Kavinsky - Nightcall (BO Drive)

Post by Diego Unchained »

Hello I've tried to begin a prog for this very cool song :

You tube : [youtube][/youtube]


And here an mp3 for my prog at this time : If someone could improve it that would be very cool, cause I think I'm too far from original sound !

Hi Fab, here is a few ideas : try to lower the (24 db/oct) filter, try add a little resonnance, try unison 1-3, flatten the amp enveloppe (higher sustain I guess), then maybe chorus ?

I dont know if you intend to play it with your band ...
My comment above is for the arpegs.
That leaves the bass, with it's own sound to programm.
You'll have to let some tracks to your band mates ;)
That leaves the synth "chords" over the arpges later in the song.
Maybe a guitar can take the arpegs, a bass can take the bass, and you can take the "chords" ;)

I like the sounds in this tune.

Okay Frantz these are very good ideas to improve this sound, could you try too if you have some time?

For playing it with the band I completely agree with you, other mates could play some sounds too, especially arpegg. Perhaps we'll try it soon!

Merci :thumbup:

Hello Fab,

Here is something I did :

Maybe be we need more oscillators, maybe we should use samples, I can't do closer with the synth.
