Metallic sounds on subtractive synths (Yamaha EX5)

video by Floyd Steinberg

"I got some comments and mails recently asking how to create metallic sounds. As I've already done a video on how to do that on an FM synth, here's an attempt at doing something similar on a subtractive synth. Table of contents below. If you want to know more on this subject, please read https://www.soundonsound.com/techniqu...​ and it's follow-ups. The more oscillators and filter types your synth can throw at you, the better the result!

00:00​ hello
01:16​ oscillator setup (square waves)
01:47​ tuning oscillators
02:34​ applying high pass filters
04:16​ applying band pass filters
06:27​ amp envelopes for higher frequency oscillators
08:10​ amp envelopes for lower frequency oscillators
09:24​ resulting sound 1
09:50​ adjusting the overall sound by adjusting the volume of the oscillators
10:50​ combining two patches to create a metallic sounding pad
11:35​ resulting sound 2
12:09​ bye-bye"

Passage of Days (Music Video)

video by Runningonair

"I recently found out that my old school was closed in 2009 and knocked down in 2015. I left in 1983 and although I have many mixed feeling about the place, I found it terribly sad to see it reduced to such a sorry state. I didn't write this piece specifically for this project, but it does capture much of that feeling.

Many thanks to Simon Kelly for the use of the photos."
