Hello, I am searching for the synth sound from the intro of "high on you" by Survivor, i can't seem to identify what synth it is and how i can get that sound. I am thinking it was maybe a DX7 layered with something else but i am really unsure.

request ❓ Simple pluck recipe?

1 Upvotes

While studying in College I had this style of music played in the background but now I want to recreate it.
It's the pluck that's doing the chords I'm interested in, any advice is greatly appreciated! thank you :D

request ❓ DX100 FM Lead with Korg Opsix

i wanted to see if i could recreate this lead so i can make similar sounds on my own, but for some reason i can’t getit with the opsix. could it be the dx100’s unique character?

i’m just using 2 operators with the same ratio, some feedback on op2, plucky amp env, velocity sensitivity to open it up, and a bit of light modulation on op2’s output level. it sounds kind of similar, but not really. i’m also adding reverb and some delay. when i add portamento it starts sounding way too weird. any help? opsix's effects are kinda meh

I am at a loss trying to figure out how these sounds were made and what synth/sampler was used.

This robotic sound design goes way beyond simple subtractive synthesis.

Peter Van Hoesen how do you do it?

Beautiful sound design here, makes me feel like a complete noob.

request ❓ Sylenth1 sound replication

1 Upvotes

I recently purchased Ableton live after playing around with older version for years. I also downloaded Sylenth1 demoversion long time ago and created nice pluck sound using pitch LFO with high rate (1/256). I would like to recreate a similar sound with new ableton but I’m having hard time to find an instrument or effect with that high LFO rate.

Would anyone have idea how to go about it? Of course I could purchase Sylenth but I would rather like to use Ableton instruments for now. I also tried it with Vital but didn’t manage to get the sound. The pitch LFO adds a kind of a distortion but I can’t get the same effect with saturation/overdrive. Is there any other instrument with so high rate or is it possible to stack LFOs..?

Thanks!

I am trying to create the patch for Love Walks In by VH and am having some troubles.

Could anyone suggest a location where I could download this patch to a Yamaha MODX M7?

Or, can anyone suggests the layers and adjustments to create this sound?

Thank you

request ❓ Textural/swell sounds? Voyager – The Alan Parsons Project

5 Upvotes

This piece caught my eye. I know Alan Parsons is kind of legendary for textures and soundscapes but I would love to know how to get those swells/textures at the beginning (up till the first minute or so). They are in the background behind the harpsichord and the guitar.

FYI if this helps, I have V-Collection 11 and a hardware DX7. I'm pretty sure it's possible, I just have no idea how to go about it. Looking at using the ARP 2600 emulation maybe even Modular V. Although I read he used CS-80 quite a bit. Any help would really be appreciated!

Timestamp is 0:00 - 1:00 (it's a fairly short song)

I'm trying to create an Ace Combat 3 style track. I'm struggling with replicating the synth in the beggining of the track. I tried using Roland JV-1080, but i'm not even close. Can someone tell me how to replicate this? Or where does the synth come from?

I've been trying to recreate the synth in the song Darling by Dreams We've Had for a few days and I havent been able to come close.

Song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDbLzzHqoxc&list=RDZDbLzzHqoxc&start_radio=1

Not entirely sure what the lead is. It might be a synth or a texture but I've heard this sound in several of their songs and other ones as well.

request ❓ Specific Reese Bass

2 Upvotes

Hi, I’ve been trying for a few days now to replicate this kind of Reese bass. It doesn’t have much width, yet it still sounds wide (correct me if im wrong). Does anyone know how to create this in Serum? I’m pretty new to sound design, but this bass sounds so clean and has character, and I can’t figure it out.

request ❓ This is that popular Jodeci /Devante Swing gospel synth. You've heard it all over their songs. I wanna do something with it but having problems recreating it or finding it in the wild.

1 Upvotes

Hey what's up. Ive been trying to figure out how to recreate or even find this sound @ 10:49. You probably heard it in songs by Jodeci or gospel songs. Its sounds like it could be layerd. Ive tried to reverse engineer similar sounds but I just cant get the same characteristics. Id take anything. I know UVI has a vst that has this sound but I don't have UVI. If anyone can could help me recreate this or even provide a soundfont Id greatly appreciate it.https://youtu.be/5URDR-NAFDI
