There's not a lot left to say about the mix. It sounds great. I'm gonna have to listen really close to find something to complain about. Sorry it's taking so long to respond.

click the download tab, then download from the FreeAlpha box on the right. It's a simpler version of their Alpha3 synth. Not a demo.

Nah, I saw it, just wasn't gonna let it interfere with the ones I was doing at that time. (Trying to sneak a track into my reviews, are we? ) When logged in, you see which threads you've responded to and which ones you haven't. Do a search for mod review threads and you should see how easy it is to find ones you haven't posted in. That's what I do, at least when it's been a month since last time I did any, and I've been away over holidays and stuff.
I'll get to yours eventually, unless another mod gets there first and I don't have anything to add.

Sorry, have been juggling priorities the past few months. I might have time closer to xmas to do stuff, but this week I've got a few too many other things. Maybe after that. Hopefully right after that.

Beyond that, actual sound design stuff usually involves deciding what kind of sound I want. A stiff, almost artificially in-tune sound or a more honky-tonk sound, and adjusting that. Deciding on whether to boost or reduce any particular overtones. Deciding how much mechanical noise I want in the sound (hammers, dampers etc). Deciding if I want to screw with other stuff in the sound. The randomize button can provide some inspiration.
Of course, then there's mic positioning and the new effects pane, but I usually don't screw much with the positioning anymore, and haven't yet looked through the new effects. The compressor is worth looking at. It's better to reduce the level of the instrument than to have heavy compression on it. If you find that the compressor doing too much, lower the level and/or increase the compressor threshold.

Could be some audio settings. Check through the options for anything weird. Sample rate, buffer size, things like that. Make sure it's routed to the correct output, some a virtual output that can't handle it.
Also, start with a regular preset, those should be normal-sounding enough to not have some bizarre compression or other problems.
The only problem I've ever had with P4 was that the polyphony, which was at 1 by default, no idea why. Almost had me sending a mail over to their site before I caught it. No idea what could distort it. If nothing else work, turn down its volume.

Well, mine or that of some other mod. Glad I'm useful with the guide and suggestions in threads and stuff. Ima give your wip a listen, I might spot something you'd wanna change before mod review.

btw, just so we're clear, what exactly is the artist name you want for sd3? mak? Eightman? Both? Neither?

Cool: I got some Aurora Borealis-style plans for it, just need to get all those pesky project tracks out of the way first.
