Resonant Pulse Lead starting settings

Back to the build

Apply these Analog settings for step 1 in Live 12 Suite. Osc1, Osc2 and Amp1 are On; both oscillators feed Filter 1, which remains Off until step 2. Filter 2, Amp2, Noise, Unison, Glide, LFO1 and LFO2 are Off. Add Saturator in step 3, then Phaser-Flanger and Echo in step 4.

Use Rect for both oscillator waveforms, with Pulse Width 25% and Level −6.0 dB. The oscillators share the same octave; Osc2’s displayed Detune −0.02 creates a small tuning offset. Analog’s global Volume and Amp1 Level are both −6.0 dB.

Set the Amp1 envelope to EXP with Legato On, Free Off and Loop Off. Attack is 8 ms, Decay 80 ms, Sustain 1.00, Sustain Time inf s and Release 80 ms. Both attack and envelope velocity amounts are zero. Set Voices Mono and Priority Last. For mod-wheel vibrato, enable Vib with Amount 20%, Rate 5.1 Hz and Amt < MW 100%.

Analog parameters

Inactive controls are included for completeness; their On/Off switches determine whether those sections affect the sound.
