Hi all! Recently picked up an R3. I'm a newb with it, and to be honest with building patches to begin with. I'm trying to create a patch that will mimic the sweeping filter sort of intro on Moving in Stereo by The Cars (it plays throughout, really I'm running this through a looping pedal anyway so even if I can just catch it once and loop it, I'm good).

I've watched a bunch of tutorials but I'm sort of failing here. Does anyone have any advice, or an idea of a patch that exists somewhere that I can download?

Any help in general is appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi,

Here is my take on a mKXL. Both the mKXL and R3 use the same MMT sound engine. So it should give you a pretty good start to further tweak.
Start from an init patch.

Osc 1: saw
Mixer: Osc 1: 70, others:0
Filter1: Filter balance: 79 (+/- BPF), Cutoff: 37, Reso 127 (self oscillating)
LFO2: Sine, BPM sync off, Freq: 0.12Hz
Virtual patch: src: LFO2, dest: Filter1 Cutoff, Intensity:31

The combo of Osc1 and Filter1 sound like a dirty sine wave. The virtual patch modulates the filter cutoff frequency using LFO2. As Filter1 is almost bandpass with full resonance you get get sirene like sound.
Add a delay or reverb in the effect section to get a bit that spacy feeling.

Enjoy programming!

This is...SO cool. Thanks so much. I have so much to learn in understand how all of this works and how to go after the sounds I hear in my head....and what I effect I can expect various changes to have on the sounds I'm working on. I did have a feeling it would have to involve a virtual patch of some sort to modulate the sound. I still definitely need to research LFOs and how they work and what exactly it is their function is.

Anyway, this is perfectly awesome, thanks so much for the help.
