Fat pad
 

Hi there!

Is there anyone here that can tell me if it's possible to make a fat superwave pad like the one roland jp-80x0 ca create. I have a Virus TI desktop. And if it's possible how do you create one from scratch?

Bonkers :wink:

On my Virus b, I use PWM with a fairly fast LFO rate modulating the PW. The trick is to detune the oscillators and turn on Unison with a wide spread to make it sound really full. Then just adjust the envelopes to your liking. Sorry if this is too vague. There's a great Virus pad tutorial at www.trance.nu.

the reason the called it superSAW is because it contains saw waves not pulse waves :P

im not a virus TI owner but in thory i would say:
open 1 Hypersaw oscilator and start detuning till you like it.
not enough? add another hypersaw oscilator,need more meat? use the sub osc.
still missing some "Dutch"ness ? use some unison voices. :D
its that simple.

[D-tune]

I'll tell ye something for nothing, though, it's a shame you can't modulate the PWM of the HyperSquare? sub oscillators.

Why not go the whole hog and let the wavetables and all other waves be Hyper-ified, too?

Is it possible that the Hypersaw is just a Wavetable with two indexes in a 3d way? One dimension is Density and the other is Detune. That can explain how it only uses one standard voice.

that make perfect sense but then again,
on the jp80*0 and the Vsynth the supersaw waveform "eat" as much polyphony as a standart "thin" waveform like sine,square,triangle etc...
maybe we should ask forward this question to the virus chat,im sure someone there can ask one of the software developers.

ATB uses D-tune! I want that thingy, no need for a TI anymore!

They can be - it's called Unison ;)

The original question never had the word SAW in it.

i alowed myself to translate superWave in to superSAW. :)
