Help: searching for a sound...

[Tom Crowning]

...actually for two.

In the short sample below there's a deep synthesizer sound at the
beginning, later some very compressed drums.

Do you know a library/softsynth that has a similar synthesizer sound?

Same for the drums, or a plug that modifies a clean drum sound in the
same way. I've already tried a combination with eq and compressor but
wasn't THAT happy with the result.

Thanks in advance for any information.
Tom

Listen to sample (http://www.tom-crowning.com/pub/music/misc/Seq.m3u)
.
Edit: link changed, should work now. Reason: see next posting.

Oops, sorry about that, my webspace provider's site seems to be
hacked, grrr.

I have uploaded the file to a different server now, see

Thanks for listening.

Tom, those sounds are fairly standard fare on most synths. The bass is probably an analog sawtooth wave with the cutoff filter turned way down (or it could be a straight sine wave, but I doubt it).
The pad on top is a standard pad - pretty much anything should have that.

As for the drums, different synths/loops have all kinds of different ways of getting that sound. If you want to use real drums, use your pitchbend and pitch those suckers way up. Then process them as you see fit.

I would go for a fully programmable synth (so you can get exactly what you want). Wusikstation, Korg Legacy Digital Edition, and so forth are good choices - even FruityLoops (and its addons).

Hope this helps,

Thanks a lot for this info, Brian.
Especially the use of pitchbend for the drums is something I wouldn't
have thought of.
Have a nice weekend.
