Recording Notes
- The synth sound is likely a combination of saw and pulse waveforms, with moderate resonance and a fast attack. A chorus effect adds width and depth.
- The arpeggio is tightly synchronized and likely sequenced, emphasizing a rhythmic pulse with a subtle harmonic movement.
Recreation Tips
- Start with a Roland Juno-106 or a similar analog polysynth known for its string-like capabilities.
- Use saw and pulse waveforms, adjusting the pulse width for tonal variation.
- Apply a chorus effect to fatten the sound and create stereo width.
- Program a fast arpeggio sequence that complements the song's tempo and harmonic structure.
- Experiment with filter cutoff and resonance to achieve the desired brightness and resonant character.
- Slightly detune oscillators for a richer, more animated sound.
