Here is a song composed, recorded, and mixed entirely on the Oasys, October 23, 2011. Scroll to the bottom of the page indicated above.

No external instruments, signal processors, or sequencers were used. The recording consists of 15 MIDI tracks and no audio tracks. I had to conserve polyphony on this piece, as tracks were dropping out on earlier mixes.

This song is in my collection on T.S. Eliot. The title is a line from The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock.

[SCHWEATS]

I hear a reverb wash that obscures most everything except the pipe organ
type sound. I hear drums but they are without any definition as is most everything except for the pipe organ sound that is front and center. My monitors are KRK V6 w/ a sub woofer and Yamaha NS-10ms.
I would read up on mixing. Perhaps " The Mixing Engineer's Handbook" 2nd Edition by Bobby Owsinski would be of benefit.

If you're having polyphony problems, then I'd suggest learning how to bounce some midi tracks to audio to free up any polyphony issues. An external sequencer I believe would be of great benefit , unless…
a) you don't want to take the time to learn one
b) you simply like the internal sequencer.
After working with machines or all stripe for 30 + years , the immense
flexibility of any computer and a full featured Pro level Software application like Digital Performer, Pro Tools, Logic™, Cubase, or Sonar far outweighs the O's internal sequencer. However, that's your perogative.

I heard the first song, it had an interesting feel and some nice melodic lines.
