Edit post feature

I noticed after I post in any forum and edit once or twice the edit feature disappears. Is it my phone/computer, or did the moderators do that on purpose?
I noticed a typo on my post and now I can’t fix it.

Re: [sick & twisted brutal techno] Rising Night Wave - Gamad [finished]

That intro beat goes hard! Then the hats add a pretty killer vibe. How did you make that? It sounds like a song you would hear in an underground German S&M club with people fucking everywhere on ecstasy and red & blue & green & yellow strobe lights.

Re: synthpop track ( vocoder)

Kinda like like a chill mix between Daft Punk and Crystal Castles. The vocals should be louder than the music. Really nice sounds. Did you write the beat or is it a loop? Sounds really cool.

Re: (HipHop/Rap) "WAR" Completed with Vox

Actually a really good rap song and impressive lyrics. But I feel like the music needs more changes and energy like the beat needs to be punchier and don’t run the choir vocals thru the whole song. And I would cut the 1st chorus at the beginning in half to just tease it for after the first verse. Ot...

Re: Where do I put VSTs and presets on Mac?

Oh and does anyone know if plugins should have their skin instead of the generic grey "VST plugin" on every single one, or is that just how they are for everyone and it can't be changed? Sure would be nice if the icon had the picture of the actual plugin *sigh*

Where do I put VSTs and presets on Mac?

Guys I need help. I'm pretty much brand new to the whole VST game - total noob. So I recently bought Serum (on Splice rent-to-own). Here's the deal: 1) aside from the Splice app needing to stay open to use Serum until I pay it off, I have no idea where it is on my actual computer 2) I bought the Wav...

Re: What do you suck at in Reason?

For me it’s EQ, compression, and getting the stereo field right. These days I’m convinced to strip everything to mono, pan, and then add stereo fx or double-tracking where needed because I feel like leaving bass, synth, etc as stereo the way the preset is just muddies up everything like a blurry was...

Re: Softube gone from the shop?

Well actually I won’t miss their prices either but I do have the Tsar and Saturation Knob. And I play guitar and often use the Softube Amp so my concern is RS will eventually remove Softube altogether like they did with Line 6 which really messed up my songs because I had my tones locked in.

Not sure about "best presets" but I can send you a few of my patches and some free ones I have collected over time if you want them. Helpful to reverse engineer them to learn.

A few weeks ago I got Serum and now I’m looking for the best presets but also need to learn how to sound design for once. Serum is so amazing! All these years I’ve been using RS synths and now Serum got me into VSTs. I went nuts on the Waves sale last week but OMG I got some killer new toys! Does an...

How much was the course? I think that would do wonders for my attempted skillz lol. PHAT low end. Dope beat. The ahhs are nice until it goes for too long. I think some changes would benefit. Then again I understand this was an practice run on what you learned. Production is almost flawless. I think ...

Re: [electronic] Rising Night Wave - Chasing Eruption [finished] [my 1st SC song from 2013 :D]

"Less is more" is a #1 statement in our line of work as musicians/producers. It's so easy to lose sight of the big picture thinking another plugin will enhance so it's best to often bypass everything, redo the levels and EQ cuts and really strip down to what each element actually needs. Most of the ...

The Dolby surround sound intro! Right away it starts like you're taking me on an adventure. The build up is exciting. Beat hits and I didn't expect that funky bass and 70s chord changes but it's actually how it's supposed to be. This is GOOD elevator EDM I would say lol. Or like the most quality hol...

Sounds to me like you're on a whole different level of production I only wish I could achieve. You make it seem easy. Although it's repetitive, it's the perfect vibe for focus music. Do you ever do vaporwave? I bet you'd be really good at that too.

Re: [TECH HOUSE] BARE KNUCKLES

I never thought to pan claps far out like that. Groovy jumping beat. The zaps add another dimension. Awesome flavors of sounds and you made sure to keep it interesting with all the rises and falls and changes. What drum pack are you using?
