Anyone in the audience who remember Radiohead, their "Kid A" album
(yes, it was called an album back in those days)
back in the obscure year 2000 ... raise your hand if you do ... no?
But Pablo and Ricard, how about you?
Anyhow, just listened to the best track of that album;
"Everything In Its Right Place",
and got inspired to find out how to make dreamy Radiohead pianos!
(Some ambient noise added too ...) Recipe
Osc: 4 = squ, osc config = shp, mod env amt = 5.0, osc ctrl = 0 (makes a narrow square)
Filter: LP24, kb track 1, freq = 1.5 morph -> 4.0, res = 0, mod env amt = 2.5 (the mod env will open the filter)
Mod env: A-D-R = 1.0-4.0-3.0 (slow & dreamy)
Amp env: A-D-R = 2.0-sus-4.7 (more of the same)
Unison = 3 (you want it phat!)
Chorus = 1.0 (more phat)
Reverb: room, 3.0
Velocity: output 5.0 -> 10.0 (adds dynamics)
Oct shift: -1 (you want a dull dramatic sound)
Delay: wet/dry = 2.5, feedback = 1, ping pong = on, mst clk = on (I was running the Arturia Spark at 100 bpm as master for the demo)
