prog house/ house synth
View this Thread in Original format

that recent thread about making this type of music sparked a question that ive been meaning to ask.

ive been playing around with making my own house stabs/plucks
i keep ending up with deadmua5/ inpetto sounding plucks.
for once haha this is not what i want.
im at work ATM but usually a few saws filter en - no attack mid decay a little lower sustain and lower realse
similar on the amp en. thats not the settings exactly but similar and that would give me the inpetto deadmau5ish pluck.
i cant seem to get the EDX one tho.

im trying to make one similar to EDX's pluck. alot of his songs use the same lead.

eg from about 1:20 ish it starts to come up

it sounding dryer than others so im using less reverb. . .
but im still struggling to get close

ive been trying with a virus ti and also sylenth1 with no luck

any help ?

isnt that the same exact pluck..that all the other guys were/are using?

maybe some detuning..:conf:

EQ and the correct chords...automation!

Was thinking the same on chords, would also add, bring the LP filter down (EQ etc). Saw and/or square wave sound good when I used subtractor in reason. Damn I miss that synth.

make your filter release longer, you could make it easily work with sylenth.

detune 2 saws, 1 low octave 1 normal octave

turn off re trigger, and turn down the filter envelope down(the black knob) to get a warm sound.

nop quite different. . .

you know how if you put a bit reducer or rate reducer you get that slight high pitch swiggle sound i dont know how to say it any other way haha.
it sound almost like it has that.

Thanks for the link to the tune - that's exactly what I like now - very few elements, hardly any layering yet sounds great, damn!

this is "just" many of the pluck sounds readily available in your Virus TI banks, or Sylenth or NEXUS
just with a bit of tweaked amp release and playing with the cutoff with a bit of res in order to get that metallic top feel.

i.e. the "Armin Pluck" patch on the V-station is already quite close. play it with low velocity and filter about 45%

is that from the Adam van Baker bank? if that's the case, it sounds a bit weak when the filter opens up. Any way to resolve that without layering?

play it a lower octave, and/or EQ to give some mid

some tweaking of the onboard fx might help as well
