Antedote - New Track!
Let us hear you!
Hi Manix
Sick track! I'd say this is probably your cleanest/most professional sounding track so far actually. And don't worry, it's consistent with the others - fits right in with your sound. The kick drums is very well placed and crafted in this track so it sits perfectly in the mix, which arguably is the most important part of a track like this.
Great synths and drums. I don't know how euphoric you like your music to become but maybe have a section which is pure bliss, as a nice contrast between the heavy pounding bits?

Bonus Granular Synthesis Tutorials

Thanking you. Granular synthesis has always been a fave of mine too, but i have to admit i never really got to grips with how it worked - just played around. So this will help me hugely. Will watch later today!

Depending on what you want to do, and accepting that generally, you can do everything on one DAW that you can do another - that being said, having used FL extensively for years, then switching to Ableton, that Ableton is infinitely better than FL in a plethora of ways. Namely;
Recording - far easier and actually better monitoring I'd say
Creativity - workflow is supposedly easier on FL but once you get your head round drum racks and such on Ableton, you have far more flexibility
Max for Live - insane amount of amazing stuff
Stock - Ableton's stock plugins are often as good as third party ones - FL not so much.
Collaborating - even if your using the same DAW as your collaborator, its useless if they're using loads of plugins that you don't have. I'm unsure if FL has it but Ableton's freeze feature gets you round this pretty handily - as long as you're accepting you can't change anything on said tracks

Nice - excited for Granulator 3 after watching your new Ableton 12 preview vid. I've always loved that synth - it and Paulstretch are the gods of ambient music.
Sometimes I will write a nice little piano melody, then stick it in a granulator and extended it as much as possible - and you have Brian Eno-eqsue ambient track almost instantly.
Super fun genere to make, especially if you like meditating like me, and want to create custom soundscapes for yourself. 
tut/breakdown on Big Room House "Festival Bangers"
Member Content Requests
Hardstyle and Big Room have always fascinated me as they seems to be huge in Europe & The US, but not in my native UK - I feel like i'd be hard pressed to find a venue or festival that plays exclusively that stuff so I'm quite unfamiliar to it. Is this referring to Martin garrix and Avicii? Or something else?

Synth Sound Problems
General Producer Chat
[quote="manixdj"] Think I found the answer, it was an LFO that was linked to the filter and using a square wave to oscillate the filter, hence the reason for the on/off nature of the High Pass…..I think!! Seems to have cured it, though I am not 100% sure I fully understand how that works…so want to try and get my head around it for my own understanding. If I do, I will share! [/quote]
Ah, glad you found the culprit. If it was Square LFO, that might explain why its so harsh - perhaps change the LFO shape to a sine, so its much smoother?
