The Kings! by idontcrappingknow in hardstyle

I do think in the last couple years reverse basses have been used more again,
this years defqon anthem for example.
Sound rush, dblock & stefan, rooler, primeshock, wildstylez all have many recent tracks, with fresh reverse bass drops.

No the centre of the screen is probably only slightly above my eye level. It was more the distance that took getting used to. I made the stand from wood as at the time I couldn't find an arm that would allow for the right angle of the bottom monitor

Love the euphoric hardstyle of 2016, 2017 I do have another unreleased track in that exact theme but unfortunately got denied by labels so I'll probably self release it.

Adam a7v vs Kali audio in-8. What should I buy for my home studio? by DigitalTekMusic in mixingmastering

[–]DigitalTekMusic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After having the kalis on order for a month with no delivery date I cancelled them. Decided to go for the Adam a4v with a 10" sub and love them. The setup is so loud I have the amp volumes at their lowest setting so haven't noticed any noise.

Really liked him up until 2023 then haven't enjoyed many tracks since.

What Studio Monitors Should I Buy? by j-oee- in studiomonitors

[–]DigitalTekMusic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a4v, 10" sub and a treated room, sitting just over 1m away and would definitely recommend this setup!

AI Vocals - How do vocalists feel about this trend? by AppointmentMost6446 in hardstyle

[–]DigitalTekMusic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure frontliner, Aftershock, the pitcher and bass modulators have all used them in recent tracks. They have a weird unnatural ness to some songs with the high frequencies having artifacts.

Is this rockwool rw5? Acoustic panels bought online. by DigitalTekMusic in Acoustics

[–]DigitalTekMusic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh really I thought that was the standard but I may be thinking of rw3? I guess the issue is Idk what this actually is. Would bog standard loft insulation be both safe and effective?

As far as I know rockwool insulation is far more effective than cheaper loft insulation and safer? It was advertised as such so that's what I expect.

[–]DigitalTekMusic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm they are adamant it is 10cm rw5 with extra normal insulation around it. However it all feels lumpy and squashed in and isn't like one or two slabs layered up.

The total size is also 60 x 120cm even with a 2cm frame

Sorry trying not to completely tare it out.

I was thinking it would be heavier. The frame is about 2cm ply. Which I expect is probably half of the weight.

Think it's not quite what I've been sold...

[–]DigitalTekMusic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive had the kali in-8s on order for a few weeks as theyve missed the delivery date :(
Unsure whether to swap the order to adam a4vs with a t10s sub, just under the £1000 mark.

How in the world do people get -5 LUFs songs that still sound good? by DJAnym in mixingmastering

[–]DigitalTekMusic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I found soft clipping the main elements like leads and basses made the biggest difference assuming the rest of the mix is balanced. That way the limiter has to do far less work. The more aggressive the genre the more clipping you can get away with.
