Subreddit rules check

Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · Post your music only in the weekly Feedback thread and products/services in the Marketplace thread — off-thread promos get removed and can trigger a 1-day ban.
Links
The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: question, guide, discussion
Headline: short and explicit (genre + DAW + specific issue or promise). Write in first-person for help requests (“How do I…?”); neutral/authoritative for guides. Typical posts are medium-length technical questions, detailed walkthroughs, or gear/discussion threads with audio/screenshots. Upvoted: clear, reproducible advice and in-depth tutorials; Removed: self-promo, low-effort memes, or posts that belong in weekly threads.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked July 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/edmproduction's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
