Hi,

I'm hoping someone can help please? I know its not really the done thing to try and copy or recreate other peoples sounds but this one's been really bugging me for such a long time that I really want to get it nailed. The pluck in question is from Daniel Kandi's "Breathe". I can get close but just can't get it right across the entire range. Is it layered? Is the filter routed in someway?

If anyone could have a listen and please help me disect it I will be eternally grateful! Starts at 3:44 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVxlF-Pd3xI

Many thanks in advance!

it's the anjuna pluck, this must be a preset as is sooo generic. This plucks are usually layers of 2 notes.

sounds alot like sylenth as well. Pretty sure any kinda 3x OSC could emulate that pluck fairly easily.

what Vst's you got i'll do a patch when i get home after work.

I'm sure the biggest part of a pluck is the volume and filter envelope just get them right and the rest is tweaking the waveform.

Hi all, thanks for the replies. Been away from the computer all day so first chance to respond. I've got Sylenth and V-Station so if you could do me a patch that would be great. As I said before, I can get pretty close but just can't quite get there, especIally when the cut-off is swept through the lower half. It's very 'warm' at the bottom and and the wave form at the half way point isn't quite there. Once I get up the top end the saws sound pretty close.

I've heard a lot of Anjuna plucks before but for me there's something extra special about the one Daniel uses on this track.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Sorry, just read that back... I meant to say that the original is very warm at the bottom end but still cuts through the mix nicely. Mine efforts never have enough sustain and warmth when the cutoff is low.

you can try to compensate with equalizers

its a saw! woah
