Da Funk Lead with MS-20 mini

Published on Aug 13, 2018 0th

"The lead from Daft Punk's Da Funk is one of my favorite synth sounds ever. After getting a Korg MS-20 mini, I decided to have a go making it. I hope you like the results.

My first step was to dive deep into the internets and see if anyone else has tried. Of course many people have made awesome videos. My issue with those videos is that when I tried the same settings, my MS-20 mini didn't sound quite the same as their videos or when comparing to Da Funk. I think this could be for a number of reasons, the biggest is probably because my MS-20 mini isn't a vintage MS-20.

The video shows all the knob settings and cable connections in detail, please try it yourself!

So here are a number of things I did differently from videos and other online sources. (mainly added just so that if I try to make this sound again, I can!)

1. Oscillator one on a lot of examples is a saw tooth, but I found that the sounds ends up being a bit thin, so I made it a pulse wave with about a 30% pulse width (60% knob position).
2. Oscillator two on lot of examples is tuned to a fourth or something else. I felt like that setting didn't go high enough, so I ended going up 2 octaves up from osc one.
3. My filter and envelope two settings seemed close to most other examples I found.
4.From the main signal out, a patch cord is routed to the external processor signal in. This is absolutely necessary to give the sound that distinctive bite. Then from there, the output of the MS-20 comes out of the external signal processor out.
5. When A/B comparing Da Funk's lead to mine, my MS-20 was still sounding too clean. So I routed the pink noise into the VCA. Control input was the mod wheel and the output of the VCA was sent to the external signal in. I turned the pink noise down just enough to not notice it.
6. Portamento on the pitch wasn't enough and to me it sounds like the pitch bends a bit. So I routed the EG-1 reverse out to the freq input and bumped up the frequency mod knob for EG1/EXT just a bit to keep the pitch from feeling a little flat.
7. After getting the rest of the settings as perfect as I could, when I compared the original to mine, it sounded like it was being run through an external filter. Like after the attack, the cutoff frequency was going low, but if I recreated going low with the MS-20 mini cutoff it did not behave the same way. So I ran it through an external filter (Moogerfooger MF-101). I grabbed the EG-1 positive out and used that to modulate the external filter cutoff. Perhaps a vintage MS-20 doesn't need this or my other hacks to get the sound as close as I could. . .

That's it! Enjoy!"

Behringer MS-101 In Pre-Production

via Uli Behringer on Gearslutz:

"Here is a quick update.

We're now in pre-production with the MS-101. It took longer than we anticipated as we're running our factory at near maximum capacity.

Pre-production means we're now producing around 50 units to ensure everything is in order. Provided we don't find any issues, mass production will then commence a month later, which would be January.

Thanks for your patience.

Uli"

Pharmasonic Model 101

Reasons to love your Pharmasonic 101 video upload by Tokyo-Noise

1. Fully reproduce the sounds of Roland System 100 Model 101.

2. There’s something about white synths.

3. PWM, noise, glide.

4. Timbrality. OMG those filters and VCO.

5. Sub oscillator 0, -1, -2 octaves.

6. HPF.

7. DIY.

8. Price: with the hype of new synths every month/week, prices for this serie have dropped down. I’m thinking if I should also get the 102 (ring modulator and S&H instead of noise and portamento).

Regarding timbre, my favorite mono synths are: Roland SH series and Arps, followed by Dreadbox, Sequential Circuits, Oberheim SEM, miniKORG 700 and Moogs. Korg MS 20 is a little bit “nasal” for my taste but the architecture is awesome.

"The Pharmasonic 101 really exists and it sounds great. It's a faithful reproduction of Roland System 100 Model 101.

I bought it fully assembled from Pharmasonic this year (2023) and it's only been tested and used for a couple of recordings. Since Pharmasonic seems to be making it again along with the 102 for the Japanese market, I'm selling this hoping I can get another one soon.

- VCO
- VCF
- VCA
- LFO
- ADSR
- Mixer
- Noise
- Glide / Portamento
