Working on new DIVA bank (retro/vintage type sounds). Any requests?

I've been working on a new soundset for DIVA, called "Reminiscence", which is inspired by classic synth sounds from late 1970s electronica/classic rock up to early underground rave/techno. I'm taking requests now, so if you guys out there have certain sounds you are looking for, let me know and I'll include them, provided they stick to the general oldschool theme.

I also like how BIGTONE added the quality setting used to save the preset in the info. It helps us to know what mode it was tweaked for. I'm sure you have tons of 70's space synth stuff planned (JMJ, Tangerine Dream, Vangelis). Those would get my votes.

Easy answer, Bryan. Just port your Ultra Analog preset libraries, Retro and Modern to DIVA. Oh yeah, and price them attractively as you did those. Oh yeah, and give us an early-bird special on top of that. That should do it.
One more thing (OT ... but still ...) when you're done, how about some Harmor presets?

Woah cool! Looks like Reminiscence is gonna be a solid hit
. I'm making a list as I read these requests. ETA for release is the first week of February (100+ patches), so there's definitely time available for more suggestions.
@dmbaer: Straight-up copying off the UA banks would be cheating lol. That said, there's definitely no harm in getting inspiration from those and making something of a similar vibe (and probably better, too, as the UA banks are a few years old and I constantly strive to get better at this stuff). Intro deal? Guaranteed for sure, bro
As for Harmor, I love that synth and definitely would like to do that.
@ford442: Those sounds will definitely work as they can also be used in a more "un-techno" context
. I think it'd be awesome if Urs could include a modeled TB-303 filter and overdrive effect in a future update. He's already got the Alpha Juno synth in there...so why not add that and SH-101 components, too? Classic retro techno heaven
.

Some Richard Barbieri-style Prophet sounds won't go amiss.
+1 on the Prince Oberheim patches too!

Some 80's Depeche Mode sounds - might be a little later than you're thinking, but there are some great Moog (I believe) bass sounds on Music For The Masses, namely on Behind the Wheel, Nothing, The Things You Said. Black Celebration is full of good stuff too.
And how about some New Order sounds? Moog Source bass from Blue Monday, lead synth from Bizarre Love Triangle, bass from This Time of Night, strings from Perfect Kiss, etc.

Some albums where there are a boatload of cool sounds:
Yes - "Close to the Edge" and "Relayer"
Jan Hammer with Mahavishnu - "Birds of Fire"
George Duke with "George Duke and Feel" which has finally been released as a CD. Good bass lines/sounds in a song on there called "Funny Funk"
Chick with RTF - "Where have I known you before"
These all conjure up strong pleasant memories for me.

+1 for the Oberheim strings.
I never had an OB, but i was overusing a sample on Emu III: called XP Orkestra.
I belive it was a Matrix 12 string.
It was detuned but not that much like todays
supersaw strings. It was warm, thick, wide with a lot of low end.
It would be nice to have it again - even in Zebra!
