Would VST FX be allowed, or is that barred?

VST FX is also allowed, since Reason supports that platform I see no reason to leave those out.

Awesome! Thanks so much! Great work on this synth, I'm having a blast with it!

Here is my song.

Noplan, this is really great. Did you build your patches from scratch or use some of the existing patches that come with the synth?

Thanks. I used the existing patches. I added some effects to them.

Man, this is awesome! It just BLEEDS 80s! I was basically channeling Kung Fury for my entire thing. No more time to mess with it though so here's my submission!

Preemptively posting this here. Haven't officially entered. I have my reasons.

Are you using the CrapRE by any chance?

Nope, it's a combo of the VHS Audio Degredation Suite in Reaktor, and XLN's Retro-Color. And didn't use them subtly intentionally.

great entries so far here is mine

Amazing. Sounds like a legit track from that time, on an OLD tape mix that's been played to death because of how great the music is/was!

Hearing great stuff here!

Here's my entry !

This is my submission. I'm kind of a beginner, so comments are appreciated.

Are live instruments allowed? Like guitar? Or is that considered a non drum “sample”.
