Recording Notes
- The synth pad was likely created using the Roland Juno-106's built-in chorus effect to create a lush, wide sound.
- Slight detuning or ensemble effects may have been used to thicken the sound further.
- The original recording may have used a mixing console for EQ and level adjustments.
Recreation Tips
- Start with a basic sawtooth or pulse wave on a Roland Juno-106 or a similar synthesizer.
- Apply a chorus effect to thicken the sound and create a sense of spaciousness.
- Slightly detune one of the oscillators to create a subtle beating effect.
- Use a low-pass filter to mellow the sound and remove any harsh high frequencies.
- Adjust the filter envelope to add some movement and dynamics to the sound.
