A favorite symbiotic pair of mine, DSI OB6 and Pro 2 synthesizers- accompanied with Alesis drum machine- make up this one. Arturia Keystep drives the calliope and glockenspiel.

Most of the sound in this is OB6....The plucky strings, crickets, grasshopper, fly, cicadas, wind and hawk.  For the forest birds I used the Doepfer Dark energy with manual pitch sweeps.  Rounding it out is a string pad in via the Hydrasynth.

To give a realistic presence to all the forest critters I used an impulse reflection that I recorded in the Monongahela NF in WVa., and applied that as the reverb.

That is very nice. Enjoyable listen. Our cat was sitting beside me while I played it. She was extremely alert and twitchy and looking around trying to figure out where the animals were.

I used my OB6 extensively on this track, Bass, leads and strings! Very 80’s Moroder!
Bit of fun
Other gear: DX7, VP330 vocoder, linn drum samples

Spacesynth,  I love it.   Classic spacy style like this is my favorite.

Thanks a lot. It really was one of these "one-time inspirational days". Ask me to recreate it again and I won't be able to do it. But that is the magic of the instrument. I don't care it is not as versatile as other polysynths. The truth of the matter is - OB-6 covers territory that many other synths can't even dream of. Here is another improvisation, strigs this time.
