Bear in mind that rifling through presets will only get you so far. At some point you'll have to crack open your synth and craft a sound yourself. (You can, of course, start with a preset [and usually will], but when you get good at this stuff, you'll find yourself rarely able to use a preset unaltered.)

FYI, there are no samples in my Eleventh Hour theme except the Derbyshire scream and drone.

No no no that's like loads more work say it ain't so. I'll have a crack tonight with the synthmaker plugin I have.

Yeah thought so, it sounded too clear to be a sample.

Ok new version of "Unreal" @ http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7058628/Doctor Who - Unreal.mp3

It's shorter, has a better oo-ee-oo sound and has a few extra notes added for texture.

You keep messing up your Dropbox links. I've been fixing them for you every time.

All you do to copy a link is place a file in your Public folder and then right-click it, go to Dropbox, and click Copy Public Link, then just paste that link as is. You shouldn't be changing it. They do it all for you.
