Opal Fruits, Making beats from scratch with Fors Opal Max For Live Drum/Synth

video upload by BoBSwanS

"Live stream from Twitch January 8th 2023. Just a test of Opal https://opal.fors.fm/

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)"

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."

Reaktor Blocks Distorted Drone Experiment #1

Published on Sep 1, 2017

"Here is a little self running patch i created while i was trying to re-skin\mod some blocks.

The main tool in this sound experiment is Cal Scott's DOOM VERB
from this collection of blocks https://www.native-instruments.com/fo...

I also used several blocks from the user library

Modded Kodiak Seq
https://www.native-instruments.com/en...

RScale
https://www.native-instruments.com/en...

SimpleMan Synth by Matthew Friedrichs
https://www.native-instruments.com/en...

I also re-skinned Cal Scott's Complex Oscillator

And I also use a very basic block version of this delay, I ported this one to a Block myself, that's why it looks so rubbish

This demo goes through over half of the 70 patches included.

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."

Tharsis for U-he Diva by BoB SwanS

Published on Sep 10, 2019 BoBSwanS

"A new bank of presets for U-he Diva.
This bank includes 120 Patches:

Classic and Contemporary
Arps, Basses, Chords, FX, Leads, Pads, Perc and Poly Synths with lots of Mod wheel and (Poly or Mono)Aftertouch Modulation.

This set is inspired by many things, Including The Solar System,
Psychedelia, Science Fiction, IDM and Ambient Music amongst many other things.
The main inspiration is the Synth Itself, Having the ability
to make a hybrid Mono or Poly voice synth with the quality available from U-he products is enough to send any sound designer into overdrive..............

This is a short selection of a few personal favourite Patches,
Some are played live and some are sequenced.
The demo's have no fx other than the ones built into Diva and the Audio is not Mastered or EQ'd in any way
