DESCRIPTION

Hello,
This is made for fun but I thought it sounded good enough to be uploaded
4 monark Oscs and a secret ingredient to make unstable sounds (the typical Boards of Canada stuff)

If you want to, you can listen to my music here
(Not BOC style, you are warned ;))

V1.3 : Added Tape Delay (I can't find the guy who made it, If someone can help, let me know!)
Few new snapshots

V1.2 : Now using updated Crackle and Dust Blocks + added Cusp Block to the modulation madness
Some more snapshots

V1.1 : New version with Michael Hetrick's excellents Crackle and Dust Blocks (which are pushing the instability to new boundaries ;)
Few more snapshots

Sounds great and I love this synth! I think there are some gainstaging issues somewhere in here, as the clipping and distortion get more powerful than I'd expect/want at times, but overall a wonderful instrument.

Doesn't remind me of Blue Oyster Cult but interesting none the less.

Absolutely wonderful. An old school subtractive synth you can build on. Stuff like this makes me happy I bought Reaktor in the first place

Awesome! As a heads up, I released an update to Crackle in the newest Euro Reakt bundle. It features the old CHAOS mode and a new, more stable CRISP mode. CRISP will probably work even better for this situation.

Ah - forget to add something: there could be the need for something warbly in there like hmmm a nice crinkled up tape echo, maybe? ;-)

Hey man, having great fun with this - may I suggest that you consider using Michael Hetrick's excellent Crackle and Dust drivers for the "secret sauce" (link below)? IMHO the white noise can get in the way a bit too much.https://www.native-instruments.com/en/reaktor-community/reaktor-user-library/entry/show/8919/
