Hi all
My track:
https://soundcloud.com/zarf/zarf-earthrise
Many thanks to the dev for being so supportive
I've not had loads of time this round, and to be honest I've found the synth a bit frustrating to work with, but it is a cool synth with some great features and a good sound and I appreciate the opportunity to work with it
Also thanks for all the presets which I built upon quite a bit this month due to time constraints.
Good luck everyone
18 Fathoms in Ableton Live.
Ableton eqs, compressors, delays, reverbs, utilities, multiband dynamics
LoudMax
That's all folks!

I had high hopes at the start of this round. Initially after reading the user manual I decided to use wavetable oscillators and fancy RSH modulation to imitate granular synthesis techniques, and now I somewhat regret this decision. As it turned out the synthesizer features I attempted to use were implemented very poorly. Every time I tried to do something too clever I had to send more and more bug reports. And though I appreciate all the help from Everett I have to say this plugin still requires additional work. Example: when I open my project with just 7 instances of this plugin my PC immediately runs out of 4 GB memory and starts using a swap file.
So I had immense troubles getting my track finished and in the end I don't like the result. But maybe someone might find this minimalist ambient composition interesting from the sound design viewpoint.

DAW: Reaper 5.62
Fathom Mono x7
OrilRiver x6
ReaEQ x1
ReaControlMIDI x1
JS: Volume Adjustment x2

JS: Stereo Channel Volume/Pan/Polarity Control x1

All presets are made from scratch.

Thanks everyone for using Fathom and for your late nights creating such amazing songs.
I will be updating the Seaweed Audio web site to feature your SoundCloud tracks.
I will also work hard over the next month to resolve some of the usability issues.
Remember to zip up and send in your song presets:

My entry for OSC 109…
So, for this month I just decided, forget making all my own sounds, I’m just going to grab some Vengeance sample packs and go, and just submit something to the OSC and see anyone notices. Make sure you layer your traditional 909 clap with a good 808 Snare, and don’t forget to layer it with a snare from the Amen Break! Everyone knows you have to do that to make real music.
Just Kidding
Happy April Fools… I guess?
Ok, for real now…
mmGhost - Analgesia
x36 Fathom
Used Fathom’s delay and simple reverb unit for sound design, as well as the parametric EQ thing
Logic Pro X DAW and FX
Overdrive
EQ
Compressor
Limiter
Adaptive Limiter
Exciter
Enveloper
Silververb
Platinum verb
Delay
Single Freq EQ
Other FX
Xfer OTT Compressor
Xfer DJ Filter
Xfer Dimension Expander
Camel crusher
TDR VOS SlickEQ (!Thing is good!)
Fine Cut Bodies - La Petite Exciter
TAL Reverb 4 (Amaze)
Yohg W1 (of course)
AirWindows DrumSlam
A1StereoControl
and…
Limiter No.6 (Wow, this thing really blew me away, first time using. I actually can’t believe it’s free, and i’ve just barely scratched its surface)
I made some of the sounds by morphing some of the factory presets (especially the pads, and one of the lead layers). But everything else was done from init (Bass, all drums/percs, foley, etc). Guitar sounds worked out with one of the factory wavetables, a LPF, some camel crusher, and lots o’ reverb.
I’m not sure if i was using the synth right but i got a lot of really nice clanky bell sounds by playing the MIDI keyboard in a super high register and letting the synth lose it’s mind (maybe aliasing or something…) it’s a neat little thing i stumbled upon when i accidentally nudged my MIDI keyboard like 3 octaves too high.

Limiter 6 has 3 skins, my fav is the black and red, because black and red just sounds better.
