Recording Notes

  • The synth pads likely involve layering multiple oscillators with detuning to create a lush, wide sound.
  • Chorus or ensemble effects are used to thicken the sound and add movement.
  • Reverb or delay is added to create a sense of space and depth.

Recreation Tips

  • Start with a sawtooth or square wave on a synth like the Juno-106.
  • Detune the oscillators slightly to create a chorus effect.
  • Add a chorus or ensemble effect plugin to further thicken the sound.
  • Use a reverb or delay plugin to add space and depth.
  • Experiment with EQ to shape the tone and remove any unwanted frequencies.
