20 instances with almost entirely just surge xt fx. On 6/4/22 I did upload a much shorter version. You can certainly vote based on the older longer version or whatever you like. Just really felt like it didn't deserve the extra 90 seconds. Didn't want to take that bit extra of peoples' time. ..Gradually whittled it down from 6 minutes to 3. It just seems to take more than a month for things to percolate in my mind. Sorry.

OSC159 Time Laughs (Surge) 41/57 72%

For the One Synth Challenge

Uses One (1) (!) instance of Surge XT.
Uses MEqualizer, Reacomp and Realimit 

Fun fact: The sound you hear starting around the 03:50 mark, comes out of just a single _oscillator_. Surge is nuts man.

Dakkra - Nightmare Reaper (KVROSC 159)

Composed and produced for the KVR One Synth Challenge 159, Surge XT.

26 instances of Surge, with all effects in the Surge patches. 

Cakewalk DAW processing:
- Gain on buses, for mixing.
- EQ on final bus: High pass, low pass, small bump at 3kHz.
No compression, etc.

**Surge Storm** is an exploration of sound design in physical instruments and sounds. These are all my own patches, some of which are included in Surge. Most of the physical instruments here mimic generation and body resonances researched from real instruments, driven by controllers for mechanical setup and playing actions. This gives me a dynamic instrument that responds in a variety of articulations and styles, without needing samples.

Here, I've used a few time signatures. It has a wide dynamic range and frequency coverage, so you'll get the most from ideal listening conditions. Unfortunately, the thunder sound has lost a lot of its character here in the lo-fi Soundcloud playback. The download will give you the best experience.

Comments and crits appreciated.
