Try winning an ALL-ALL Bundle at the Summer Electronic Music Games

What will be a great thing to do during this summer? Making music, of course! What about participating at this year’s edition of the Summer Electronic Music Games, the yearly contest organised by SectionZ? SEMG’s first edition happened during the summer of 2004 and experimented a wide success, with up to 11 different events, more than 200 entries and live web broadcast shows for the results announcements and playback. Since then it became a tradition, getting bigger year after year, specially the prize vault: for 2009’s edition more than U$ 60,000 in pro-audio related goodies have been donated by top industry names, and of course you’ll read the Ohm Force name on that list. Second and third places of each event will put their hands in a OhmBoyz delay and the “4 on 4 relay fresstyle” (a ‘four style in a row’ competition ) big winner will get nothing less than an ALL-ALL Bundle with all our plug-ins. If you enjoy musical challenges you should participate in the contests, listen, review submitted tracks and promote your own within and beyond the SectionZ community. Non members can freely download or stream music just as easily as members.

Finger wizard

Moog Voyager vs. Minimonsta:Melohman

“Can the pupil overcome the master?”, one may ask. You’ll now be able to see with your own eyes and – specially – listen with your own ears: rhythminmind from the “Signal to Noize” blog posted an in-depth comparison between the real Moog Voyager hardware synth and our Minimonsta:Melohman virtual instrument. Listen to the 24bit samples of each waveform then take a look at the graphs….

A GreenWizzard’s Minimonsta Video Presentation

Seventh and last cohmpetition submission comes from Portugal, from the cave of the GreenWizard, who shares with the whole ohmworld how he prepares his Minimonsta:Melohman wizardry. In this ‘more like a tutorial’ video you’ll be able to see how he tweaks each parameter section of the synth, and specially finally understand  – seeing how it actually works – that the Melohman preset morphing feature is indeed MUCH easier to use than one could imagine, and obviously one of the most powerful synth tool you’ll have in your sonic arsenal.

Venomeza’s Tips n’ Tricks for the Funky Ohmforce n00bie

Did you know that come from Guatemala the biggest ring modulation fans in the world? Miguel Zea aka Venomeza is  indeed one of them. “Reeeaally basic stuff made with some Ohmforce plugins for the Cohmpetition contest. This tutorial proves that Ohmforce plugins can go as deep as you’re ready to. Plugins used: Quad Frohmage, Predatohm, OhmBoyz & Cohmpost all in FLS” says the video description, and what we were able to see is that with some Ohm Force plugins and some evil feelings inside your head it’s possible to transform cheesy sounds into nice (and useful!) pieces of sound. Ok, not that useful if we talk about the Cohmpost part at the end of the video, but it’s never too much listening to all that horny cats…

Flynn Price’s Ohm studio

Fourth submission for the Ohm studio video cohmpetition comes from Seattle, WA, USA. It’s got live studio footage. It’s got screen-cap tutorial. It’s got intrigue! Flynn Price shows that you haven’t seen it all in your life: yes, it’s possible to have a studio set up 1 meter from a wash machine and two meters from a kitchen. And 50cm from his daughter’s cradle, where she’s probably amazed by the odd sounds achieved on that Symptohm:Melohman. You might say that it’s all about loving music, and Flynn will surely agree.

Cohmposting a Contra Clarinet with an Access Virus

Emmalee Crane wanted to show that Cohmpost can actually be used/useful : a piece for Contra Clarinet And Virus In D Major.

A lucky grime head…

Dj First Aid from Exeter (Devon, UK) aka Aidan Wallwork have been present at Analog to Digital Expo’s first edition a few weeks ago and it seems we’re talking about a lucky guy: he’s the big winner of the ALL-ALL Bundle withdrawed at the workshop where Ohm Force plugins have been demoed. Fist Aid is a freelance producer/engineer and have been working a lot with Sounds Gallery, but also compose his own music, well crafted pieces of evil-zen dubsted and grime, which will be certainly yet more evil now that he’ll have Ohmicide:Melohman and Predatohm in his arsenal…
