Land of Cockaigne Oberon

well this is one of my bread and butter synths, no doubt. i should say that this gets used in about half the tracks i write which ... may not be many...

anyway, i really enjoy it. simple, smooth and pleasant. easy to program, good docs including midi ccs.

i don't think the presets show off it's abilities, but then i usually use it for very smooth sub basses with a bit of character. it also does quite decent punchy leads and such, but for me it's a bass synth of great standing.

superb VFM.

The Interruptor BionicDelay

well i do like a good dub style delay, let me tell you. and this one sounds good and dubby. quite a pleasingly imprecise feel to it, although it of course syncs perfectly. it has the ability to sound just a bit more natural than many delays.

docs are fine, no problems, it's a bit simple to use innit, it's a delay. gui is charming, and clear. plenty of solid usable presets that do most of the things one might ask of a delay unit.

well for free i can't fault it. it eats one's cpu, i'll not deny it. but it's well worth it. you don't want to go piling on delay units, one might well be satisfied with a single characterful delay in a tune. and this is it.
