Cheers for the update fix Matthias, also possible for this?

Also nice to see entries adjusted for Dynamic Range Evo2slo.

Cheers for the submissions guys, and a welcome here Pedalsteeldrummer.

And good you're all including DR numbers. Would be nice to get this established as a regular practice so going to harp on about it for a bit more..

YOOOO! Its Loris

Really wanted to make a heavy metal/rock song and Retrologue was really compliant with the sounds I wanted. Didn't really push it to the limit because its not my favorite synth ever, but I had fun using it. When I first made the song the dynamic range was like 3, you know what I say to that: F#&@ dynamic range! But I fixed it, now its 9, and my song sounds better, guess Ill have to live with that.

FL STUDIO:

12 instances of Retrologue, 1 sampled

FX used: 2 Fruity limiter, 3 Modern Amplifier, 2 Fruity Multiband Compressor, Fruity EQUO.

I dont really get to play with native FL Studio FX, so if any of these are unacceptable to the OSC please let me know and I will gladly remove them. Anything to get my DR back down into low threes

Thank you all for listening and for making good FREE music I can listen to. OSC is my favorite radio station.

another week, another song

sevaztian - Week 37 of 2012

DAW: Cubase 5
Instances of Retrologue: 8
FX: Maximizer from Cubase on the main out channel

DR: 7

So this time I got to do the dynamic range thing. A DR7 is pretty low but the volume of the song also seems pretty low to me still. With a number as low as that I would expect a higher volume. Or does the song sound like a DR7 kinda volume?

V'ger · Post by **V'ger** » Mon Sep 17, 2012 10:27 pm

It's low'ish but don't forget DR is basically just the difference between the soft and loud parts. You can still get everything louder without affecting the DR. (for ideas, check out the very nice 'Thinking inside the Box' EQ tutorial)

Below is a reminder about some suggested numbers from Pleasure Music, but feel free to ignore DR values for what sounds good to you. As someone said in another thread there are no rules in music. Would still appreciate it if you all included the DR number though just to keep a certain awareness on the loudness war.

the trick is getting it louder without affecting the DR

i have a long way to go before i will be able to do good mixing and mastering.

I think this guy can get 0.0 DR easily LOL.

Insane.

Have a good day

It is a great punk-song!

Thank you very much, I already thought of a thousand ways I can improve it. I wish it could rock harder.

@loris : the rules allow you to modify it before the deadline, if you so desire.
