Topic: Electric B12 (new beeper tune)

New Beeper tune I was working on tonight

Unfinished but I thought it was worth uploading as I've not uploaded anything for a while.
Old faithful Qchan engine and Beepola this time.
Still one of my favourite engines as it always reminds me of the classic Tim Follin tunes on the 80s.

I enjoy Qchan too. It reminds me of the classic AtariTufty tunes as well smile
Great composition!

Cheers Garvalf.

I’ve always loved Qchan, even it’s odd unexpected squeaks and overtones add interest. Decided I needed more variation from phaser 3 on my new album

Team Qchan represent! Also still one of my favourite engines. Those envelopes are magic.
Also classic Tufty style at it's finest.

QChan is a tough engine to master with its weak low end, and AtariTufty certainly is the black belt master.

I really like how this single-pin approach in QChan managed to maintain many of the Follin's multi-pin qualities without the vacuum cleaner background drone, it was a happy accident rather than a conscious design back then.

Maybe it is time to give it some small update, tho? Sampled drums perhaps?

Wow thanks Shiru smile

Qchan with sampled drums would be amazing. Always lift a track for me. Buzzkik is given another level because of them
