Hello, I've been lurking around the KVR Audio forums for years now and finally decided to join, contribute, and take part in this challenge. As much as I'd love to win in some capacity, I was more excited with the challenge of using one synth to create an entire track and ended up having a blast! The restriction to use just one instrument for all the instrumentation in my track opened my eyes to new possibilities for non-challenge tracks in the future.

Anyway, I used my favorite DAW, Renoise for all the arranging and mastering within Windows 7 via VMWare Fusion on my Macbook Pro. Everything was done with the OR2v synth as required by this challenge, no single effect was used (aside from the meta device included with Renoise for instrument automation, which i used to automate some of the frequency knobs to give it a warmer, more analog - modulated sound, hence Modulated Death :P). I mixed the volume levels and automated volume for mastering purposes to make all the instances coming in and out more subtle, instead of abrupt. There's 5 instances of OR2v running along side each other. All the sounds are either derived from my version of init (I just lowered all the knobs then slowly reconstructed the sounds I wanted) or severely altered from presets used as a base. Edit: Turns out I used the Ice preset as the main lead which proved to be a nice sound for the rest of my tracks to ride on.

As for inspiration, I've been a huge fan of modulated (or sounding, in my case :P) experimental music, noise, industrial, ambient and drone music. So I applied all of that into this track.

I loved hearing everyone elses submissions so far and wish you all luck! If anyones curious on my entire approach and would like me to expand upon it, I would be very happy to

You're not alone in that; there are at least 3 other Mac OSCers, although not all running Logic. I wonder how many OSC entries a Mac-only synth would get. I'm pretty sure there are at least 2 Mac-only synths, although one of those is Logic's synth.

After some very massive tracks I tried to restrain myself and made more minimal style. Hopefully not less interesting ;)

Count me in as one of the other Mac OSCers. I would love to participate again so am hoping that September's synth will be AU friendly!

Hmm, I'd love for an OS X compatible challenge too. I'm fortunate to have Bootcamp with Windows 7 from a previous laptop which I use VMWare Fusion to use within OS X unless I want to play Skyrim or something more intensive requiring booting up into the actual partition. Though, it was pretty sweet having a clean slate with my Windows version of Renoise and just the one synth installed :D.

Puuuh, had some difficulties to finalize this month :phew:
Don't know where the fault was, Cubase or OR2v. Suddenly the 16th instance became silent and Cubase crashed... :o
But finally, what the hell, forget the 16th track! :hihi:
