The Killers - Somebody Told me NS4

Post by Nolander »

Hi! I'm new in the forum. Any member can share some info to create a good program to this song? I know the lead tone comes from Microkorg (Phaserlead). I'm trying to sample it from de VST... Any help is appreciated. Thx.

Hi Nolander,

do you mean the sound to be heard at 1:20 in the official video?

Regards
Tim

Hi Nolander,

here we go:
It seems to be a heavily processed sawtooth-synth lead so I use all thre synth slots of the NS4 with various saw-based OSCs...
All of them then further tweaked with flanger or other effects, a little bit of drive and EQ and compression on the lead.
To make it consistent (and helpful for a keyboardist to "support" the shredding guitarists...) I split the keyboard and laid out a Hammond on the lower range, the lead on the upper range... (with scene layer II you can play an organ over the whole keyboard).

Hope you like it.

Cheers
Tim

Thanks so much for trying. The sound is quite far from the original, but thanks anyway. :thanks:
