That's ok. So, now we're cooking.

i do tend to start of with 1 sound at a time from scratch then shape the sound and use a lot of detuning too to get the noises im after.
but its when im creating new sounds to use in the song with it, that i find it difficult to match.

i make alot of idmish stuff and electro, so i need those melancholy sounds..

The rule number one while setting up the oscillators is that keep at least one main oscillator non-detuned. That way you keep the pitch right and avoid tuning problems. Also take easy with chorus and pitch LFO's/envelopes.
