Cool bkgd chords thru here.  Really, really well done!

If I wouldn't know that I'm listening to a OSC song, I might just think that this came straight from a jazz record. Absolutely amazing!

The most naturally sounding instruments! Great work as always!

Great sounds, especially percussions and electric guitar - excellent cymbals, expressively played and authentic sounding.

Just saw the OSC results. Congrats. This is really impressive.

Messing around with some EWI Cello and Flute.

Rellik - Out Here Again (OSC entry)

Here we gooo! This is my first OSC entry. With this piece, I experimented mashing together some basic EDM tendencies with weird speed funk drums and an arcade shoot-em-up style composition. This was a fun challenge; limitation seems to be my best source of inspiration so far. This whole process taught me a lot about what I should be focusing on in terms of song structure and sound design. Now it's time to dig into other Surge submissions and see what crazy stuff I didn't think of!

I used 33 instances of Surge. 9 of them are for reinforcement or double-tracking, though, so it's more like 24. All creative FX are from Surge's FX alone.

Channel FX used: 5x Fruity Limiter (2 for light comp on kick/snare and 3 for sidechain), 1x Fruity Parametric EQ2 for some gentle mix highpassing, 2x Maximus to beef up the drums and bass busses a little. I tried to keep it mostly barebones to maintain the feel of Surge.

Track for OSC, a monthly music and sound design contest at KVRaudio.com. All sounds created using the virtual synthesizer Qyuoo in Ableton Live 10.

Time Dilation (OSC 123 Qyuoo)

Another track, done. Truly defying the odds. 
So! The Qyooo was a challenging plugin to use! Took me a while to wrap my head around its workflow. It's reeeally tough to use for percussion, but it was a blessed and humbling exercise in sound design. My filter game has strengthened. The oscillators are pretty simple, most of the focus is on the filter modulations.

Texturally, it's a bit simple from the chiptune mindset, so I went much more melodic than I usually go to compensate. Learned a bunch, but I'm not sure if I'm satisfied... Kind of fits together strangely.

I used 39 instances of Qyooo, but 11 are for either doubling or lazy modulation, so it's really more like 28. FX used: Fruity PMEQ2, Fruity Limiter and Fruity Reverb 2 on most, with the addition of Maximus on bass bus. In the box, bay beeeee
