Welcome to a dark, apocalyptic, ambient synth drone soundscape.

Lots of asynchronous modulations with warm saturation and distortion, noise, ring modulation, frequency shifting, long warping delays and reverbs… This drone uses only three monophonic instances of Brainworx Knifonium, accompanied by a fourth instance with a bell like patch, that occasionally hits into the dystopian darkness.

All three drone tracks are triggered with only one note and then run without any further input, apart from a bit of automation and  MIDI LFO modulation.

Even as this drone has a lot going on over time and is quite busy and dirty, it feels somehow calming and good for concentrated work and study. Let me know what you think.

Synths & Effects used:
- Knifonium and Master Desk by Brainworx Audio and Plugin Alliance
- Valhalla Delay and Room by ValhallaDSP
- Rackmode Graphic EQ and Frequency Shift by Cherry Audio
- Gulfoss by SoundTheory
- Apple Logic Pro and some stock plugins (MIDI Modulator, Distortion II, Channel EQ, Vintage Tube EQ)
