After listening to my track back to back with @davi-dj's, I realize that I screwed up my mix royally. In direct contrast to his Winter Solstice, my track sounds too quiet despite beeing over-compressed (thus killing all dynamics), and muffled. I guess it's time to take up reference tracks for mixing and mastering, as well as to invest in my monitoring situation, which is, I'm afraid, far from ideal...
Anyway, I choose AudioThing's Outer Space as my prize.

Ooops, sorry! I guess I was typing at the same time as you (took me a while). I didn't want to snatch it from your nose. Drop me a PM, if you would like me to choose something different.briefcasemanx wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 8:26 pm Congratulations everyone! Great tracks all around. I'll take AudioThing Outer Space if no one else does.

In case anyone is interested I've uploaded another longer version of my track mainly with more percussion intro + outro because I tryed to mix with another song and I've seen it was necessary to have more space to mix.
Also you can see me happy with the prize in the photo

As good as it was (and one of the best by my votes), if you keep making tracks, you're very likely to surpass this! That's human nature. (I expect that Beethoven's 10th symphony would have been his best if he finished it...)Old_Progger wrote: ↑Tue Jan 18, 2022 8:07 pmMany thanks! I'm not sure I'll ever manage to surpass this.

Congrats to the winners for their fine work, as well as to everyone who entered! I sure learn a lot from doing an OSC. Figuring out how to synthesize sounds from scratch is a great exercise, and it helps to reveal the possibilities and limitations of a synth. The only reason I haven't entered for the last few years is the time that is takes to complete. This time, sound design + composition/arranging + mixing took me about 40 hours, which can be a challenge in itself depending upon what else in going on in one's life. But I guess it gets quicker to complete after doing it a few times? Besides figuring out how to shape sounds, choosing and using stock/free plugins instead of the usual ones took more time. (Although this can save money in the long run!)

Yeah I'm with you with the time aspect. I still have zero idea how anyone gets it done in a few hours.Immanencer wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 9:29 am Congrats to the winners for their fine work, as well as to everyone who entered!
