One Synth Challenge #170: Octasine by Joakim Frostegård (exponent1 Wins!)

[Impedance Music]

Voted, but I will probably revisit it tomorrow. The overall quality is pretty high, some tracks even go into the incredibly high range! Well done everyone!

I am facing the same problem as phankiejankie303, I answered three comments on my SC and I was blocked.... So I wrote them down in a text document and will post them in the next few days.

Also, here are my presets:

Since my percussion is layered, I added a midi file for the kick and the snare as well as a text document with the effects + settings used. I hope it's somewhat helpful

I'm guessing someone at soundcloud made a list of common "spammer" words. And there probably wasn't a lot of thought put into it...
So maybe avoid using common music terms like "track" repeatedly, etc. Maybe.

"We have spam detection systems in place that will block users that are posting large numbers of similar or identical comments in a 24 hour period, to people who haven't recently interacted with them. Why? Because this sort of behavior directly violates our Community Guidelines.

We can’t remove these blocks sooner than they are set to expire and users with Next Pro accounts don’t receive preferential treatment. We recommend making each comment unique to the person you're contacting, or trying to cut down on the total number of comments you make in a day."

I made 4 comments in a row that contained "ping pong delay" without issue fwiw. I guess that's just not on the list. All four people I had previously commented on though.

DoctorBob has voted and commented as much as he can, Soundcloud notwithstanding!

I decided to listen and vote this time around. Which should read: I voted. I liked Octasine and have been in contact with the developer a little bit, but didn't get a track I was happy with (a rough thing was posted on Discord at one point). I've tried to comment, but apparently SoundClod only lets me comment 3 times per 24-hour period, so I'll try to add the queued up comments I have but might get sidetracked/lose interest. The more time passes, the more I hate SoundClod. There were a few tracks I would have probably bumped into the 2 category, but felt generous, so quite a lot of 4's this time around. I haven't been around much lately, but still, if anyone wants constructive feedback, feel free to message me.

Cheers and good luck everyone!

Voted and commented on all entries, (what the hell SoundCloud, are you
loving me?! LOL)

BTW I continue to love immensely the inharmonicity of Methylation Plague
and many other FM spiced tracks from this month.

I was limited to comments on Soundcloud to 2 or 3 a day as well, so I couldn't comment on all tracks like I wanted. Pro doesn't have the limits.

Are you sure? I don't read anywhere that Pro SC is less limited on comments, but maybe...

When Soundcloud didn't let me post a comment, I just tried posting the same comment over and over until it worked. It might be incidental traffic issues or something, but I technically didn't have any issues metaphorically pounding the comment into place, lol
