How to Build the Lead Sync Synth Sound from Tame Impala's "Is It True" on the Montage M

Музыка

In this video I deconstruct the classic lead synth sound used in the chorus of "Is It True" by Tame Impala, and demonstrate how to recreate it on the AN-X engine in the Montage M. That said, you can use this same technique to reconstruct this sound on any analog or virtual analog synth that has square waves and oscillator sync.

    I’ve known all about oscillator sync for a long time. I’ve played with it. But actually seeing how to build a sync sound that was used in an actual track was helpful. Thanks!

    Thanks for the tutorial, I'm fairly new to synthesizers, but was able to re-create this on my cobalt8.

    Also I thought I heard this sound before it seemed familiar. It's very similar to the sound in the theme song for the movie Fletch with Chevy Chase.

    Love your channel and top quality content. I'm a Scott also from a never heard of 80's band in Boulder CO called "the Forks". It might be time for a haircut dude, your a good looking dude. I had a mullet back in the day -- my friends hated it. Girlfriend liked it. I don't know how you run so many channels, but I imagine you never get bored! Cheers!

    Nice informative demo. I'm hearing some weird clipping and distortion that doesn't sound related to the sound patch in this video, and the FM demo posted before this one that i haven't heard before in your older videos. May want to double check the signal path?

    You know what....I just went back to listen, and I'm definitely hearing it as well. I definitely did not hear it when I was playing it. The only thing common to both of those is that I was using OBS to capture and record both the Montage screen and its audio, whereas I normally use Audacity. I suspect that's where it's coming from. I'll have to figure out a different audio capture method.

    Hi Scott saw your ad for this on keyboard fb page. Love all these montage vids you are making. I use software host to map one finger chords to play on my boards, question is, is there a way to play one finger chords using montage m without mapping with software, cheers

    Hello Scott! In an older video, you showed on Montage how to make a Super Saw sound from 8 Elements. I have a question? Is it possible to do the same by detuning the 8 Element Saw patterns with the Super Knob? This would be interesting because then we would achieve the same thing as Roland's traditional Super Saw setup. There, the starting point is a simple Saw Wave, which is detuned with the addition of Detune, and the Super Saw is created from this. A friend of mine tried it and it worked, but I don't know how.

    Scott, your so talented. Could the FM synth do something close??

    It depends. On the Montage or MODX (or maybe the Opsix) where you can modify the spectral skirt of the waveforms...perhaps. You can approximate a square wave in FM and even get it to simulate sync by modifying it with another operator - but it doesn't have the brash sound that you get from a true square wave from an analog oscillator (or modelled analog oscillator). I tried...and it was similar, but definitely nowhere close.

    Tame Impala are amazing! I guess this sound is possible to make on the GAIA2?

    Good question...I gave it a try. You can connect the motional pad (in one shot mode) to OSC 3 pitch (when OSC sync is turned on) and it works, but it will take some time to get it tuned to the right speed. I didn't try to connect key velocity to it, so not sure if that could be duplicated or not.

    Great job. I could be wrong but the sound seems to have a bit more attack on Tame Impala.

    Scott, you know I luv ya, man, but today it’s gonna be that tough luv…. Keep your “on-air talent” (that’s you), because he’s very good, and keep your editor. But fire your set designer IMMEDIATELY. I need you to go for the cool set every time you make a vid. At a very minimum, I want you to take the covers off ALL your synths for every vid. [Synths look cool. Let us see them all.] Also, I want you to get some mood lights, perhaps a couple of diffuse box lights, but they have to have colors… Maybe put a green light on one side of your set, and a red on the other, or purple or orange; you decide. [Old school Star Trek.] Look, Scott, you have great hair: so get an overhead “hair or head spotlight”. If you go with a floor level torso and head “outline backlight” instead, you’ll have to get a chair with a short back. But do put a glow or an outline on your hair somehow. Later, you could consider small color spotlights on certain background synths, just for fun, and maybe a couple of small diffuse spotlights or light patterns shining on your walls, for filler and interest. [I wouldn’t change anything about your actual show, which I find excellent, but I’m hoping you’ll take your set to the next level, so that your set makes you look as good as you are. Cheers.]
