Blade Runner Blues lead sound

That harmonica sound, how do you make it with free synths?

I know he used a CS80 but im not about to buy one or a soft version.

[Schiffbauer]

Try the CS80R from Rick Jekliffe or synth 1 and twiddle with the resonance and Filter-Attack, Decay. A wide/long Reverb and smooth delay is very useful. For the real feeling use the Modwheel with a slow LFO-rate and the pitchwheel, where you bend the tone and the end of a note.

Try the CS80R from Rick Jekliffe

Whats that? cant find it anywhere.

Do you by any chance have a patch for Synth1? i suck at sound design.

[Schiffbauer]

So please look here on kvr in the "Quick Instrument links" - scoll down to the cs80R from Rick Jeliffe and download it.

wtf, what an ugly gui ...
well, it mimics a cs80, architecture wise, exept the cs80 had poly aftertouch of course...
but it just doesn't reach the originals fatness, the filter is just a plain filter, nor are the osc's sounding somewhere near ...
and for the architecture one has to pay with insane cpu usage ...
well, synthedit again ...
however, to get back to the topic:
just do as schiffbauer said.
additional info:
- use pulsewaves (fairily thin pulse width), and slightly detune them.
- use afterouch to increase the loudness with it.
allthough vangelis did this also with volume pedal, you can achive similar results on it.
- use a modulating reverb-tail with it.

listen here (first sound), i did it with albino, taken from my additional soundset for it ...
