OH SNAP!
I'm sure this is very simple but I can't seem to get it to sound this good, anyone care to shed some light on the main LFO bell-ish synth in this song:

Here should be an easy one. Can't seem to replicate it exactly.

The pluck sound that starts at 0:15. Any advice?

With what?

I think it's a preset in my Virus C, but I'm not certain. The sound depends on a certain filter character; almost as if it's bandpass, not regular lowpass but I could be wrong. Could be that there's a separate compressor on the dry channel to mess with the attack and alter its shape.

Here, try this if you have Massive.

That file isn't working for me for some reason. I have massive, yeah, so I guess you could just post a screenshot? I have 1.0.1.008 so not sure why it's not opening..

thanks though man :)

That's the reason - this is 1.1.4 with the new filter models.

Everything you don't see is set to the same settings as the INIT PATCH it starts with. I've assigned macro control 2 (not that it matters what you pick) to the cutoff so you can easily automate it.




It's not perfect, but hopefully good enough for government work :v:

Thanks man, updated my Massive and it sounds great.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to find a bass like the one used in this song?

Bass starts around 2 minutes. I think he's using the minimoog plugin, and I tried that but couldn't get that funky sound. Cheers!

I think it's pretty much impossible to tell anything about that bass sound from this particular recording. A little about the volume env, a little about the portamento amount, and then there's nothing else that could be heard from that video with any accuracy.

Sorry, I should've just linked the song. Here's the final product, you can hear the bass better.

How can I get this super warm synth that starts at around 0:48? Has a horn-esque feel to it. Seems like it should be super simple with some filter envelopes but I can't get it nearly as thick. Also god drat the chords in this remix are amazing.

Any advice on recreating the high pitch synth that comes in at 0:51 here? It seems like there's some keytracking controlling the phase or LFO or something?

There's also a really cool filtered piano type sound that plays right before that and I'm curious if it's a synth or a filtered piano.. sounds like the latter to me but I can't tell. Mainly interested in that first synth though. Cheers!

Any ideas on what this sound at 0:54 is? It sounds like some kind of saw synth layered with a xylophone maybe? It's hard to tell.
