Hey all!
New challenge : nothing plugged, no samples, no fx except Comb Filters and Compressor !
Master track allowed.
Recorders and live resampling allowed, no audio editing, except fade in / out, normalize after track recording.
My last track as example :
The principle is to record inputs ABCD with max GAIN, add compressor, comb filters…

Wait a minute my friend. How do we use the OT without samples?

Read my previous posts!
If you record inputs with nothing plugged and max gain, you get noise : here we go !
Mixer > Max Gain for AB, CD
Recorder 1 > inputs AB, CD
T1 > Flex, max Level, max VOL > comp / comb

Cool track! I need to focus on the OT comb filter- it’s, apparently, an elusive beast
Edit: I’m in awe of how in awe I am of that track- so beautiful(it’s a shame it’s not eligible)

Yeah you can make a lot of different sounds, like drums, flute, saxophone…
Once you get your noise source, apply short Amp Release with minimum Hold, and here is the magic!

That is so cool! I was imagining Mick from Crocodile Dundee in the bush there tripping out.

This is straight out of the OT? You didn’t put anything on the master buss?
Sounds good man!

Yeah, nothing plugged, no samples, recorded in OT.
Some say OT can’t do synthesis…

Does ‘no samples’ include no resampling? E.g can I record using the no input method then use that as a sample, still using no fx apart from comb filters? Or are we talking 100% live?
Resampling, but 100 % live!
No audio editing. Normalize would change the game.
I changed rules to make it more dynamic and tasty with Compressor !

First try, to give an idea of some possibilities.
I came up again with something weird and surprising.
No filter fx of course but I found a way to filter sounds ! Have a guess…
Your turn to experiment ! I’ll make another one from scratch later.

I respected the rules of course !
2 tracks are recording / playing input ABCD (stereo evolving noise), filtered by a misterious parameter.
I used Cue Rec / Play with feedback and 1/32th delay (swing =75 for all trigs, thanks again @gbravetti ) to emulated short delay / cheap reverb. There’s also a pitched delay with same principle.

making a track without reverb feels like eating pizza without
