Patch Request: The Cars - Let's Go (Acid Lead)

Patch / Preset Recreated

Hi,
is it possible to make the lead synth from "The Cars - Let's Go"?

Here is the youtube link:

I think the "LEAD Acid LFO" from the factory presets is similar.

It doesn’t use ms so how do I convert it to what’s on my one (numbers from 0-127!)

Without having access to the DSI I wouldn't be able to tell you the value conversion. However, this decay is just determining how fast the "eeeeeoooooow" moves downward. Just listen carefully to the speed and adjust the knob until it matches.

Hullo,
If anyone can help me with this, I would greatly appreciate it.
I have a DSI rev2 and the settings are in a different numeric language. (Ssssh pipe down)

This patch is made by modulating Oscillator Sync. You're right, the LEAD Acid LFO is similar. It modulates a distorted filter, which achieves a similar effects, but it's not quite the same.

How It's Made

  • Synth: Primer
  • Oscillator: Set mix to 100% Osc 2, set Osc 2 to Square, enable Osc Sync, set Osc 2 semi to 9
  • Modulation: Route Mod Envelope to Osc 2 Pitch. Set Mod Env amount to around noon, and decay to 3885 ms
  • Performance: Mod wheel triggered vibrato. Set LFO destination to Pitch, Amount to 0, and Rate to 1/16. Set Mod Wheel destination to LFO Amount. Crank Mod Wheel whenever you want vibrato
