I somehow only just discovered the OSC(!) - so good that this excellent concept happens on a regular basis. And wow, some really nice work and creative use of the synth here. It does seem like the bar gets set high early on! A challenge indeed.

A life-changing occurrence, undoubtedly! Be sure to check out Discord, lots more activity there than the forums these days.

Okay! Here it is! I saw OXID, had to do this month because I liked it a lot when I tried it.

Four Tracks, No effects, Powered by FLStudio and Oxid.

Another Spacey theme - this one working off of my previous experience with OXID using more complicated composition. Today was a lot of work, but I got through it and like what I have. Looking forward to losing the loudness wars!

I just posted this on the discord, but asking here too in case any forum-only users have any suggestions:

Oxid is interesting. I played with a bunch the first day, then decided to wait until winter break to dive in. But one thing that's been bothering me...maybe someone here knows. I made a bass drum sound, saved the preset, and saved the session (Reaper), but upon reload, it sounded different. Is this an Oxid thing or a CLAP thing? It's never happened before with any other plugin.

It didn't sound a LOT different, just a bit. Enough that I wasn't able to reproduce whatever I had done :/

Post

I guess my main question is whether VST3 and CLAP save differently by the host (Reaper). If they should be the same, then I won't trouble myself. I did a little searching online, but I couldn't find anything that suggested there should be any difference from the host perspective. So I'm guessing maybe it's an inconsistency in Oxid. Thanks in advance for any ideas!

Thanks! Rather overwhelming number of options there but I'll be investigating.

Re inconsistency ... I did find that sometimes (not all) a saved preset did not load exactly the same.

It certainly happens as I was very surprised when the sound was not what I had before (a deep bass!). :-( One click and it was fixed - can't remember what the click was though :-(

Once fixed I forgot about it. -:) :party:

My Entry. Holidays are Coming and likely will not have much time to play with this any more.

4 instances of Oxid using pretty much the stock string settings and a little of the delay.

Only outboard track effect is ZL EQ attempting to do a little notching but not very successful.

Frank CS and ReaLimit on the Master.

DAW is Reaper

Keeping it simple this month - wouldn't be surprised that the synth was somewhat inspired by Switched on Bach so here's my hamfisted go at that sound. I assume Bjorn knows more about that.

I have to admit that this session with Oxid is being really fun for me. I plan to get some decent percussions even if I have to make thousands of layers for each sound.

Thanks! Glad I'm not the only one. I guess I'll actually have to pay attention to what knobs I'm tweaking lol. Oxid forcing me to level up. Quite clever actually! 🤓

Been a long while for me.

Nothing ground breaking here but I was really irritated w/ the limitations of the synth so decided to try some generative thing in VCV Rack. All sound is from Oxid in the host module, automation provided by the ShapeMaster and recorded out to wav via the Recorder module. I had fun with it anyway in a month where I would haven't enjoyed working w/ the synth otherwise.

Here is my entry into this Synth Challenge. I found making the drum and perc sounds with the Oxid plugin fun but fragile. I wanted to explore trying to make deep bass and use this synth for a lot of low end since I normally would never use this synth for low end. That actually made this fun. A challenge in itself. It's all the Oxid, what a blast! :D :wink: :love: :tu:
