One Synth Challenge #207: Deimos by Tom Trnk (Voting Started!)

[violator_alba]

What to say about this? It is what it is. Watch out for the rather loud end and the perhaps dubious artistic decision to use something that sounds like a triangle towards the end...
Anyhoo, this was assembled in Tracktion Waveform 13 Pro with 20 instances of Deimos. The following plugins also put in an appearance:

- the clip to zero trio of dpMeter5, Blue Cat Gain 3 & KClip Zero
- Polarity MD
- ZL Equalizer 2
- Tracktion TEqualiser
- kHs Stereo
- Valhalla Supermassive
- NI Raum
- TDR Nova
- TDR Kotelnikov

Aside from the hats, all patches are from init.

Thanks to Cptn Silverpants for the title inspiration...

His broken spaceship landed in a field of purple flowers. Nothing Above 10k - a totally normal name for a robot on the planet of K-Lo-Herts - stepped out of the wreck and scanned the perimeter. In the far distance he could see a group of human people gathered around a massive array of loudspeakers. The magnetic bands in his cassette head began spinning as he started moving towards the crowd. What a peculiar cacophony of sounds!

So after doing a heap sounds that felt inspiring to me, I had a song idea and it turned the way the little orchestra I gathered out of this really wanted to scream somehow. So here's my submission :

Hello all
Here is my contribution to this edition of OSC.
I have to say I had a lot of fun creating the composition with this synth. It all started with accidentally creating a famous laser-harp sound (originally Elka Synthex). It somehow kicked me into creating something with it.
A bit disappointed with the lack of unison (likely to be added to paid version). Also have some troubles with the aux oscillator. Mainly with S&H mode, but I found other modes I wasn't able to decipher. Also, I failed to create anything useful/original with FM/AM mods. Granted, likely due to my limited skillset.

Anyway, kind of old-school melodic electronica again. Hope you're gonna enjoy it.
