K… what I want you to do is go through your folder of songs you’ve composed in Renoise, find 1 or more complete songs that have a good composition but a shitty mix, render them, convert to mp3, and post 'em here. I want complete songs… preferably ones you like, but are just disappointed with the mixdown.
First place prize
The use of your winning track into a mixing/mastering competition I will be holding on these boards at the begining of March… which you will be judging to determine who’s produced the best mix + master of your track!
Second place prize
A less spectacular “byte-remaster” … I will pull off one of my controversial (often hated, sometimes loved) mastering (read: often practically a remix) jobs on your track … with the added stipulation that I get to use the before/after in my online portfolio
Both winners will have to send me rendered multitracks in .flac format, so be prepared for that inevitability.
I think anything I wrote before I got my laptop and Renoise 2.1 came out will easily fit into this category (although my programming isn’t/wasn’t amazing either) so sure I can enter something
So how many songs are we allowed to enter? Just went through mine and found a few I still have all the plugins for (a fair few used Waldorf D-Pole which you can’t get any more but I liked the filter and the overdrive on it.)
OK gone through my old tracks from when I was using a desktop that never felt powerful enough for me to do much real mixing (or maybe I was just too lazy!)
First one uses dBlue’s glitch and was written with a different version so doesn’t sound quite right. May be worth removing entirely…
