    Like I said, you're a musical swot. I'd like to have the time to go back to music theory. Maybe when I retire eh....!

    For now, I reckon I will stick with trying to figure Omnisphere 2 out, properly!!

    haaaa yes I can be at times…

    often it's less about theory and more about listening in great detail..

    This thread needs a reboot.

    I found the trailer for Diablo 3, chopped it up a bit and put a trailer of mine called Lazarus over it..
    this was so much fun

    Just finished this track, thanks all for listening. Its actually got a fair bit of guitar in it, ebow and stuff, but loads of synths, All feedback appreciated, as is your time to listen

    cheers, J



    I like that .... :-)

    Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!

  • Just come across this thread. Here's one of mine from when I still had a keyboard. There's guitar on it, but it's mostly driven by the bass and a cheesy Argos keyboard.

    I’ve just fallen into the rabbit hole of exploring non guitar stuff in logic using a cheap keyboard controller with drum pads. Keeping a keen eye on this thread :)

    @BRISTOL86

    oh mate, you've done it now. An endless path of nonsense and mystery awaits. I have been farting around with this sort of stuff for 20 years, more, and I genuinely have little idea of how it all works. A guitar, amp and a few stomp boxes are so much easier to deal with!

    @biglicks67 too right. Brown ones.

    @Snap ain’t that the truth! I’ve put a logic training manual on my list to Santa :)

    and then there's the "I need to find a key's sound for... xyz"
    not only do I have Logic and all the keys in there, I have Native Instruments stuff, Omnisphere, Sylenth and many others..
    DAAAAAAAAYYYYYYZZ later.. "haaa found it.."

    in some ways.. orchestral stuff is easier.. I know what a cello section is, what it sounds like and what I need to load up... lol...
    hmmm... but then.. there's making the orchestra sound realistic.. and so getting to understand the articulations..
    a rabbit hole of a different kind...

    this stuff is so much fun.. but can be so frustrating...
    really makes me tip my hat to Jean Michel Jarre in the Oxygene / Equinox days and Vangelis in the Albedo 0.39 / Spiral days..
    just loads of real synths, effects, tape machine and no MIDI or DAW
    makes you realise the level of work, knowhow and vision required to create those masterpieces..

    @Clarky - agree, and also Phaedra by Tangerine Dream. Simply amazing.

    here's another piece..
    this one is experimental..
    the objective was to see if I could make my vocal sound like a female soprano
    so this was all about experimentation with audio processing

    Tangerine Dream remind me of 70's / 80's Hawkwind without guitars and drums...
    trippy as fk... lol... very cool though..
