Help..... Fellow sound designers
I need to know which patch is close or how to get close myself to this high bell like sound (dooooo.do.do.do.............do.do.do) from U2 http://www.thegirlnextdoor.de/newyearsday.mp3
Cheers lads...... :wink: |
Its an EQd piano with loads of (metal plate?) reverb, compressed post EQ I think. Original synth might even be a U20 - no idea what U2 used back then.
Start with the hi piano patch on the TI - pile on the reverb, fiddle with colour, EQ it - that piano might be a bit sharp tho, and the reverb on the TI probably wont quite match the required color - resonance on 100% key follow will help a bit. |
as for piano...I think U2 used a Yamaha CP70/80 back then....
..with tons of FXs... |

Not with a virus that's for sure. VAs don't do acoustic pianos all that well. ;) BTW, U2 is my fav band in the world. Edge is my idol. |
Check out patch 1 in my soundset, it's an acoustic piano emulation I did. Sounds pretty good IMO, though I'd love to know what others think of it.

Dunno why I never thought of using it before as a U20/M1 style piano subsititute... |

Fast Eddie say no more :lol: Fucking amazing |
Here's some examples of the stuff I do:
http://tarekith.com/t_audio.htm I do downtempo, breaks, trance, house, classical, you name it. Restricting yourself to just one genre is so boring. |

Tarekith, I listened to a load of you tracks a while back - some really good music there. :)
BTW - is the Exile set zip ok - downloaded it a while back - was corrupt - meant to tell you ages ago. |

I even rezipped and uploaded a new one, try that and let me know if it still won't unzip. Shame, best thing I've ever done musically.... |

U2 is absolutely one of mine....definitely more into rock/pop than trance/techno/dance... And here I am with a Virus...! :roll: |
I think the reason I admire the Edge so much is that he has a strong synthesis and electronic influence. He increases the tones from his guitars ten-fold compared to others. You heard that mother fucking humungous phaser effect he uses on Zoo Station when playing live? woah. And he's not one of those egotistical nonces that have to play 748-notes-per-second guitar solos just because he can. ;)
The whole band as a whole, to me, are just outstanding, though. Anyway, TGND, the secret with the piano from New Years Day is distortion. Pianos sound fucking lovely distorted. EQ, compress, and reverb to taste. Distortion naturally compresses stuff anyway. Also play the notes two at a time, one one octave lower than the other. (If you have a good ROMpler piano available, simply use two oscillators, one being -12 semitones lower than the other). Don't fine-detune them at all, though, otherwise they'll sound like a crappy honky-tonk. Also, break with tradition and apply reverb before compressing. Pumps it up like a giant mammoth mutha. |

The virus ti reverb + analog mode filter saturation seems to suit this kind of piano abuse quite well + if you're crafty and use the input follower, and mod off the resulting filter envelope - you can use the TI as quite a good transient shaper/compressor in static input mode. I must get around to fully plumbing out the TIs outputs into the patch bay so I can loop it all back through again an apply the transient shaping post-fx - sadly hard to do this decently in one pass on the TI as its doesnt have the C internal aux1/2 busses - Grrrr!!! Marc/TK - one for you - can we have the aux busses back please :) |
