My submission for OSC192 using Six Sines Synth by BaconPaul  Inspired by oriental music

Bedouin Dreams OSC192

For this OSC Any Synth Challenge, I chose the PS-3300, a beautiful software emulation of a late 1970s analogue polyphonic synthesizer from KORG. Cherry Audio developed this soft synth. Every sound you hear was created using the PS-3300. I tried to create an overall sound that matches the capabilities of a studio production in 1978. This is in honour of this beautiful synthesizer and its creators.

29 instances of PS-3300 by Cherry Audio 
Reverbs: Body &Soul by TSOM, VertiVerb by Audiority and VitaliumVerb
Delays: Deelay by Sixth Sample and Dual Delay X by UVI
EQ: Claro by Sonnox and Graphic EQ by Viator
Compression: FET-76 by Arturia
Enhancer: Type B by Audiothing
Mastering: Smart:Limiter and Smart:EQ4 by Sonible

Please note: I haven't used any distortion or saturation plugin to create the guitar tone. It's all been synthesized in PS-3300

Although OSC is currently celebrating its 200th anniversary, this track was created for the 198th challenge – a small tribute to the series that nevertheless captures the groove of the anniversary energy.

With 92 BPM, catchy harmonies, a concise bass hookline, and crisp kicks, FractiQ takes you straight to the dance floor. The melodic fractals weave together into a catchy tune that sticks in your mind.

Perfect for all fans of melodic music, hypnotic chords, and pulsating energy.

Johnkhf - Scaling the knife-edge ridge

My Submission for August 2025 OSC. 7 Tracks, powered by FLStudio and Quilcomm's Trout. Maximus for loudness.

Based on various incarnations of the Trautonium - a Synth Design originating in the 1930's. I chose Trout because I've wanted to try my hand as something very old and very strange with the plugin. And oh my - it's strange.

Cover is AI generated this time - Colors and some things fixed/added afterwards. My blender skills aren't THAT good. 

Early synths defined some of the sounds and vibes that powered Science Fiction, so I went with something that evoked a dangerous and strange job in space. Enjoy!
