I am trying to recreate a synth fall similar to the one at 3:25 https://youtu.be/sxkjvKBPQjo in the Kings "Switching to Glide" song.
I can recreate using a Multi Saw x 3 Waveform in Legato mode with max glide but this requires me to play 2 notes 2 octaves apart which is not possible while playing the other synth part.
Is there any way to recreate this (other than by creating a user sample) using the LFO so I can play a single note?
I have tried using a Multi Saw x 3 waveform with LFO Saw OSC PITCH set to 48 semitones and it is close, but I can't seem to get the sound to end before the LFO repeats or the LFO to start from the beginning of the LFO when I re-trigger?
I need to create another synth fall similar to the one at :30 https://youtu.be/XkSmLh2Hbi0 in the Cars "My Best Friends Girlfriend"
Thanks in advance for your help.

Could you use the tone wheel, or bend stick, programmed to 1 or 2 octave bends for that song?

The Env To Pitch function can be used to create the pitch drops you want for single or multiple notes. Env Amt is used to set the starting pitch. If it's a single sound you're looking for just for effect, I'd suggest coming up with the sound, adding reverb/delay (like in the Kinks song), and then sampling it so you get exactly the same sound every time by just hitting a key. Good luck to you.
