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.

Journey Matters

Journey Matters ["one synth challenge" edit - Surge XT]

In fields of freedom, wild and bright,
A spirit danced with untamed light.
But wires wove 'round her limbs so tight,
And screens replaced her starry flight.

The TV hummed its hypnotic song,
Violence echoed, shadows long.
Her wings grew heavy, once so strong,
Till free spirit's flame was finally gone...

All instruments and voices have been designed in Surge XT without any use of samples. Happy 15th anniversary to OSC!

This is my entry for the 182th edition of the KVR One Synth Challenge where all sounds were generated using the Charlatan 3 VST plugin using mix of free included effects in Ableton Live 11.
I hope you enjoy it and feel free to offer any comments on how I might improve it if I were to do a remix for a wider release.

This is my entry for the KVR One Synth Challenge for September, 2016. All sounds made using only the (amazing) Tyrell N6 synth from U-he, no samples or recordings. If you don't own Tyrell N6 you should go get it right now, it's free via U-he's website. If you like the track, please give it a vote in the KVR forum. Cheers.

FEATURED: Lisa Bella Donna - La Nodriza

This is my Submission to the OneSynthChallenge #142 featuring Mat Tytels new Synth Vital.
I did all the patches myself. Only the basedrum is a preset that I have tweaked to my liking. Even the "words" are synthesized. Base is Vitals Text-to-Wavetable facility, took the results and tweaked them a little.

That Is What We Want (Vital Signs Mix)

All sounds created by the INSANE synth Vital!!! Produced in Reason 11. This is my submission for the KVS One Synth Challenge #142 featuring VITAL! Matt Tytel, you are a CHAMPION. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK ON THIS AMAZING SYNTHESIZER!!!

I wanted to keep all sound design to Vital's internals as much as possible and only use 3rd party stuff if I absolutely couldn't part with it. 

DAW: Reason 11 
27 instances of Vital
Reason stock effects:
MClass Maximizer - On main output
1 x ECF-42 Low Pass Filter - used all 3 filters on one patch and needed a fade 
2 x Combinators - for cv automation for master level (couldn't just automate master level on Vital for some reason but placing it inside a combinator gave access to some parameters that could be modulated but not directly recorded with normal automation)

Third party plugins:
Gclip (Free!!)
Pusher - Waves - On Main Output
3x Pump - Sonicbits IO - for lazy side-chaining
1 TSAR-1R - Softube - as Aux Send for reverb
