Patch Request: Mario Kart 8 - Synth Lead (Classic Lead Sound)

Patch / Preset Recreated

I'm a big fan of classic lead sound of the early nintendo music era. So here's my request, I'm trying to replicate the lead at 1min45 and I need your help, I have no idea where to start.

I'm quite late, however, after looking at the NEWER VGM Sound Sources google sheet, it looks like the patch Iconic Brass from UVI's Digital Sensations. In other words, It's a poly synth brass.

Thank you Joe! I'm glad you awnsered my request!
I feel it's pretty close to the lead on the track!

My attempt:

How It's Made

  • Oscillator: Two saws, one detuned up 3 cents to create some mild pulsation
  • Unison: 4 voice, pretty strong Detune (around 12:30). Sending the two detuned saws into this Unison creates a much larger, almost 8-voice-like pulsation
  • Filter: Low Pass, with a little key tracking to keep things bright when playing higher notes. Cutoff around Noon, though the true brightness will be set by...
  • Filter Envelope: Small amount (knob around 10:00), max sustain, and a pretty quick 20 ms attack. This creates a subtle horn-like fatness on the attack transient.
  • Portamento: Just a tad, around 17ms. Puts a little bend between notes
  • Delay: Put some space behind this, with 1/16th Time, Feedback at noon, Mix at about 18% Wet

Because I cannot edit my post, I replying to myself to send a mp3 of the sound I'm trying to patch.

The lead start at 2sec.
