"Sequential Fourm – Kinda Ambient
I have playing around with my new synthesizer the Sequential Fourm. I decided that I would create an Ambient style song using only presets on the Fourm.
I’m Not sure it really is all that Ambient, since it does have an identifiable lead line. Anyway, it was fun to create.
Enjoy!
For the Techies
Everything was recorded through an Allen&Heath ZEDi10 and into Fender Studio Pro 8.
Fourm: The signal chain is fairly straightforward: Fourm, into TC Electronic Plethora X3 (stereo output), into a pair of SSL SixChannels, into a Drawmer MQ-2 EQ/Compressor/Saturator, into a Lindell 77X Compressor and into an Allen&Heath ZEDi10 Interface/Mixer and recorded in stereo directly into my DAW (Fender Studio Pro).
I created five tracks, using five presets, which I messed around with, both on the Fourm and also by applying some effects in my DAW. I didn’t use the TC Electronic Plethora X3, since I wasn’t sure that I wanted to “bake in” the effects.
The Presets I used were all in Factory Bank 2:
P69 OhmDroner – Background Chord Progression
P38 Wubbly - Bass
P5 Cubic Bells – Surprise – Bells!
P9 IDM Builder – A kind of rhythm
P80 Velvet Horns – I’m not sure this sounds like horns, but this is the lead line.
