Pink Floyd Keep Talking Synth Effect

Post by TheChiched »

Hi,
I'm looking for the synth effect that appear at the intro (that one with the delay, I don't know how to describe it :) ) I make the lead using the FM synth, pan effect and attack (if some one need it I can share it) and I only need the sample to complete the intro.

That is no talking synth, that is Stephen Hawkings computer assisted voice :-)

If you're asking about the repeating noise "chewww chewww chewww" synth:

— Noise as sound source,
— 12 dB lowpass filter, resonance pretty high,
— set the LFO to sawtooth (the lower waveform), slow — somewhere around 1.5 or 2 Hz (not kiloHertz),
— apply LFO to filter with the "freq mod 1" knob.
— set the "freq mod 2" knob to zero (middle).
— adjust the Filter Frequency until it sounds right.

If you want, set the amp attack to extremely short, and the release to fairly long.

Did that get you there? I haven’t actually tried it myself...that description is just how I’d go about it.

This is what i got from my first attempt. Did't have so much time and good monitors, only my cheap earphones. It's a poor recording . . but doesn't matter, i think its very close. Thanks once again.
