Synth Gurus help! The synths from Cappella (90s' dance music)

[audio_dude]

Hi,

I have a few preset requests for the synth gurus around

Guys, could you help me in recreating the following synths from Cappella (90s dance music), because I think they sound cool! Thank you!

1) Cappella's Move On Baby's main synth
(starting at 0'17, here: )

2) Cappella's U&Me's synth
(the sound is pretty loud in this vid! lower your volume)
(starting at 0'21, here: )

3) Cappella's U Got 2 Let The Music's synth
(the sound is pretty loud in this vid! lower your volume)
(starting at the very beginning of the song, here: )

And if you could give me the chords for these songs, it would be the icing on the cake, for sure!!!!!!!!!

Thank you very much for your help, tips & hints!!!!
(used software, type of oscillators, chords, MIDI arps, etc...)

I possess a great hunger, and only early 90s euro dance sensibilities can sate it, and WOW. These videos are GOLD.

1) The synth from Move On Baby, I can't figure that one. Because theres two parts. Listen in the upper register, and you hear the lead mirrored an octave higher than the main, loud synth. It's patch sounds like possibly a sampler, as it's got that breathy texture. Either that, or it's an FM preset, but it would not be simple to synthesize.

The main lead layered below sounds sorta like a supersaw, though not quite... I'm not sure what to make of it. I doubt it's complex, but for now I just can't make it out.

Theres no chords happening.

2) This synth is pretty simple; It's a supersaw.
You probably want 3 oscillators, saws. They'll be running through a lowpass filter, which will roll off only the top frequencies. Two of the three saws you want to detune heavily, by about 28 cents, one up, and one down. The third you probably want to keep in tune.

Conversely, you could try using one saw and the unison feature. Or you might consider using two saws, with the second one dropped by an octave, and lower in volume, to provide some thickness in the low end.

There's no chords happening, but it's drenched in reverb.

3) Supersaw. 2 or 3 saws, detuned, but a little less than before, maybe 15 cents.

No chords happening here.

4) if you're interested in finding out all the notes for these songs, I suggest pulling them into your DAW, matching tempo to it, and figure it out measure by measure. It sounds slow going, but it's not that bad. I do it a LOT, and I've gotten quite fast at figuring out the precise patterns and notes used on songs or sounds that I examine. And as a big bonus, it helps me get faster at working the midi piano roll when I'm working on my own tracks.

5) Software used: Nothing special or important, doesn't matter at all. All modern software can replicate this stuff faithfully and highly accurately..... once you figure out the patch or sound design.

Hi MOK19,

thank you: I'll try to recreate some sounds, according to your help!

If there are some preset-makers around, feel free to share your presets if you succeed in recreating these sounds. Thanks!

Thanks again, MOK19!
