2023-08-07 19:10 · 2023-08-07

Can we use the effects? How to submit the track?

AWENiX · reply
2023-08-07 19:13 · 2023-08-07

Also do we have to leave the remix perms on? It's just there's snapshots already, and I want to disable them to prevent my track to be stolen.

rai dont you flex us with turning one tonematrix into an entire track again

we'll explode if you do it with THREE

2023-08-08 03:35 · 2023-08-08

Hmmmmmm
Should I do this?

anonymous user
2023-08-08 17:01 · 2023-08-08

Awww man...
you guys call this a challenge :(
The real challenge is even figuring out what genre i wanna make or if i even have ideas for a track by the time the deadline is due
:(((((

anodyne · reply
2023-08-08 18:43 · 2023-08-08

YES

anodyne · reply
2023-08-08 18:44 · 2023-08-08

@naswalt can i still submit challenges after the deadline, and they just wont count?

I²eye · reply
2023-08-08 22:11 · 2023-08-08

yes, i definitely gotta try this out as well

2023-08-08 22:12 · 2023-08-08

If I wasn’t experiencing burnout rn I’d partake

naswalt · reply
2023-08-09 00:16 · 2023-08-09

I'm pretty sure the actual submit page will be shut down for this challenge, so your track won't show up as a part of the challenge.

2023-08-09 00:36 · 2023-08-09

honestly straightforward
but i already know how it'll go

2023-08-09 01:55 · 2023-08-09

why is there a 4 minute limit on the duration for submissions?
i just finished my entry and went to submit it, and apparently my track is 40 seconds too long
if there must be a limit, i feel like it should be at least 5 or 6 minutes

Kepz · reply
2023-08-09 02:21 · 2023-08-09

i assume the track length limits are to help with judging

2023-08-09 06:36 · 2023-08-09

What a fun challenge! :D Enjoyed making the entries. Can't wait to hear everyone else's and the see the next challenge!

JayFK · reply
2023-08-09 07:22 · 2023-08-09

Yes! Really fun! I seem to have paid too little attention to the Tonematrix so far.
All entries are sooo good!
@naswalt : Cool idea!!!

Luxx · reply
2023-08-09 14:41 · 2023-08-09

just do

2023-08-09 16:08 · 2023-08-09

This should be fun 😂😂

2023-08-10 01:36 · 2023-08-10

question: can we modify that single drum loop i.e. use one drum loop as source material but chopped/pitch bent/stretch etc.?

2023-08-10 05:13 · 2023-08-10

nvm im grinding this tonight

2023-08-10 11:23 · 2023-08-10

I've not been feeling particularly motivated recently, but this is a good excuse to try something different :D

im sorry @-9010-

2023-08-10 13:11 · 2023-08-10

Hmm i might give it a go

2023-08-10 15:11 · 2023-08-10

@naswalt I've looked over the rules and would like to clarify some specifics. Quantum and Curve: off-limits, right? Does the drum loop have to be from Newloops? Are we allowed to layer the drum loop or modify it?

2023-08-10 15:57 · 2023-08-10

@moderator

naswalt · reply
2023-08-10 15:59 · 2023-08-10

Not off limits!
You can use whatever drums you'd like, but try to avoid anything melodic (like a tuned 808 for example) I chopped up my drums in the example, so feel free to edit yours, but keep it simple and tied to one audio track. We're trying to keep those tone matrices the focus ;)

naswalt · reply
2023-08-10 15:59 · 2023-08-10

hell yeah, that's the spirit!

naswalt · reply
2023-08-10 16:00 · 2023-08-10

oh shit, you're doing a rock track with these?

naswalt · reply
2023-08-10 16:01 · 2023-08-10

Yeah, that's what I did in the example. the whole goal is to make the tone matrix the focus, so keep the drums to a single track (even if it has multiple audio layers lol)

anodyne · reply
2023-08-10 16:04 · 2023-08-10

i have a demo for one
it's quite interesting

It's honestly kinda funny that an official contest is centered around tonematrix
Makes me happy to know the idiots like myself have been forcing themselves to use this thing for years entirely free with zero rewards and or recognition beyond masochism caused by the suffering :3

anonymous user · reply
2023-08-11 17:58 · 2023-08-11

what if the tonematrix is the tuned 808 alongside a melodic super trap delayed snare 💀

Guy · reply
2023-08-11 18:15 · 2023-08-11

That would be cray cray🤯

2023-08-11 19:47 · 2023-08-11

presses submit
wrong track
oh the button is on top of the correct track not bottom
gonna need that track removed please

anonymous user · reply
2023-08-11 21:39 · 2023-08-11

i deleted mine to remove it but its still counting it

a-records · reply
2023-08-11 22:31 · 2023-08-11

Hey, it should be possible now. Notice: If users submit more than two, we will only consider the first two on the list.

2023-08-11 23:04 · 2023-08-11

the covers are the best part of almost every track imo

2023-08-11 23:08 · 2023-08-11

meanwhile i jus have a red cover (for sexy album in development)

2023-08-13 21:44 · 2023-08-13

Can I make my own drum loop by recording my voice? Like, beatboxing or something? Or do I need to use an actual drum loop?
