who the mature person (or should I say, people) in this situation is/are? GRR Now I'm wound up lol.
Jesus Christ, lighten up. If you read my previous post on this thread, I said I thought it was a good idea and wished Habbox the best luck in it. Ollie said he would try getting a preview of the ClubHabbo News Sheet and since he didn't succeed I posted it on his behalf. Dude, you need to understand people before you have a go at them.Quote:
