I made the choice to finally try making my own music after being a dj for a year.
It’s fun but hard. After a three days of yelling at ableton and learing what I could off youtube I did it. The main thing I learned was cpu management lol
Exactly, sweeps, downsweeps, impacts, white noise etc. There is sample packs which have all those, search for “vengeance fx pack” and you will find a good quality fx sample pack.
the bassline is weird how it’s coming up and down, did you sidechain it or something? the volume difference is just too abrassive.
also, the track has like zero bassweight, it could use some sub, and i don’t personally like the high end percussion, but it’s pretty solid for a first track
edit: and try to make your own fx, do you want to sound like thousands of other people? risers are pretty easy to make per se, white noise with an automated bandpass filter and bam, you have a simple riser
