the amount of compression is giving me a headache
please put the reverb after the compressor

you`re actually on to a really cool riff.. like the first 4 bars of that melody.

It sounds fine - it could work really well, but it totally depends on all the other sounds that go with it.

I knew some would say this! I guess it's a taste thang - I like verbs that pump and tend to slap a side chain on them. I'm after a big room excitement feel.

It's okay. A 16th note acid line, or something to speed up the break might make it more exciting.

It isn't working, I can tell you that much.

The riff overall isn't very exciting - definitely won't work as a main riff.

Its more gorgonzola than cheddar I think...

Its also too long for a big room riff, and the timings fucked. The overall sound is pretty piss weak too.

If you really want to make that sort of track (no accounting for taste after all) then I'd do an acid line, noise sweep, and get that pluck sounding bigger. Tighten up the timing too and make it a bit punchier. The first phrase is OK, but beyond that it just sounds like noodling with a keyboard.

What would be an example of a strong riff for you - any chance you could post here - cheers in advance.

i actually really like it, and i really like the pump too. very nice

Automate the cutoff on that pluck and give us some stabs to build tension...Maybe a bigger reverb or pluck?

Only then will hands reach for the laserbeams my son
