I was inspired by this:
http://www.freesound.org/forum/production-techniques-music-gear-tips-and-tricks/37779/?page=1#post82486

Why should Zetauri have all the fun?

Please create loops (or mellodies... or sound effects...) using any of NOVAKILL's synths. You are allowed to use NOVAKILL's effects.
Other basic effects allowed (Delay, EQ, reverb), but don't go over the top. We want to hear the synths.

You should use the tags "novakill" and "dare-39".

I want to believe.

Also - Zetauri came up with the original idea. So post on his thread, not here!

Well, it's nice that I could activate you or anyone else out there to create own sounds with Novakill's freeware VST's aswell. I think that's the purpose of reviewing software, isn't it. So others can read about it and try it for themselves.

However, my review thread and my Novakill VST-sounds are not meant for any "dare", competition or things like that. I'm doing my own thing and I combine whatever VST's I like with Novakill's synths.

AlienXXX, if you intend to make this a "dare" competition with a fixed set of rules then this is your business and you should create your own separate topic for that, or use this one of yours.

Please do not fill my topic with your dare competition entries, because those are two pairs of shoes!

You can, however, post in my topic if you have tested a VST-plugin from Novakill, recorded and uploaded a sample and written a brief review with a score rating between 1 and 10 for it. Then you are welcomed to post your Novakill VST review and soundlink in my topic. Otherwise post anything dare-related in your topic and not in mine.

Thanks for the understanding.

P.S. I think it's a fun idea of yours to run a Novakill VST competition. But again, this is not in my interest and I won't take part in this. You guys can ofcourse run wild with this and dare yourselves in competitions. Just have some fun. wink

OK, Zetauri. Fixed.
The dare posts should be here and not disturb your thread.

I want to believe.

No problem, mate. I really appreciate your interest in this.
Feel free to post in my thread whenever you have a VST review and personal rating.

Let us both create and upload more sounds with the Novakill VST's...

Perhaps we can divide and share our work in the sense that you can check out
the Nitrous VST series and newer ones from Novakill for your dare:

http://www.novakill.com/index_htm_files/NitrousPD.zip
http://www.novakill.com/index_htm_files/NitrousNEO.zip
http://www.novakill.com/ultra.htm

And I check out their older/other synths and FX in the meantime for my project:

Cheers

I will definetely spend some time on this. Although my reviews will not be as extensive or as detailed as yours.

One think I ask: if one of the VST synths you test has a noise generator let me know. I will put that through some separate tests...

I want to believe.
