STRINGS
You can get some nice ensemble/string sounds in with the Superwave-ENS. The biggest difficulty is doing those sounds in mono. Consider putting the Mono in poly mode while you’re making those sounds.
Pseudo Karplus Strong synthesis with the FM engine that has feedback. Though that sounds closer to real strings, rather than analogue strings... I’ll have a fiddle when I get home to my gear.
//MnM STRING-MACHINE-LIKE PATCH://
A somewhat DIGITAL version of the ARP classic string machines like the solina or the omni II of course not at exact replica
VERY IMPORTANT : FIRST turn OFF the keyboard tracking of both filters.
KIT > ASSIGN > KEY > HPF and LPF has to be in OFF.
Then set as follows:
SYNTH > SUPERWAVE ENSEMBLE MACHINE
PITCH 1 = -12 PITCH 2 = +12 PITCH 3 = OFF or add a fifth (+7)...i like it with a fifth WAVE = 127 (SQUARE) PW = 63 CHRL = 63 or more CHRW = 127 TUNE = 0
AMP
A = 44 or more H = 0 D = 127 R = 63 or more DIST = 0 VOL = 0 PAN = 0 PORT = 0...or try it
FILTER
BASE = 1 WIDTH = 82 HPQ = 21 LPQ = 15 A = 49 D = 89 BOFS = 0 HOFS = 17
FX
EQF = 42 EQG = -9 SRR = 0 DTIM = 16 or what you want...in 16 sounds more like a spring reverb than delay DSND = 41 DFB = 50 DBSS = 21 DWID = 76
LFO 1
PAGE = SYNT DEST = PW TRIG = FREE WAVE = TRI MULT = 1x SPEED = 8 INTL = 0 DEPTH = 36
LFO 2
PAGE = FILT DEST = WDTH TRIG = FREE WAVE = TRI MULT = 1x SPEED = 57 INTL = 0 DEPTH = 2 or 3
LFO 3
PAGE = SYN DEST = TUN TRIG = FREE WAVE = TRI MULT = 32x SPEED = 44 INTL = 0 DEPTH = 10
Try it in multi mode from trigger octave 4 and up the low notes sounds closer to the ARP machines, if you can get something “analog” out of the mono.
