Wah-like lead tone with a bit of resonance. Nice for single note transitions or tremolo chords.
Add some upper-range excitement to your arrangement with this bright, blippy tone. Sync the clock to MIDI for time-synced delay.
Simple lead tone with a nice resonant boost on the filter. Use the bender set to control DCO for pitch bending.
Medium attack swooshes in the filter, then we cut off one oscillator quickly while letting the other linger on.
Slowly sweeping volume and filter makes for nice filler without being too dramatic. Add chorus for some blending and fattening.
Clean and clear electronic lead somewhere between a harp and electric piano.
Starts mellow and mysterious gradually opening up almost to static. Employs a sharp release for dramatic effect.
Almost a wah-like bass. Added resonance makes it talk.
Piercing and a little distorted with a perfect 5th. Nice for bass lines to punch through the mix.
Filter and volume sweep together plus fat Roland chorus.
Randomly changing pitch creates a robotic sound effect. Employs a long release making the effect appear to live on forever. The sample is a single key press.
Fuzz and whistle split an octave apart—great for parallel octaves or contrary motion.
Nice and round in the bass, or light and spacious in the treble. Sustain notes for widening effect.
Gentle and melodic. This simple patch shows off the microkorg’s analog modeling.
Huge, bright, attention-grabbing chords.
Staccato chords. Try adding tempo-synced delay to liven it up.
From the synthlib podcast, this is the intro tone. A dark tone moving bright. Nice for sequences or bass.
Ring modulated distortion make this lead tone grab your attention. Mix with a heavy arrangement for stark contrast.
Warm and fuzzy like an old string machine.
