This is a list of many custom instruments and sounds created by the OS community.
NOTICE: any instruments that do not sound good will be deleted, so don’t bother unless you are sure your instrument is good. Also, when you add an instrument, please do it in the same format as all the other ones.
Instruments
Oboe/Bassoon
Creator: Solea
How to create:
- Select synthesizer or create a clone.
- Set the waveform to sawtooth
- Set the filter to lowpass and set the frequency to somewhere around 1200
- Change the LFO to pitch, and set the intensity to 5
- click on the ASDR envelope and set the attack, decay, and release to 0. Then, set the sustain to around 0.5.
- In advanced options, set Classic Reverb to about the middle of the slider
- Click EQ and set the High and Mid EQs to around 20.
- Turn the volume down to your liking.
To make the oboe more realistic, use markers to increase the pitch LFO intensity on long sustains.

How to create:
- Select flute or create a clone.
- Set the reverb to Classic (100%)
- Set the distortion to hornet (100%)

Bagpipes
Creator: spira.
How to create:
- Select synthesizer or create a clone.
- Set the waveform to sawtooth
- Set the filter to lowpass and set the frequency to somewhere around 1200
- Set the resonance all the way up to 10
- Change the LFO to pitch, and set the intensity to 5
- click on the ASDR envelope and set the attack to 0.60, the decay to 0.90, the sustain to 0.60, and the release to 0
- In advanced options, set Large Reverb to around 0.30
- Click distortion and set it to Hornet with an intensity of 0.55
- Click EQ and set the High EQ to around 9
- Set the detune to -1200 (optional)
Now, make a clone of the bagpipe, and set the detune to about 10-20 cents above the first synth. Layer both on top of each other to get the bagpipe sound.

Ragtime Piano Sustain
Creator: Unknown
How to create:
- Create your desired melody with grand piano
