Ross Smithe Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 (edited) Here's a new tune I finished up recently. Finally broke down and invested in Omnisphere a couple months ago, so this was kind of a maiden voyage through those deep waters! I started and ended with a clock ticking sound to set the rhythm and also the theme of the song, and at the same time JohnnyV was doing his own "clock ticking" song. Haha, great minds think alike!

daryl1968 Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Omnisphere fan here too. Treated myself a few years back. This is really nice Ross. It develops at just the right pace. Great choice of synth sounds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lynn Wilson Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Well written, well played, and well mixed! This makes a great template for the rest of us. Keep it going, Ross! A+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry T. Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Overall really, really nice. The intro is pretty much state of the art sound wise. I think the entrance of the drums at 1:33 could use a wider/stereo drum mix to really open it up and get the listeners attention. The vox is good, the lyrics from Ecclesiastes 3 are universal truths🎶🎶🎶🎶 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjornpdx Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Ross, I love the layered development of the music over time. The vocal tracks really add to the wonderful sound as well. Good stuff! Big Omnisphere fan here as well. -Bjorn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Wilby Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Welcome to the Machine 😃 Genre isn't my cup of tea but I'm well aware of how much effort went into this and why people would enjoy it. Well done 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I actually have thought about that very thing, I actually remixed it recently and tried to pump that section up a little bit. It's a bit of a dilemma, because when I turn it up too much, it the thumping seems to distort. I added some compression, and it seemed to help, maybe I'll revisit it again and try spreading it out a bit like you said... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're the first one to catch the synth programming nod to Welcome to the Machine, or at least to mention it 😁 Edited September 27, 2023 by Ross Smithe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
