Hey Guys,
Im trying to figure out how Thomas Gold made this song.
- YouTube [ Fatboy Slim - Star 69 (Thomas Gold What The F…k Mix) ]
The main synth in that song is a synth that is being OVER used by a lot of progressive house producers right now, but im still interested in what synth it is…
Im guessing its a grand piano preset in the nexus vst or just a plain sample… But I have over 50 tracks in the last 5 months with all the same piano sound… and I cant find it anywhere… Im not trying to copy these guys, but i would like to use that sound and tweak it to my taste.
Also, if you notice, his synth does this echo effect before it restarts the loop. Im guessing its either ping pong delay, beat repeat, or simple delay, with an automation to kick in for a second…
Is his bassline, just a plain sinwave bassline? or is he putting in kick drums on his of beats??
Im using Ableton 8, sylenth and nexus.
Thanks guys !!

doesnt sound like its a piano but i see where your coming from.
i would start by setting up a mod envelope that closes the cuttoff freq nice and sharply
then play with the wave types - saw /pulse is where i would aim.

just sounds like a swamping of reverb moving to the full wet control

sounds like a pulse wave / triangle wave!
