A track like a fantastic oriental tale. So many different and great sounds which compliment each other perfectly. And an excellent 3-dimensional soundscape. I'm impressed!

Amongst a sea of trance in this month's OSC this is a most welcome change!

Really original track and definitely one of my faves this month

this is so great! awesome drone sounds and exotic arrangement and melodies. Love it!

Grand sounding and even cinematic, this is a very accomplished piece and one of my favourites :)

robelanator - Dust Off [OSC186]

An entry for One Synth Challenge 186 at KVR Audio

DAW: Reaper
Synths: U-he Tyrell N6 (24) &  Zebralette 2 (2). Seventeen ( voice-split ) patches, from scratch as always , including six percs and four FX.  Assisted by TDR Nova ( general nip-and-tuck channelstrip duties ) , ReaDelay, HY-Delay , Bittersweet ( softening a delay, )  Kazrog KClip ( drumbus ) , and BlueArp

Reverb buses: MuVerb, Oril River, and Protoverb. Pre-emphasised, de-emphasised, shaped, compressed, softened and panned  by TDR Nova, Flux Bittersweet and HOFA SYS Pan.

Finders, Keepers

A gospel tune using just one free synthesizer for the monthly KVR OSC contest. Edit - it was actually two synths this month.

Spridgeon - Lord Have Mercy On My Golden Locks

Made For KVR OSC 186 Any 2 Synths - I used Nakst Apricot - 15 Instances and Odin 2 - 1 Instance
DAW Mulab 9.5
DAW Fx: limiters, High and low pass filters, parametric eq, stereo splitter.
Third Party Fx: analyser - Voxengo Span, Voxengo Marvel GEQ.

Basically I was unable to take part in the Apricot round, so this was my chance. It's based around a 5 beat arpeggio I created with this synth. I thought I might use more of Odin 2, but ended up using it just for the snare.
This track is dedicated to my lovely Jenny who in spite of many current ailments managed to walk several miles of difficult coastal path to get the photo of a waterfall for my cover pic. :)

Created with "Synth1" virtual synthesizer. 38 instances used to create a track.

My setup: 38 instances of Synth1 and Synth1 (and Tritik "Krush" as my "full 11" effect).

The VST legend. Still in beta (more than 20 years already). Lightweight, sleek and versatile. And I found it best for making extremely distorted sounds.

You need to crank up the volume for this.
