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…
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.
Third submission by Michael Hetrick is once again about our distortion beast Ohmicide:Melohman, this time showing a creative way to use the plug-in: using each band’s noise gate parameters to apply different kinds of distortion to each portion of the frequency spectrum, what gives – in Michael’s studio an acoustic drum loop – new personalities to the audio and spicy rhythmic enhancements to what used to be a ‘not that uncommon loop’. In addition he plugs in an OhmBoyz delay and – wow – we could make an entire track only playing along with parameters and cleverly exploring the variations of this delayed-gated-distortion setup.
Alberto Toribio was among last year’s video tutorial cohmpetition winners, and has recently released some new tracks, all of them made with Ohm Force plugins. His sound is quite interesting, take a listen and leave a comment…
For some technical reasons we had to change download link for the Windows vst version of the free Cohmpost plugin, from today it will be this new one. We already updated the download link in the recent Cohmpost blog post..
Second submission comes from Melbourne, Australia: Nicholas Levey shows how he uses both Ohmicide:Melohman and Predatohm distortion units – with some additional spices provided by OhMyGod! – to create “violently distorted textures suitable for ambient music and soundscapes”. Watch the video then pay a visit to his myspace profile.
Cohmpetition’s first submission kicks some ass: former Smashing Pumpkins drummer Matt Walker shows how he uses the Ohmicide:Melohman at home and during his drum sessions. Matt is currently on tour with Morrissey, and if you still don’t know what Matt we’re talking about, he was the guy on the drums from 96 ’til the end of the band…
A Cohmpost video overview made by the crew of french computer music forum Didguitare. It’s interesting to see the morbid pleasure that people seems to have while tweaking the cat squeezing ‘gauloises’ knob, french speakers/writers, if you want to leave a comment the forum thread is here.
Peter Morgan from the United Kingdom has made some ‘fresh breath’ experiments with Ohm Force Cohmpost (right after lunching, very probably), click to listen…
