lead synths

i was reading the tutorial on synths. i gather from it that a lead synth sound is made from multiple frequencies (/or oscillators?) together bouncing off each at the same time at different pitches.(detuned?)

(im using albino) can it create say 6 different frequencies at the same time, or do i need to load the same synth 6 times and adjust the pitch of them all and then layer them together? thanks

there was supposed to be a 4th part to the synth guide which shows u how to put it all together and make a lead synth, but it hasnt been made. the 1st three parts were good for background, but a bit useless, or disapointing unless it shows u how to implement the theory. thats why im asking...

unless I'm misunderstanding something, a "lead synth" is purely the sound that will be the lead of your track - usually the main melody, hook whatever you wanna call it. So there is no set way to make a lead, it is purely what you decide will be the main sound that gets the most attention.

I think what you are talking about is how to make a supersaw which is the sound used for the majority of trance melodys - think verecocha - carte blance for example.

To do this, you need to use a number of oscillators all set to a saw wave and then detune them slightly from each other. That is the basics of it but there are numerous ways and techniques to get it sounding good.

yeah thats what im talking about. veracocha carte blanche is a true classic ferry is the man, that tune is perfect.

pulser has great leads. blue horizon - the journey PULSER MIX has the best lead ever.

so i will try pro53 that looks simple to use compared to albino

vanguard is perfect for beginners to make big room trance leads so give that a go. I would also recommend camelphat as an effect plugin. drop it on any sound, turn up the distortion knobs and you'll see what i mean...

Some synths allow you to choose from a large number of different waveforms for the oscillator to generate. how do u do this??

Get Synth1, it's free and has a built in supersaw osc. No need to fake it with layering.

some hugh tracks were made with vanguard, alphazone being one producer thats a user! mark sherry!

u dont have a clue mate, ur questions have to be the dumbst ive red on here yet!

stick to the indian bells!

Posted by rubez on Apr-19-2007 23:04:

mark sherry doesnt use vanguard
i can believe alphazone use vanguard. their sound is cheap and its the same all the time.

ive only been layering synths for less than a week and ive read some of the stickies. my results are 10 times better than what u learned in a few days

Jesus f-in' christ you ask a lot of questions! That's already 5 threads on the front page of this forum alone, all asking inane questions. Why don't you try working SLOWLY through the tutorials and learn to walk before trying to run?
