I could really use some help creating this sequence

Hi all, I'm desperate here. I've been trying to figure out how to emulate this sequence below for a week now with no success. I've played around with minimoog, arp, and many effects but I just can't get my hands around this. I'm going to post a vocal example of the sound I'm looking for. Hopefully someone out there has ideas. If I don't have the right equipment I'm open to looking into what is needed. Please please help me.

Medication.

Welcome to VSE 8)

On a more serious note, try running a synth through a distortion of some kind. Overdrive the filter, tune the resonance, and distort it; try other filter types than LP - a couple of BP filters tuned differently can mimic vocal sounds, if that's part of what you're after.

Eheh well I came up with this. Sorry if it´s not what you were expecting

The eeeowww part is done with auto-glide. In this example it was pre-programmed into an MC-202 sequencer.

I've never seen that sequencer before. looking at it on youtube now. I assume that you cannot input other instrument's into it right? You have to use the keyboard on itself?

With the built-in kbd you can insert notes into the sequencer and also play the built-in synth in real-time although it´s a bit awkward. You can use an external kbd (1v/oct) for the same functions, but the internal processor will add a significant delay (latency) to the synth sounds, so it´s not very useful for live-playing. The SH-101 is a good alternative. Same sound, user-friendly sequencer, no latency. There´s a better description in the VSE Database.

I'm looking at getting a synth with a sequencer. Over these two would you then recommend the sh-101?

Nice track, what'd you use for the beat loop? I need to get some better drum samples I think

To OP, I think what you want is more of a filtered sound than the melody, your vocal demo had mostly filtering and practically no melody (not meant as an insult just a comment). Have you heard of the TB-303, maybe this is more the sound you're after, and you can do cool formant filtering on the MS-20 too which has a distinct vocal quality.

Thanks. I used Live to edit the loops. The usual. I think these two were from a Futere Music mag DVD. I saved the files. I can upload the .wavs if you want them.

Yeah, cheers that'd be cool if you could - I get FM myself but don't find all that much useful from the samples, that one's nice and chunky though 8)

No problem. The drumloops are from CFJ Audio: 1- "Drumloop", 2 - edit, 3 - edit, 4 - AltBeat D03, 5 - edit 6 - edit. Last three are loops from my 202.

The SH-101 is a better synth; the MC-202 has a better sequencer... It´d be best for you to start a thread at the Buyer´s Guide as there are lots of other options available. The Korg Electribes and MS2000 come to mind and are very popular around here

Cool, thanks.

Might be able to splice up some sample hits and use them in a track
