DSI OB-6 and Strymon Big Sky Ambient Improvisation

A little improvisation with the DSI OB-6 and Strymon Big Sky. Recorded straight into Logic with no processing other than a touch of limiting for level.

[@mattmason1014]

I'm a classical pianist and composer, degrees and all that, I know the repertoire and I'm struggling to think of a more moving and beautiful three and a half minutes of music. The melody, the structure, the tension, the resolution. Amazing, like a master class in composition, no joke. Hats off, my friend.

[@davidmaemone8994]

Thank you!

[@modeswitching]

This. This is what synthesizers were made for.

[@beckclewlow]

i'm proud for at least in my lifetime, someone can play a couple of oscillators as beautifully as this. man and machine in harmony

[@davidmaemone8994]

Really appreciate your kind words!

[@Wouterferdinand]

Never thought about it like that, "man and machine in harmony". Makes a good point in this day and age..

[@LukeCorradine]

subtle CS80 tones there for sure... very beautiful

[@lindsaybird6941]

I'm a little late to the party but this honestly has to be the most beautiful example of the OB6 i've ever heard!

[@RedMeansRecording]

absolutely stunning

[@jdjk7]

thank you jeremy i agree

[@davidmaemone8994]

Thanks so much!

[@scottmcauleysounds]

I have listened to this so many times, I am an ob6 and Strymon owner, this video just blows me away! Fantastic scoring, amazing sound, and great playing 👏👏👌🙏🏻 thanks for sharing this

[@j3po784]

Beautiful sounds. That Big Sky + OB-6 is so the move. :)

[@Maxarcc]

There was a time in where I was dreaming about getting an OB-6 after I had enough money. I stumbled across this video and I every once in a while return to it. Not to check out the OB-6, but to listen to this beautiful tune.

[@jamiereibl9611]

I keep coming back to this video. Beautiful composition.

[@davidmaemone8994]

Thank you!

[@jfishnotes9177]

Love it David! Listening to this has enforced my decision to buy an OB6 (and pair it with a Specular Tempus). Thank you!

[@jaeryan1337]

It does not get prettier than this ❤️

[@nico_valerga]

Finally a video of someone making music with an OB-6. That sounds BEAUTIFUL!

[@davidmaemone8994]

Thank you so much!

[@franciscomoralesmusic]

Finally! Beautiful chords and sounds instead an arpeggiator !!!😉👍🏻

[@Dave311Freak]

When that filter opens up. Goosebumps.

[@istvanzoltankiss]

I have goosebumps, everytime I listen to this beauty! Great composition on a great synth. 👏👏👏

[@Richard-qx8jk]

So beautiful! I have listened to this countless times, and was a huge deciding factor in my purchase of an OB-6. A stunningly beautiful sounding instrument, especially with the Strymon reverb! I will be getting the Big Sky or an H9 Max soon. Awesome composition!

[@synth4ever]

So beautiful, thank you for sharing your work. Please post more often! :)

[@2010MrWhitewolf]

when a synth has this type of sound it can bring tears to your eyes..........whats why I bought one :) Excellent composition mate, I really liked this a lot!!!!!

[@SlowDescentToWild]

Stunningly beautiful!

[@vkm.official]

You hit me so hard in the feels that I landed in my childhood. Powerful, man. Powerful. 👏🏼 Also, you’ve sold me on the OB-6. Thank you.

[@davidmaemone8994]

Appreciate that so much!

[@vkm.official]

@@davidmaemone8994 Since I posted that, 6 months ago, the sequence of events from watching this video and buying the OB-6 opened up an entire career in music production and composition. 😂 So, it was even more powerful than I thought at the time. Thanks for putting me on the path! Amazing how a few notes can change everything!

[@davidmaemone8994]

@@vkm.official Amazing, I love hearing that!

[@lifesynthtance]

Sounds absolutely beautiful ! Great combo 👍

[@FuturLab]

Beautiful.

[@kevpark]

I can't count how many times I've come back to this absolutely beautiful piece. Surprised each time to see that one dislike.

[@kevpark]

Back again. Now two?!?

[@RayyMusik]

This has to become a film score!

[@john9291]

I love how he tweaks a few filter settings toward the end and he gets a different beautiful timbre altogether. That's the OB-6 for you.

[@boybianchi]

Stunningly beautiful. Sound AND progression.

[@hawk194]

Beautifully done.

[@1881Gordon]

Haunting and beautuful.. That goes for both the constantly changing synth Patch and the keyboard playing. Brilliant!

[@yongamusic]

So beautiful. Makes me happy I have this machine

[@scentline]

For the first time in my research for weeks to decide what my first serious HW synth should be, I feel like I found a real musicial instrument that touches my heart. Thanks for your beautiful music.

[@humbleprogress1226]

This sounds amazing man.

[@zazz63]

has a certain vangellis vibe...beautiful sounds...love the way you rack up the filter to make the brass really bite and give it that regal buildup...perfect.

[@crypticmoses7844]

That was amazing! Wow!

[@Neuronaluniverse]

LOVELY SONG. Muy bonitas notas para escuchar en la noche. bravo!!

Merci c'est très beau

[@jdoo]

Thanks David. I added a Big Sky to my setup today, and this was the first tune I used with it. Thanks for the inspiration! (Strymon owes a sale, to you ) ;) This really wrings a lot of extra timbre from the OB-6.

[@davidmaemone8994]

Awesome to hear that, enjoy!

[@gatorgoforth3097]

Incredible. I wish you had written down your patch info or saved it to share with all of us. Kudos.

[@StuartRochabrunt]
