OMI Universe Of Sounds had done classic Emulator II sounds, and for other samplers. The quality of the samples was outstanding, and the patches were tastefully programmed as well. Going by ear I believe several samples made it on the ROM of Roland synths/expansions too. Note these demos are completely dry / as they are from the stereo outputs of a Roland S-760 sampler - no effects added, the perceived reverb heard in some of the samples was recorded by OMI within the samples themselves. There are too many volumes of Performances / Patches / Partials to show them all in one video, so this is a selection of some of the ones I like the most. 00:00 OPENING TITLES / Pluck Mix 00:48 BellStrings 01:17 Breath Choir 01:44 Stackedvoice 02:05 Slow Lush 02:54 Chime Mix 03:23 SlOrchChoir 04:07 Not Fast 05:02 SoftSynthOrc 05:49 BellChoir 06:21 Swell String 07:20 Chinese Orch 07:58 SlowSkyChoir 09:02 Slow Space 10:03 Twelve Moogs 10:37 FuzztonesStk 11:18 SlowOrchid 12:14 Mild Rough 12:45 Big Brass 13:14 Brass Choir 13:48 Rich&Mellow 15:22 JapFluteOrch 16:00 SoftPianoStr 16:52 Long Rain 17:59 Mystery Pad 18:47 Future Choir 19:41 BambooSpread 20:18 SlowPad 21:09 Brass Tutti 21:38 DistortGuitr 22:12 Glockenflute 22:45 Legato 23:09 Slobie 24:10 FenderViolin 25:07 Microwave 25:51 48StrngGuitr 26:25 SlOctPnoStr 26:57 BrightGtrStr 27:25 Ambience 28:29 HarpSynth 29:01 Spacelanding 29:32 Bosendorfer 30:12 FX Menu 30:33 FX Menu 2 30:55 Variations 3 31:17 FX Menu 4 31:44 Variations 5 32:06 Variations 6 32:27 Instrums 7 33:10 Gated FX 8 33:33 Pno Shlatter 34:08 Instrums 10 34:35 Variation 11 35:08 Instrums 12 35:34 StrangeChord 35:58 Variation 14 36:23 FX Menu 15 36:43 Extraterrest 37:06 Chinatown 37:26 Split Person 37:48 Instrums 19 38:07 FX Menu 20 38:45 Variation 21 39:02 ENDING TITLESDrifting Through The Past (Indie Rock, 100bpm)SynthMania2024-06-16 | Gear - Cubase, NI Instruments, TAL plugins - Yamaha REVstar guitar - Hooky Pro bass - mic Oktava MK-219Voltage Vortex (Electronica, 70bpm)SynthMania2024-06-08 | Voltage Vortex, In The Sea Of Tomorrow.Lake Of Fire (New Age, 61pbm)SynthMania2024-06-01 | Instruments used: - Padshop 2 - Retrologue 2In Land (Epic Soundtrack, 103bpm)SynthMania2024-05-28 | Instruments used: - Native Instruments Kontakt 7 - Steinberg Retrologue 2 - Steinberg Padshop 2 - Steinberg HALionSonic 7Milli Fusilli (Synth Hypnotica, 92bpm)SynthMania2024-05-27 | Instruments used: Synths: - TAL-NoiseMaker (basses) - discoDSP OB-Xd (bass, lead) - Steinberg HALion Sonic (synths) Vox sample: - MusicRadar Vocal Ad Lib samples Drums: - drum/perc/fx samples (Cubase stock) FX: - Eventide SP2016 Reverb plugin - Steinberg MonoDelay plugin (Cubase stock) DAW: - Steinberg Cubase Pro 13Sweeto Bonito (Downtempo, 83bpm)SynthMania2024-05-26 | Chilled tune with interspersing instruments going in and out.Atmospheric Refraction (Early 1990s Techno, 133bpm)SynthMania2024-05-19 | Type of Techno ditty I used to make in my youth with Roland W-30 and analog synths / sample CDs of the era.
