.131 Shimmering With Reason's Combinator





I could have sworn I already posted this Combinator, but not being able to find it either in my archive or by clicking through the blog, I'm posting it now. Shimmering, like a lot of the Combinators I post, is a set of subtle, atmospheric processing intended to "beef up" a pad or synth sound. It achieves this effect by using my usual tricks (outlined a week ago in my post for the Borealis Combinator), but it also uses Reason's Chorus and Unison effects to thicken things up a tad.

This patch also uses a Scream patch by DJ Drunken Master, who posted his favorite Scream settings in a discussion on the Reason forum years and years ago. I've been using his settings for a long time now and find them very helpful for adding just a touch of tape saturation.
