Ambika PolyPack Two - 100 more new patches for Mutable Instruments Ambika

BoBSwanS · Ambika PolyPack Two - 100 more new patches for Mutable Instruments Ambika

"Available here
payhip.com/BoBSwanS

100 more fresh patches for the Ambika - 6 voice hybrid poly synth from Mutable Instruments.

Pads, Keys, Drones and more done in the usual BoB SwanS style!
I lean quite hard into the digital side of the synth in this set

My own Ambika is a 6xSVF build with the latest YAM firmware installed,
All the patches use the standard LPF so will be compatible with the majority of Ambika's out there, but you may need to install the YAM firmware to get use of the extra Oscillators included.

I programmed these patches in full 6 Voice poly mode and I have also included the MULTI file needed to configure your own Ambika to the same settings. No sequences or arpeggios are included but some patches do use the step sequencer for modulation.

Install instructions are included in the zip file

*********************************************************************
This is a 10 min demo of about 20 of the more expressive patches in the set. They are either played (very badly) or roughly sequenced in Ableton.
They all have the same reverb applied, Tegeler Raummaschine Reverb at 20% Wet

Enjoy

This was my first test of Opal, I plan on doing another stream soon with it and will include my other Fors Devices. I managed 50 mins without any audio or video issues so I decided to save it for posterity :) (One awful noise at 49.14 when I select a corrupted sample, Sorry)"

The Gentle Touch Vol 4 Demo - Sequential Prophet 12 Patches by BoB SwanS

BoBSwanS · The Gentle Touch Vol 4 Demo - Sequential Prophet 12 Patches by BoB SwanS

"Another pack of Prophet 12 patches programmed by BoB SwanS.

When Sequential announced at the start of the year that they had finally decided to retire the Prophet 12 Module I was inspired by all the online chatter and tributes and jumped into making another bank of patches.

As usual quite a few of them use per note modulation and Mod wheel for movement and most of them are not your usual bread and butter patches, But you probably know that already.

99 patches, Including splits, stacks and single patches.
This time I decided I wanted to go a bit further with the Linear FM and Waveshape\Morph side of things and made lots of evolving pads and keys for you to drift off with, I included a couple of Arp's and lead synths just to even things out a bit.

Available now via Sellfy sellfy.com/bobswans/p/the-gent…r-prophet-12-vol-4/

Discount code "sequential" available for one week
This brings the price down to £10
Full price will go up to £14.50

Volca Modular x Bastl Kastl 1.5

Published on Jun 6, 2020 BoBSwanS

"I got both of these patched together and used the keyboard to play some droning notes through vast amounts of delay and reverb.
Both units are modulating each other and both have dedicated audio in's to Ableton. I added GSI 201 mk2 and some 2cAudio B2 for effects"

HG Sounds Group Buy for K6 Demo

Published on May 24, 2020 BoBSwanS

"I recorded an hour of me just droning about with the current Wavetable synths available in the HomeGrown Sounds Kontakt 6 Groupbuy Lvl 5,
Mostly just hitting the RANDOM button and seeing what happens.
This is the edited version.

$24.99 for everything listed at this link
https://hgsounds.com/product/serenity...

It's an insane bargain considering we are only halfway through.
These 4 Wavetable synths are fantastic

The Serenity Group Buy focuses primarily on the Wavetable support added in Kontakt 6 as well as providing an extensive collection of Wavetables. The Wavetables were made by sampling a Novation Peak, Virus TI as well as various other Synths. Initially 700 Wavetables are included and they are also compatible with any Synth that can load Serum Wavetables. A couple of Midi Instruments as well as a Euclidean Drum Machine are also planned."

Korg Monologue Patches by BoB SwanS

Published on Oct 5, 2019 BoBSwanS

70 patches for the Korg Monologue
Including Bass,Duo,Fx,Lead and Perc sounds.
The majority of patches use the Mod slider
to create variation while playing.

Available for "Pay what you want"
Here https://sellfy.com/p/lchek1/

The patches are available in Sysex and Moglib formats

This demo goes through over half of the 70 patches included.
The video was recorded in one take and edited, It includes sequences and
patches that are played live (badly) and tweaked.

The audio on the demo is recorded with
the Monologue master volume at 12 O'clock
into the line in of my audio card. No EQ is used
but I do use reverb on all the patches and some delay
on the lead and fx patches. I use Madrona Labs
Aaltoverb and Soundtoys Echoboy.

Modor NF-1, MonoLogue, Nord Lead 2, Xils StiX Test with iPad

Published on Feb 24, 2019 BoBSwanS

"So I have had this iPad 2 days now and here is my 1st test of Midi Out and Ableton Link using Audiobus to route Fugue Machine and Xynthesizr to my synths.

3 playheads from Fugue Machine to my Modor NF1-M
and one to the Monologue.
Xynthesizr is playing some chords into my Nord Lead 2 and I have SpaceCraft Granular playing back some whistling I recorded in with the iPad Mic.
Each of the hardware synths has it's own audio track in Ableton with some delay and reverb and I have a compressor on the master.
I am also using a Lemur editor to control the Modor NF1-m
Drums are supplied by Xils StiX
and It's all synced with Ableton Link over Wifi."
