["Z3ta-Crispy ArP"Hardstyle]

Alright.

The main synth sounds really weak. You need to assign them to a mixer channel, boost the highs with an EQ, put on a little bit of distortion. Turn off the delay and reverb on the VSTSs and then add them in the effects line. Make sure the reverb has a long decay and a large room setting.

You might want to layer the melody another octave higher to give it more power aswell.

Try adding in more atemospheric effects to like reverb kicks explosions builds reverse explosions etc etc.

Z-Tone responds:

yeah your right the main lead is but...
if it sounds weak then its the mids i should:P
and im not using FL studio if you think that:D
so everything is already a mixerchannel and yeah i dont use the vsti built in effects
i use more other vsts such as camel space and so forth
long decays and large rooms are not always right
it depents very much on what sound you are using and other sounds in the mix
the sound i wanted there was a more softer yet hard enough to call hardstyle to kinda be in sync with the soft harp
but yeah there are no golden rules about either leads of eqing and mastering

what you need to do is check out my other songs both on this account and hotplurplegnome:P
i have more defined tunes than this one..:P

but yeah thanks for the review:D

[[Hard Trance] Light]

It's alright

I do not like the clap pattern at all in the background.

ElectroLord99 responds:

thats nice. i wanted it like that

[Techno Wabbit]

Hehe

Its not horrid, it sounds like midi and mp3 at the same time O_o

carborundum responds:

that was the effect I was going for mainly cause of the choppness of the insruments and the destortion, hmm did not work as well as I hoped though the score reflect about the same as what I would have given to someone else.

[Rusted Toys]

This track is amazing.

This track is amazing, it was great before the drums came in and then even better when they did.

I'm working on a full length game right now (not flash) and I would really love your permission to use this song in it. I also would like to know if your interested in producing more tracks?

Anyways great music keep on making more :)

Mo-Tech responds:

I'm glad you enjoy the track :) Feel free to use it however you see fit.

I'll PM you about more tracks.

Hardstyle yes!

Yoshii responds:

thanks! plenty more to be uploaded in the near future. :D

[Trance Complete]

Well

It sounds like all basic fl sounds, try making your own. I think the kick could be a little louder as well. Its not bad though. It is a little bit boring for my taste.

TheBellmaker responds:

Actually, I used a flanger on the first lead you hear. And I also put a delay and reveerb on som eother intruments. Everything else was from a pack. I updated the music so that the kick IS louder and there are a couple variations + a solo.
