New omnichord day

Post by finboy »

An omnichord popped up close to me so I am working out a deal on it. Seeing the list of names associated with this weird piece of kit, and checking out so,e YouTube videos has me pretty excited. Hipsters seem to be tight in the pants over the om84 (series 2) model, but from what I have found so far, they were all analog including the 300 series, and didn't change over until the Q-chord.

Anyone have one of these? Any differences I missed between the 100 and the 84 besides the more features in the 100 and different design? How much will I hurt my amps if I run this through them?

Quick run through, the his came from GarageBand, I keep having trouble with that on all my recordings (somewhere in the conversion to soundcloud from GarageBand), not sure why. A quick run through of the chime settings, then a quick run through with some garage band phaser, flanger, and fuzz...

this is a foolproof method of dealing with all that nasty hiss

step 1) make lo-fi/electronic/noise album
step 2) ???
step 3) PROFIT

Figured it out, garage band isn't hard doing the effect to the track, so by having the fuzz still on when rendering, it does the whole track. I will try another cut tomorrow, should clear things up.

Edit: new recording uploaded!
