Dear all, My entry for the KVR One Synth Challenge 26 (http://sites.google.com/site/kvrosc/osc-26-zynaddsubfx): *The Infinite Repeat - The Speeding Train* http://linux.autostatic.com/images/2011-04/the_infinite_repeat-the_speeding_train.ogg As the One Synth Challenge rules dictate, all the instruments, sounds and noises are generated by ZynAddSubFX. Well, almost, because as Linux users we have some more choice than on other platforms. So I used 11 ZynAddSubFX-DSSI plug-ins in Qtractor together with 3 separate Yoshimi instances for the voice patches that use the PADsynth engine (apparently the DSSI plug-in can't handle those patches). I used seq24 to trigger everything and Qtractor for mixing and a bit of mastering. Some external effects were allowed, given they are freely available and don't alter the original sound (so no phasers, choruses etc.). For this track I used Calf gates, Calf EQ, SWH SC3 sidechain compressor, AMB panner, Calf Vintage Delay, Freeverb reverb, Invada Stereo compressor and a fast lookahead limiter. Voice patches I used: - SuperSaw (Paul Nasca) - Extreme (Will J. Godfrey) - Bass 2 (Paul Nasca) - Eeooww (Will J. Godfrey) - Drumkit (Paul Nasca, tweaked and layered, the snare sound consists of 4 or 5 different snare sounds) - Snare 1 (M?sterious) - Soft Kick (AutoStatic) - 8 Bit Car (M?sterious) - Soft Ahh (Will J. Godfrey) - Wind and Surf (Will J. Godfrey) - Binary Piano 2 (Paul Nasca) The track was composed and sequenced on the train when commuting to and from my work. Hence the title.
Very nice :) Has a definite EBM vibe, along the lines of VNV Nation or early-ish Covenant tracks.
It's awesome, too, to see that there were a few Linux-based entries to the KVR OSC challenge -- it'd be brilliant to see one of you take the prize. I was hoping to come up with something myself, but while I didn't get that far, I did at least get a chance to dig in to programming sounds on ZynAddSubFX, so I understand how it all fits together now :) It's definitely a fantastically powerful piece of software.
Thanks Leigh
Best, Jeremy _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
