As usual, no big surprise here! You've done it again! Amazing mix and fantastic presentation of the impOSCar. Very cool drums as well. Thanks for sharing. I just wonder where do you get the inspiration to write such cool original music in the style of your choice. Hmmm..... super nice!
@psbmastering Thx :) well i think the inspiration is based on fun factor, the more fun you have doing something the more you feel like keep doing it. In this case i imagined doing a trailer theme for a 70s crime series beefed up with some fusion drumming. Drums are Groove Agent 3 and me with one of my custom kits.
Love the demo !! The link to the presets seems to be dead though : -( Please help, as I'm a useless patch programmer at the moment (still learning) ! Thanks, RP.
@retrophilm I cant do proper links in comment fields :( Youtube dont allow it. Also that link is only for 1 preset so you are not missing much ;) I could not export a single preset so i had to export the factory bank with that single preset included.
@michaelkastrup FL Studio sucks =D haha... nothing can beat Cubase 5.1.. it just ROCKS! well done sounding m8 very nice piece of work with this legend synth imposcar! i heard kraftwerk uses it too. kraftwerk also uses Oddity =)
@chasna in it's main menu. (it's a down arrow or something.) go to the imposcar instance, the graphical vst, then hit its main menu and disable multithreading. it's next to disabling / enabling 'smart disable' for the instance.

michaelkastrup, what is your musical background, have you had formal training or worked in a jazz/funk band? Just that I really like the material you have on Youtube and to my ear you really know your music and are a great inspiration, I don't have your keyboard ability but the type of music you create is exactly the same vein that I would love to pursue. Cheers
Hi maccagrabme :), in the 70's i learned my self to play most instruments by listening and playing to records. In the 80's i got into synthesis and build a studio doing arrangements and sound design for artist. I have always been on some sort of "want to learn more" curve. I find it important to know most instruments role in an arrangement and consider it like making paintings and having fun putting the different colors on the canvas. So as long as you have fun you will learn along the way.
@michaelkastrup Good question Olorintube, I was wordering the same. Just to clarify, do you have all of them in separated midi channels or resampling each track? I'm about to change my computer cause I have an old Intel with one core and to date It's impossible for me to instance more than one impOSCar...:-( Thanks!
@darksideofdarkness Odd that you are only able to run one instance. I'm running 13 in this little track at the same time. Each new instance is set to midi ch 1, dosent matter what midi i give it since each instance is seperate from the others and just respond to whatever the track is playing. So there is no multitimbral going on here... just 13 seperate versions of ImpOSCar.
@michaelkastrup Actually, I should have written "tracks" instead of "channels" en my original post, but you have already answered my question, they were real "instances", not audio. Thanks for the clarification. Congratulation for the song, is really cool, and it reminds me how good this VST is....
