We should exchange the SoundCoins for subscriptions, I'm from Colombia, and it's expensive to buy the subscription, I really love SoundGym, but I just simply cannot afford the price. I do'nt use the sound coins but I would use them in exchange for subscriptions or discounts here.

I wish... Im donating all my coins because I've gotten basically everything from the store at this point.

Same. It is a great site, good community, just expensive.

Long sessions: Breaks or Deep Focus?
Best productivity tip for long sessions: Timer + Breaks or Deep Focus + No Breaks?

🎛️ Long session ahead. How do you stay productive?
Do you work in cycles with a timer and breaks, or lock into deep focus and push straight through?

Every producer has their own workflow.

Which one actually keeps you at your best, SoundGym fam?

Kinda depends on what it is for me. If it's ear training, mix/mastering session or sound design then definitely add breaks. If it's getting an idea down i usually prefer no breaks and staying in the flow.

60 to 90 minutes deep focus, with 20 to 30 minutes of break between sessions, works wonders for me.
