Don't pretend you can decide what anyone on the internet can, or can't do. You cannot make people act the way you want them to act.

There is not an once of "blame" in my posts. Just my own observations.

Your remarks in this thread are condescending. The production forum, as well as sound design are to ask regarding these things.
So to rephrase Luftrum's remark, don't be surprised over someone asking for a certain preset or emulation. Some of us would rather get down to playing music, than twiddling knobs.

Take your own advice.

I made a similar patch in Thor, but it's on the iPad version and I haven't had a chance to transfer it to a computer yet. As far as I can remember it's a sawtooth wave with the filter half closed and quite a high resonance. You need to have the filter following the keyboard or it only works on the area you were listening to when you set the cut-off.

If you want to make it sound harsher you can add a second oscillator, set it to sync and alter the tuning of it a little. A key thing about the sound is the delay though, but you should be able to get that happening in Reason fairly easily.

I had another patch that was more trying to imitate a slightly similar sound used on "Water From a Vine Leaf" (the cut-off moves around more).

Hope that's of some help. It is definitely worth having a play around with the presets you have, because once you understand what effect the parameters have you can personalise them a bit and even make your own patches. (I teach in a college, I spend a lot of time showing students how to make Skrillex-like sounds).

Awakening a very old thread here, sorry, but just wanted to say thanks to Luftrum for this:

For the preset I used a Dual VCO with oscillator sync, some cross modulation, a 24db LP filter with high res and some keyfollow. I guess most characteristic about the sound, is the heavy synced delay. The preset is called 'The Procyon Beach' and is included in Luftrum 9:

The description works like a charm on pretty much all synths I tried it with! Ob-xd + a delay sounded really good actually, just like on Frozen/Pure Shores
