Dear Community!

[[Attachment:1]]

We are back with another contest! We are so happy to work with the incredible people over at [https://playtronica.com/ Playtronica].
If you don't know their weird and wonderful MIDI controllers yet, be sure to check them out. This is definetly not your average controller. Turn human skin, water or flowers into a musical instrument with TouchMe. Play alone or with your friends!
As the area of touch and intensity changes, the sound changes too. 🤝
And it works like a charm in Audiotool!

For this contest we teamed up with them to give you a chance to win their [https://shop.playtronica.com/products/playtron Playtron] and [https://shop.playtronica.com/products/touchme TouchMe] controllers.

Joining the contest is pretty easy:

  • Create an Ambient composition with a minimum duration of 1 min.
  • Make the project open to the public.
  • **Submit **your track in the **comments **below.
  • AND **send a link to performance@playtronica.com **with the subject “Audiotool contest” till 26th of October.

Prizes:

  • Playtronica [https://shop.playtronica.com/products/playtron Playtron]
  • Playtronica [https://shop.playtronica.com/products/touchme TouchMe]

The contest will last for two weeks, beginning now!

We will announce the winner here and on our socials and of course over at Playtronica on the last week of October.

Have fun and good luck!

Yours ❤️ Audiotool

2021-10-15 22:17 · 2021-10-15

Recently I got inspired by Playdead's soundtracks from a game called "INSIDE". I think it's time to recreate something like that... :>

ambience is something i can actually achieve decently with so let's see what i can make of it lol

This looks neat man.... I'll absolutely make an ambient track

2021-10-16 06:35 · 2021-10-16

I guess it's 5 mins. How tf do you make a one minute ambient? What is this a Punk song? XD

Does it have to be 1 min exactly?

2021-10-16 13:47 · 2021-10-16

lol how everyone went Electronic and i went Classical ASMR xD

Kasa · reply
2021-10-16 15:07 · 2021-10-16

I think it means that it can't be less than 1 min. It's really tricky, but I made it for over 1 min. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

2021-10-16 16:52 · 2021-10-16

Finally, great!

2021-10-17 23:24 · 2021-10-17

Just to be sure, once we have submitted our track, is it still possible to edit and republish it before the deadline?

Audial · reply
2021-10-17 23:59 · 2021-10-17

I'm sure it is

2021-10-18 08:05 · 2021-10-18

for people curious on this instrument i'm pretty sure it uses flows of low electricity flowing through objects or people to ultimately read and form into sound waves emitting sound thats what i've gathered from the videos i watched

2021-10-18 08:19 · 2021-10-18

Hope that the level of electricity flowing is lower than the one in an electric fence for cow pasture. Otherwise, it will sound like a rim shot slapping your neck. Not speaking from experience

NeuRotiC · reply
2021-10-18 08:22 · 2021-10-18

lol i'm assuming it will be no more that the normal flow we have pulsing through us now xD

NeuRotiC · reply
2021-10-18 08:26 · 2021-10-18

or possibly its like the potato clock utilising the stored electricity in objects and people

2021-10-18 17:26 · 2021-10-18

just don't let naut see this or the competition will die.

I don't really have a solid plan for this honestly, but either way the studio is giving me the middle finger today

2021-10-19 10:38 · 2021-10-19

I’m gonna have to pass, Ambient is my greatest strength yet my greatest weakness 😬 Eh besides, the chart wasn’t even that great, my mixing still sucks 😮‍💨
But thanks for the offer! Good luck to everyone!

2021-10-19 10:43 · 2021-10-19

Oh yeah keep up the good work with the new interface! I don’t mind if the studio bugs at the moment as long as the new interface ends up looking good! 😁

2021-10-19 12:56 · 2021-10-19

The intention behind these contests is to tighten bonds between all of us. And it's a great way both to challenge yourself and to learn from others. Bottom line, to quote a wise man: "you shall not pass" ;)

the contest is over what

2021-11-01 18:34 · 2021-11-01

Hi everyone, I just received a €20 discount from Playtronica to share with friends.
I hereby declare that each audiotooler is a winner:
http://playtronica.refr.cc/seafoamandthewind
(The offer is valid until the 31st December)
Hope to hear loads of experimentations with their devices in the coming months.
I apologize in advance for spamming the wall of all the participants (:

kodotik · reply
2021-11-01 18:46 · 2021-11-01

even with 20 quid off i still cant afford it lol

but huge respect for giving a discount for the peeps who can afford it :>

thank you mr seafoam sir xd

AWENiX · reply
2021-11-01 20:35 · 2021-11-01

Hmm, does it work with my 50% discount too? xD

Sky · reply
2021-11-01 20:36 · 2021-11-01

Shut up, its dabay were talking about here

2021-11-01 20:44 · 2021-11-01

You have to buy through the link so if you have your own link for -50%, I am not sure it'll work, but give it a try @officialawenix ;)

kiari · reply
2021-11-01 22:20 · 2021-11-01

you can combine the €20 off code with the 40% off deal with this week's Black Friday sale on the website so the final price comes to a little under half the original cost, it’s definitely very affordable this week

AWENiX · reply
2021-11-01 23:52 · 2021-11-01

Yeah, didn't work, I can combine only with that 40% discount on their official early Black Friday.
@deepwave , Just for curiosity, you got free devices, but you still need to pay for shipping?
