Okay, there's 2 patches at work here.
One is a bass patch that doesn't change notes when the 2nd one does.
The 2nd one, the lead, sounds fm-ish, with a little glitch thrown in. Plus some 1 to 5 millisecond spaced delay thrown in to fatten and sweeten the sound.
Maybe this helps?
Purple, Ganymede, Purple, Vivaldi, NeoKillerX2 or Purple would probably be really good at this sound. Also, if you can isolate just a short snippet of the leadnote by itself, you could analyze it and get it spot-on with Spectra. I've done some very glitchy presets with Spectra.

Hi,
thanks for the reply. But I still have no idea what settings one needs to produce this sound. I'm a bit helpless here. Maybe someone knows a patch from a well-known VSTi which sounds close.
I'd really be happy if someone could give further help.

Sorry, but this is the wrong way I think...EJo wrote:Try using a distortion plugin like Amplitube, on a sinus wave. Also use a room reverb.Zoomby wrote:hi,
can someone tell me how to create this common synth sound? what's the trick?

Call me silly, but it doesnt sound very FMy to me. I hear portamento and probable distortion, but not FMness. And it sounds like one instance(meaning one patch) to me.

yeah they think the FM part is the bass maybe... I've heard some many synth sounds i cant really tell you the presets but i know its in the motif's :-/ so if is professional it was prolly made from a moduler or keyboard...
otherwise it's prolly just a vsti wit and someone prolly played wit the osc's

Hello Chase, I just listened to the snippet again, and you may be right, it could be one patch, with 2 parts, in one instance. Soon after I wrote my first post to this thread I started thinking maybe a phase distortion synth? Or maybe a DX7 emulation (but that would be fm), or maybe an additive synth. Seems to me that several types of synths could do that sound.The Chase wrote:Call me silly, but it doesnt sound very FMy to me. I hear portamento and probable distortion, but not FMness.

I just took a short break and tried AlgoMusic's Phadiz (phase distortion) to see if it would do it and it pretty much will. FREE: http://www.algomusic.nl/freeware.html It's a cool synth. Start with the wobble patch, and add a 2nd pulse wave to each oscillator. Go with a high pass filter and tweak it a little to roll off some of the bass. In the effects section turn the delay time so low that you cannot hear separate delays, feedback medium low, LPF all the way down, and the mix all the way up. Tweak portamento to taste. It's not totally spot on, but getting close, it still needs just a little more zing - maybe preamp compression or ampsim. - or a different phase disto synth?
Bone's NeokillerX2 would probably do it too, but its cpu usage crashes my host.

This sounds like oscillator synchronisation. A plain analog technique by the way, nothing digital here (though the synth could be a VA of course).Here is how to program a typical sync sound (you need 2 oscillators):
1. Set both oscillators to square wave.
2. Tune them about 2 octaves apart (the interval doesn't need to be harmonic).
3. Activate sync on the higher tuned oscillator so that it restarts its wave everytime the first oscillator restarts.
4. Add a little portamento.
5. Play B3-B4-B4-B3-B4 with 1/8 notes.
I made a patch for the Pro-53 that sounds quite close to your sample (I used the delay section to fake the reverb however).
