Want to try out your skills in other contests / competitions /challenges?

• DiHalt Demoscene competitions
• Indaba - Has a mix of popular and indie artists with various contests like remixing and song writing. Some people from OSC have had success here.
• KVR Mix Challenge (see stickies) - Who can mix a song the best (Without adding extra recordings /musical additions)? Each person starts out with the same stems.
• Music Cafe (KVR, see stickies) - A thematic monthly competition. Use recording, real instruments, synths and samples.
• RemixComps - An aggregator for remix contests from a variety of artists and genres (mostly EDM) - indie and popular.
• Soundevotion (SDCOMPO) Competition - Even longer running than the OSC, the SDCOMPO is even more niche in that you must use a tracker, and set of specific effects. Great community.

If I didn't suck at doing these I'd probably do this one. One of the best free synths that I own.

Oh well, need to know when to walk away in order to avoid more disappointment and frustration.

Have fun with this one guys. It is an amazing synth. I still can't believe it's free.

[ATN69]

I tested it before but I never used it for real in any project

[z.prime]

This one sounds analog phat. How could I resist!?

Go on, go on, go on...
It's more fun when more people enter, especially characters such as your good self

Most of us have to accept that there are other people with more talent/skill/experience/magic-fairy-dust/ability to produce music that people like/etc than us...

I mean, it is kind-of about the winning, but it is really about the taking part, apologies for the cheesy cliche... Ain't it true here though?

I dunno, no intent to hassle you mate, you do what you want, of course, not my business. I just felt like I wanted to encourage you to participate if your reason for not doing so is that you don't score well. That sucks as a reason to not play, imho There are no 'winners' without 'losers'

This is such a great community of people from my limited experience of it so far - if you would like to play - then maybe just play - to heck with the results

(Sorry if this is not appropriate, best of intentions )

Great choice! Every OSC with a u-He synth has amazing tracks. Not having to struggle with programming goes a long way towards better creativity and production -- last month is a good example. The tracks are OSC level good -- but I get a sense that there were a lot of creative compromises due to the troubles with Helm. I certainly gave up before I should have due to the frustrations. Not to dump on Helm -- it's an interesting and good sounding synth, but I really believe when you have software that is elegant and programmed really well, which is typical of U-he products, it allows you to creatively reach further.

I'm so in on this.

Tyrell N6 is one of my go to synths. Sounds amazing and is a pleasure to work with. Plus I'm finally somewhat unpacked from moving and not totally busy. It's on!

Lucky you, I'm moving in a few days, it will trickle down to many further days!

Really good choice. This one sounds amazing! Can't wait to hear all the tracks.

Just so everybody knows...I am working on this one. I had to. U-he is probably the top synth maker out there. About the only thing I don't own is Hive and I'm sure that's just a matter of time.

I'm not going to kill myself over this track because I know my limitations. Already I'm having the darnedest time trying to get a nice fat kick out of this and that's with 4 tracks. I simply don't know all the tricks that you guys know. I know how to pull up a killer sample in Battery 4, put the proper FabFilter EQ and compression on it and be done with it. But when it comes to synth drums on budget synths, forget it. So I'll do the best I can and accept the low scores.

But I will have fun doing this track and that's all that matters.

Yes. Having fun is all that matters. If making a kick is a problem, write a track that doesn't need one! You're good with melodies and orchestral arrangements, I bet you could make a kick ass track that doesn't have to fall back on a simulation of a drum kit! Write to your strengths.

[z.prime]

Yes, that and the formant filter on this thing is amazing!!

[wagtunes]

Well, this is it. I kept it simple and did what I could with it. My lack of skills made it pointless to spend any more time on it than I did. I had fun doing it. I like it. In fact, I think it's kind of catchy. And as far as I'm concerned, that's all that matters to me.
