Haven't used the M8 in a while so decided to show it some love this week.

Great track! Those pads sound so good.

I love the super saw stabs, and the chill melodic vibe. The highlight is the incredible synth lead at 1:50. It come in great with that arp up the keyboard. Very haunting. Do you mind if I ask what synth you used?

Oh I just read the thing about the M8. D'oh! Very cool.

Thank you! Yes it’s the M8 Macrosynth which is based on Mutable Instruments Braids. I used the Buzz engine, which according to the docs are “2 detuned harmonic combs”. Then I modulate the detune parameter slightly and the filter (bandpass) cutoff with two different AHD envelopes. Then it’s reverb, delay, chorus, plus it’s slightly overdriven smile

Very nice! Love the textures and risers coming in. Really nice feeling of space between everything, allowing all of the elements to shine individually. And someone else already said it, but that lead at 1:50 is great - I particularly like the way it comes in! Nice final bars.

This feels very comfy with these chords
