Title: My first Prophet X sounds :)

Something I noticed is when you use one of the Oscillators as a modulation source for an Instrument you can get some really nice articulations. In the example above the patch THE OWL has a growling sax...I did that by FMing the Sax sample just slightly and it gets a nice growl. Same with my Godzilla Awakens and Huge Brass patches....I found FMing some of the brass ensemble samples emulates that "monster brass" you hear and using the slider as a way to control the filter cutoff you can get that "Hans Zimmer" type brass swell somewhat.

Wow.

Glad you enjoyed it. I might do a full composition in the next few days.

Great sounds there -- no doubt. The Ifukube tributes were great!

Thanks, Ifukube is such a strange conundrum. Almost everyone knows him or knows of him but he never gets covered or any tributes to him. He certainly is one of the originators of experimental music. He even incorporated synths and electronics into his work in the 70s (Terror Of Mechagodzilla)

No, I mostly just use the synth engine in the PX for FM stuff and some sine waves to add a bit of bottom end. I'm mostly focusing on the sample side to be honest. I would say though that there is a bit more bottom end on the PX than the P6.
