Oxygène Part IV Ultranova Recreation
Posted: Sun Jul 12, 2026 2:17 pm
Hello everyone! I made a recreation of "Oxygène Part IV" and wanted to share it with you!
For this project, I challenged myself to avoid using VSTs as much as possible. Instead, I used a Novation Ultranova to create almost every sound, and I think the result turned out pretty well. I'd really love to hear your thoughts and feedback!
Unfortunately, the mix and master aren't as good as I'd like. I actually tried hiring engineers on SoundBetter, but I had two really disappointing experiences, so I ended up doing it myself. (By the way, does anyone have any recommendations for a reliable mixing and mastering engineer?)
Here's the final result:
As I mentioned, almost every sound was created with my Novation Ultranova.
The only VSTs I used were: SuperWave Tiny Pops for drums, and Arturia Synthi V for the "Bubbles" SFX.
I later managed to recreate that effect on the Ultranova as well, so if I do another mix/master pass, I'll replace the Arturia effect with the Ultranova version.
I hope you enjoy it!
