Patch Request: Boards Of Canada - Sundown (Vangelis Style Pad)

Thank you so much Joe. This is very helpful! 😀

This is a nice old school Vangelis-style pad.

It evolves throughout the track. I hear the detune amount changing, and the filter cutoff changing. So this will be a good starting point.

How It's Made

• Synth: Primer
• Oscillator: Saw
• Unison: 4 voices, medium spread, 0.12 Detune. This spreads it out and gives it that nice washy detuned sound
• Noise: -8.7 dB. Adds to the washiness and makes less "clean" sounding
• Filter: Low Pass (24 dB). Cutoff 0.62, Res 0.3 to give it some point. Key Tracking 0.57 to brighten the higher notes
• Amp Envelope: Attack 1282 ms, Release 1119ms. Nice and long entries and exits
• Reverb: Size 0.9, Mix 77% Wet. This not only puts it in a big room, but it also gives it a bit of a metallic sheen.
• Voices: Poly mode, 6 voices
