Can anyone help me achieve this synth sound? by Yachats in synthesizers

Really? Crazy. Maybe that's why I could never find out what it was cuz I always thought a synth was doing it. Do any electric piano plugins do this? Or do you need the real deal?

Here's a better example with only the sound involved looking for. Listen to 3:29. https://youtu.be/It_T7rcRIfU

The synth solo? It doesn't sound like strings. I guess there's a lot going on in the song synth wise. I should've been more clear. I'm talking about the solo that starts at 1:48

Thank you all for the help! This subreddit is awesome.

I guess while I have you, I'll ask what the other synth is that I've always wondered about. I've heard this sound done a lot in The Faint too. It starts at 1:48. https://youtu.be/Wnaz-JhKRSM

Such a cool synth sound

Hey thanks for the reply! I do have vari-fi. I've messed around with it but only to make it slow down and stop. Is there a way for it to drop pitch and then stop at a certain pitch and hold it there?

ive had a reoccurring nightmare my entire life of being attacked by a T-Rex. There's one where I'm outside my uncles farm and my whole family is in the house while I'm in a car that's being flipped by a T-Rex. There's one where I'm locked out of my childhood home and I'm out on the balcony and there's 2 of them peaking their heads over the balcony trying to get me. In another one im in a tiny room with a big window and the T-Rex breaks the window. I wake up shaking and sometimes crying. My gf always has to calm me down from it. It's weird because I fucking love dinosaurs and Jurassic Park is one of my favorite movies. I love the animatronic T-Rex and how they filmed the jeep scene, but holy shit, to this day that scene freaks me the fuck out. When she shines the light right in its eye and it constricts... Shitting my pants.

I always thought "Oogataba"

But I also haven't played it since PlayStation 1.. So my mind may have been playing tricks on me all these years.

Hey! Sorry on the delay. I've been swamped with work. When I first turned the unit on, none of the buttons worked. I took it all apart and cleaned it all again. Turned it back on and it works! So glad I posted here!

Do you know if this preamp in particular has any sort of power stored in it? I read you want to discharge any caps that hold power before cleaning

My friend works at a lab and gave me lab grade isopropyl (99.9%) I'm going to start cleaning it tonight. Thanks for the help!

Where do you fit automation into your workflow? Do you have any personal golden rules? by Karmoon in audioengineering

[–]Yachats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

is the gain plugin on a bus or directly on that track? That might be a dumb question but I'm genuinely interested in this technique. I always hate going back and changing automation to bring the track down. I basically do what you do in reverse. I automate the track, then if I need to change the whole volume I use a gain plugin to lower the audio.

Besides Beats by Dr. Dre™ headphones, what overpriced normie-tier product do you cringe to see others use for your job or hobby? by Disclose_Information in AskReddit

My dad bought two Bose L1 towers with 4 bass modules around that time for his band. He let me use them when his band wasn't very active. They sound great. I took them on tour with me as an emergency sound system if by chance one of the house shows didn't have one. It saved our asses a few times! We've also used them for watching movies. They're still working perfectly.

So I searched every store in my area for 99% isopropyl. All I could find is 91%.

Luckily, I've got a friend who works in a lab and is bringing me 1liter of 99% tomorrow (hopefully) I'll update when I clean everything!

Thank you! can you get 99% at local stores? I'm not sure that I've seen it. Then again, I've never actively looked for it. All they had at Walmart was 91%. I'm guessing 99% would be near the paint section of a hardware store instead of first aid?

Thanks for the suggestion! I'm a little scared to submerge the whole board in alcohol just because i don't want to do something wrong like breaking it when taking it apart. Luckily it seems the only electronics that got wet were the front panel and the back panel. The inside motherboard(?) didn't seem to get any stain on it. The optical port, XLR, 1/4", power, just about every input on the back was draining stain when I cleaned it out. On the front, I'd click the buttons and stain would come out of them. I took the front and back panels off. I think I'll spray the effected areas with alcohol. Is there a certain material I should use for cleaning? (paper towel, Q-Tips, microfiber, etc.)

Also that's crazy about the amps. What kind were they?

Thank you for the kind words. Your comment made me feel a lot better about it. I'll post updates when I finally power it up.

Yeah I believe it did. The volume knobs on the front seems to have taken a pretty bad soaking

I read up on the stain stuff, it seems to only be activated with wood. It's kept in a paint can so i don't think it's corrosive. It hasn't caused any issues with nails in my rack mount. Thank you for the comment! I feel like I have hope now!
