Best Ambient Synth Shootout #39: Yamaha VL7 - Song 1


Published on Sep 25, 2017 Christian's Sonic Spaces

"This is the first song with the Yamaha VL7 Version 2. It's a monophonic synthesizer based on physical modelling algorithms.

I used only the internal effects for the recording except for the melody line that used the following FX chain:
VL7 - TC Electronic Mimiq - DigiTech Obscura- DigiTech Polara.

The signal goes via a small Behringer mixer straight into the pc.

To create the complete song I recorded consecutively several stereo tracks. The final song was then mastered with just a bit EQ and compression on some tracks and some limiting on the master track.

Well, I decided to go back to the basics, but at the same time make something useful for the synth community and do a kind of competition (I like competitions;-). What's my best synth for ambient music :-)"

"This is the second song with the Yamaha VL7 Version 2. It's a monophonic synthesizer based on physical modelling algorithms. The song is a kind of noisy dark ambient drone. Yes, the VL7 can do otherworldly, industrial soundscapes as well ;-)

I used for the recording the following FX chain:
VL7 - Alesis Ampliton - Alesis Philtre - TC Electronic Mimiq - DigiTech Obscura- DigiTech Polara. The used fx varied depending on the recorded track.

The signal goes via a small Behringer mixer straight into the pc.
