| old school dre (the chronic, etc.) On songs like Nothing But a G Thang....what synths did he use in the higher register? I love those sounds...and those simple parts were great hooks. Are there any softsynths that can pull off those sounds well? Thanks a lot fellas |

EDIT: for this sound, i would slow down the rate in mod a and probably change the shape of mod a to something a little smoother like a sine...just played with it for a few minutes. Also if you turn on the other osc and try some other saws you can get it to bite a little harder too. This is a good preset. 2nd EDIT: Sounds just like "Murder was the Case." So not exactly a chronic sound. What synths do you own now? you can probably do it in the ones you have. | |

| Thanks again.. sorry if this question seems a little amateurish btw...I recently got into hip hop production.. I've played / recorded rock my whole life. I just copped a Triton Extreme for a good price..that could possibly have what I'm looking for. Besides that all I have is Trilogy which is really just for bass and the Softsynths that come with Sonar.  |

personally if you listen closely to those album you will notice that they werent even using true analog synths that would have created that sounds. sounds kind thin and digital and also like is wasnt sequenced in any type of monophonic sound (which it should) (my korg ms20 has a fat synth lead. but like I said, any current hardware or software synths will give you what you need

| The synths used for those sound are Mini Moog Juno 106 Black Synth players in the 70's used the Juno and mini moog alot some of the groups like Cameo and Parliment had great synth players in thier bands (Bernie Worrell was the best) anyone just getting into synths should listen to the song flashlight by parliment to hear how Bernie could freak a Mini Moog today I like using a Subtractor synth in Reason for that sound play with the pitch bend and set the portamento (glide) to about 4 or 5 |
