Skylines synth - CAMEL

Postby mon8169 » 29 May 2011, 10:57

Hi all,

this is my first contribution to the Patches Forum. Not a great or difficult synth to program, but I'm decided to learn how to exploit the synth partition and had to start somewhere.

Here's the original song, the synth starts at 1:48:


Here are the preview and the program:

To obtain the vibrato, move the modulation wheel to taste....


BUT NOW I HAVE A QUESTION: how can I achieve in the NS Synth the great effect that can be seen at the end of the solo in the following live video at 3:15?



thanks in advance
Ramon

Excellent programming and playing Ramon!

I don't think that the wild vibrato at the end of the live solo will be possible with the synth section of the Nord because certain parameters are somewhat fixed and limited "maximum modulation depth being one of them".

Peter Bardens, the keyboardist of that era, was one of my favorites.
It's interesting that he chose a square waveform in the live solo.

Without patches, or presets on the Minimoog, the sound was liable to be different with each show.

Thanks for sharing, you're awesome!

thank you for your kind words!!

I've also tried to achieve the wild vibrato with the phaser 2 and it sounds quite good on the wild side, but I couldn't make it sound good in the no-vibrato parts.

BTW, I hear a keyclick in the patch, starting each note, and couldn't get rid of. Any idea where is it produced?

Hi Ramon,
You're welcome. I love your handmade drawbars controller.

The click is the filter being modulated by a rather sharp envelope.
If you'll reduce the "LP Filter, Freq control, mod envelope" setting to zero then adjust the LP Filter frequency to suit tastes, that should eliminate the click.
As an alternate solution; slightly increase the amp envelope attack time, that should do the trick also.
Cheers, Hanon
