Round 73 intro / parameters
This round accepts vocal samples!
This round accepts personally recorded performances!

The samplepack/vsts this round were suggested by Airmann
The samplepack is drums from Goldbaby New Zealand,
and is a collection of various royalty free samples from several of their packs.

This round features just 1 vst instrument and is the versatile u-he TyrellN6 - A stunning free Virtual Analog Synth for Win/Mac

u-he TyrellN6 Windows Download
u-he TyrellN6 Mac download

vst effects allowed are:
tal reverb III - A stereo plate reverb, since most trackers don't have one and it's great for electronic music


TDR Feedback Compressor II - A nice and transparent real feedback compressor


(Downloads for the vst effects are provided at their sites, since there are separate versions for Win32/Win64/Mac)

Non-Renoise / non-VST users may use Tracker-internal synthesis, or use another VST Host to render to sample and use those samples. (This includes Sunvox internal generators)
