Almost as though it was found in the back of a damp garage after decades of neglect, Hollow Sun has created Oscillosine. Reminiscent of an oddball inventor\u2019s strange homebrew creation, Oscillosine is designed to conjour the sights, sounds and smells of a 1940s experimenter\u2019s laboratory\u2026 glowing valves, otherworldly audio and maybe a hint of pipe tobacco.<\/p>\n

The samples for Oscillosine are taken from a vintage tube Hewlett Packard sine wave test oscillator estimated to date back to the 50s or 60s, maybe earlier.<\/p>\n

Oscillosine uses Kontakt\u2019s advanced modular synthesis facilities to create a compact sonic laboratory machine capable of producing authentic sci-fi and vintage electronica blips and bleeps and klings and klangs and drones and squeals as well as smooth pads, solid sub-basses, mellow leadlines, etc., suitable for more modern musical genres.<\/p>\n

The user interface is modelled on an old Tektronics oscilloscope and might look a bit inscrutable and arcane at first but is actually quite simple. On the other hand, its rather non-standard layout encourages experimentation and serendipity to create sounds that are maybe unimaginable. It\u2019s certainly great fun to play with.<\/p>\n

With careful settings, it\u2019s possible to create pseudo-arpeggios and sequences but otherwise, it\u2019s possible to create sounds that could have come from a VCS3 or Buchla or from the soundtrack of the 50\u2019s movie, \u2018Forbidden Planet\u2019 \u2026 warm, organic and temperental and unpredictable sounds.<\/p>\n

There are also ring mod and FM functions to create discordant sounds which can be modulated and mangled by the multi-wave LFO and so on. The possibilities are almost endless.<\/p>\n

But if you\u2019re bit timid or unsure, don\u2019t worry \u2013 there\u2019s a drop-down to select from a wide variety of preset sounds to get you started. You can also save your own \u2018User\u2019 presets for the drop down.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the EFFECTS page gives access to 3-band EQ, a chorus unit, phase shifter, rotary cabinet and echo unit to transform the sounds further. These feed into a convolving reverb unit which, amongst many others, offers vintage spring reverb impulses for a truly authentic retro sound.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
