Pulsewave Kick.Snare and Control Flow is like if the Superfriends AND Justice League united to kick ass

I don't think I've ever used a Pulse kick that wasn't a sweep

God this tour will crush so hard

Seriously though the most fun, at least to me, is throwing a bunch of commands and seeing what sounds you can get. Try looping a pattern of notes in LSDJ or any tracker and just throw random commands while it loops - youll be surprised how just changing a few values can make something really unique

Yo there's nothing wrong with asking how to get a certain sound and people use each other's instruments all the time without "being looked down upon," it just sometimes looks a little silly to ask because it's like asking "how do i get Slash's guitar tone" (which I still don't know, hmu)

The centered instrument in the intro sounds like a tabled octave jump. Throw some 0C's on dat bitch
The other instrument just sounds like a pulse panned left and right, lemme hear u say Oxx

The reason your instruments may sound different is because many things factor into the instrument settings, like the Tempo of your track will affect the tables

But the real thing is: you only have a few commands, a couple waveforms*, three positions of panning**, and 15 steps of volume***, so fuck around with random shit-you wont break anything and you may come up with cool sounds that other people will wonder how the hell you did them too!

OMG due I love your stuff!

Anyways, thanks for the advice and I'll try out HFF!

Haha thank you! HFF is a command that stops the song. It helps me take a break when I'm trying too hard to get a certain sound wink

Super rad that chipzel shared the data!

When all else fails though, I personally like to throw a big HFF in one or two of my patterns for a great overall thick sound

Exactly!

No harm done here on the forum. I think you honestly are making the right decision if you just go directly to someone like that for this, especially if its an old associate. Don't let a couple of unexpected posts on a forum (mine included) discourage you but of course many people are going to voice their equal yet differing opinions on the topic

Just find a good musician and make an offer.


Could also definitely do this

It's not just about the length or number of notes, this is audio for branding.

i think the implied exclusive licensing that goes with creating a logo sound, allowing them to use repeatedly use it for multiple projects, is ridiculous for $20. But even then, the contest is spec-based which is a whole different kind of problem for all parties concerned, including the company
