For those of you that build your sounds either from scratch or by tweaking factory patches
I thought a thread where folks share their challenging sound recreations for cover songs would be helpful.
How you worked through the process, what instruments/vsts did you use, layers, tricks, unique approaches, sonic discoveries, etc.
Any and all sound engines/brands/keyboards are welcomed.
I can start.
This week I had to woodshed a couple country songs that had banjo riffs in them (She's Country, and Save a Horse). I always start by searching programs and combis on the Kronos, but the two Banjo patchs were kinda lame. I built a common Combi for the two songs but just wasn't happy with the banjo samples. On a fluke I was browsing through my Korg Collection M1 VST (that I never use) and found a killer Banjo patch. I layered that in with the Kronos banjo's and really love the mix.
Now if I can just get my fingers to play the right picking pattern... 🤥🙄
