Nice sounds, nice movements. What a futuristic bird in it (for the Challenge rules:). Greets from germany:)

there is a definite sense of anticipation to the composition thru here - nice sounds and production, too.

Interesting birds - more musical than most - but also a little electronic sounding.

overall this is lacking a lot of treble compared to other entries

this is kept interesting throughout, nice work

great sounds, and the changes really took me on a journey, enjoyed this!

this was really pretty good. To me it had a Primus feel. Was kind of fierce competition though.  hope to see you in the OSC again.

Intro

MiJoFranDa - Neptune - Intro - OSC193



I HAD JUST TYPED OUT ALL THE DAMN INSTANCES AND CLOSED THE PROJECT **** YOU FIREFOX HAD TO CRASH THE TAB

Anyways this is my first time entering the contest!

If I remember properly there were 53 instances of Thorn, 3 instances of OTT, 41 instances of ReaEQ, 3 instances of ReEQ, 3 instances of Event Horizon Clipper, 1 ReaLimit, 2 JS Saturation, 1 ReaXComp, 2 instances of ReaGate, 1 instance of ReaComp, and I think thats everything. I used these just to make the song feel more full and to make the instruments blend together better. I also used the stereo width slider in the reaper tracks themselves a bit. Carla is just a bridge to run Windows plugins on Linux but it doesn't change the sound other than that, there are a lot of them though.

If you need project file, I can send it, created on Reaper 7.18 on Manjaro Linux

As always, a track that I made in the last days. The drums, choirs, distorted rhythm tracks and some of the SFX are made from scratch, the rest is a slightly modified stock presets. This synth reminds me a bit of old Massive (but with much better looking graphics) in terms of functionality and signal path. The glitch sequencer and arpeggiator are really handy to create interesting patterns. The effects section is pretty cool, especially the distortion module, an ultimate spice of the synth that I used (if not to say "abused") all the time. It can range from subtle saturation to a face melting tones. Also, this synth is great for making electronic drums and cymbals (though I would prefer to select the noise in the oscillator to be able to stack three noise sources in the single patch). This synth would definitely fit my setup.

31 instances used to create a track.

Vasabi

VVasabi (OSC#193)

Vitamin B12, also known as cobalamin, is considered the most chemically complex of all the vitamins.
The core of the molecule is a corrin ring, which is centered around a single cobalt atom.
The molecular formula is C63H88CoN14O14P.
Its molar mass is approximately 1355.38 g/mol, which is considerably larger and more complex than many other vitamins.

15 instances Thorn - all designed from init
DAW: Reaper

Thanks to Emikaela for the image - which I expanded upon.

Cobalamin

All ready, set to go...
Going Up There, to a better place.
A place at the window, comfortably looking down.
But instead you got a cold damp dump with bugs.
And just when you start to rest in peace,
it's time to dance to the tune of Dr.Voodoo
Who can't even play properly.

Next time, better go with ASHES2ASHES Funeral Services !

Stay Safe, Save Space !
And Rest Assured At Bargain Prices !

A minor silliness for One Synth Challenge 193, perpetrated in Reaper using:

DS Thorn - 28 instances for 13 instruments, 6 of those percussion. 
All single layer, the difference due to voice spitting. 
light clean-up duties performed by TDR Nova.
Widening of pads by A1 Stereo Control
A minor amount of delay applied to said pads with HY-Delay 4.
A smidge of reverb on the bass by Supermassive.
Snipping of drums done by CHOP & Flux Bittersweet.
Reverberated by several Protoverb and Supermassive, 
with the assistance of HOFA Pan & Delay, TDR Nova, A1 Stereo Control & JS MIxer.
At the master level, general polishing was done by TDR Nova, A1 Stereo Control & Bittersweet.
All louderizing by Limiter No6.
