Short answer: yes, it does. The dry samples are quite usable.

Woooo, Kevin got posted! Loving this chill atmosphere in this one, mang.

I own both EWQL Platinum Plus and Garritan Personal Orchestra. In terms of sample quality and the amount of expression you can wring out with proper sequencing, EWQL wins hands down.

This was a favorite of mine from that WCRG. Great work, Mr. NutS!

You can actually do some seriously sick basses with Sytrus. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsSCePKB16A for more.

I'm currently the top contributor with a measly $160.80. C'mon, someone, beat that price!

LFO on the cutoff is usually just one part of the bass patch. You'll also want to experiment with the resonance of the filter, adding effects to the bassline (distortion, etc.), and then just careful EQ tweaking as well. What synth are you trying to make a wobble with? Some are much better than others. Also, consider trying to take a bass synth but cut all the actual low frequencies out of it, then modulate the cutoff on that. Add the sub frequencies back with a separate synth doing a pure sine wave or something, then perhaps compress the two together at the end. Those are just a couple of things you can do--a lot of wobbles are made in ways that don't involve a filter at all (FM synthesis, for instance). Keep poking around, and I'm sure someone else will chime in here soon.

The patches ought to work just fine in previous versions of FL Studio. It's just that FL 11 made installing patches REALLY EASY, so that's what I recommend.

Cheers, SS! Hoboka, there's a patch in this bank that was first created for that DKC3 collab. It's the Warehouse synth.

Hey all, I've been a long-time user of Image-Line's Toxic Biohazard, and I just put the finishing touches on my first patch bank that I'm distributing for it. Check out the brand-new demo song, and then download the patch bank! Please note that the zip file includes the FLP of the demo project, so fellow FL Studio users can get even further in on the action.

This song is the reason I chose the Magic House source for the FF6 project. One of my all-time favorites from this site.

My go-to synths these days are the following: - Image-Line Harmless - Image-Line Harmor - Image-Line Toxic Biohazard - Image-Line Sytrus - Cakewalk z3ta+ - Cakewalk z3ta+ 2 - Ichiro Toda Synth1 - Native Instruments Massive - Ugo Rez 2.0 (there's a new 3.0, but I haven't tried it yet) Synth1 and Rez are both freeware, so there's nothing stopping you from giving them a shot.

I can give you several recommendations for laptops, but first I'd need to know a few things: 1. How much do you want to spend? 2. How important is portability--that is, do you mind lugging a big ol' 17" monster around, or would you prefer something thinner and lighter? 3. If portability isn't at all what you need right now, I can recommend some good pathways to either building or buying a desktop PC, too.

I'll check on this one a bit later after you've implemented some of Chimp's suggestions, etc. Sounds like you've gotten a lot of good advice already, and I think it'd be useless for me to pile on. I like where you're going, and I look forward to the next iteration.

Oh man, I'm posting here just so that I don't forget to come check this later. Bug me if you need to--Rayman was my first real video game, and as such it (and its spectacular soundtrack) have a huge soft spot in my heart. Haven't listened yet, but I intend to do so when I get home from work.

PrototypeRaptor's new album

Wow man. I'm glad our site as a whole could make something that had this much of a connection to you. Seriously, thanks for sharing.

Argle, for what it's worth, Endless Stair was on the very top of my vote list during staff voting on the contest tracks. DAT ATMOSPHERE.

Just hit Xarnax/Calum's bossa nova track. Big stupid grin on my face, mostly because this is the kind of music I grew up hearing as a kid at family events 'n stuff.

As an owner of this excellent bundle, I heartily recommend it as being worth every penny.

Gonna be out of the country for a month during the middle of the compo. Not good for my ability to remix things. Also, I've got a few projects I want to finish before I commit to anything else.

Huzzah, mission accomplished! Pendulum is a huge influence on my music, and I know Justin (Nutritious) takes a lot of inspiration from them as well. Not sure where OA's main inspiration was at for this song, but all his extra percussion, filler synths, orchestral stuff, and of course DAT GUITAR made Savage Triumph a song that we're all super proud to have created.

oboy. I guess that would mean I'm up for my team? I don't know if I can find the time to do this or not...we'll see!
