Patch Request: Deep Modulated Pad
Patch / Preset Recreated
Hi,
I am trying to recreate this PAD on DIVA. Link below, comes in the track starts at 1:25 and the filter gradually open on it.
So I tried a saw wave with a 24dB low pass filter applied so none of the high buzzing frequencies of the saw come in. ALso put an envelope on the filter cutoff with a slow attack and quick decay. I think this pad is a chord, however its pitch changes which has me confused. Is it two chords played in succession with legato on? Seems to be the same envelope, it doesn't re-trigger
Can hear it clearer in the breakdown at 3:45
Also there is some sort of LFO being applied to Volume or Filter not sure. My sound didn't really come very close.
Need some help on this. I think a second set of ears is required.
THANKS

I know what you mean. It's a mystery.....

Nice, I did actually get close thanks!
I also think it is just a Dbmin 7 chord, but there is something done on the reverb tail or there is a subtle effect on the synth, that when the chord releases (lift your hands) it seems as it changes notes.
At least I think so, but I'm sure there is a neat subtle trick hiding in there 😀

Try this:
Oscillators: Two osc, one saw, the other pulse with medium pulse width. Both with a wide 4-voice (maybe more?) unison, with enough detune to make it vibrate.
Filter: 24dB lowpass, cutoff around noon, and a heavy amount of resonance to give it an almost throaty vowel shape.
LFO: Modulate the volume with a triangle or sine wave. Adjust the rate until it matches the recording.
Notes: It's hard to tell what's going on with the notes at
1:25
Sometimes it sounds like they're changing, but I can't really tell. In the later example at
3:45
it sounds like they're just holding a root position Dbmin7 chord.
