I'm sorry to hear about your loss

Thank you, Peter.

Sorry for coming with negative vibes. Actually i'm fine. Last month was the anniversary so got gloomy. Now going better. It won't rain forever.

Thanks for the welcome back. I will try to connect with you all again.

No worrys, we all have to carry our bits and it's better if we all help each other and if it's only writing a line like z-prime did ... may be OSC is exactly what the universe has prepared for your support ... so, let's see

Yeah, good to see you again Irion, times heals. Never cures. Making some music for us is just the ticket. Lots of newcomers. The older ones are still around. (Just made my 10 years of consecutive entries!!).

Hi all,

i made it! Here is my submission:

"In the annals of modern music lore, there lies a story about a self-proclaimed maestro, who in truth orchestrated disarray with every note he played. A symphony of chaos conducted by someone, known far and wide by his infamous nickname: Charlatan"

https://soundcloud.com/impedancemusic/c ... charlatan3

This is a little bit more different than my usual entries allthough similar:
I wanted to try doing Drum And Bass with a little bit of my own touch. You can argue about the little bit. Also i tried to implement a "Speech" via MIDI for the track which turned out terri... well enough for an experiment. It still needs some work but i have to admit my that my current skill level just ends there.

Technical Stuff:
DAW: FL Studio 21 Producer Edition
Instances: 31 x Charlatan3
BPM: 159.097
All sounds created from scratch, as usual.

My first time to partake in One Synth Challenge
Here's my entry for Charlatan 3 this month. Kudos to BlauKraut for creating a quite versatile synth!

7 instances of Charlatan
DAW: Ableton 12
Free Effects used: LoudMax Limiter (https://loudmax.blogspot.com/)

This month's effort is created in Bitwig 5.1.8. All patches created from init. No clouts were cast during the production of this track (as May isn't out yet...)

Genre says 'ambient' as that was my intent before I started but as usual the month's synth lead me down a different path.

14 instances of Charlatan with the following additional plugins:

- the usual clip to zero collection of dpMeter5, Blue Cat's Gain 3 and KClip Zero
- kHs Stereo
- kHs Trance Gate
- NI Raum
- TDR Nova
- TDR Kotelnikov
- Youlean Loudness Meter

The following Bitwig Plugins were also used:

- EQ2
- EQ 5
- Note Repeats
- Auto Pan (Tool)

Chord sequences generated in Scaler 2 before copy/pasting the MIDI.

Hello everyone,

This is a short piece I put together in a hurry. It is also my first entry into OSCs, so be kind in your judgments

Made in Cakewalk, 10 instances of Charlatan, epicVerb and W1 Limiter as the only additional FX.

Not gonna lie, that speech thing is sick af. How did you do it?

Here's my submission for the month. A bit different - tried to use it as a bit of a mixing experiment, but got carried away towards the end of the track and probably let it slip a bit. Keen for feedback.
