Hello everyone, I hope you all enjoy my submission. The ring modulator and waveshaper are used for ringmod sidechaining, I didn’t use them to mangle or alter any sound. I was originally using the Kilohearts Compactor, but I found out that it messes with the signal quite a bit. I hope it doesn’t break the rules.

My contribution
My Spire
Daw : Reason Studio

I used commercial presets (Aura, Bellatrix)
No plugins used, no DAW effects used. Just Spire.
Glad to be involved. See you soon.

Happy 200th, OSC !!!
Time's up for me, so I'm gonna leave this orphaned at the doors of OSC now. Feed it some juicy fives if you can. It still has to grow.
https://soundcloud.com/elex101/el3v80r83d
Made in Reaper 7, using MiniKORG, by KORG. Which is quirky and fun, as well as very high quality. 28 instances for 17 instruments, the difference is down to voice splitting.
Additionally, on instrument tracks: HOFA System Gain, HOFA System Pan, U-he Colour Copy, TDR Nova, U-he Satin.
On reverb buses: U-he Protoverb, Valhalla Supermassive, aided by Flux Bittersweet, TDR Nova, HOFA System Pan, HOFA System Delay, JS Mixer, and A1 Stereo Control.
On the master bus: TDR Nova, A1 stereo Control, TDR infrasonic, TDR elliptical, Softube Chandler Curvebender, UAD Ampex ATR-102, Flux Bittersweet, and TDR Limter 6 GE

Here is my entry for this round:
https://soundcloud.com/the-broken-machi ... ace-sirens
This track is made for the One Synth Challenge #198, using Dawesome Myth.
Most sounds are created completly from scratch by my self. Exceptions see below.
DAW: Ableton 12
11x Myth
Self made Patches don't use Instrument Samples as Iris even though that is a great feature of myth,
I was exploring the a more traditional synth like side of Sounddesign with Myth:
4x Init Iris (sinewave)
1x self resampled Iris (resampled from selfmade a no Iris MythPatch )
1x TriSawPulse WT selfmade
3x No Iris.
Preset: 2x OuterWorlds - ExpressiveE (Adjusted - and any modulation played via MPE)
Ableton:
8x MPEControl
14x Utility
1x Glue Compressor
1x Limiter
1x Multiband Compressor
1x EQ8
2x Neold U2A
6x Ozone 10 - Dynamic EQ
1x Arturia Bus Peak
1x Dawesome Hate (Ott, Saturator, Compressor, EQ)
1x Dawesome Hate (Compressor)
1x Dawesome Hate (OTT, Saturator, Clouds, Compressor)
good luck everyone.

I went with Apricot for this round, which has become a go-to for me when composing.
https://soundcloud.com/wrenharmonic/won ... me-with-me
Composed in Reaper with
28 instances of Apricot
10 ReaEQ
2 kHs Transient Shaper
2 kHs Compactor
1 MStereoExpander
1 NP1136 Peak Limiter
and a bunch of tone shaping on master, for some reason
TDR SlickEQ -> Airwindows SubTight, Air4, StoneFire, Interstage -> LimiterNo6 -> Lamb
Also using Wilsonic MTS-ESP as my MTS-ESP host.
