I was playing around with my Access Virus Classic synth, and I managed to make this weird Arpeggiator like sound. I don't know what the hell is it, and why it does this.

here's an mp3 sample

All I do there is bashing the note C and A.

Here's the "recipe" for the Virus classic synth. It'd probaly work on other Access Virus synths as well. And maybe it'd work on other synths.

quote:

LFO rate = 0 LFO waveform = Sawtooth. (it works on other waveforms as well, but it sounds best with the sawtooth waveform.) OSC 1 amount = 64 or 127 if possible Release = 64 Extra Unison. It sounds devil ish. Sine wave to make it sound spooky OSC 2 semitone = -6 or +6 with -1 octave Enable the Arpeggiator at 1/16 Subosc = triangle Effects. (reverb, delay, distortion and so on)

I tried doing it with Reason. It works with NN-XT but not as good as it does with the Virus. Because NN-XT won't let you set the LFO at 0. It's limited to 0.3 hz or something.

Now, why does this happen? I'd be glad if someone could explain this to me.

Not an impressive sound coming from the Virus imo.

Huh, It's not like I'd use it in a song or anything. I just think it sounds weird.

you could do this with fl studio and 3 osc :/

It didn't work for me with 3osc. :\ Could you upload the patch?

Sounds like a dungeon in Legend of Zelda for nes

this made me lol more than it should have.


The sound sounds "weird" probably because of the LFO.

But yeah that was pretty weak.
