Here's a new project of mine called 'Brand New Heart:' https://youtu.be/kQY9L3aBnAM

Please help. I improved the sound just by decreasing the volumes, but there's still a bit of spiking. How do I get rid of it completely?

I love it, the expressionistic dissonance really kicks it up a notch, and the clipping adds to the avant-garde effect perfectly.

On the B side, that pedal tone really pierces the whole repetitive main arp. Very interesting.

I'd like to remind you that I'm a beginner. I really did try to have NO clipping in these two projects.

I've been working on the volume issues I've been having. There's been some improvements, but it's not yet solved, so please listen without headphones. Thanks in advance for the feedback.

listen to each tone. can you hear that there is a sharp almost 'click' for each tone. Thats the attack of the envelope. It will make that 'clicky' sound if it is too steep.
You can change that in

They're not bad (just the clipping issues). Even with the minimalism, it still kind of strikes a dark, dissonant chord (no pun intended). Could imagine using these in a dark 2D old-school nostalgic game I might make one day. I'm a bit of a beginner myself on proper LMMS music production myself but I know what my ears like and they're not bad. Good stuff! :D

Thanks.

I'd encourage you to make that game if that what you want to do.
