Recreate Moog Sound from Steven Wilson's Regret #9

Hello there!
I was wondering if you could help me to recreate a synth sound from this song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwZBDKX6Pwc
Specifically the really low, grumbling one right at the beginning (0:05) and the one following in the synth solo right after (at 0:19).
In the live performance, he used a Moog Voyager to play that part. I tried some things with Native Instruments Monark, Massive and Reaktor but I never achieved a sound quite like that.
Maybe you can give me some inputs on that - it doesn't sound too complicated but I'm realtively new to programming synths. Thanks

However he did it, it sounds great. I just like that song, pretty cool!
I don't have a Voyager or a Minimoog, but I do have a Sub Phatty. AFAIK from that YouTube audio, it sounds very smooth/warm, like there probably is no "drive" added into it.

Feedbackish effect? What do you mean by that? There is detuned saws through a resonant lowpass filter, sweeping, some drive/saturation distortion.
Very seventies/early eighties (and still a great sound).
A similar lead can be heard on Gandalf - To Another Horizon (1983)
Gandalf - March of No Reason (Including "The Falling Star")

Sounds great, too, same style but IMHO different. By "feedbackish" I mean that the sound turns into metallic screaming sometimes, but it does not sound like simple filter resonance to me, like at 1.19 to 1:21.

Don't forget a little bit of delay.
Adam Holzman used a Moog Voyager and a Line 6 DL4 Delay on that solo.

Sure. But first of all I had to recognize that the tuning modulation of the synced osc ist the key for that blending metallic sound. Mission accomplished. Thank you all.....again..

I think those sounds could be a Prophet-5, especially the sync lead.
Try Prophanity.
https://www.robersonaudio.com/
MinimogueVA from another software company could do the bass sound. Prophanity could do the sync.
If the sync sounds Moogish, it could be a Moog Prodigy or even a Pro One.
For Prodigy there’s Model Pro by Elektrostudio.

The sync sounds like it has 2 saw waves.
Edit: likely a Moog Voyager for those sounds.
MinimogueVA has 3 OSCs and also oscillator sync.

Many paid and free VSTs as well as Kontakt libraries. As well as HW synths/drum machine and acoustic instruments.

I am after what OP was after 6 years ago.Etienne1973 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 14, 2019 3:22 am1st or 2nd example? If 1st one (Steven Wilson) then I hear a smooth screaming osc sync lead sound.
What does "a smooth screaming osc sync" mean?

Tuning modulation of the synced osc? What does that mean?
Did you ever manage to get close to Adam's sound?

Hi, not exactly. I just wanted to unterstand the basics of synced oscillation and how to use it. That was just an example.
Modulating the tuning of the synced oscillator alters the sound in a way I would describe as "metallic" or "harsh".

So I need to find a way to synchronize two oscillators but one slightly detuned, is that it?
