I just downloaded and tried out the wonderful new additive synthesis synth Atze by roy thinnes (and others)
http://forums.planetz.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=27387
and fell in love with the preset PulsePad and thought to myself, this beast has great ambient potential...
I modified the PulsePad preset a bit and added a few voices, 8 in total for the grand finale, and created this small ambient piece in honor of this great new synth, Atze.
I hope you'll enjoy it!
Cheers!
Thomas

It's good. I like ambient music. The organ is nice too. I'm not a big organ fan. This sounds like a synthesizer to me.

Yes I realize it was mostly your work, but:

Real nice Brotha' Man Thomas...............
That's a sizzly Bastard 'eh?
The Additive VST's I heard could not play a nice straight tone in the upper registers like that without having an offense character to them.
This demo shows FAT up and down the keyboard really well.......

Great piece! Nice resonance and filters in the upper registers.
I can't wait to check this out myself.

Nice, meditative, piece. I was almost into theta waves when it ended...I wouldn't mind hearing a longer version, or a group of like pieces. Thanks for sharing. Also thanks for giving such a nice demo of what the Atze can do in this context. Definitely goes into my zen music playlist.

I have a tendency to produce stuff like this and I've also posted a few "like pieces" here a few years back created with Vectron:

Yeah, with all this rich resonance - if you pipe these pieces through some good speakers at high volume, they'll give you a good cleansing (like a new age 'smoothy')

Nice demo petal.
Btw, just want to say that I didn't have anything to do with Roy's cool synthesizer. He just thanked me for telling him how to get the midi program changing of presets working, which leads me to remember that it was SpaceF who originally told me how to do it when I asked him a couple of years back. So, thanks SpaceF!!

thanks hollo.
I only used one MasterVerb Pro.
Maybe I used a bit too much of it though, listening to it again...

I just drifted away - superb soundscape.
When is the 20 minute version coming out?

I came to an insight a few years back about how to compose music, which I think has been proven here: always leave your audience wanting more. If you succeed at that, you've done something right
