Symphony For a Synth

Symphony For a Synth is the largest adventure into the unknown that I have ever attempted, i.e. a combination of an orchestra and synths. This song started in Uphrase, a chord progression and rhythm program similar to Scaler but nowhere near as powerful as Scaler. But I find it much easier to use and adequate for my needs.

BiaB Style - Orchestral 4/4 w/harp
Tempo - 60 BPM
Bass - Swam - Bass Section
Piano - String Studio VS-3 - Factory - Dreamy State
Guitar - Swam - Viola Section
Guitar2 - Kontakt - Amadeus - Viola Section
Strings - Kontakt - Amadeus - Full String Section
Utility - Ultra Analog VA-3 - Play a Lot Note
Utility2 - SynthMaster 3 - Arp Space Station 1

ME - Uphrase track - Lounge Lizard - Tine - Nocturnal Thoughts
Via my Breath and Keyboard controllers:
Bassoon - Swam Bassoon
Trumpet 1 - Swam trumpet

I copied the Bassoon track, raised it an octave, and used a Swam Oboe as the instrument. I also copied the trumpet 1 into trumpet 2, French Horns 1&2, and tuba tracks. I put those tracks into the instrument's ranges and via sound-on-sound added various nuances. I also added nuances using the same process on all of the string tracks.

Me via my keyboard controller:
Synth lead - Ultra Analog VA-3 - Acid Lead
Low synth - Axxes - Throat Punch City
And two Synth FX tracks

As always all comments are welcomed.


The bumper sticker said "I'm a veterinarian, therefore I can drive like an animal".
Suddenly I realized how many proctologists are on the road.
