Lo-fi space cadets Harmonic 33 use GMedia's excellent M-Tron to help create their retro soundscapes. It's an emulation of that tape-based proto-ROMpler, the Mellotron, as used by The Beatles, Radiohead et al. If you'd like to get the same kind of feel without spending, a free Mellotron emulation is available: MelloSound. Set its attack and release times to long values, and then douse with a little reverb for instant organic vibes. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. Effects 12. 13.

Subtractive synthesis is easily the most important type of synthesis you will come across.
Why? Because everything that falls under the subtractive umbrella term has gone on to directly influence other types of synthesis such as additive, wavetable, frequency modulation and nearly anything else you can think of. The term is descriptive as it’s about sculpting sounds from harmonically rich waveforms using filters, envelopes, LFOs and amplitude shaping, and it’s the sound of quite literally thousands of records dating from the sixties right up until now.

Each of the basic components of synthesizers are explained, along with descriptions and examples of how these components are chained together to make interesting sounds. The principles discussed are not unique to any specific synthesis platform, but are applicable to music synthesis in general. I hope this article will help interested musicians and composers access the academic tools and literature associated with electronic music. The text of this article is accompanied by illustrations, audio examples, and links to working demonstrations in PureData. You can download PureData by clicking here. All of the PureData examples are collected in this zip file. Sound waves and oscillators Sounds are pressure waves which travel through air, or another medium, to our ears. The first such device we'll consider is called an oscillator.

It became a prototype to almost every synthesizer since then reffering to how they work, including the modern synth monsters of today. The 40 greatest synth sounds. When our friends at Future Music magazine compiled a list of the 40 greatest synth sounds of all time in 2008, it was nothing if not controversial. Inevitably, some iconic tones failed to make the cut, but few would deny that the majority of the sounds that were included have attained classic status. Now, for the first time, we can present the full list complete with analysis, audio and advice on how to go about replicating many of these sounds yourself. Read on, be inspired and then go and create a great patch of your own.First up: Goldfrapp's Mellotron classic, Utopia... Our first sound is a much-loved preset.
From the world’s first ‘sampler,’ no less. Utopia features the Mellotron sound ‘Choir 3’ in the chorus section and outro of the song, and is a huge exciting feature of the track.

Cosmosis Studio Tips: Synthesizing a 909 style kick. 8 Quick Tips on Designing Synth Basses. If you create dance music, it's important to know how to create and tweak synth bass sounds. Here's a collection of eight short sound design tips about how to make better, stylish, and more versatile synth bass sounds. 1. Octave Stacking To make my synth bass sound fatter, I use a polyphonic bassline and play two notes at once, spaced an octave apart.
This means playing C2 and C3 simultaneously, instead of just C2 or C3 alone. A similar technique is to add a second oscillator tuned an octave below. 2. With subtractive (analogue) synthesis, try combinations of different oscillators to achieve the character that you want. For a more pronounced effect, turn on oscillator sync, which will also increase the preceived amplitude of the sound. Sweetwater iOS Update - Vol. 21, VirSyn Addictive Synth App and Korg WIST.
The differences between wavetable and sample-based synthesis. The PCM standard is used in digital audio, computer music, CD production, and digital telephony. With PCM, the amplitude of the signal is moderated at regular intervals and digitally codified with a variable approximation rate, depending on the number of bits employed. We also saw in the last article that sampling is the basic element of digitization. And it's here that the terminology plays a trick on us, hold on tight… Korg MS Monophonic Synthesizers - Users Tips and Techniques. User tips and techniques ^ Here is the catch from a trawl I did of the Analogue Heaven archives for insider info and owner's tips on the MS Range.
André Majorel said this about controlling the pitch of the MS-20 with an external device, in this case an SQ-10 analogue sequencer: "You have discovered one of the reasons why Hz/V voltage control sucks! With 1V/oct voltage control, to transpose a pitch CV, you can simply add another pitch CV. With Hz/V VC, you need to *multiply* your pitch CV by a factor. Synth Secrets: Links to All Parts. Synth School, Part 1: Analogue Oscillators, Filters & LFOs. After all the political talk in recent years about a return to traditional values, PAUL WIFFEN kicks off a major new series on synth programming by arguing the Analogue Fundamentalist Party case — that an understanding of the basic elements of traditional analogue synths is essential to fully exploit the various types of synthesis available today.
