Free Omega 8 Chords

Omega 8 Chords 2

This is probably the last post of 2009. Here are some free chords from the discrete output modified Omega 8. A quick word about what you're hearing here.

I took some of my favorite simple patches and I layered them up in multi-mode. This means that almost every chord is using all 16 VCO's if I'm doing my math right. (2 oscillators per voice, 8 voices in the machine.) Then I played 4-note chords that were layered / doubled, and recorded them chromatically ascending for about 2 octaves. Oh, and I also made sure to do all of them both major and minor.



They'll probably be too boring if you just listen to them. (I did - I sat there and actually listened as they bounced in realtime. Made me feel a bit strange.) The purpose is so that YOU can download, chop, sequence, reverse, pitch-shift, granulate, etc. etc. and use them in your own music. These chords were recorded through some outboard (EQ yes, compression no) and captured at 96k. They are prepared for you as 16-bit 44.1khz mono WAV's.

I wish you all a Happy New Year, and please share with me any tunes you make with these sounds!
