Hope you like it. If not, also fine. Constructive criticism most welcome. If you rip it apart tell me how I might improve it.

That piano sound @1:06 is quite good.

Thank you bh9090. It's not bad is it? I think in context and with a bit of reverb (plus actual playing it into the PCR800 and then tweaking timing in Live) it does the job.

Truepianos is still better for realish piano imho, but when realish sounds are embedded with so many electro-sounds, they ten to sounds more real than they are soloed. Plus the church organ sound kinda sets up an expectation.

There's my 2c. worth. Now to check on other subs...

The downloadable file is unchanged = how you uploaded it.

So if you upload a 16bit WAV file, and you enable download, people get a WAV file?

Exactly.
In any case, i prefer a 320 kbps MP3 file, less space in the hard disc and not much differences in a normal speaker system as i think the most of us have.

Have a nice day

We worked with 320kbit mp3 encoded with the super high quality setting and I think we will continue to do just that.

Have a nice day too m8!

Ever since we started with SoundCloud there have been complaints about poor sound quality from the player so everything helps, but i think the biggest factor to get good sound is to leave some headroom (not max out the levels), try for yourself.

@Emanuele: Welcome here. No effects except a sidechain compressor will be appreciated by the purists here.

Two more weeks.. let's hope we can come up with a track for this month!
We have been busy with making another one synth track, but not for this contest though.

Top sounds and demo track. I wish kHs One would have a fully functional demo like Twin 2 so we could put it on for a challenge, with it's easy GUI and good sound it would be popular.

All the functionality is there in the demo, but it does have a nag sound overlay which may complicate things.

(Edit: That said, we'd love to participate in the OSC if we can find a way.

The nag sound is kind of funny, but yeah, when you start using a few instances at the same time, it get's annoying.

Is it fully functional? I never found any info about the demo on your site so figured there was a not so nice reason for that, and a nag sound explains it.

But would be great if the demo was usable and fully functional, would definitely put it on here if that was the case.

*Mental note: Make the demo version more visible*
