Re: SONGWRITING COMPETITION - SWC081 May 2024 - Voting until 01-JUN-2024 23:59 UTC+2/CEST

Hello All, I had some fun making the track this month. I did also figure out that patcher can be used as a sort of modular synth with basic sound waves. It also offers more flexibility in the the effects that I can use instead of being limited to the ones found inside a VST. I am now kind of curious...

Hello All,

Slow month so far, lol. I updated my first post with my final entry as well as details. I also put a link to Drive where I have images of the patcher instances that I created.

Hello All,

I really wanted to tie the first drop into the last so I worked on doing that. Here is the result:

[/quote I think you have made some improvements to an already great track. It builds nicely and flows really well, great clean mix, well done :tu: [/quote Thanks :grin: [/quote Personally I'm still struggling to put something together for this month, I really do not understand modular synthesis at a...

Thanks for the feedback Doc Jon . You are right that I am going for something pretty minimalistic (not strictly minimal per se but inspired by). I tried to apply your feedback and add where I thought it made sense. I didn't end up changing much but I think it does add a little to the progression of ...

PS your 'wiring' screenshot is not visible to me for some reason
I added a Drive link because the embedded link doesn't seem to be working.

I created a transition patch and used it to finish out the track. Here's a screenshot of the 'wiring'. In case the image isn't loading here's a link to it on Drive https://drive.google.com/file/d/1C0e_Ul0amByZdPokGkpGnCo3mBjfGner/view?usp=drive_link https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/91803844689...

Thanks for the feedback Mister Fox. It shouldn't be peaking over -1 but maybe that's the mp3 compression :hmmm:. I've given up on LUFS and will just accept the lack of points there. I don't know that I pushed patcher too hard but I did want to try a few things I had no experience with in using it as...

Hello All, I wanted to post to see if I can get some feedback on maybe where to make some changes. I am mostly happy with my track but I feel like it needs a little something different/extra. I used patcher to create an instrument and while I am familiar with patcher, I don't think I've ever used it...

What exactly distinguishes your "feedback" from online bullying? Glad to know I'm not alone in this. Every track had its strengths. Nope, you're certainly not alone. Every track does have its strengths and one of the better aspects of the community here is that there is a focus on improve...
