Intro I mean. I've got demos of almost all the synths on the web now :) but I'd prefer a preset for FM7. Can anybody help me?
Thank you!

Oberheim if I remember right.

Superwave has a "Jump" preset if I remember correctly. Not perfect but could be a good starting point to layer ontop of.

yes, the hardware synth is oberheim, but is there a VSTi oberheim or similar?

Yep-it is. Preset A11 on an OB-8.

A spectral heretic...

a quick google reveals Oberheim OB-Xa, might not be so easy to get that sound out of the FM7

God, I have a plug that has the perfect 'Jump' patch but I don't recall what one it is. It's even called 'Jump'. I even think it's freeware.

Ah...but the important question is WHY?

Are you not aware of the evil that will befall you for playing "Jump"?

This is illegal in many countries, and vigilantes will hunt you down if you do this!

Play "Jump", go to jail......if you do the crime, you gotta do the time....

spectrum :help: :cry: :P :roll:

You can get damned close with Pentagon 1.

I remember at the time I was into Depeche Mode and then Van Halen comes out with 'Jump' and all these idiots at my school were saying 'wow, he's using a synthesiser!' It was rediculous. But still, if you're into that sort of thing...

And I know, baby, just how you feel.

I once accidentally made the Jump sound perfectly using SimSynth 2.7. Once I realized what I'd done, I ran away screaming and pee'd on my cat.

Sonik Synth 2 Free has a patch called "Jump". It doesn't sound exactly the same, but you can probably get close with some tweaking. 8)

THank you guys!
I need this sound badly, cause I've just seen the Jump video, and I feel like I can't live without it :) may be it will help my creativity :D

I had to play that song for years on stage. It quickly displaced Freebird as the song you most hated hearing someone shout from the audience. In all that time I never had and Oberheim.

You just need saw waves, multiple osc's, open 12db filters, (any trance VSTi) and ear plugs. :?

All I need to be happy is one more VSTi.
