MODERAT - A New Error (Prophet REV2 Synth Cover)

video upload by nicola neeco

"For this drumless and dawless version of this amazing track by Moderat I challenged myself to do it only with my beloved REV2.

The repeating notes and the pumping/sidechain effect of the bass patch are only made with two LFOs:
- one is assigned to the cutoff, Rev Saw wave, clock sync, key sync (to imitate a sequencer)
- the other is assigned to the VCA Env Amt, Saw wave, amt 127, clock sync, key sync. the Env Amt in the Amp section must be set to zero (for the sidechain/like effect)
- Then I used the ENV3 to add some attack. destination: VCA Env Amt. envelope: zero attack, very short decay.
- to add the "snare" I used the gate sequencer: I set a 2 step sequence in key step mode and I set the second step to add a burst of white noise

(no compressors or others plugins added to make the sidechain effect, only some eq and reverbs)

I made these patches from scratch.

Gear used:
Sequential Prophet REV2 (8 Voices)
