Specific pad type sound help

I've always had trouble with pads and atmosphere, I read stuff all the time, watch videos, and still can't quite get the sounds I'm after.

I've been trying to pick sounds to emulate just to get better at making things in general, and I'd really like to know what goes into making this particular sound.

I know there's some filtering, but I can't quite get anything really close to it.

If you have ideas, or thoughts on waveforms to load up, types of reverb, I'm all ears.

Thanks for any tips and pointers to get me goin in the right direction.


The sound starts about 3:00 in this track:

Sounds to me like a saw/sine sweep.
Just modulate the cutoff to have a high attack, and some release.
Cutoff moving towards low end.
Also on one of the OSC seems to be a BP filter moving, seperate of the first osc.

Dont search throught presets, just firstly try get the tone of the sound then recreate the movement. Then add reverb.

Those are choir Ooohs and Aaahs. If you have a synth that has those then you are money. Omnisphere has a ton of them.

Thanks for the suggestions.

The oos and ahs one is interesting, I never really considered that as an option.

Thanks again guys.
