Name: Tribute by SahaaThyva
Duration: 6 min 23 s
Description: My entry to the 2023 October Libre Music Challenge : 7 HELMS and 16 open source Fx involved. Live performed using BespokeSynth then mixed using Ardour.

Short and simple demo track with OctaSine (https://www.octasine.com/) FM synth VST2 plugin, using  only sounds from the plugin (10 instances).

Added chorus, reverb and compression from LV2 plugins in the DAW (Ardour 7 on Linux).

All sounds programmed from scratch by myself.

Chill Time with OctaSine

This one started as an exercise in (sound-)desgining Deadmau5 plugs, progressed into vocal processing with pitch shifting and linear predictive coding and finally - though a copy and paste accident - it dropped into rumble techno 😁
