 Hello Online Sequencer! It's been nearly a year since the event committee has formed, and, sadly to say, many of the people who have joined the committee have either left or neglected their obligations for the roles they signed up for. Therefore we have decided to expand out the committee to allow more people who want to help into the committee.

Below are the different Sections of the committee that are taking in new members, if you want to join any of them, make sure to read that section of the committee and reply to this thread stating any parts of the committee that you would like to join.

Please Note! There are some qualifications that need to be met in order to join the committee. These qualifications are meant to ensure that any applications are genuine and that any users who apply will meet their obligations if chosen to be added. The qualifications are:

• You must have a discord account (please include it in your application).
  
• You must have had an account for at least 3 months.
  
• You must have familiarity with Online Sequencer, but most importantly the chat and forum.
  
• Name at least 5 usernames of people on this site that are not already found in this thread and that I know.
  
• You must have a good standing with the OS community and its' staff.
  
• You must be consistently active on this site.

 means you were rejected for not being able to follow requirements or for behavior reasons.

means I would like to consider you for the committee, but due to long periods of inactivity, you have not been accepted. Please demonstrate a frequent attendance in OS.

means I have doubt over your ability to communicate with people in the chat, you should be able to communicate well to create good events. Please demonstrate respectable social behavior. Otherwise, you fit the other rules.

HELLO ONLINE SEQUENCER

My name is Alex and I would like to announce the 1st ever Battle of the Beats. Sign up down below if you would like to participate. Winner will be announced on August 5th


Overview:
The Battle of the Beats is hosted by the OS Event Committee that happens during the month of July. This is a tournament of Online Sequencer composers who specialize in percussion. There are 5 rounds. The first round, round of 16, the quarterfinals, the semifinals, and the finals. Each round except the preliminaries are 1v1 and will have to do a beat challenge to progress. The voting is up to community vote. At the end, we will have a hierarchy of beatmakers.

I have 3 motives on why i want to do this contest. 

Motives:

1. To rank all percussionist users so that we have a general categorization
   
2. If users want to find a percussionist for a collab, they can see the list and figure out who they want to have them help them on their project
   
3. This would be a fun community activity to bring us together
   

• You must not intentionally copy someone else's beat
  
• You must make the beat in the style of the challenge
  
• You must submit a song by the decided deadline. If not, your opponent will automatically win by default and move to the next round

Hello everyone. I would like to address a several things pertaining to yesterday's events. If you don't know what the heck I'm talking about, then it's best that you don't dig too much into it.

For those who are aware of what I'm talking about, this isn't the first time that OS has banned for... long distance relationships.

I can't stop you from having one, but please be aware of what you are getting into, especially if you're underage. What you do can also affect the owners of the platform you're using, in this case, Online Sequencer. As dumb as it may sound, we REALLY don't want this site to shut down because we broke the law. 

 Hello Online Sequencer! It's time to announce the May Monthly Contest!

Summer's almost upon us, so let's cheer up and get ready to finally have some warm weather! This month's theme is to make some happy music!

Committee Notes

Heyo guys. So when I think of happy music,

##1067814
I think of things that make me happy like hanging with friends and jamming. So in this song, I did more acoustic instruments. I find that music box gives it a happy feeling. Major chords will also make your song happy and give it that cheery vibe. Piano left hand arpeggios sound really nice and bright.

But this is my interpretation. Happiness can be brought out in many ways. Let your’s shine through your piece and yeah. Anything can be cheery in a major chord progression. Be creative.

-Alex!
