A dream itself is but a shadow

Entry to the Dreamworld Plus One Challenge (September 2024).

A tapestry woven from pads and sounds created with free VCV and NYSTHI modules, plus a compressor from Squinky Labs as the wildcard.

Lots of fairy dust to drift and soothe, with an occasional troll appearing.

Two additive synths (NYSTHI Phasor) provide a pad with spectra of left and right stereo channels morphing independently. NYSTHI Squonk as a pitch and parameter sequencer with self-randomization after the last step. Another flowing pad in the background. Noise swells with stereo echo.

Press the PUSH button in the upper right corner of the patch to start and stop audio.

The Cage

Entry to the Jack of all Trades Patch Challenge. Contains only one module (NYSTHI Phasor). Highly experimental and spontaneous patching. Just for fun.

Glitch Lab

Another entry to the Jack of all Trades Patch Challenge. Uses Valley’s Interzone for glitchy noises, especially amusing when increasing the LFO rate. Later on, Delay and Reverb is added for emphasis (exceeding challenge requirements). Experimental.

Growing Fire

Sounds were created using a single generative patch in VCV Rack plus VCV Host carrying various software synths. Due to CPU limitations, tracks were recorded to wave (.wav) files individually and later mixed in FL Studio. Video production in FL Studio using ZGameEditor Visualizer.
