Track submitted for the Dawesome Sound Ceremony in March 2025.
All sounds, as per rules, had to be sine waves and include the use of Dawesome distortion plugin Hate (https://www.dawesomemusic.com/plugins/hate).
In my case, I generated all sounds from Vital and run them through dedicated Hate channels with various automations in order to recreate somehow the feel of the "Doom Instrument" conceived by Mick Gordon

DOOMORPHIC [for Dawesome Sound Ceremony]

This month's synth is the rather interesting RipplerX by tiagolr. Bit of a physical modelling departure from usual. Once again, this effort has nothing to do with the title but probably best to keep fingers and toes inside the car at all times. So, this was assembled from a CPU straining 22 instances of RipplerX in Bitwig Studio 5.3.13. I quite liked the dry sound of this synth but even so, a bit of reverb and delay was applied. The following additional plugins were used:

- dpMeter5, Blue Cat Gain 3 and KClipZero on clip to zero duty
- NI Raum and Valhalla Supermassive for some reverb
- Bitwig Drum Machine
- Bitwig Compressor+
- Bitwig Delay+
- Bitwig EQ+
- TDR Kotelnikov
- TDR Nova

Midi for the percussion was generated with Modalics Beat Scholar while the non-percussion midi was generated with Scaler 3. Most patches were from init with some of the percussion based on the included patches.

Don't Let the Tortoise Bite

I am in after being convinced by Richard and some other equally friendly OSC friends. Thanks!

@Taron
Thank you so much for sharing your presets (at Discord). They were a good base to start from! :)

Thanks to all followers and last month's track liker. :)

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

When the call of the ancestors echoes through the night, the shaman knows that new trials are beginning to stir. 
Within the circle of forebears he finds that quiet, ancient force that prepares him for whatever is to come. 
From ember, breath, and remembered wisdom the Iron Runes (Járnrúnar) arise — symbols of transformation, forged for those willing to grow from within and step strengthened into a new dawn.

Wenn der Ruf der Vorfahren durch die Nacht hallt, weiß der Schamane, dass sich der Schleier vor neuen Prüfungen lichtet. 
Im Kreis der Ahnen findet er jene leise, uralte Kraft, die ihn befähigt, dem Kommenden standzuhalten. 
Aus Glut, Atem und erinnerter Weisheit entstehen die Eisenrunen (Járnrúnar) – Zeichen des Wandels, geschmiedet für jene, die bereit sind, aus der Tiefe heraus zu wachsen und gestärkt in eine neue Zeit zu schreiten.

nJoY.

Composition, Production, Sound Design done By myself.
2 Patches based on Preset, but modified. 
(The Melody is based on TSOMs great Duduking preset, but with added noise and roughness)

Only The Speech sound uses a self recorded sample that is linearly played, the sound is still strongly modified by Kontrast.

Image as usually made by me. 

Thnx to z.prime for final checking and some helpful tips.
