The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Hi all

Have had a great time wandering through the various voices available on here - some great stuff, and far more usable than the AN1X's original voices.

One thing I've not found, though, is a good orchestral crash voice - the sort of thing (for example) that the Pet Shop Boys use for the theme at the start (and then in the breaks) of "Always on my mind".  I've got a couple on a Roland module, but they don't match up.

Anyone created anything similar with the mighty AN1X? :)

That's pretty much rompler territory.  If what you have is a JV/XV, you 
might want to try older.  The U110/220 matches up well, imo.  Ridiculous 
cheap, these days, too.

Take care,

try some white noise and an ar envelope with a short attack and a long reverb 

but you will most proberly find it hard to creat a good copy as most crashes you need to ring modulate 2 noise sources white / red and the resultant wave would be put threough the ar envelope 

but most modules are sample based and therefor you wont get a sampled crash sound on the an1x as its virtual analog 

you have more chance of making snares and bass drums on the an1x also hi hats
