One of the ways I go about keeping my work unique and interesting (at least that's the goal!) is making my own custom sounds. It’s an easy way to elevate your compositions to new heights and set you apart from other composers in the industry. You don't need a recording studio or even a lot of gear to do it though. I'll show you how I make a complex texture using only a single source and three plugins. Featuring TaiChi Reverb from LiquidSonics.
