If you have not tried this synth out already, go get it … now! I have a good, good feeling about this comp having played around with NR2010 … Where has this little beauty been hiding all this time?? …. Well, the answer is …
… here! .. http://www.gtgsynths.com/plugins.htm … what are you waiting for?
As well as a first, this OSC will be a last. This is the last OSC I will be running. It has been a difficult decision, but one which was inevitable due to other commitments. However, I am very pleased to say that the OSCs will continue in the capable hands of V'Ger. Of course, I will be around to offer assistance and co-operation as required.
Anyway, enough about me and V'ger, …. on with the comp
Create a track using only NR2010 for all the sounds, including percussion!
* * * * * * THE RULES ( please read fully) * * * * * *
The track can be made in any host.
All the sounds in our tracks will be created by NR2010
* * * FX * * *
NR2010 has some great internal FX, but I know you all have your pet plugs you cant live without, so I'll restrain myself and not impose heavy limits which will only make you want to cheat
So …Fx are limited to Delay ( unmodulated ), static spatial ( reverb, ambience, ADT etc ), dynamics ( comp, limit, gate ), EQ ( inc. exciters etc ) and stereo fx ( pan/autopan/width enhancers etc )
If in doubt, give us a shout.
..... Important!......
Other than the hosts native EQ,
All Fx used must .....
**be freeware, and easily available via download.
**generally usable in a wide range of hosts
**not be used in such a way as to transform the sounds to a degree
which makes them unrecognisable as those achievable from NR2010
..... otherwise you will be held face down in a basin of earwax until write 'I must not cheat' 100 times, legibly, on a marshmallow with a blunt pencil!
.... Fx footnote .... it is a generally held view that in the spirit of the comp, although we all like to create and hear well produced tracks, we should use as few Fx as we dare! ... with NR2010, this should not be difficult
*** There is no track length limit.... but be aware of the prevalence of ARISTOTLE syndrome ( All Right, I'm Suddenly Thinking, Ouch That's Long Enough )
* * * * * How to Submit your Track * * * * *
