God I remember someone screenshotting that, someone else made a preset for T-Racks based on it, people thought it was some magical preset that made everything sound amazing

I understand that mastering is an important part of the production process, but I think it's silly that it gets so much attention and there's so much of a mystique surrounding it. Why would producers be willing to show off their production techniques and how they actually create sounds but then get all secretive about how they make it loud, like in this video?
They can keep their special preset for all I care. Probably loudness war garbage.

So I've decided to discontinue the remix comp.
If anyone else wanted to take over in running it, fine. hopefully vocals will be kept to those who were sent it.
Peace out. Sorry all

I'm a good way through I have put many hours in to it and learned a lot from it. I'm going to continue and finish. Hopefully I'm still ok to post. Also want to put on Soundcloud with download. Again I hope this is ok.

Well, I think it's down to stuff in my own life suddenly being precarious again unexpectedly so I've gotta take it easy for a bit.
Although after the 10th it would be great if entrants posted up their finished remix in the thread for all to hear

There is a sense of uncertainty in my life too atm, so I can relate. Things like the comp help get my mind off of stuff I have no control over. Also, you must admit the forums got somewhat busier lately. The comp may have had something to do with it, and I feel that's a good thing.
Do what you gotta do to stay on track, Sparkz. Sun will shine again :)

I guess I'm never even bothered about people or the scene, like I'm as honest as they come. There's very few peeps I still respect, which includes FDB and Mansy.

Even though university is keeping my suping busy, I still managed to finish my remix.
Really enjoyed my time working on it, so thanks to you Sparkz :). I'm excited to check out what some of the other participants have made.
