That's what I have so far....

maybe its my amp, but it still feels a bit dull. more cutoff?

although, I am liking my patch ^^ just not as good as yours.

also, what are the effects doing? does ensemble work the same way a chorus pedal would? And what is the the mod delay delaying?

Very good!

it is a nice and usable string pad. It will have a slot in my pad library.

Should I tell you something about headphones? :D
But seriously, you can add a little more dynamics to the pad using the second filter in combination with an LFO to get little variations on harmonics. Also a subosc or multisin will widen the spectrum a little.

In my case, I try to use all osc, filters and other effects to create a pad. If there were more voices available I would use them too. This will not mean I want to create a massive multi-mega-overfreighted sound. It is rather the goal to have small details added to a good base, like the spice you use for a menu: it could have several but the amount and combination of them are the secret. Of course it depends on everyones taste.

About the effects I will tell you another day, its late here now!
Maybe the better idea is, you use a basic patch and step thru the different effects to hear what they do, like tasting each spice separatedly. This will give you the audible impression of each one, which maybe will help more than telling you in hundreds of words about them.

What are suboscs/multisins? Waveshapers?

I've read the manual 4 times, still haven't got it all down :D

So Axxim, think I should keep working, or will you upload yours? Mine definetly has more of a pronounced violin timbre with a sub saw.

Radias / R3 sounds

Post by colinf »

I have the program for the Radias which was sent to me by the person who programmed the Radias Solo, its an incredible sound program.
After loading the Euro V2 sounds into the banks you can create a range of really nice sounds.
if you wish I can send the Radias Solo program to you.

Hi,

if you meant me, I don't have a Radias. If someone wants this sound for the R3, a screen copy of the Radias editor with the Settings for that sound could be helpfull. If you send it to me I can try to "copy" it
