Hi all.

This is my first time in a contest One Synth Challenge.

participated with the song:

https://soundcloud.com/feeling-within-t ... -contest-2

DAW: FL Studio 10

24 instances of Swierk

No effects.

I adjusted the use of daw by default. only a few instances the volume was adjusted in the mixer. in the channel master, only the Fruity Limiter that is default. without adjustments for me.

I Do not use effects to compose this song. all the sounds are generated by the synthesis legitimate swierk.

That was my goal to the compose this song, using nothing more than just the Swierk.

Thank you! and Good luck! my friends.

Greetings from mexico.

Hooray, I finally got one done on time

I spent too much time on sound design and not enough on composition/arrangement, as well as moving
this month... if I can think of better additional excuses, I'll add them later.
Anyway, the specs:

DAW: Reaper

14 x Swierk
4 x ClassicReverb
4 x ClassicDelay
4 x ClassicCompressor
2 x ClassicEQ
4 x ReaEQ
6 x ReaDelay
2 x DualPanner
1 x SlickHDR
1 x SlickEQ
1 x LimiterNo6
1 x Lisc-verb

Maybe a little sausagey, but there's dynamics n' stuff. Rolled my own patches, but thanks to the
extra banks for inspiration. PS I made an ORGAN patch

Hello - too long an absence. Could not be helped.

This is called: The Mirage.

Swierk X 12
Lisc Delay X 2
Marvel EQ X 1
Reverb and other EQ on board SONAR.

Not finished really but time was running out. Way too much packed into 4 minutes? Prolly.

I noticed with LISC delay that in SONAR at least the settings are not retained by saving the project. I had to keep remembering to save / reload separately.

And something is weird with Sound Cloud - it is taking ages to process the track...

https://soundcloud.com/paulr01/pmj_rit-the-mirage

I made some of the patches - 4 I think. But some of the others, though they started as presets, have been edited beyond recognition in some cases. That rain/flowing water thing was a bastard. It took more than just Swierk, obviously.

drunken jesus wrote:Thinking about entering this as the OSC have intrigued me in the past but I never really had the time, one quick question do you guys find it easier to write your songs while using the synth or to write the song first then start working on the synth? I think writing a rough sketch/outline of a track on my typical samplers/synths of choice then moving the composition to Swierk would provide a good result

.

I've only entered a few times but I think the best way is to see whether you can get some sounds you like (preferably love) from the synth then start letting those sounds take you in a direction. Other layers usually get added along the way.
