Slightly confused, just seen the email for the live stream tomorrow which is announcing the winners for this comp? Thought we had until end of the month? Have I missed something?

Antedote - New Track!
Let us hear you!
Hi All, so as promised, got another track completed. Let me know what you think and most importantly how you feel I am doing!
I am still enjoying the process and learning as always. Really trying to be consistent in my style as I feel it's what I like to listen to and would enjoy at a club or festival. Always try to make them banging but also uplifting a bit too.
Thanks In advance all!

Synth Sound Problems
General Producer Chat
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!
Synth Sound Problems
General Producer Chat
Hi All,
Just refining my next track and there is something weird happening in my Retro Bass sound that I created in Hybrid using a preset. I have linked to the sample below. The issue I have is that there is a very obvious cut in and out at seemingly random points of the notes of high frequency content. It is most notable at -0:09. There is a lot of movement in this sound but there is a very obvious change and I don't like it! I have tweaked the Filter envelope as I thought it may be to do with that, and it is not velocity related as it is normally half way through a note, rather than the Attack or Decay portions......any guidance would be appreciated! I have also included a screen shot of the Synth interface.

First Attempt at a Dance Track
Let us hear you!
Hi Tone, nice work on this. It is structured really well and has great progression and continuity in my opinion. All the elements seem to fit well together. Only slight issue is I'd say the mix isn't quite right. Everything's seems to be in your face throughout so perhaps think about your mix priority and tone (sorry no pun intended!!) down some elements n favour of others shining through.
Being an amateur myself, take my critique with the salt it deserves but overall I like it, great work!

Hey @manixdj - I really like the track, and its a great sounding production/mixdown as well. Did you ever release it or send out as a demo?
[/quote] Hi Simon, I didn’t ever release this, always start the process of making some of my tracks available on streaming services via SoundCloud but it’s such a cumbersome process I end up putting it down for a while whilst I sort out the artwork etc….. I saw your other thread on this, I’d be happy to learn more about the project and how I could contribute to that with my tracks.
Thanks for the positive comments too, appreciate it.
