One Synth Challenge #197:  Odin2 by TheWaveWarden

-------------------------------------------------------

This month was a real challenge!

When I looked at Odin, I came up with the idea of a true One (!) Synth Challenge – just a single instance, no excuses.
I dove deep into sound design and quickly realized: this would become a real borderline experience.

While endlessly tweaking, I kept discovering new sonic paths – sometimes inspiring, sometimes frustrating.
Odin could be pretty temperamental when dealing with MIDI, but in the end, I managed to shape something that feels raw, tense, and expressive.

So here it is: Grenzerfahrung (borderline experience) –
a track born from limitation, chaos, and way too many hours. ;)

NJoy. Any feedback welcome.

a500lochocloypochoclosa1000 - OSC197

Final, remixed submission for OSC 197. Idea for this track was partially inspired by Carl Craig's "Home Entertainment" off of his classic Detroit techno album Landcruising, but then I decided to add drums and it became a very different beast. Hope y'all like it!

This month is the turn of the rather lovely Odin2 by The Wave Warden. Another track with a title that is almost completely but not quite totally unrelated to the tune. When a cheese sammich just won't cut it, I present: Odin's BLT.

Back to Bitwig this month for another track created from a bunch of launcher clips adlibbed into a track in one take. A few other wee bits and pieces were added and here we are. All patches from init apart from maybe the kick which started out as a preset. There would have been some automation of Odin's parameters only there seems to be some sort of clash between Bitwig and Odin2 when using automation.

Anyhoo, 15 instances of Odin2 and some of the usual suspects:

- dpMeter5, Blue Cat Audio Gain 3 and KClip Zero on clip to zero duty
- kHs Stereo
- kHs Trance Gate
- OTT
- ZL Equalizer
- the ubiquitous Valhalla Supermassive
- TDR Kotelnikov and Nova ably assisted by KClip Zero on mastering duty
- percussion sequenced with Beat Scholar's MIDI rendered to the track
- arp MIDI generated by Eternal Arps

For those who care about such things:
-10.6 LUFS INT
-8.8 LUFS ST

Apologies for the repetitiveness: listening over and over and it still doesn't feel like six minutes to me so I didn't cut it down. Also there's nothing to induce a boyband to stand up from their stools...
