Really? Synth1 is pretty much the only non-moog synth I really know how to program

That'd be swell!

The Hubbard you mentioned is the sci-fi writer, right?

I think your thinking of L Ron Hubbard ? Hmm

Shall I assume it's not him?

Hmm, may be L Ron was a musician as well??

He was, that I know.

Could be the same person then, I'd say..

He wasn't that talented, from what very little I heard (he was way better as a writer), but maybe I heard the wrong things...

Hehe, I guess I deserved that misspelling after doing the same with the legendary Hubbard, but thx for the vote anyway.

Somehow the mp3 I downloaded ended up with the k in the end, looking at the 4shared folder it doesn't have one though so I must have done something by mistake. Anyway I was wondering before myself if it really was the right name.

Yes spelling Rob as Ron is bad mistake.

And to everyone who got confused, Rob Hubbard is not Ron L Hubbard.

Kool, thanks for the clarification Xenobioz.

Thanks - I thought it might be him because I knew he made music, too, and he's done - or tried to, at least - 3543426 different things.

Or one of my favs,

Thanks for the comments. I'm a bit of a devils advocate and like to try and make VST's go against their natural strengths.

In this OSC we saw quite a lot of mellow tracks, a touch of jazz funk and some FM-ish and chippy noises. I therefore preferred tracks that got a bit more epic and upbeat

There's no helping me - Rage Against the Machine syndrome I think

I came into the scene about two years ago after a bet in my local pub that I could write a tune. This being off the back of playing the fiddle to an OK level when I was a lad. It kind of stuck anyway

Thanks for the C64 links. To be honest, once you've tackled a fair few of the VST's out there, you'll realise anything is now possible. If only I could just settle for one to work consistently on

Kind regards,
Mouxbar

Man this one was hard ( they all are, but there was some seriously good music throughout this time )... Listened to all the tracks twice through, heavily influenced by white wine and port ( yeah, I mix wine and port

)... still had to get a second opinion from She Who Must Be Obeyed ( I disobeyed! )...

10 Bits'n'Pieces Yeager
5 Flex'n'MOrph V'ger
3 The Conversation Morflex
2 The Flexorcist Tattiemannie
1 Flex'n'Dance Totolitoto

Hey, how's everyone? .... well, good to see some early votes

.. here is a quick count of the points so far.

Flex 'n Morph - V'ger ... 3, 10, 5 = 18
Bits 'n Pieces - Yeager ... 3, 10 = 13
Flex-n-stramash - tattiemannie.... 10, 2 = 12
The Conversation - Morflex ... 5, 3 = 8
Flex-n-Dance - Totolitoto ... 5, 1, 1 = 7
Fast 'n Slow - Yeager ... 2
The Flexorcist - tattiemannie ... 2
Flexensteins Lab - Xenobioz ... 1

( Voters : 3, total votes, 63 )

... Really looking forward to how this story develops .... a few twists, turns and heroics to come I suspect

Oh ... need to correct the above re. Synth1.

My suggestion is that we use Synth1 for the March comp to celebrate a year of OSC ... there will be a couple of comps between now and then

I got a PM today from an OSC supporter I've not heard from in a while (Olikana)... with an interesting idea ...

... a free choice OSC! ... One where we create tracks as usual, with one synth, but as individuals, we can choose which 'one synth' we use rather than all use the same one.
I suggest we do this after the march 'anniversary' comp, but if there is great enthusiasm I would be happy to bring it forward and do it as the Feb comp.... I think there are a lot of advantages to trying it out ... and possibly repeating it every few months or so to keep things fresh

OSC11 - FNS4 - V'ger wins!
