Bom Shanka Machines just released a new preset and sample packs portal on their website and it includes two of my preset packs: Fragmentation for Vital and Fragmentation for Serum.
To celebrate this new collaboration, Iβm offering an exclusive 20% discount on both packs. Just use the code BOMSHANKA at checkout or click the links below π
I was having loads of fun synthesizing drums & percussions on my Virus this weekend and I thought to myself, this could be a great idea for a future Virus sound design workout tutorial.
Would you be interested in this topic (could be made using other synths than the Virus)? π§
I'm preparing the new content for the month and I'm in need of your help.
Currently I'm hesitating between two ideas for next week's video, both are for the Virus, one is Sequencing related and the other is sound design related. But I'm not sure, which one would you prefer? π€
Answer me in this little survey and if you're interested in a non Virus related topic, please leave a comment below and I'll consider the one with the most likes (the topic could be anything, don't hesitate) π
Including all the tracks of my freshly released EP on Digital Shamans Records - Celestial Redemption alongside many unreleased ones (full tracklist on soundcloud).
Enjoy and feel free to suggest what are the particular sound designs/techniques from the set that you would like me to expose in future videos π
Starting today and until the end of July, use the code "olliebd4" at checkout to get 20% off on every product in my shop*.
Now is the perfect time to grab everything you need to finish your next track, whether it's knowledge, inspiration, kicks and bass, drums, or any synth sound your production might need. Presets are available for all major synthesizers, including Serum, Vital, Pigments, Sylenth1, Kick2, and the Virus Ti.

As you can guess from the title, I've asked this question myself. Like you, I don't always have time for music production. π
You might face similar issues with gigs, jobs, and holidays slowing down your music creation. With the promotion of my new EP, this problem surfaced more often, I had to make the most of every second in the studio. I found out that limiting myself to one tool can challenge my creativity and lead to new techniques I missed with the numerous synthesizers at my disposal.
If I had to choose one synthesizer for a whole track, it would be Pigments. I bet you're wondering why not Serum or Vital or His Majesty Virus The Great... And here are the reasons why :
π It combines wavetable, analog, granular and additive synthesis in one place.
π It has 2 filters that can morph between serial and parallel configurations.
π It has traditional and creative effects, ie: I can use it as a multi-effect... more on that here.
π With its sequencer I can create complex Q&A phrases as it allows per-step randomisation, scale lock and polyrhythms.
π Since this is the third week of my birthday party, all of my Pigments preset packs are on sale alongside the Freakyrecipes for the MicroFreak pack.
Of course things doesn't stop here, I've just released my Pigments bundle including all of my preset packs for Pigments (Vol1,2 & 3) alongside my special bass pack for Pigments, over 160presets, 36 midi patterns and more at a reduced price
In the past few years, many great soft synthesizers have been released, like Vital and Pigments, to name a few. Each brings something new to the table and pushes the boundaries of sound design. This has raised the question in the community: is Serum about to die? π€
In my opinion, Serum is a timeless synthesizer, like the NordLead2 or the Virus.
π For sound design, Serum's filters are still my go-to tools because they are flexible and offer deep control over their character. For example, I can combine a bandpass and a notch filter, then feed everything into a comb filter (a sound designer's dream π).
π Since I can move Serum's FX modules the way I like, I can add any effect, like distortion, between the two filters for extra flavor.
π And when I want to modulate those effects, Serum's LFOs are still the most precise, allowing me to draw exactly the modulation shape I like, with options to loop a given portion of that shape to create a sequence or an LFO within an LFO.
π However, the most important feature that I can't live without is Serum's wavetable manipulation capabilities. With Serum, I can create wavetables from any sample or even manipulate existing ones to create new wavetables. In my opinion, this is the main tool for expressivity because it allows the producer to create their own sound identity right from the oscillator.
π Since it's the second week of my birthday sale, I want to celebrate these timeless synthesizers by offering you 20% off on all of my Serum and Virus preset packs*.
Over 250 presets covering everything you need to produce a modern psytrance track from scratch are now available at a reduced price. Including: kicks, basslines, Q&A sequences, leads, unique wavetables, and more. Grab them by following the links below or by using the code "olliebd2" at checkout.*

MY BIRTHDAY IS CLOSE and we will be celebrating it for four weeks.π
Random facts about it :
π You will get exclusive discounts on my magic products all along π It's four times longer than a psytrance party in Berlin π No one argues about bpm or styles of the party, each of you is free to set up your favorites π Hangover free guaranteed π Your new music will get closer to that nirvana state it's been looking for
To a studio rat like me it sounds even better than a random psytrance party in Berlin πΆπ
π€ Now, let's get to the deal. Every week a unique code offering 20% discount will be available on some of my products, ex: Week 1 (as of right now!!), all of my Vital Preset Packs will be on sale along side my Sylenth1 Psychedelic Impressions Pack.
Aaand because no party is completed without a special guest, here it is! My brand new Vital presets bundle with over 150 presets including kicks, basses, leads, auto Q&A sequence generators, atmospheres, unique wavetables and more... everything you need to produce a psytrance track from A to Z in one single place!
