I think there's too much rules now
Turning up the effect too much where it transforms the nature of the synth (Heavy overdrive / distortion, etc)

… but if you use an external FX which completely changes the nature of the sound from said synth, then it could be any synth rather than the One Synth we are using for the Challenge.

Surely getting the sound you want for your track from the Synth of the Month is part of the challenge? Not who's applied what FX to get a sound.

Otherwise, we would be in the realms of "FX's of the Month", or FX Challenge!

But I still think that you will get a different output from each synth because of the synths internal features...even if the synth is juiced up with distortion and brickwall clipping.
Digits on steroids is surely going to sound different to Noisemaker on steroids for example.

I was thinking that I will skip another round since but I had 2 free days so I looked at both synths and decide to discard elektro and give Noisemaker a chance. During quick test I didn't find way to assign velocity to filter and even volume in electro. Maybe there is but I don't wont to spend all time finding it.

So in these two days I created a really weird track. For those using subwoofer beware

. I went for more subtle and more soft tune this time. Very very simple drums and perc stuff. No heavy guns (commercial plugs) FX used. even if I used them, they can't help my poor skills

The Dawn Of The Last Day Has Passed For Death Star..

Now Her Valiant Inhabitants Are Staging A Desperate Last Fight
Against The Rebel Scum..

Who Have No Respect For The Empire..

But It Will All Be In Vein..

Submission Post
Published my Track on Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/p-e-t-e-r-h/prev ... gnificance
I will reset "download" flag in a few day, so go and grab in one of the next days.

Still the HQ Version is only on Choon: https://choon.co/tracks/0crhb7y1dz9/thi ... nificance/
Funny, with a clear as hell mix, even the 96KBits Version sounds acceptable...

I have only used TAL NoiseMaker, 30-40 instances, I have used Bitwig, a pletora of Bitwig plugins and several MeldaProduction Gems. I will only name the commercial ones: MSpectralDynamics, MAutoEqualizer, MDynamicMB, MSaturatorMB, MStereoProcessor, MUltraMiximizer, MTurboReverb.

Track has been tested on crapy mobile phone Headphones, my Bayerdynamics Headphones, my Studio Monitors, crapy consumer speakers (missing a bit low end, get yourselfs good peakers guys) and even in my car...I'm pretty confident that you can turn up the volume rather loud on every speakers and it will still "sound"...

Certified Quality: 100% wobble and reese free!

Can't wait to listen to everyone's tracks! Here's my entry:

https://soundcloud.com/rellyk/rellik-la ... della-luna

Last month I worked on OSC every night like it was a second job

I put a lot less time into this one. I was massively inspired by listening through the work of Jasinski and J.Ruegg, so I'm really trying to stretch my sound design and technical/rhythmic creativity, and trying out a lot of new stuff that I really really don't have a handle on yet - i.e. sorry for hurting your ears
