is it just me or does noone understand what fluorosis is arguing about? we're just chatting about whatever, topic has been hashed out already nothing left to say, in case you have?

Damn this is like a crashcourse to spires filters =) i learned TONS from you guys. incredible discussion above. anyway, on topic, i gave up my dancing galaxy lead i was not good enough to get the melody accurate. and showing off a sound without the melody kinda defeats the purpose. i have since switched to Noone Ever Dreams hopefully that will be easier since at least its fully pitch coherent to my ears. if i cant do that either ill just have to go back to Nexus again, which is pretty much pitch-sterile and even me could nail the melodies. i think.

that was like 2 posts man relax. its a fairly dead forum and any discussion is good discussion!

@recursion loop good stuff

Stop that, that's just silly. you're most certainly a Real producer and a fine one at that.

yes it does! And spire costs about a tenth or so vs a ti2. Still love spire, still would love to see it come to hw, sounding "more" than what it now does. I think it would be a really fun box to be hands on with.

Interesting. Seems even a 10 year old HW unit can beat even the best SW units thats really what its all about though. god damn bullshit is what it is, that we cant have that SOUND in SW. that "thing". at least, out the box (of the plugin)

so in your opinion that old virus of yours is still better at sound design than spire? if so then i believe you, i dont have the pleasure of working with a virus before. Never even tried one in a shop. But ive heard one, and yes spire sounds much much more software like than a real virus theres no question.. but i think that can be mixed in later in the chain, but yes this is the problem with nearly any SW vs HW scenario.

next one!

i dont know what i could introduce to the track, but regardless i would love to see it happening again. would be really amazing theres tons of skillful musicians on here so it would be an amazing thing.

sounds a little like the pad in MWNN - Lunar Cycle

id love to see the virus line continued, and they make a current version. then it would rival spire in a second ive no doubt.

haha thats great. spire is something id want to buy in hardware form and then have that as my only hardware synth.

i still think Peak is his best track cause thats really kinda what he wanted to do with most of his tracks; and he defined it and boiled it down to the essence of his post-goa days with Peak. Ultra cheese and Ultra climax and Ultra Leads. i think that was his dream all along. and thats only half humor i actually really love this track btw we need radis input if we are gonna talk about boris blenn feels like we are talking behind his back and i dont like it

Zodiac is a good album. I was lucky to see talamasca live at Arvika when he hadn't released it yet so much in his set was new stuff at the time. It stuck with me

thats a good take on it, and i suppose youre right maybe i was a bit harsh on them it was a funny video i give them that; id just hate for it to be some sort of self promo . not sure why but it doesnt sit right. but your take sounds more plausible !

@AstralSphinx thanks that is super useful and helpful!! very much appreciated. i think i understand about 75% of it or so

i meant the youtube video itself. the meme so to speak. Loud did that? edit: lol youre right, haha okay thats strange. That now seems a bit cocky instead of funny. I thought it was just a random memer complaining about the state of psytrance who did that video. Not an artist wanting to say "hey, we can do it better" : ( that was an anticlimax .

edit: screw off Loud.

I stand corrected and my apologies nice! a little Khetzal-esque in the feeling of it edit: btw is "egyptian" mode pretty much Phrygian mode? Or is that a scale and not a mode? I am not musically trained Im learning as I go along.

mods... can you please do something? i tried scrolling to MultiMedias response on my phone and it exploded and Im now deformed because of it. Stop slacking, I see youre active.

Wtf is happening in this thread

i miss rotwang is he still wandering the earth like caine or what

I really love your analysis. Pleiadian maximalism. Thats a sentence I never thought Id see and I pretty much know exactly what youre talking about too Hrm sky* cough* input

He was never here. Yeah he used the basstation iirc for the acid synth and to get the desired distortion he pushed the channel on the first mixer to max then ran it into another mixer and pushed that channel too. Analog distortion at its finest. But ofc it's all recreatable in software you just have to think a little outside the box no pun intended, to get the right sounding noise, distortion, and even passive filtering and compression that's the nature of resistors and transistors in any analog unit.. So some people who say software sounds thin and lifeless aren't incorrect but it's certainly possible to emulate each step in the analog process inside software, it just gets really really technical and quite difficult to nail something so abstract and almost esoteric nature of how the audio is processed in an analog chain..... Anyway I'm rambling.. Yes he used both the albino and the vanguard aswell as zebra synths - at least for his tutorials on YouTube. But back in 98 he used basstation, and one i can't remember right now but I'll edit this post tonight to add it in, it's one that doesn't get too much mention and it's not a Roland. Edit : it was the waldorf pulse
