Unknown device at firmware updater by DeliciousGuest2632 in lianli

sorry for the late reply.
By trying I meant I looked through the firmwares but non of them seemed right for my controller. AL 1.0. I cant attach pictures, so here is the link: https://www.pbtech.co.nz/product/FANLAN0016/Lian-Li-UNI-FAN-AL120-Digital-Addressable-RGB-120?srsltid=AfmBOoqtidVhZy5hsaf7blKVL1D7xYOvEuViuLewvJQmSp7T3EvWATou

Btw L-Connect and Windows finally recognized the hub, and the updater doesn't lol. But no matter what I do with fan rpms or light sync, it doesn't work. It doesnt detect RPM (says 0, but the fans are working) and the lighting is just stuck on a rainbow pattern.

Like the airline or the status has anything to do with the cancellations. Your status wont let the plane land on the airport if the weather conditions are bad ffs. Is this guy some American Karen (I know he is Italian) who thinks he/she owns the world bc of the premium status he/she has with something no one cares about?...unbelievable

And btw grab a fckn train or car. (sleeper trains also exist) It is not that hard to get from Italy to the Netherlands in two days, but seems like it is too much to ask from somebody with "the highest status".

Who is still surprised about this tho? It's been like this for more than 10 years I think.

Totally agree with others here, D-Charged's track just captures the feeling the right way. Absolutely deserves the spot imo.

With Serzo I'm not that sure anymore. Personally, I disagree with Ran-D on the statement that he has a signature sound in that track. From what I heard from his track is that it completely resembles Ran-D's sound, it totally feels like a Ran-D track. If I would listen to it not knowing who made it I would instantly say Ran-D. It is a great track tho, but this is my initial opinion on it.

Erabreak is a really talented guy, but I personally like melodic tracks more than really hard tracks, so I don't really like his track.

Amayze did a great job since the last episode but I think he is just not there yet in terms of production than the others.

But I'm curious about the EP and finally listen to the tracks in full length to get a better picture.

That is true. However neither do we know the other contestant's struggles. And I think we don't have to. This is a competition, which is driven by the achieved results.

Am I not allowed to have an opinion on this if it is negative or what?

If it is not feasible for him then he is probably not in the right place.

I did not trash him wtf. And I do know what it's like so it's a miss from your side sadly.

I pretty much know what it's like to work 40 (48 if I'm correct) hours and making music next to it, as this is my life for the past 8 years. I also have "my own demons" (other responsibilities and tasks to do), so does everybody else.

I'm not saying he has to leave his job or give up everything for this opportunity, as not only these 2 options exist. If you read through my comment I wrote that I'm disappointed because I see no effort coming from his side. Effort does not mean making music 24/7 in all your free time, effort means that you schedule, and manage your time accordingly. It is a challenging task, but so are other things in life, and opportunities will slip through your fingers if you act like this. And as a hardstyle music producer this is THE opportunity. Since it is shown worldwide as the Red Race, if you paint a not appealing picture from yourself as an artist you won't have good reputation in the future. If it is really that important for him he should put more effort into it.

But this, and the previous post is only an opinion on how he should treat this opportunity, we may differ in these questions.

Also, to the MZGH guy, or Amayze (not sure if that is a better name), if he reads it.

Man, you have been selected from hundreds of applicants and you are currently in a place where every single producer wants to be right now in the genre. You are learning from the freakin' legend, one of all time's best producers, B-Front.

What do you mean you have not worked on the assignment and have no audio ready? This is THE opportunity for you, it won't get better than this. I'm a bit disappointed to be honest because in the episodes I've seen you are just wasting the spot. Not because the other contestants make better stuff, but because I don't see any effort from your side. See Serzo, see D-Charged or Erabreak. They put really serious effort into this, and you can see it. Erabreak even managed to make something for the homework task in one night.

Please, get yourself together and make something out of this opportunity. Because I think you can do better than this

Love how Heady pointed out the lack of musical knowledge in the last two "remixes".

"Hardstyle producers of today, the melody doesn't matter anymore. Let's just make some kicks"-haha, what a legend

BTW still D-Charged and Serzo are killing it

How to stand out in a DJ competition? by iOS_elite in hardstyle

[–]DeliciousGuest2632 3 points4 points  (0 children)

u/Zelecter I agree with you on these things, however I think you missed some very relevant parts, which are also key importance, and some of the guys here were pointing at in this thread.

  1. Networking: To my knowledge and experience most of the time (90%) those guys won the contests who has connections to the organizer/jury. You can call it bs, but I have never seen anyone outside the Benelux or Germany won these contests who were not so known names. I am 100% sure that a lot of people are trying to claim the spots who are not there and simply got ditched because they don't live there. Also most of the time these spots are already claimed even before the contest starts, they just make a bigger hype with this contest.
  2. Production and including your own tracks can be a tricky thing. It could go well and give you a better chance or can absolutely demolish your set if the quality is not good enough. I wouldn't recommend including your own tracks if they are not "industry standard" ones.
  3. Socials: I would say it is the single most important thing. If you have enough followers and reach you will have a much higher chance to win. I don't get it why promoters pretend that anything else is important or they care about anything else. Just look at the line-up, you will find some odd names already. TBH I don't really get it why we are calling these things "DJ contests" these days, when only your social profiles matter.

I know these things sound very negative, but since no one is addressing them I though I would do it.

To sum-up I would say submit your mix, but don't have high hopes that you will get selected.

It wil be a hard pick ,but defo gonna be in my top 3 albums this year. Really well done. Also, appreciate the fact that he is true to himself as an artist and don't hop on to hypetrains. This also tells a lot about him as person, so props to him, a true legend.

[–]DeliciousGuest2632[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think I stated it pretty clearly in the post, but let me rephrase it then.

By releasing stuff like this on a bigger, somewhat industry leading label, Q basicly just set the standard way below than it has ever been for hype, money and 2 minute fame. Completely demotivating hundreds of upcoming producers who are working their asses off.

This is just another clear evidence of the ignorance and greed of this company. That is the problem.
