Another Cup of Coffee

Post by bazhill »

Has anyone done the synth sounds for Another Cup of Coffee by Mike and the Mechanics on the Stage 2. Can't seem to get it right.
Any help would be appreciated
Cheers

It's all pretty standard stuff. For the intro, layer a mellow brass pad with a FM-style bell sound and give the bell sound a fairly short decay. For the chorus, main pad is just a mellow string/brass pad with plenty of chorus and reverb. Layer it with a higher octave string pad and fade that in and out as necessary to give some dynamics, or alternatively you could manually open and close the filter on the main pad instead. There are also some lower string lines here and there; I imagine a suitable cello sample possibly layered with a string pad would work here.

I need another cup of coffee after un-crating my new Stage 2 SW 73 and staying up until 2:00AM last two nights! Image
