Sizzle Strings on Oct 26, 2015 ESQ-1

Ring modulation adds some sizzle to these synth strings. Play harder for brighter tone.

Vowel on Oct 24, 2015 Juno 6/60

Trying to push the limits of the Juno 6 with a choir patch. This might work with lots of reverb.

Download$ on Oct 23, 2015 ESQ-1

A slightly fuzzy lo-fi-ish lead with a quick delay. Don’t know why I called it Download$.

Categories: lead, bright, delay

Communicator on Oct 22, 2015 microKORG

Tuned percussive tone useful for secondary lines in an arrangement. The arpeggiator is used to as an extension of the delay.

Categories: percussion, rhythmic, arp, bright

Synthy Strings on Oct 21, 2015 Juno 6/60

Wonderfully unrealistic string sound with LFO controlled pulse width modulation and envelope controlled filter with resonance. Use it anywhere strings could work, but you want something un-natural.

Soft String Bass on Oct 20, 2015 ESQ-1

My take on an upright string bass played softly.

Moonchild on Oct 19, 2015 microKORG

Spacey drawn-out notes with multiple LFOs controlling the filter for an unstable tone.

Categories: pad, ambient

Piano-like on Oct 17, 2015 Juno 6/60

If you need a piano sound and all you have is a Juno 6, this might work. Not exactly a piano, but plays like one.

Slightly squawky lead made of synced saw waves

Mellow Glue on Oct 15, 2015 Juno 6/60

These low-key chords will glue a sparse mix together.

Echo Chords on Oct 14, 2015 microKORG

While making this patch, it reminded me of the beginning chords from Animal by Miike Snow. But after listening to the original, it doesn’t sound much like it. Still, it could be useful as prominent rhythmic chords.

Categories: delay, chord

SLOWOW on Oct 13, 2015 ESQ-1

A slow “wow” sound. The demo sound shows off chords, but this would work nice as a single note used to accent the beginning of a musical phrase in an arrangement.
