I am obsessed with this pad. You see her here using a Prophet but I don't think it's that, is it? It's the grit I love (and the detune). Gets really prominent in the mix at about 7.30

She uses it elsewhere too.

I love this whole set.

No, I mean the pad - a grainy detuned string / vox sound. I'm obsessed with it.

I'd like to know too.
Her performance (not the pad) at the start sounds similar to this, by Arksun, especially at 2:00 mark.

It's in the OP - 7.30 into that linked video it starts getting really prominent.

By the way Im a dumb-ass and never saw that you mentioned 7:30 in the OP

here i explain how to get close
RC20 after this would make it extra lo-fi sounding

A good free alternative = Lofi Oddity - Degradation toy box

Wow, thanks for doing this! Fantastic job. My ear caught the detune - perhaps a bit more randomness there - but god - just the white noise makes such a difference. So simple. And yeah a tiny bit of bitcrush too.

It looks like the original is a Prophet 08 patch, I found this video where she's playing it live - a fantastic section around 46'30 where she's playing it solo - there is another layer in there a kind of soft tinkly thing, I don't know if that's part of the patch or being triggered elsewhere.

The grit when she goes down low is awesome. She clearly loves this patch, it appears everywhere in her stuff.

Could you try the bass arp at 2:01 in this one too?

It is a pretty simple sound (as the best often are) with a slow Tremolo and pushing into some Drive, probably useing the post-drive filter to minimize the apparent splat so it feels warm.

It may also be the chords and of course the harmony with the piece too.

It seems to me that what you're looking for is quite close to this sound.

It's a preset for the U-he Repro 5 " 01 Solar System" made by Anton Anru, taken from a small collection that can be found for free on the U-he website.
It's easy to modify it to better suit your needs.
