pasta oracle

By ddmm64 on February 25, 2024 10:37 pm

Started this by noodling around with the preenFM3 (the cheesy organ chords) and the D05 (lead at the end). Sampled them, added some DR202 drum samples, pseudo-Solid bass and pseudo-analog lead with M8 FM synth, and chiptuneish arps with M8 wavsynth. Arranged everything on the M8. Finished with half an hour to spare!

y'know I grew up with opl3, adlib sound and sega genesis and this would been perfect for some kind of city building or factory game. I love the sounds, and it has this chill, focused vibe.

haha, thank you, I loove opl3/adlib/sega sounds as well! I was actually just playing with some my opl3 samples for (possibly) next WB...

Cool FM sounds! mwmwmw said it all!

This makes me want to get my hands on every Apogee game. I dig it!

Fellow D-05 user, huh? Nice, they're somewhat rare now. That lead fits quite nicely! Sounds like Soundtrack but with fast attack. I'm honestly not sure if I'd call the organ chords more cheesy than the Dr. Groove drum sounds big_smile

Nice retro chillout track.

Tasty pasta! The oracle can groove.

Thank you! Gotta admit I love the FM sound, happy M8 also puts it literally in my fingertips

Thank you, what do you mean, nothing cheesy about these crisp and (maybe slightly crunchy) acoustic drums wink And yes, I totally love the sounds of the D05, even if I've pretty much just used it as a preset machine. Got mine off craigslist during COVID from some old hippie guy who said he used to play in a band with an OG D50, but decided he needed to move on and was getting into modular big_smile

this is just a straight up bop is what it is!
