Pads & Chords · Session 03

Vintage Brass

7 min · Polyphonic mode · Patch cable required

Recreating a classic brass ensemble, where almost everything happens in the filter envelope.

The organic feel comes from stacking small imperfections: slightly detuned oscillators, white noise modulating the filter to mimic breath, keyboard tracking, and a velocity patch cable that makes the filter respond to how hard you play. Ends with chorus for stereo width and a touch of pitch drift for the vintage wobble.

Tip: Fine-tune the velocity output wheel on the back panel before adjusting anything else — it changes how the whole patch responds.
