Elcubano (2nd) didn't make a selection yet. You can give this another thought.

If you still want to "pass on the license" after that, I can then "spin the wheel". :thinking:

Thank you for your votes and comments! It was a great challenge once again.
I don’t think I’ll participate to the next one, for the moment I have no idea how to approach all these samples.
If possible, I’d like to choose RealGuitar from MusicLab as the prize.

Alright, before I "spin the wheel"...

:arrow_right: Is there anybody from this month's game that does not want to get a chance for a bonus license?


The pass-on mechanic is not made to "pass on infinitely", so if you state beforehand "I'm good, thank you", this raises the chance for everyone else. Please let us know in a timely manner.

I felt that it was definitely the end of the piece at 5:45. This time I had my eyes closed and couldn't see the waveform. I thought that it was a perfect place to end.

Perhaps just a little bit long, ending at 5:51 would have been perfect.

In terms of composition, I think everything after 5:50 is unnecessary — the piece had a good conclusion before that.

I extended the track beyond this first ending to express that the exploration of the cosmos never ends.

Overall though a wonderful, fitting tribute to Vangelis, great work.
Thanks

Some of the pad elements are a bit phased, and I recommend paying attention to the correlation at the lows and the mids.
A Voxengo Correlometer on the master can be helpful for monitoring this, or I recommend checking out Dan Worrall's SPAN tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZrWMv0 ... DanWorrall (especially the second half).

I will study it. Thanks.

Congrats to the winners! All very worthy to stand on the podium, well done :smile:

Very generous of Paramnesia too to pass on his license to the random draw. Mister Fox, please count me out of the spin so there's more chance for everyone else.

I gave this a bit more than 24 hours, to see who will also "pass on" a possible bonus license..

Not counting the Winners Podium with our 3rd place (@Paramnesia) passing on his license selection, I also know of @Koekepan, @BenjiRage and @Ike H-mope that they're okay with not being on the "Wheel of Names".

As mentioned with post #078 and the mechanic update, I will now put the rest of the participants on the wheel and spin it 5 times. The last name the wheel stops on, will be get the chance to pick up the bonus license.



:arrow_right: The draw went to @Vanilla Puff this month.

Here is the screenshots as proof (the screenshots will be auto deleted in about 2 months)

:information_source: As with the Podium:

Selecting of licenses is handled in public. In order of the name draw (see above), and only if you want to, please select one license/company out of the pool and mention it in this thread, then (important) please get in touch with me (via PM) with your full name, email address and your license selection.

This bonus license offer can not be passed on any further.

Companies that have already been selected: Hollow Sun, Musiclab
