BTW I don't think it's been linked a couple months. Here's the OSC discord: https://discord.gg/tTmX32qA

Nice tracks so far by the way by everyone.

My entry this month "HEXAMED Delirium" - Single Instance (my first time!)

1 Single Instance of SixTraq
All 6 Traqs monophonic

Having just 6 monophonic tracks reminded me of my OctaMED days on my Amiga. Hence the HEXAMED.

Also - a nod at the end to the "Hit Em" meme (212bpm 5:4)

DAW: Reaper
OrilRiver Reverb
Dead Duck: Delay, Filter, Autopan, Limiter
JS Saturation
JS Stereo Field Manipulator
kHs Gain
ReaXComp
Limiter No6
SPAN, YouLean Loudness Meter
And....OTT (First time user!)

Updated to less muffled version - thanks to Emp and Taron's sage advice.

Here's my entry. I hope the sound effect at the beginning is recognizable to the Limey contingent here - it took me an outrageous amount of time to create, and it's still pretty far from the original. Not surprising, I suppose, since the original was created by dragging a key across a piano soundboard and slowing it down!
Another iconic space sound appears in several places and at the very end. The more, ah, mature contestants might recognize it...

I struggled with the quirks of this synth (missing notes, velocity oddness, general weirdness), probably user error, then decided to just let the synth do its thing and try to write around it, hoping the random 'features' would add to the charm...

Here is my contribution after I had a lot of trouble automating the synth. At first I thought, let's stop this madness, since with the CLAP version I had no idea how to automate synth parameters within Bitwig Studio. So I tried to get around that by automating effects and automating panning and volume instead. Could be my noobiness

Unfortunately I don't have time anymore to perfect the kick drum for example, but I enjoyed participating again.

Track details:
Title: Circuit Pusher
DAW: Bitwig Studio 5.2.5.
Six Traq v1.04 instances used: 14
Effects used: native bitwig: delay+, delay-1, delay-2, reverb, filter+, eq+ and some saturator for the kick, for master: compressor+, eq+ and peak limiter.
third party: TAL-Verb4 (for the kick), Valhalla Supermassive (3 times on aux send)

Well done there, the Radiophonic Workshop and Delia would be delighted by this! BTW, my actor step-grandfather was in the "Romans" episode of that show! I still get royalties.

"The full moon rises tonight. This place gives me chills and my hands are shaking, but I feel bold. Everything is prepared for our ritual... But it will be incomplete without you."

43 instances used to create a track.

As an emulation it does have the character of a budget analog synth. It is capable of producing some thick unison basses and leads. It is also capable of creating complex percussion sounds from a single patch (the envelopes are not very flexible though). The polyphonic patches are not convincing enough, like a very primitive string machine or a "preset synthesizer" keyboard. It forced me to do a lot of double (quad) tracking, plus a weird "envelope stealing" thing, even if you have spare voices. The good thing is that CPU consumption is very low, as always with Full Bucket synths.

Hi again
Here is my track for this month
Congratulations to Fullbucket for this plugin, it was hard to tame in the begining but finally i got the sounds i wanted (although there are functionalities that I don't fully understand yet like the sequencer but it doesn't matter for now, i will read the manual i promise )

Ok let's go, here's another trance, melodic house track or whatever you want to call it. Originally i made the song in another key but i changed it for a better kick combination.
