I might as well say another thing. Garageband is full of awful trance/techno saws. That's why I stick to the ones I like.

Everyone is complaining about repetitive drums, but trully, most of the samples provided for manual drumming suck out loud. They are super frail and weak and can hardly hold their ground. I myself usually stick with loops or similar drums for personal style and flow, but also because most of the time the rest of the drums suck. I kinda agree and disagree with your statement of the bad synth saws; sure, there are plenty of bad ones, but there's also a ton of stuff you can do with the ones you like to make them sound different. I've recently looked into alterations with the synths and whatnot, and I rather like it. Try playing around with those! Okay, so with all that, plus the fact that I like most of your music (but also dislike the purity of MIDI import to changed sounds--you must add MORE! Make me say you need less! ) I'm gonna give you an 85%. Keep it up! OM NOM NOMS: +3 REGLROCK +2 TheGuitarHeroe

Well, Garageband does have some bad instruments, I agree. But you did say you got Logic so you could use Logic's instruments in Garageband.

I only used one instrument from GB and the rest are from LP. All of the loops are also from LP. Do you eve use the notation tool to make ur own notes and whatnot? I type pressed record after I written down the notes..

If you want better instruments, I suggest buying a Garageband Jam Pack . Or better yet, a Logic sound library. Logic is apparently much better, so I really think you should try switching over.

I type pressed record after I written down the notes..[/quote] Oh man, you're doing such an insufficient and unexact way to notate and play your pieces! That's the way I did it before I knew how to notate, and it really limits you. Its hard to explain, but I did type up some stuff on garageband in the music software section, or whatever its called. look at that, or just message me and i'll help you out.

Oh no Neon! How did I miss you?!
95%
I am very impressed with your work Neon. You interpret songs in ways that are very unusual, but modern and successful. I love how fast you work! You are truly an awesome person and an awesome musician, keep it up!
As mentioned above, I think you might try some variation with instruments. I love your techno-style pieces, but the percussion tends to become rather repetitive. Besides that, great job!

Your songs are always great and you work really fast, but you should branch out into different genres, try some different instruments and make OC's more often. The only weakness(?) is too similar drums between your songs.
