Members Geert Hurenkamp Posted July 7, 2004 Members Share Posted July 7, 2004 Has anyone got an idea how to obtain the typical 1999/Sussudio synth sound from an average ROMpler? I know the 1999 sound was some sort of Oberheim sound, but the Oberheim brass sounds in my ROMplers (Yamaha S30, Roland RS-9) don't nail the sound, so perhaps some tweaking tips could help. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dan88z Posted July 7, 2004 Members Share Posted July 7, 2004 It's more of a fat sawtooth sort of sound. Try replacing the wave form in the sound on the rompler with a saw wave, and open up the filter some. You might need to adjust the envelope a bit too so it doesn't have a brassy attack, more of a direct attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Yoozer Posted July 8, 2004 Members Share Posted July 8, 2004 Yank an Aural Exciter over it, so the highs stand out more. I assume that most of the 80's stuff didn't care about sounddesign per se - just find a good preset and go with it. 4 'elements' - 2 saw '16, 2 saw '8, with +/- 1 or 2 fine-tune should do the trick.

Members analogaddict Posted July 8, 2004 Members Share Posted July 8, 2004 I play "1999" now and then. For this, I made a split consisting of two sawtooth patches on my Nord Lead 3, one with the filter fully open and one with a more mellow sound. The "1999" sound is two saw brass parts with the brighter sounding one played when there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
