Re: What have you been listening to?

I've been in a really low place lately so it's pretty much been all Alice in Chains, but I promise I'm not the guy blasting it out the door.

Re: (Psytrance) untitled - looking for feedback

Huge thanks to everyone here who listened and provided feedback and advice, this one made it onto the soundtrack album and got me a free badge to boot! I'm number 23 here, and they had so many submissions this year they had to release a bonus EP. https://defconcommunications.bandcamp.com/album/def-c...

(Drum & Bass) RBM - Unsolved

After binging the new seasons of Unsolved Mysteries, and continuing by watching tons of the old episodes, I was inspired to do a D&B version of the theme song and had a ton of fun trying to capture the eerie atmosphere of the original music and show, as well as frustration trying to transcribe the m...

Re: NORD VPN

I used both Astrill and a home-rolled solution using V2Ray when I lived in China, they didn't really affect things like Reason or Ableton in any way. I wouldn't bother with it unless you have a real need to bypass geo-restrictions or content-blocking firewalls though.

It should come as no surprise that I've been tweaking it even more, just slight things now, I'm pretty happy with it though, thanks everyone! Sounds a lot better to me and the kick has a lot more presence. Perhaps still a tab lowpassed for my personal taste but it is miles better. Cool tune It's act...

Re: (Psytrance) untitled - looking for feedback

Thanks all! Very valuable feedback here and I'll be putting it all to use to perfect this track :puf_bigsmile: I feel the overall sound is a tiny bit muddy-ish. It just needs brightening up Perhaps it needs more mid-hi range. The Kick is dull it needs more hi end/punch, it has boom or Dummmm Dummmm....

(Psytrance) untitled - looking for feedback

I'm working on a submission for this year's DEF CON soundtrack, and am doing another psytrance track this year. Looking for feedback on the mixing and content, but it's nearing completion. I think I need to turn the bass synths up a little, and the 303 line needs more compression and EQ because it g...

No kidding. I have a few flanger REs and VSTs and none of them really hit the spot until this one. It was an instant buy for me, it's stupid how good it is.

This is wicked, good pick for a song and from an excellent album. Love the heavy guitar . I'd love to have an inside line to some stems and do my own remixes from jilted generation-era prodigy but I haven't had much luck

only needs a few minor tweaks in my opinion to some of the top end elements (high frequency content). Thanks for the heads up! I have pretty severe tinnitus so my high frequency hearing is pretty messed up and I tend to miss this and have to go back from time to time to fix botched EQ. I gave it th...

Re: What did you just buy yourself?

It's just a little Epiphone SG Special. I've been practicing on a Yamaha acoustic for quite some time and got this one for my birthday. Finally, I don't have to rely on samplers for the guitar sounds I want!

Anyone else feel this way? No. I spent a lot of time learning about synthesis and understanding how to get the sounds I want or like so I don't have to rely on presets if I don't want to. Outside of that I've collected a stupid amount of refills over the years and if I do want things that are quick...
