Loads of distortion on vocals? Colombian gothic artist Elamorte explains how he uses the Ohmicide:Melohman distortion plug-in from Ohm Force to process his vocal tracks. He could have made this tutorial without showing his face, but it wouldn’t be scary enough. His track is called “Suicide” and you shouldn’t listen to it alone at home…
“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….
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.
This time our german ohmfriend Colin Stark (you’ll probably remember him from our first video cohmpetition, one year ago) waited almost until the last minute to send us his most recent production. Now he shows how he personally uses his OhmBoyz, Ohmicide:Melohman and OhMyGod!. (Colin, you have indeed experienced some technical problem when rendering your video, as video speed is weird and there’s no sound at all. The HD version is not working neither. Please render/upload again and send us a new link as soon as possible!!!)
Everybody knows that GForce’s Minimonsta:Melohman is the best Minimoog reincarnation ever, a kind of “Minimoog on steroids” evolution from the classic instrument. But could you imagine that it would powerful enough to save the world from this decade end’s darkness?

We we’re watching the new Symptohm:Melohman tutorial made the Réamonn brothers from Switzerland, with it’s theory about cats and its weird zombie fennecs sounds when…. SUDDENLY a white cat enters through the window! It comes, has a walk and looks in an evil way, then goes out, this time using the door.
“The Fennec Affair (Symptohm Tutorial)”, by Dominic Réamon from somewhere!
There are some people who like to play with danger. Dominic is one of them, since he almost lost the train: his submission has arrived yesterday at 10pm (french time) and of course we’ve just seen his mail today, already in August. But it seems all his postponing will be forgiven, since he delivered one of the most worthwhile, crazy and disgusting “things” of this cohmpetition. Anyone asked to see a hairy naked guy on sleeping shorts? Not us!!! Oh god, we’re still trying to erase these creepy scenes from our brains. (…) Ah, we were almost forgetting to tell: this amazing piece of video also teaches how to make crazy (what else?) sounds with the Symptohm:Melohman!… And if you live in Switzerland, you can even hire this crew to spice up your party…
Seventh cohmpetition submission is “Symptohm:Melohman programming”, by James Brinkhoff.
From where in the world could come a video tutorial about the ferocious – yet always so smooth and organic – Symptohm:Melohman? From Tasmania, of course – the little island separated from Australia by the bass strait! Tasmanian James Brinkhoff takes us in a delightful journey beyond the filter nature of this synth – or the incredible synth capabilities of these filters – showing how to start from scratch then tweaking the existing presets in order to get “the” sound you wanted so much…
The fifth submission for the Video Tutorial Cohmpetition shows some very interesting aspects of the Ohmicide:Melohman, such as the feedback control and several midi tricks concerning auto-bind, DAW automation among many others. Sven Engdahl, from Sweden, shows nice examples with electric guitar sounds, showing why Ohmicide:Melohman could be the best guitar pedal your instrument have ever had. If you like it make some noise and leave a comment at youtube video’s page!
