Feel free to suggest badges as well!

P.S.:  And if you'd like to request one of these badges to be awarded to someone (another composer or yourself as well) feel free to nominate them in the Award Request Thread!

I have a few ideas, so I'll write them down.

1 - Groover: I like the sound of the word 'Groover'!
Although there are some rhythm-related badges already, it would be cool to have one specifically awarded to creators of tracks with that groove, like in jazz-fusion or funk.
It would be fun to hear more groovy tracks on this forum.

2 - Meticulous Composer: Literally, a badge awarded to those who submit a piece where every element, such as DAW playback, performance articulation, and panning, has been meticulously crafted.

3 - Gentleman: This is a bit different from music.
However, I think kind members are important to the community.
So, it would be great if someone who has been treated kindly gave something back to that person.

4 - Synthesizer Master: To everyone creating amazing sounds with synthesizers!
An icon resembling a small Moog synthesizer might be a good idea, something that’s instantly recognizable as a synth.

5 - Mixing Master: To the creator of a track with amazing mixing!

6 - Stimulator: This badge is for creators who spark inspiration in others, whether a track sparked a new idea or motivated someone to start creating.
It’s awarded to those who serve as a great source of inspiration for the community members.

By the way, how about introducing a system where members can anonymously nominate someone for a badge by simply providing their username (the person you want to give it to, with an @ symbol) and the reason?
I imagine some people might want to award a badge but feel a bit too shy to post in the "Award Request Thread."
It’s a shame that such great badges exist but aren't being used very much!

Best,

Lithl.
