Recording Notes

  • The synth pad was likely created using the Yamaha SY99's advanced FM synthesis capabilities, layering multiple oscillators and waveforms to create a complex and evolving sound.
  • The wide stereo image was achieved through stereo chorus and panning effects.
  • The soft, enveloping texture comes from heavy use of reverb and delay, creating a sense of space and depth.

Recreation Tips

  • Start with a basic sawtooth or square wave and add subtle FM modulation to create movement and complexity.
  • Use a chorus effect to widen the stereo image and add a sense of lushness.
  • Apply a long, diffused reverb to create a sense of space and depth.
  • Experiment with LFOs to modulate parameters like filter cutoff, volume, and panning to create evolving textures.
