Stakka

Stakka

2015-10-13 by Ned Collette

Hi everyone, long time user, long time reader, first time poster...

Probably an ignorant question, but I was going through the factory presets today and found no. 57 'Stakka' – great sound, but where is the basis of it coming from? If you take out both VCOs the basic sound is still pretty much all there. As I'm finally properly starting to get into how this synth works, I'm keen to work out how to strip sounds back to see what makes 'em tick...

Any help much appreciated.

Ps. For anyone interested some fairly heavy AN1x use on these tracks:

I can't remember the specific sound. However my 1st guess is that maybe the voice is using 2 Scenes, but you only disabled the oscillators for the 1st Scene.

(Or maybe a lot of its sound comes from VCF self-oscillation, but I'm not sure if that works in the AN1x without some osc sound input.)

Hello !

According to the user's manual vol.2 this patch is based on "2 voices stacked with a major third". That's all i've found in my archive files...

I think that this manual is available on the AN1x group website as a .pdf file. If you have the AN1x edit software you can have a look at all the parameters of any patch.

On my own AN1x i've erased "Stakka" to put something else, so i can't do that...

Cheers.

J.F.

Ah, the 2nd scene! Yes of course, didn't think. That's the one.
Many thanks!
