How can i create a sound like the sound in this? sounds like compressed some kind of saw?
you can hear it before the singing starts

perhaps any vst that has a very similar sound ?

You going to have to be more specific. All I hear is a short noise crescendo and the lead synth having a little increase in the Amp Release.

white noise

its the sound that you immedietely hear the first second the song starts.. the sound can also be heard in these songs:

(you hear it rise up before the beat drops).. then the beat drops and the sound comes back with it.

haha im not talking about the white noise. im talking about the actually melodic sequence

Are you talking about the chord plucks?

yes sir

Just a simple saw with the amp set to no attack, short decay, little to no sustain or release. You can set the filter env the same, but increase the decay just a little bit higher than the amp D and add some res to the filter to give it a little bit more "thwack". You'll have to play around with it a bit to get the right sound, but that's basically it. Then play triads or inverted triads with that patch.

thanks il try that.. any particular vst saw sound that i can start with? like maybe any of the NEXUS2 sounds or Sylenth1?

For the purposes of making that patch, a saw is a saw is a saw. There really isn't THAT much difference between the OSC waveforms of different instruments to warrant one over the other for the purposes of creating that particular patch.

Keep in mind that, as with all sounds you hear in tracks, the exact sound is going to be impossible to replicate exactly as you hear it because that sound played on its own likely will not sound the same. Each sound in the track is going to be highly dependent on the context of the other sounds in the track. So each one of those tracks may have the same basic sound, but they all have different types of delay, reverb, compression (as an effect) and other effects that give them that sound.

ya that makes sense. thank u
