[ffx]

Hi, can I use the free synths/emus made by The Usual Suspects?

Is Panagement allowed? Headphone-specific mix?

Yes. It's allowed. Though I can't recall if there's a chorus in it. If so, don't use that part unless it's your "to 11 effect".

It's difficult - where they rely on roms which are not freely available (legally) they would not be suitable for this challenge.

I think in the context of "freely" available, Richard is right here. Best err on the conservative side.

Thanks! If I do use it it'll only be for the positioning features. Just to confirm, that would be ok. And the headphone mix?

I think Soundcloud automatically chops a little time from the front and end of tracks. You might want to add a little silence at the beginning and end.
