One Synth Challenge #179: Any One Synth (ZioMau wins!) (Updated Prize)

[Rahodees]

Well here's a submission. Sorry to be that guy but I'm going to say, I know it sucks. Due to life circumstances I essentially had three days, and ended up also having to learn a new DAW, AND it turns out the Minifreak VST is buggy as all get-out.* But I was determined to complete a thing, and so here it is.

Made using Waveform 12 Free

Plugins used: 3xMinifreak V, 1xWaveform's built in simple Limiter

*Also I don't understand drums. Or balancing. Etc.

Sorry,I can't change track status...messeged me:''Removing this track is irreversible. You will lose all the plays, likes and comments for this track with no way to get them back.'' Don't know why the others tracks appears here,I did nothing.Now it is done,but I didn't want commit attention to showing what I uploaded to SoundCloud.Has nothing to do with the race.

My first entry into the contest.

OSC #179
KVR handle: andyrichmond
Composer: Andy Richmond
Title: "Learning To Dance"

https://soundcloud.com/andy_richmond/learning_to_dance

DAW: REAPER/Windows 10/MK-249C2/Scarlett 2i2
Synth: Cherry Audio DCO-106 x 19

ReaEQ x 13
ReaLimit x 4
ReaDelay x 2
ReaVerb x 3
JS: Transient Controller x 2
JS: Waveshaping Distortion x 2
VST: ReaGate (Cockos) x 1
ReaComp x 1 (sidechain)

Bus: Drum Crush - JS: General Dynamics (Cockos) -> JS: Event Horizon Limiter/Clipper
Bus: Big Delay & Verb - ReaDelay -> ReaVerb
Bus: DCO Drum Kit Bus - (Folder)
Bus: Snare Bus - (Folder)

Master Bus: ReaEQ -> JS: 1175 Compressor -> JS: Master Limiter -> JS: Frequency Spectrum Analyzer Meter (Cockos)

Misc notes: All plugins came stock with REAPER. IR's used in ReaVerb; Big Gee's Lexicon 480L: "Autopark" and "Gated Ambience."

All sounds except for the inharmonic drum sounds were designed by others and tweaked by me. I watched a Cherry Audio video where I learned how to make drum sounds using white noise and subtractive synthesis and a transient controller plugin.

I tried manually counting all the plugins several times - kept getting different numbers. So this is my best effort for documentation. You get the idea, give or take. I need to take another swing at getting the Lokasenna LUA script to work.

Upload the track (and the detail) in Google Drive, Dropbox, etc, or send by email. Give the download link to someone of us(also me, if you want) and we can submit your song by Soundcloud (no matter the cover artwork).

I've been following the various discussions on the rules and I am quite happy to see the OSC is not so rigid and that rules can be creatively relaxed or more limiting from challenge to challenge. The "synth effects only" month is a good idea.

Welcome to the new OSCers, I first tried the OSC over five years ago and sometimes I still feel like a noob! I always have felt welcome though.

- My Entry -

https://soundcloud.com/chavapoulos/malt ... ze-osc-179

I came up with this "guitar in an organ amp" sound in Synister and composed this piece around it. It's really two instances of Synister layered: the main instrument sound and the "dirty" top layer, then some autofilter.

I used 28 instances of Synister in Ableton 10 Suite.

Ableton Plugins/Effects: EQ8 x 11; Limiter x11; Convolution Reverb x 8; Autofilter x 2; Echo x 2; Delay x 1; Utility x 1.

Third Party Plugins: Youlean Loudness Meter 2 Free and Loudmax Free.

Can you please say what synthesizer you used this month and share your drum patches here in this thread?

Hi guys,uploaded my track and link is:
I WRITE LINK AND IT NOT APPEARS???
https://soundcloud.com/verba/vpl2-4419- ... al_sharing
I was thinking make track Private to have time improve enough,but now don't know how change Private to Public/probably that is reason my track does not appears here /....

Used PSR-740,MKII,Nuendo 2,FLS 12,Reaktor 6,Cool Edit,MPC,AIR Compressor,Limiter,EQ,Delay

It's a bit strange. If you quote the original post by loord, then the URL appears (see above), but if you post it directly; link inserted here -> https://soundcloud.com/verba/vpl2-4419-rainy-dreams <-link inserted here; it doesn't show in the thread. The direct link is:

Code: Select all

https://soundcloud.com/verba/vpl2-4419-rainy-dreams

Even more strange, if I post it to myself in Signal, the link works correctly. Could be an SC privacy setting, but I'm not sure.

However, if this is their submission for this month, I can clearly hear drum and vocal samples (and likely some others).

Loord, if you are not familiar with the OSC rules, they are here : https://sites.google.com/site/kvrosc/rules

And if I quote my own post, the link magically appears... !

[MATCHER]

Hello! This is my 6th OSC challenge, and first of all, I wanted to say that I'm really happy something like this exist. Since the July last year, when I discovered this challenge, my music creating journey really picked up speed. It's great to have a place where we all can join and just make music (with some limitations, ofc ), listen to each other's tracks and talk about it.
That being said, this is my track for this month:

https://soundcloud.com/thematcher/echoe ... scrap-yard

Made in Studio One 6 with:
17x Vital
plus

Studio One stock effects:

Pro EQ
Compressor
Mixtool
Gate
Dual Pan
Groove Delay
Multiband Dynamics
Limiter
Analog Delay

Spectrum Meter

and
3rd party plugins:

LoudMax
GClip
OrilRiver
IVGI 2
Ozone Imager 2
Youlean Loudness Meter 2

I hope you enjoy it.
Cheers!
