A tiny bit of BOC(ish) sound design

Post by Shut That Bird Up »

Here is a very short synth sting that I did in a BOC type style .

At the moment it is missing compression and resampling at a lower bit rate (using old hardware samplers of course), and either a cheap 80's reverb or a bit of tape delay . But I think you guys will get it .

If anybody is interested in how I did it , please let me know and I will give you a quick walkthrough .

Let me know what you think......

BTW this is not a total sound alike mp3, as I deliberately avoided using some of their signature sounds.

It sure has a nice sound to it. Now go make a song using it.

Thanks 747Music .

I don't actually have any time to make full tracks at the moment though , but I would probably be up for tinkering with the sound a bit more to make it more like Boards of Canada .
