James Mullen had his first day, or rather his first night in the London police force on that foggy 31 August 1888. He was excited and proud at the same time and he was scared... He shouldn't be afraid, he was a policeman after all! Nevertheless, an uneasy feeling crept over him that simply could not be suppressed. He didn't like being out at night and yet he tried not to let on that he would rather be at home in his bed than prowling through the darkest streets of London in the middle of the night... 

He turned into Buck's Row and suddenly stopped... ‘What's that...?’ He walked slowly towards the small pile in the alley. It was dark and he couldn't see his hand in front of his eyes. Only now did he realise that he had not yet lit his lamp, even though his instructor had told him to do so again and again. 

He lit his lamp and shone it in the direction of the heap on the road and immediately wished he hadn't. Staring in fear and horror, he couldn't believe what he was seeing and without realising it, he cried like he had never cried before in his life... 

‘You'll never forget your first day at the police station’ said his mum with a smile as he said goodbye to her. She was right...

Because of their great love for the nature of their planet, the inhabitants of Ottakota, familiar from almost all over the universe, were the last to approach the development of interstellar flights. The first launch of the Chaika Starship was celebrated on all planets of the United Space. 

As is their custom, ottakotas recorded all important events in the music language. This is the first part of the narrative received from a starship all the way to the outer asteroid belt, where the direct signal was interrupted. Perhaps we will receive the following parts only by subspace transmission or from the next planet, which is included in the list of visits to the ship's log of the Chaika Starship.

I think it sounds great. Really happy with it. But happy to hear why you didn't like it.
I'm happy to share the opera lady patch if anyone wants. Similar patch can come close to an abnormally realistic violin imo. Or maybe I'm just losing it.

OSC#187: nakst's "ExtraBold"
DAW: MuLab (www.mutools.com)
Instances: 28
FX: Auburn Sounds Panagement 2 (free), TD-Nova, OTT, LoudMax, Dimension Expander

In fact, no Delay or Reverb plugin was used (not even with Panagement; wet on 0%), but only the internal FX within ExtraBold. Reverbs in there are a bit long and there's literally no control over them other than wetness. Curious concept. But, hey, it all works quite well for its simplicity. All in all, pretty neat little synth with just enough control to get plenty of complexity and variety. I like it! 😎👍

Mostly tracks for the KVR One Synth Challenge.
Some of my newer music happens under the name Wrenharmonic.

If I've taken down an old track, it's probably still available somewhere. (or you can just ask me for the file)
