[Voice Acting Audition]

Nice, you talk very fluently, you voice is very clean, and yeah, your voice its quite good for voice acting! My only complaint is that you have to put more emotion depending on what are you talking, dont get me wrong, i know this kind of text should be read perfectly as you did, but i barely could know at some point you were saying a question, but these are only minor things, i hope you grow with the talent you have!

Carlyndra responds:

Thank-you so much for your feedback!
Hmm, I have been told that my voice (non-acting) can be a little monotone, so maybe that has something to do with it. I find that sometimes when I try to put a lot of emotion in, it sounds somewhat insincere or fake. Definitely something I need to and will work on.

I did make a second recording adding some more emotions. Would you mind at all to give me your feedback on that?

Thank-you very much once again! Your comment was very helpful =]

[Something New]

This is not bad, drums are enjoyable, but it needs more variation and more energy i think. Also, you could use more instruments, and i hear one tune for the whole song, you could make a chorus/bridge/verse, or something else. Let me use an example, you visit a country, and you are amazed, then you visit again and again, and again, its not so special than the first time right? To be a 4 min song, it needs variation! Well this sounds more different, orchestral sounds with house, heh, this is the first time i hear something like this :P. To be the first time it sounds good, we all have to make the first step somewhere ;). I liked this, keep your work mate!

[June Go Boom (Zx Dubstep)]

Not bad, but i didnt like drums, they feel unfilled, you could use some hats/hihats, drums are a key in music, they give the song its deserved style and maintain the rhythm! You could use more instruments, and variations to help the environment of the song, so people think: Hell yeah! When i think this is done, it surprises me with more things Omfg this is freakin awsome! I really hear this very promising, ill keep and eye on you! Keep your work ;)

[Harmonic Symphony 12]

Great ambient piece, for me, it has it all! Except, the only thing that i didnt like is that you dont put bass, but in a way, you managed to fill the background with pads, but i think with more bass this could be the piece of the year! This is one of a few ambient songs that i close my eyes and imagine another world! All sounds are well presented, you played with them nicely! Nice effects you used there! This is completely amazing! Added to favs! Keep your work mate, i really like your style! :D

Rinileki14 responds:

"Piece of the year?" Wow XD

Thanks!!! I see what you mean when referring to the bass. I felt adding more bass would throw off the calm nature of the song. (Also, I don't really have any speakers right now, so I kind of have to go off of how everything sounds with different sets of headphones)

Also, you're the 2nd and hopefully not the last person to be able to imagine and see "another world" when listening to this piece (That's awesome!) Thanks for favoriting and I hope to see more great reviews from you!

[Paradox Palace- Zx]

Well it was enjoyable, but, i didnt like the start, becuase the way you made it, it should stronger. In the drums, they were boring, only 4step floor kick doesnt make the cut, and you used the main synth/lead for the whole song! For me that means: boring... But something that i liked is that you put the lead side to side in the headphones, i liked the bass, but it was too repetitive too... This is enjoyable, ill keep an eye on you, you seem promising! :P Keep your work!

ZxOOxZ responds:

Thanks SO much! Im really working Hard!

[~SW~ Weightless]

To be made in a plane is very good! In my opinion, the drums quality sounded kind of simple, but the whole tune is passive so i think its just me and my crazy talk... I liked the transitions, the effects you put there fitted perfectly, I enjoyed this piece, its not repetitive at all. The only thing i didnt like here: drums. Hope this helps!

SkyeWint responds:

Hello!

Yeah, the tune is very passive and ambient, the bass and arpeggios are used about as much as the more 'lead'-like instruments for the tunes. :)

The transitions use several effects I have, like a reversed cymbal with a strong phaser on it, as well as one cool effect I like a lot called "Wavescape" - it's actually a pad, but. Still. xD Oh, and the pitch slide at the end was exactly that, a pitch slide. :)

The drums, yes, they are simple. I wasn't really looking for fancy cool incredible drums, mainly was trying to keep them simple and sweet, instead working harder on having a cool pattern for them. It's a different style of drums from what I normally have.

Thanks for the feedback, it did help! :D
