Identifying Madonna's "Live to tell" Synth patch

Post by Ivan Jochner »

Hi guys,
Having been recreating Madonna's Live to tell Synth patch ( 5 sec to 8 sec at the intro).
Some multitracks identified it like " Shamisen" patch but to my ears it sounds more like mix of flute and marimba ?

I know that for that song were used Yamaha Dx7 and Fairlight sampler.(I found similar sound on my Integra 7 but it was sold recently. )

What your ideas would be for that particular patch?

Have dug out original rough multitrack of this song without mixing and mastering , interesting to know that that patch just called "Synth" i have tried to EQ a bit high freq. to get proper understanding what it sounds like.

Pretty cool site. What do they charge for a multitrack download?

Thanks for the info-

I have been using that site for years! I thought this site would actually allow download of all of the individual audio tracks. Karaoke version is great, but you still just get a stereo file. You can edit it and download again, though.
